Bummer to lose Katy Perry and Ariana Grande, their timelines are both filled with so much wisdom.
HA HA HA HA HA.
Oh, our sides.
That was painful.
Anyway, Glenn Beck had a few choice words for these big babies who can’t accept people who thinks differently from them:
Hey Hollywood lemmings, here’s an idea follow @kanyewest if you like him, his music or find his tweets interesting, funny or informative. You ASSumed that he agreed with your politics he doesn’t agree with ALL of them, you unfollow? Wow, Who’s the fascist now? @KanyeWest https://t.co/D6iLwqY6f8

Ooh, ooh, we know who the fascists are now!
Damn son.
I think it's silly to unfollow someone simply for there political views. I don't like Trump, but I'm not going to unfollow those I know that support Trump. So childish!

Agreed.
This is what I hate on this culture. If someone doesn't agree with your politics, SO WHAT!?!?!?
They can still be great athletes, musucians, actors, celebrities have opinions you don't agree with.

This is not a culture thing, this is a political thing. And a stupid one at that.
Look at this noise:
I would love for @benshapiro and/or @glennbeck to actually explain how unfollowing someone on social media is comparable to a fascist society and/or government.

Maybe Rick missed it, but Democrats have been calling Trump and his supporters fascists for nearly three years. What Glenn is doing is using the Left’s own tactics and words against them …
This guy must be new here.
It's almost as if those people are exercising their right to 1) determine who they choose to endorse|support 2) express their disapproval of someone they otherwise held in a higher esteem.
That you think politics, not tolerance, was a deciding factor, is sheer ignorance.

We bet Derek is big fun at birthday parties.
bruh u don't know what fascism is

K.
Bruh.
Isn't the ability to "unfollow" or "stop purchasing products" from a "business" (in this case, an artist) a FREE MARKET principle? Who's the commie now?

Whataboutism fail, but thanks for trying.
The interesting piece we’re seeing throughout all of the pushback with Kanye is people assuming that he’s somehow ‘changed’ or lost his way, and perhaps he’s always been more right-leaning than he’s let on for just this reason …
