Kanye’s comments opened up the door for a conversation people aren’t ready to have yet.

[honeyblu]

Candace Owens husband was the CEO of Parler. That's wassup

[konnen]

Once musk buys twitter, him and Ye can merge the sites.

It will be called Yeeter.

[Philserino]

Heck yeah. I’m signing up for this app. Let’s go YE 🔥

[joecasey]

Organized Jewry is canceling Kanye. Let's all support him

I may not be a Kanye West fan, and I used to have no respect for the man. I am man enough to admit that I underestimated him, and I watched his interview with Tucker Carlson. He clearly has thought out a great many things, and while he still seems a little full of himself and occasionally get it wrong, he does make many good points, especially about free speech. I'm willing to extend him some respect, because he seems like someone who may be trying to help. We need that.

[Droppin_Deuces_On_Ya]

This is how you beat the people he tweeted about. Now his music wont be cancelled lol!

[thebigeazye]

"Free speech is an inalienable right." 100% agree with Ye's quote 1:50

[timjones]

Go get them parlor We are behind you 100%

[gilbertayala]

Yup...
Signing up with Parler...
Now...👍👍👍

I'm old enough to remember when MySpace seemed unstoppable. Then Facebook passed it. Right now, YouTube is dominant, but it's getting some competition from Odysee and Rumble. Now Parler, and Musk might buy Twitter. So Gen Z, make a note of this day.

"app ‘needs Ye in many ways’" and so does George's wallet apparently.

[aprilnewton]

This is exactly what we need in this country. Truthful media

[ziggyslounge]

Pretty exciting stuff happening as far as social media platforms. Praying it will be a better atmosphere for all people.

[lizbutton]

I think its a great idea. Ye will bring new ideas. And a lot of new people. 👍

[geoffreykeating]

Fine line between genius and insanity, Kanye has been playing hopscotch with that line for a long time

Many people on the left call Kenye “crazy” using his mental health issues to put him down. But he is actually smart and savage. Everyone of us go through some forms of mental health issues, it’s just part of our life and we all do crazy stuff sometimes, it’s just it’s not known to the world because we are not famous people. These famous people are like an open book for the world to read, anything they say and do puts them in a bad situations sometimes. Kenye stands for what he thinks is right, just like any other celebrities that uses their platforms to stand for what they think is right and so can Kenye. People need to stop criticizing him or call him crazy. I am glad he is buying this company.

[denisehansen]

Good for you. FU money must be marvelous. I believe both he and Elon will be able to do great things.

[rebeccabrown]

God bless America 🇺🇸 🙏and Ye. This is the best news we've had in quite some time. Praying for huge success 🙌 🙏 💙 ❤️ ✨️

I had no idea he was Candace Owens husband until I read it further down in the comments.
I 've never seen a picture of him and don't know how I missed that. I do remember her saying
he was from Britian I believe, or somewhere abroad. I knew she was married to a white male,
and was just curious what he looked like, and I was surprised. Don't know what I was expecting,
but not him. I'm happy for her that she's got a good man, young child and another on the way.
Family has always been important to her and I've no doubt she's a great mother and her husband
a great father. She's come a long way from the first time she spoke in front of Congress. I was very
impressed by her ever since.
