Kanye ‘Ye’ West sparked outrage on Sunday morning with what might be his most offensive social media post to date – a snap of a Ku Klux Klan robe captioned: ‘Outfit of the day.’ The distinctive white robe topped with a pointed hood was designed to conceal KKK members’ identities and became infamous after being seen in D. W. Griffith’s $100M-grossing 1915 film, The Birth of a Nation.

During the 1920s, the robes provided the main financing for the Protestant-led white supremacist, far-right hate organization – which amassed 8M members violently opposing Jews, Black people, Catholics, and Southern/Eastern European immigrants. The Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) estimated that there were ‘at least 29 separate, rival Klan groups currently active in the United States’ as of 2017.

Over on X, the reaction was swift and horrified with user @S2M0NEY tweeting: ‘Ku Klux Kanye.’ X user @Adventure_Nero posted a meme of Clayton Bigsby, the blind white supremacist character who doesn’t realize he’s African-American, that Dave Chappelle introduced on his Comedy Central series back in 2003.

Kanye ‘Ye’ West sparked outrage on Sunday morning with what might be his most offensive social media post to date – a snap of a Ku Klux Klan robe captioned: ‘Outfit of the day’ ‘You’re dressing as a ghost because your career is dead?’ X user @AltcoinGordon scoffed. X user @heisbiodun poked fun of the dirty door frame in the canceled 47-year-old’s snap with the caption: ‘Billionaire in dollars?’ ‘Kanye fans running out of ways to defend him,’ X user @PudgyWhal3 tweeted.

X user @DerPamphletist posted a Simpsons meme of ‘0 days without Ye ranting about Jews’ with the caption: ‘I think that counts! Back to 0, Ye!’

X user @his4Everz posted an illustration of Ye – who suffers from a form of autism – sporting a MAGA cap reading: ‘Make Kanye take his meds.’

And X user @TeslaAIBot tweeted a snap of 50 Cent glaring at West with the caption: ‘No.’

Over on Instagram, user @pkellss commented: ‘Someone hit ctrl + alt + delete and restart Kanye please.’ ‘Is someone gonna tell him he’s black?’ Instagram user @dopamemequeen asked. Instagram user @adriiq0 lamented: ‘I miss the old Kanye…’

‘What would [your late mother] Donda think of this Ye?’ Instagram user @clubst4r asked

Ye – who boasts 69.2M social media followers – tweeted on X last Thursday: ‘This next album got that anti-Semitic sound. My new sound called anti-Semitic’

West – who still averages 66.3M monthly listeners on Spotify – was referring to his 11th studio album, Bully, which reportedly drops on June 15

The same day as his cross-burning KKK tribute, the 24-time Grammy winner also Instastoried a screengrab of his text exchange with his former choirmaster Jason White announcing the return of his Sunday Service sessions on March 16 ‘What would [your late mother] Donda think of this Ye?’ Instagram user @clubst4r asked.

The American Jewish Committee referred Dailymail.com to a statement in which they acknowledged the 24-time Grammy winner’s ‘anti-Jewish hatred’ in his social media posts – and the ‘dangerous influence they can have on his millions of followers, particularly on social media, where a significant portion of today’s antisemitism thrives.’ Said the AJC: ‘Hate, left unchecked, only multiplies. At a time when antisemitism is skyrocketing to terrifying levels worldwide, Ye is actively endangering Jews. We urge others with a platform like Ye’s – particularly in the entertainment industry – to call out this blatant hatred.’ The same day as his cross-burning KKK tribute, Ye also Instastoried a screengrab of his text exchange with his former choirmaster Jason White announcing the return of his Sunday Service sessions on March 16.
