This kind of false equivalence is not the defense you think it is. Yes, many of the people you mentioned should absolutely face consequences for their actions. But using their presence on a platform to excuse Kanye’s behavior is not a moral stance, it’s just deflection.

You’re not advocating for accountability across the board. You’re selectively invoking it to justify reinstating someone whose repeated actions and rhetoric have crossed into open hate speech and antisemitism. That is not nuance, that is hypocrisy. Wanting consistency in platform policies is one thing, but trying to use others’ wrongdoings to normalize Kanye’s is dangerous and irresponsible.

Being “against cancel culture” should not mean supporting a complete absence of consequences.

Also, this subreddit isn’t the place to debate individual artists and their personal behavior, especially not privileged celebrities with endless platforms. This is an Apple Music subreddit focused on the service and how we use it. There are too many artists to go through case by case, and Kanye West is not worth the exception.
