Suspended from Twitter
Hours after West appeared on Infowars, the rapper made several posts on his Twitter account that he uses that are controversial in nature, including an image of the Star of David with a swastika in the center.
This has led to Twitter owner Elon Musk suspended West from the platform for 12 hours.
– I have done my best. Yet you again broke our rules against inciting violence. His account will be suspended, Musk writes in one tweets Friday morning.
West’s blatantly anti-Semitic messages were then replaced with a message that the statements violated the platform’s regulations.
– This account has been blocked due to a violation of Twitter guidelines, a Twitter spokesperson tells Buzzfeed.
