On Thursday, Kanye West admitted “I like Hitler” with his face covered with a balaclava in an interview with conspiracy theorist Alex Jones on “Infowars”.
Jones questioned the rapper’s support for Hitler and Nazism, to which West responded that the Nazi leader had “good” qualities before concluding with “I like Hitler”.
The rapper denied that Hitler’s Nazi Germany killed 6 million Jews as “factually incorrect.” In Germany, statements denying the Holocaust is illegal.
On Friday, Twitter suspended West’s account for “incitement to violence,” after it recently reinstated a number of banned profile’s, including West’s in the name of “free speech”.
West also posted a picture of a swastika merged with the Star of David on Twitter before his account was suspended.
