Kanye West goes all in on Taylor Swift misinformation

Someday, Taylor Swift will spend some of her billion-plus dollars and sue Kanye West. Or maybe she will not stoop to his level and be able to ignore someone intentionally trying to draw attention to themselves by disrespecting someone else. Ye has seemingly stolen from Swift before but wants to spread hate further.

Regarding the theft, West reportedly called Swift in 2016 to ask for permission to use her name in a new song. The pop queen said no. West used it anyway. He is all class, you see. (Not really.)

On Thursday, West (or Ye, as he wants to be called), decided to try to go for some kind of tweet record by how many he could produce in a short amount of time. He seemingly had no idea what the actual record was or how many tweets he had sent, as he kept tweeting out asking for those numbers. He is obviously not the most linear-thinking individual.

Kanye West cannot seem to quit the Taylor Swift hate

As part of his tweetstorm, he brought up Taylor Swift and likely committed libel against her. Of course, social media, and especially X/Twitter, can be a cesspool of the worst of humanity, so West will probably not be forced by Elon Musk to take the tweets down, but maybe Swift's attorneys could get involved.

Among what West said about Swift was that she did something with Justin Bieber and Harry Styles, but that Styles and Bieber did not call West to join in. If this was some joke by West, it certainly wasn't funny to many, mainly himself. The problem is that many people take what they read at face value, and West should know this.

Of course, he did add that what he tweeted was "100 percent true." Some might suggest he doth protest too much.

Sadly, the rapper (or whatever he does now) does appear to have issues finding some attention. Swift probably will stay above the fray as it is not her style to lower herself to haters. One wonders if West might say the same things he tweets about Swift in front of the performer and her boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.
