Kanye West Is Forcing Liberals To Check Their Artistic Privilege

Of all the weird fallout that’s come from Kanye West announcing his love for Donald Trump on Twitter, the reaction that perplexes me the most is the idea that sudden knowledge of his political opinions has rendered his music bad. Here’s a tweet from Democratic activist Scott Dworkin that’s pretty representative of the general sentiment:

I will never buy another @kanyewest album ever again. I think this publicity stunt of his support for Trump is downright despicable. Kanye can go to hell.— Scott Dworkin (@funder) April 26, 2018
