Ye, also known as Kanye West, has released a controversial new single on Elon Musk's X platform, despite being banned from most other social media for antisemitic content. The track features references to Nazi terminology and visuals, including a swastika-inspired artwork. While major platforms took swift action to ban the song, it still gained millions of views, indicating challenges big tech companies face in curbing the spread of offensive content. The wide sharing of the song across social networks raises questions about the effectiveness of content moderation guidelines.
Ye's new single, despite being banned on major platforms, remains accessible on X with millions of views, showing a lack of decisive action against hate speech.
The single's lyrics and artwork are controversial, featuring Nazi symbols and references to Hitler, prompting action from platforms like Spotify and YouTube post-release.
West's repeated bans from X for antisemitic content highlight a growing concern around the difficulty of managing offensive material on social media.
Even with restrictions in place, Ye's content still circulates widely due to its provocative nature and the artist's celebrity status.
