No, people were just right about him all along.

>obviously he generates clicks and he's nothing if not
>entertaining

What about this is "entertaining"?
Noteworthy, I get, given his stature.
But what's the entertainment value?

>but at this point it's WAY past indefensible. He's nuts and
>he's doing harm. I think for a long time people overreacted to
>this guy but there's no denying he's genuinely toxic now.

No, he's always been toxic. ALWAYS.

It's just that his gaggle of stans, sycophants, and enablers are running out of excuses, pleas, deflections, and explanations.

That's all it is.

The supposed "overreactions" have always been people just calling him the fucking spade he always was.
The way he's turned on some of his biggest and most loyal supporters bears this out.

His stans could only "BUT BUT BUT DONDA DIED WHAT IF YOUR MOM DIED" his antics for so long.

You know what else happened?

He gained more success. More fame. More influence. More power. More status. More money.



All of that fed his gargantuan, out of control ego.

He's a fucking spoiled brat that has the fuck you money, and, even now, the support, to say and do whatever the fuck he goddamn well pleases.

He thinks he's too big to fail, and he's living a twisted version of a Powerball daydream.

Nobody "overreacted" to him. They just saw him for who and what he was. The end.

(anyone): Goddamn, this guys ego is on 11. What a douchebag

(Ye fans, for fucking years): der he's just trolling lulz, u just don't understand marketing geniuses like him, derrrp it's not that deep u just don't get him

^^^^that right there is the template for damn near every exchange about the guy, since he fucking dropped.

All this situation does, is *continue* to prove that the critics have always been right, and the stans have always beentoo clouded by their fandom to recognize, accept, and acknowledge what has been clear as day since he's uttered a single word in an interview.

>I do think it's incumbent on media to leave him alone. But
>that won't happen.

Fuck that. He's getting the attention he's begging for.

Why does the media have to step in to stop covering him?
Why should the media leave him alone? Are they stalking him, or is he feeding them?
He's the one creating this attention. Not the media.

You know who needs to step in?

Fucking Kanye. Or someone who loves him, to get him the help he needs.
