Social media platform rebranded as X lifts ban on rapper-producer imposed after swastika tweet
Kanye West’s account on the social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, has been reinstated almost eight months since he tweeted an image of a swastika blended with a star of David.
The rapper-producer and designer, legally known as Ye, embarked on a series of antisemitic rants on social media and during interviews towards the end of last year. In October, he tweeted that he would go “death con 3” on Jewish people. His account was subsequently locked, but he was soon readmitted.
