Had to look up Joe Rogan's height after seeing Kanye was taller.

5"6. That's crazy, never knew.

Interested to see if Rogan can get Kanye to be specific about any sorts of policies he would implement. He’s been quite vague from what I’ve seen but he can’t keep that up for three hours...you’d hope not anyway.

Kanye says that Bruce Lee and Brandon Lee were both murdered. Joe corrects him and explains the details. Kanye seems distraught over being contradicted.

Ye’s in a massive reality distortion bubble where no one pushes back against his nonsense.

Obsessed with deaths of several celebs that were natural but he believes were conspiracy murders to take down innovators like him. Paranoid delusions.

not sure if cult

He 100% sees himself as a Christ-like savior or at minimum a prophet, and the newfound religiosity is a way for him to have more direct influence over people and inflate his ego to new heights. He talks about lowering himself to the office of President of the United States as if it’s massively beneath him but that it’s his God-given destiny, and how he tells other people what to do via God speaking through him.

Oh boy.

Oh boy.
But is he a cult leader if he isn't manipulating someone into having sex with him

30:00. Now he’s talking about the Christian Academy for kids he’s building. He wants the academy to be like the ancient city of Masada, with aqueducts and powered by water.

He says kids need to be taught physics and be treated like adults in case their parents all die, which is why His City is “powered by the four elements: earth, wind, water, and fire.”

Okay fine, I'll watch this lol.

His Jedi Academy will be powered by steam engines connected to solar panels, even though solar panels are evil because they’re related to Thomas Edison and not Nikolai (sic) Tesla.

Aside from the physics of earth, wind, water, and fire, children will also learn farming and cooking, and be part of “fully sustainable communities.”

I’ll just add to the Rogan height discussion before giving this a listen:

he’s shockingly short. I’m 6’2 and when I saw him live I couldn’t believe how short he was. He’d still kick my ass I’m sure, but he’s a manlet

Listening to this...it's just easier to call the guy a piece of shit than to mock any individual thing he says. He's an arrogant, insane, prick.

At his compound, they'll be completing the unfinished works of Tesla and Da Vinci in order to produce a fully sustainable ecosystem for people to live in through the Donda philosophy. Covid has helped accelerate his plans.

Cities are designed to keep people apart, stuck in traffic. His way of living will bring people happiness. "We're at this paradigm shift in existence."

He's against the concept of money. "When you unprogram yourself you see there are other forms of currency now." For example, relationships. People living at his compound will presumably be freed from monetary constraints. "Like the end of Tron where everything lights up." He adds, "God is using me, this is my calling."

You know, I'm listening to this right now 30 minds in and I hesistate to use the word crazy. He seems to have very ambitious goals and dreams, but he doesn't come off as manipulative or deranged.

Just really passionate about what he believes in.

30 is where it gets good. :lollipop_downcast_sweat:

Hey Evil, are you just fucking around and making stuff up on the fly, or are these things he's actually saying!?

This is all what he's actually saying.

It’s a lot easier to understand the forced hospitalization now. Frankly, he should be in regular sessions with a psychiatrist. Doubly so, with that level of money and power to sabotage himself and others.

46 min: "Is Ye crazy? Is Ye narcissistic? Is Ye a maniac? Is Ye self-absorbed? No. Ye know who Ye is. I know who I am. And I'm not fin...fin to bow to an idea that you wanna have of me. I am going to be the full idea that God has of me. And when I do things that God don't like, I'm being the lesser version of me."

I'm in the third hour, I need to hear a super cut of this cause this is Alex Jones levels of going on tangents. He just said he wants to buy Universal because he's the next Michael Jordan of products. :messenger_tears_of_joy:
Not knocking the guy, this is entertaining.

(49 minutes into rant) "When I talk, it's not a rant. It's a symphony of ideas."


Ye: "I just tell the truth, and telling the truth is crazy in a world full of lies. That's simply it--"

Joe: "But none of the things you're saying are crazy."

Joe: "Being labeled 'manic,' right? Like we talked before, and you were saying that they had you on medication, but the medication fucked with your creativity, it fucked with all kinds of things."

Ye: "It blocked my ability to channel what God wanted me to do. But we're all on medication right now. Did you use toothpaste with fluoride today?"

Kinda interesting that when Rogan asked him what medication he was on, the most specific thing he's asked, Kanye didn't know. Luckily I've never had to go on any sort of medication for mental health but the people I know who have could tell you exactly what it was. I'm not trying to make any specific point with that as to why that's the case, but he seems to struggle if he's asked something where he can't just go off on wild tangents.

"One of my favorite things that they did is they put me on this medication that made me gain a lot of weight. And I said, 'I'm not gonna take this.' And they said, 'okay, we got a medication you can take where you won't gain weight.' And this shows you they were trying to kill a superhero. Slowly, trying to kill genius. Trying to make me *not* feel like I could run for President."

So the medication was working, then.
