Kanye West is known for his tendency to court controversy. After an eight-month-long ban from Twitter, West has returned. Elon Musk, the owner of Twitter, (now X) calls himself a free speech absolutist. This very much hints toward the suspension being lifted. The ban was imposed when Ye posted a Swastika within the Star of David, sparking outrage and further fueling the ongoing controversy surrounding his actions.

His account had been suspended twice before, once for praising Hitler and once for sharing anti-Semitic content. As fans react to West’s latest return to Twitter, they have resurfaced a 2018 tweet from Kim Kardashian that appears to mock the statement. In the tweet, Kardashian expressed how Twitter greatly improved with West’s presence after a year of hiatus.

Now, as the tweet resurfaces, it adds a twist of irony to the ongoing discourse. Ye’s return on X after an 8-month-long ban comes after he has vowed not to make any anti-Semitic remarks this time, but the uncertainty surrounding the duration of this commitment remains. Following his suspension, the rapper caused a stir by controversially requesting Jewish people to forgive Hitler during a podcast appearance.

It is incidents like these that have left many wary of his Twitter stints. They draw both criticism and concern from the public. In the midst of a heated and controversial row, fans have resurfaced an old tweet from Kardashian playfully mocking it in light of West’s current return to X.

Fans take a dig at the age-old Kardashian tweet on Kanye West

The backlash took an unexpected turn when a user directed their anger toward the SKIMS mogul. They expressed support for West and accused Kardashian of being unhappy with her ex-husband’s happiness alongside his wife, Bianca Censori, in a surprising twist. The unexpected comment sparked a flurry of reactions and left many bewildered by the sudden shift in focus from the original subject of discussion.

Upon his much-anticipated return to Twitter, West faced disapproval from some users who objected to the old 2018 tweet by Kardashian. They were not really in support of West’s return on Twitter.

Amidst the Twitter frenzy, some users injected humor into the situation, playfully suggesting that if it were not for the timestamps, this particular tweet would have undoubtedly blown everyone’s minds. Some humorously jabbed at the smartness of the SKIMS mogul.

Amongst the diverse reactions, there were passionate users who wholeheartedly echoed the sentiments of the 2018 tweet, almost wistfully expressing how much they missed Ye’s presence on Twitter.

Though this tweet may be from the past, it now bears a striking irony in relation to Ye’s controversial comeback on Twitter.
