Kanye West causes controversy again! 🤯 This time Instagram and Twitter have restricted his accounts. Read what happened:
A spokeswoman for Twitter told AFP on Sunday that West’s account was locked due to a violation of the social media platform’s policies.
Instagram also restricted his account, which may involve preventing him from posting, commenting or sending private messages, according to the same source. The restrictions come after West, a Black artist who now goes by Ye, stirred controversy by wearing a “White Lives Matter” T-shirt during the recent Paris Fashion Week, in a misappropriation of the slogan “Black Lives Matter.”The phrase “Black Lives Matter” became a rallying cry for protests against racism and police brutality sparked by the 2020 murder of George Floyd.
He then said on Twitter that he would target Jewish people in a post that has been blocked by the platform for violating its rules. “Kanye West should figure out how to make a point without using antisemitism,” the organization said.
