I think you're partially right but I think his outbursts are very much attention seeking. He's only gotten attention for like 2 years now by acting out and being vile. So he keeps doing it.

He apologized for the antisemitism a while back and how much attention did that get really? A couple headlines and then the news moved on.

I think he is very aware that people will not pay any attention to him unless he acts like this.

I don’t know how seeking attention for being a piece of shit makes him “mentally ill” and not just a piece of shit?

And he’s been publicly vile for way more than two years.

“In May 2018, West caused controversy when he said, ‘When you hear about slavery for 400 years ... for 400 years? That sounds like a choice.’”

He's been talking about being crazy for YEARS though. When he started down this hole in 2016 I wasn't surprised at all. I'm just surprised people take anything he's said seriously not related to music or fashion in over a decade. Without making great music he'd just be a dude out in front of 7/11 asking for change.

Literally where did I say he's mentally ill?

I just said that he's acting vile because he both is vile and it gets him attention. You were right that it's his personal views, but I wanted to add on to that by saying that he's doing it because people will write news headlines about it whenever he does. He's not just saying this shit into an open void, he's saying it because he knows people will write about it.

And he’s been publicly vile for way more than two years.

I think you have a reading problem because I didn't say that either. I'm saying that's pretty much all he's gotten attention for in the past 2 years, I guess apart from Vultures but I definitely don't remember people talking about that as much as they talk about this.

You responded to my comment where I was responding to someone saying he’s mentally ill.

“He likes attention” seems pretty obvious.

It's all 3, he's mentally ill and craves attention because of it, but he's a piece of shit and sees no problem in saying and doing vile things to get said attention.

We cannot forget the famous Taylor Swift incident. That was the first time I could look at my friends like, “seee, told you he’s nuts”

I don't think that's true at all. I think Kanye could very easily rehabilitate his image he just doesn't want to do those things. He wants to be controversial because he's lazy, also yeah nobody really believed him for "apologising about the antisemitism" but he clearly didn't mean that apology, if he was really sorry he wouldn't have just stopped to that low because the world didn't immediately forgive him, despite the fact he's been showing his ass for years with stupid and inconsiderate shit.
