Ye's Twitter account suspended again following swastika tweet<p>Twitter has given Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, at least a
12-hour suspension after he tweeted a photo of the Star of David merged with the swastika. In a public exchange on Twitter, CEO Elon Musk first told the rapper that tweeting a photo of him being hosed down on a yacht was fine, but tweeting the antisemitic image was not. </p><p>Ye then
posted a screenshot of his account on
Truth Social, the social media platform backed by Donald Trump, showing that his account has been limited for 12 hours for violating Twitter's Terms of Service. Also included was a screenshot of his private exchange with Musk, wherein the executive said: "Sorry, but you have gone too far. This is not love." </p><span id="end-legacy-contents"></span><p>Musk explained in a series of follow-up tweets that he tried his best to communicate with Ye, but the rapper still chose to violate Twitter's rule
against inciting violence. Twitter had already
suspended Ye in October for posting antisemitic messages that said he would go "death con 3 On JEWISH PEOPLE." His account was reinstated in November, along with other controversial personalities', such as former
President Donald Trump's and Marjorie Taylor Greene's.</p><p>Shortly after he was suspended on both Twitter and Instagram in October, Ye entered a
deal to acquire the "free speech" social media app Parler. "In a world where conservative opinions are considered to be controversial we have to make sure we have the right to freely express ourselves," Ye said back then. Yesterday, however, Parlement announced that the acquisition will no longer push through. </p><p>While Parler said that they had
mutually agreed to "terminate the intent of sale" in mid-November, the news came out after Ye's guesting on Alex Jones' podcast
InfoWars. During the interview, Ye
went on an antisemitic tirade, wherein he denied the Holocaust while praising Nazis and Hitler.</p>
