there are actual functional/closeted racists operating in mainstream circles that stay away from the alt right because they dont wanna be stained/tarnished by the association.

and kanye just comes along like 'nah these folks are cool. theyre just free thinkers' lol.

dude basically just gave them the donald trump 'nice people too' voucher in a more subtle but impactful way. because you cant call ye racist since hes black (which is why the right likes black attack dogs like candace owens). and while trump was redundantly signaling to people like himself/them, kanye is helping to normalize them to a much larger and unaware/unsuspecting audience.

this is what a lot of people dont get. its part of broader/complex radicalization pathway.

like that quebec mosque shooter who killed 6 muslims. they looked at his social media interactions and its heavily dominated by alt right, fox news, infowars, breitbart, and ben shapiro (like an alt right 80s easy listening station lol).

these folks arent telling their followers to go out and kill muslims. but the constant vitriol, gaslighting, dehumanizing, and fear mongering leads to inciting someone to act violently towards people they are convinced are existential threats to their life and culture.

and now ye is basically cold calling and soft selling their propaganda to fresh potential leads like an introductory box set.
