Spotify, SoundCloud and other platforms have pulled the song, but its spread underscores the challenges tech platforms face in removing content that violate their policies.
Spotify, SoundCloud and other tech platforms have worked to remove a new song from Ye that praises Adolf Hitler, but the song and its video have continued to proliferate online including across X, where it has racked up millions of views.
On various mainstream and alternative tech platforms this week, Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, has been able to share his latest song, titled “Heil Hitler,” along with its companion title, “WW3,” which similarly glorifies Hitler, the architect of the Holocaust.
While some platforms have taken steps to attempt to pull down the song, others have seemingly let it spread freely.
Well, 90% of people like Hitler anyway, so I doubt he will face any consequences.
The fuck?!
This “joke” didn’t really land
It isn’t a joke. I met a lot of people, who would actually like to reopen concentration camps (or it’s just my local community).
Man, your local community needs to get reeducated.
It is false that 90% of the people you’ve met like Hitler.
Well, I’m exaggerating, but the number is rising.
It’s not even a majority of people.
