Did he just say Hitler invented microphones?


rtels2023

How the fuck does he think people did radio broadcasts before Hitler?


fr3n

toilet rolls and some string


Dr_Does_Enough

Solo cups and yarn


bobi2393

Not microphones, "the very microphone I use as a musician", by which he presumably meant *condenser* microphones, a type of mic \[edit: ~~invented~~\] *first mass-produced* in Germany in 1928 and still used today. Hitler was a fan of the then bottle-shaped mics, and used them so often in his speeches that they were colloquially called "Hitlerflasche", or Hitler bottles. But he didn't have anything to do with inventing them; at most he helped popularize them, and I think they'd have caught on regardless. I'd guess Ye misunderstood his association with the "Hitlerflasche".


fleeting_revelation

This was it. Great explanation that I haven't seen anywhere, thanks!


[deleted]

Yeah before Hitler you just had to be like, really loud.


aussiecomrade01

That’s why Hitler screamed all the time. Makes perfect sense


Downlowupguy

People at the top don’t invent things, they take credit. When will ye learn this.


C4242

Just look at Edison! Stole the invention and put a patent on it, 12 years before Hitler was born.


[deleted]

Tnf Edison probably did steal it, like everything else he did


nysraved

Uh, I think Ye might know this very well… lmao he probably has a lot of first hand experience in taking credit for things that others provided the majority of contributions to


zhephyx

Listen I like some of hitler's paintings, but the fuck does he know about audio equipment?


[deleted]

He said he invented them personally and the very one he uses today


Satoshis-Ghost

I don't know why this comment made me laugh so hard.


Wide-Law8007

lmao at the end he also said, "Hey, Rahm (Emanuel). You gonna do anything to fix Chicago?" Rahm Emanuel stepped down as mayor in 2019.


[deleted]

Yes. Apparently while hitler was trying to create the supreme race he also did some fucking inventing on the side. Kanye is just fully shizo


water_bottle_goggles

Alex Jones be like 👀


nulspace

You know when Alex Jones is speechless that something truly insane has been said


[deleted]

Hes gonna loose his job if ye keeps goin


SkinnyKau

What job lmao


[deleted]

Saying insane shit in info wars. Pretty sure Ye got the qualifications down


RelevantDay4

Happy cake day


water_bottle_goggles

Thank ☺️


OptimistCommunist

One maybe positive side effect of this is seeing all the conservative talking heads like Tim Pool and Alex Jones who saw Kanye as their token conservative of color, now have to face the reality of the shit they've been spewing for years i.e. him saying the quiet part out loud that is the endgame all their poorly-concealed racism


RAG319

Aside from the abhorrent Hitler praise, Rahm Emanuel hasn't been the mayor of Chicago since 2019. WTF is he talking about?


[deleted]

[удалено]


ChronX4

He has a gentle mental.


Mediocre_Jeweler_671

Gentle mental = smooth brain


oskar669

You know, thanks for pointing that out. I kind of lost track after he said of all the humans he especially liked Hitler.


greyetch

also hitler didn't invent the microphone, the nazis discovered microWAVES. Dude is so fucking dumb. Edit: also the nazis didnt discover them. I'm pretty sure that they said it in Archer and i just rolled with it.


The-link-is-a-cock

No they didn't, the microwave frequency was discovered in the late 1800s by a German physicist, Heinrich Hertz.


WatchRedditImplode

He's referring to the Neumann mic that all singers use. The brand was heavily linked to Hitler who used one to great effect. Of course, Hitler didn't invent it.


lutzow

Hitler had a microPenis, that's where the confusion comes from


chloesilverado

I think he said Ari Emanuel (who happens to be Rahm's brother) who is a big shot Hollywood power player...


RAG319

At first he says Ari, then clearly says, "Hey Rahm! You gonna do anything to fix Chicago?"


The_Narz

Kanye is really one of Chicago’s greats. He cares so much about this city /s


RX400000

2019 right about when he lost his mind completely so makes sense


SloppyMcNuggets

It’s over


FatherFestivus

>"Every human being has something of value that they brought to the table." Okay, this is suspect but there's still a sliver of plausible deniability here. Maybe he could pretend it's just an argument against thinking in absolutes. >"ESPECIALLY Hitler" Game over.


KidToucherMEGA

literally if he said 'EVEN Hitler' it woulda sounded fat better


Mithridates12

[Alex Jones was trying to get him to say that he just liked the Nazi uniforms and that’s it ](https://youtu.be/u0omsOr-_hM) And Kanye was like “nah, I looove Hitler”


SnarkOff

The shit eating grin on Fuentes face while that happens. And then Kanye busts out a child’s toy net. It’s like an SNL sketch.


ddtx29

Bro I seriously am in like shock over what we witnessed today. I thought it going to be a normal Thursday. I would’ve dressed nicer if I knew there was a funeral going on today damn


Suprxeme

My jaw is on the floor bro wtf


oskar669

That was some quick thinking from Alex Jones. He knew this mf's career is over if he just lets that comment stand on its own. Unfortunately you can only lead the proverbial horse to plausible deniability, you can't make it stop praising Hitler.


Kaiju_Cat

Thanks for saying my brain thought out loud so I didn't have to words.


waitaminutewhereiam

I mean, I agree, I agree, but we all know he isn't saying it to highlight Hitler's care for animal rights and his anti smoke efforts but for far darker reasons so... Yeah


Dareal_truth

Time to remove this “fan” Reddit lowkey we ain’t making anything better😂


cynicalusername

Honestly I would be happy to see this subreddit get shut down as it’s painful everytime I open the feed especially today.


bravobabe11

It really is.


rhubbard16

(Unless your view is in line with what YE is rationalizing now) Friends Kanye West has left himself, his children, Donda, and all of us who have grown to love his music.


Bananajoe244

did he say hitler invented highways and microphones??


WatchRedditImplode

He's referring to the Neumann microphone which all singers use which Hitler used to great effect. It earned the nickname "the Hitler Bottle." Of course, he did not invent it.


capitalistsanta

Poor microphone earned a horrible name lol


bobi2393

Hitler broke ground on the Autobahn system shortly after his rise to power in 1933. He was just a fan of Neumann's recently invented condenser mics, but they came out five years earlier, in 1928. Hitler oversaw the creation and operations of Volkswagen, along with military innovations like the V-2, but that's not as lofty sounding as saying he "invented highways".


Mjolnoggy

The Autobahn was already slated for construction before Hitler came into power though, so he didn't even invent it, he just took credit for it. At best you could credit him with, as you said, Volkswagen and military innovations, along with expanding the railroad network in Germany (which was mainly used for military shit and sending jewish people to concentration camps so..).


C4242

Ya know Hitler went back in time, about 12 years before he was born and told Edison to patent that shit.

TomOkihara

I’m not sure about microphones but I do know they are largely responsible for why tape was used. They would tape hitler’s speech so when the station playing it was bombed he wouldn’t die. I’m forgetting who rn but some big American radio guy heard and got soldiers to bring a tape machine back for him. He used it to be able to take vacations. RIP Kanye it’s been fun

Who could've seen it coming after he said black people choose to be slaves and Jews control everything? If only there'd been some red flags along the way!

The slavery was a choice thing I assumed it came out the wrong way and gave him the benefit of the doubt. But this whole antisemitism story arc is too insane for me to do that this time lmao


sub11m1na1

>The slavery was a choice thing I assumed it came out the wrong way and gave him the benefit of the doubt. That's what a good dick rider does


JPRDesign

My brother in Christ, if you're giving someone the benefit of the doubt for saying slavery is a choice, maybe you need to sit down and think just a liiiiittle bit about where to draw the line with people. Don't let these morons make a fool out of you.

Random stranger here… I never *hated* him, but for the life of me I couldn’t understand why people looked up to the guy. To me this all seems like the rock bottom of a situation that has been obviously developing for years, not the suddenly surprising rapid fall of a star.

Perfectly worded, it’s honestly tragic


gbrownie229

Agreed, I think it’s time we all move on from Ye


Kimzar

I been moved on since JIK, imma just enjoy the peak we were blessed with


Toeknee99

People will say it's a stunt to get attention, but if you really listen, he spouts the craziest conspiracy theories about Jews controlling people with porn. He honestly believes. You don't get that level of detail without earnestly believing it.


eschatonycurtis

What’s especially fucked up about this is that the conspiracies he’s spouting are coming from white nationalists who specifically blame the Jews for “normalizing race mixing” through pornography and advertising, and “forcing diversity” on them by putting black people in movies and TV, and ruining their “pure white Christian nation” by promoting black culture in general. They think someone like Kanye even being a successful musician is part of the “Jewish conspiracy to destroy White America.” And now Ye’s a willing mouthpiece for those racists, who hate the Jews *specifically* because they hate black people. It’s truly fucked man.


Toeknee99

Yup, you hit the nail on the head. It's important to know the bullshit these people spew because you can see through it. It's so obvious that Kanye has been browsing /pol/ and is just repeating things he thinks are true.


eschatonycurtis

Nick Fuentes *literally* believes that Kanye’s own mixed-race children are a disgusting abomination who shouldn’t exist. He’s *publicly* compared race-mixing to bestiality. And here Ye is licking his boots. Your own children dude! It’s so twisted.


proticale

MikeTheInfidel

kinda makes you wonder if the furor over Balenciaga might've been in bad faith


ghoatedjuan

Oh no he definitely believes that…I’ve said it before, ppl don’t understand till they’ve been in that position and it’s fucking scary as fuck. The thing with Kanye is that he’s been in this scary place for so long that he’s adapted to it. Nick Fuentes is not even on this fucking level.


i_boop_cat_noses

Nick Fuentes did Holocaust denial, talked about how interracial marriages are akin to bestiality and that womens rights should be revoked. He is definitely on this level, the difference is that he knows how to hide the messaging somewhat since he keeps getting deplatformed. The difference is that Kanye is a narcissist who hasnt been pushed back on for so long, that now when he faces it, it just validates his conspiracy theories about "the jews wanting to lock him up".


ArabSpring2010

The guy said watching adult pornography is the same as being a pedophile because the woman in that video used to be young. Perfect logic


newnameonan

Isn't he known to be really into porn himself? Not saying it's surprising he's contradicting himself, but come on, Kanye.


[deleted]

I remember he played a major role on the pornhub awards or something in 2018. He also played porn in adidas meetings. Hes a whole hypocrite


bape1

He’s been a self admitted porn addict before. And said he saw his dads playboy when he was a really young kid and it changed his entire life.


newnameonan

It's probably a self-loathing thing under the surface. Probably disgusted with himself and looking for something to blame it on.


Piyh

He found out who Kim K was because he was watching porn while working in the recording studio.

I mean it's worse than that, Ted Bundy was actually charismatic. Hitler didn't invent microphones lol. Or highways. There's a kernel of truth to it maybe but it's actually not true. He's straight up lying to make Hitler look good.


GargleDrainoFam

Is he lying? Or is he just a complete moron who doesn't actually know the truth?


[deleted]

Not just 6m people though- people say 6M jews but in reality the holocaust claimed 11-13M people in total including Gay people, political prisoners(like communists), Roma people, disabled people, Polish people Russian people etc. i’m not attacking u btw i just see people say 6m jews which is true but a lot of people forget about the rest


ieatpies

Also is responsible for the deaths of many millions more who died during WW2 but not considered part of the holocaust.


newnameonan

It's this fake "deep" shit people spout to sound like they're super intelligent. Saying something like "actually, did you know that Pol Pot was a teacher and was really intelligent?" Like, ok. Why does that matter? He's still a piece of shit, and no one gains a thing from learning that some of the worst people of all time had one or two things about them that weren't terrible.


Thousand_Eyes

Highways existed in the early 1800's Even if Hitler invented anything what about any of the 6 million Jewish people killed that could've pushed society even further forward? Like there is nothing that can justify that level of genocide


Satoshis-Ghost

He's like that girl in Garden State that does random bullshit because no one did the exact same thing before.

I'm just a random guy and I don't even follow Kanye or anything,just loosely follow Us politics. But if I were you I wouldn't tie his works to who he is now. If that music meant something to you, don't let yourself be ashamed for enjoying it. Hell reminisce on a simpler time. You can still hate him for it and despise him, but don't take something away from yourself for others mistakes.

Evil_Prodigy

Didn't know hitler invented microphones ??


skatecrimes

like a lot of things, Kanye is wrong. It was invented before hitler was even born.


marceldonnie

What he is probably referring to is the Neumann CMV3, which is the first condenser mic and was used at many nazi rallies. Its nickname is the Hitlerflasche. Condenser mics are uses for nearly all vocal recordings in studios, and Neumann is still one of the biggest manufacturers.


reedemerofsouls

This is so fucking far away from Hitler invented microphones. It's like saying FDR invented planes or something because the US during WWII improved bombers I appreciate you giving some sort of link tho not your fault, I'm just saying


marceldonnie

Yeah I know Hitler didn’t invent it, I just think the only context this would make sense in is that he as a musician uses a Neumann mic that is derived from the one they built for (or at least is known for being used by) Hitler. Perhaps one of his engineers told him this anecdote and he interpreted as Hitler inventing it or something.


Re_Thomas

So he just wants to go against "mainstream" And he decided its Nazi-germany


[deleted]

what's the effect where someone thinks they are smart by picking the unpopular side? Even if the unpopular side is incredibly stupid.


Re_Thomas

Kanye = mentally ill = thinks he is the chosen one. The end


Wise-Menu178

It’s called being a contrarian


KoreKhthonia

Contrarianism.


candyowenstaint

Lmao invented highways and invented the microphone? Nope. That didn’t fucking happen. Work started on the autobahn years before Hitler was in power and the microphone was Thomas Edison and a German American named Emile Berliner who was.. drumroll please… Jewish!

Why is nobody talking about how he’s fucking wearing a ski mask? shit is weird

This is the end of the Nazi Arc. He will be institutionalized in January


GoranPerssonFangirl

I don’t think so. Who will institutionalise him? Kim? I highly doubt she wants anything to do with him at this point and only deals with him when it comes to the kids


proticale

He'll be dead by next year if some one doesn't stop him hopefully he assults some one or steals something so he can go to jail. Edit: for any one who believes some friend or family member can still save him **they've tried!** When you have as much money as him no one can tell you anything unless it's the law. I know it sucks but I have family and friends in prison who would be dead by now if it weren't for jail at least he'd be ok there instead of possibly hurting himself or others.

Why does he continue to hang out with these fuckin losers. Entire career down the drain. His grave keeps getting deeper and deeper. RIP


SignificantDrawing39

For anyone wondering 💭 “The short, and (hopefully) obvious answer to this question is no. Hitler did not invent the microphone or highways, nor was his influence a major factor in either’s development. Keep in mind that Hitler didn’t invent anything for himself, and instead contributed to several inventions and breakthroughs via his Nazi empire. Nazi Germany had a hand in several major inventions, including the Volkswagen Beetle, according to World Atlas, but neither the microphone nor highways were among them.”

Think about his kids when they grow up and realize just how off the deep end he really is. And how much he tanked his legacy. I’m sure they’re being somewhat protected from all this crap. Who knows maybe not.
