Like him or not, Kanye West thinks for himself, and members of the liberal left were none too happy with him over the weekend when he expressed his “love” for Candace Owens, a conservative black commentator who recently declared that President Donald Trump is the “savior” of the free world.
West tweeted on Saturday, “I love the way Candace Owens thinks.”
As with everything West does, the tweet immediately garnered attention – including from Owens, who responded that she was “freaking out,” before crediting West as an inspiration.
I'm freaking out. @kanyewest ….please take a meeting with me. I tell every single person that everything that I have been inspired to do, was written in your music.
I am my own biggest fan, because you made it okay. I need you to help wake up the black community. https://t.co/Uz1nB9K0Oz

Owens also responded to media coverage of West's tweet, clarifying that she's not “far right.”
Far right? Allow me to clarify: I believe the black community can do it without hand-outs. I believe the Democrats have strapped us to our past to prevent us from our futures. And I won't stop fighting until all black Americans see that.
I'm not far right—I'm free. pic.twitter.com/wtqCuYPtM2

However, no matter what Owens says, liberals think they have her pegged – and they just couldn't believe that West would publicly show support for someone like her.
Candace Owens has proven to be anti-Black, anti-LGBTQ and fact-hating.
(Honestly, there are so many more descriptors.)
For Kanye to align himself with her is messy and dangerous.

How many times can Kanye signal his affinity for people with anti-Black policies and positions before it takes a toll on how Black fans feel about him?

The good thing about Candace Owens is she helps us to identify potential white supremacists..Because when you see people cosigning her scripted talking points, it's safe to suspect that they are white supremacists

Bruh. This is so disturbing. This says more about you than her.
For those that don't know Candace Owens thinks Donald Trump is a savior. https://t.co/QH1L1gj4Wi

As I've said many times before, if I had no dignity I would be a very rich man by now. Candace Owens is making money off of denigrating black folks for her mostly white audience. Same as that Noir guy, same as Stacey Dash, same as Allen West etc. https://t.co/ljA5kgvcS1

look, I'm a huge fan of letting ppl enjoy whatever art/artists they like–we don't have to agree and I don't feel a need to insult others' faves b/c I don't see it for them
but when they cross over into doing harm? Yeahhhhh Kanye continues to DISGUST me frfr

The hatred for Owens, and other black conservatives, among the black community, is just unreal. For whatever reason, liberals seem to believe that if you're black you HAVE to be a liberal Democrat, and any thought to the contrary makes you a race-denier.
But West at least has one high-profile supporter:
Here's to people who think for themselves!
Share this if you think all Americans should be able to support whomever they please, regardless of race!
