Ye's association with Nick Fuentes and Milo Yiannopoulos sends a message to his fans that could get people killed.

He's having a very intense public meltdown and he's fallen in with Fuentes and Milo, which I guess is forming the brain trust for his 2024 presidential campaign/slash publicity stunt. There may be a mental health component to this, but ultimately, I'm not in the business of infantilizing Ye, and he's entered a space where, manic episode or not, what he's doing is going to get people killed. Ye is one of the biggest rappers of the past couple decades and has a gigantic fan base. When he does something like endorse Nick Fuentes or Milo and publicly associate with them and take them along to meet with Trump, that sends a message to his fans. It's really depressing to imagine the number of people who would never have heard of Nick lest for this association.
