Kim Kardashian condemns Kanye West’s ‘hate speech’: Anti-Semitism is ‘never OK’


Kim Kardashian slammed hate speech, saying it’s “never OK or excusable” amid her ex-husband Kanye West’s ongoing anti-Semitic rants.

“I stand together with the Jewish community and call on the terrible violence and hateful rhetoric towards them to come to an immediate end,” she wrote on her Instagram Story Monday.

Her sisters Khloé Kardashian, Kendall Jenner, Kylie Jenner and her mom, Kris Jenner, also shared matching statements to their own social media condemning anti-Semitism.

“I support my Jewish friends and the Jewish people,” they shared in posts on Monday.

Kim’s support for the Jewish community comes amid the mounting backlash her ex-husband is facing after he repeatedly made anti-Semitic comments.

Adidas put its partnership with West “under review” after he debuted “White Lives Matter” T-shirts at Paris Fashion Week earlier this month, but the company has yet to publicly comment on his rants.

Despite the backlash, West has continued to reinforce his anti-Semitic comments and even inspired hateful people to hang a sign that read, “Kanye is right about the Jews” on a highway overpass in Los Angeles over the weekend.

West told Morgan Wednesday that he is “absolutely not” sorry for the threatening tweet.

“I fought fire with fire. I’m not here to get hosed down. That’s a different type of freedom fighter,” the rapper told the talk show host.
