Kim Kardashian said she felt “guilty” after brands dropped Kanye West following his antisemitic remarks

Kim Kardashian said she felt “guilty” after brands dropped Kanye West following his antisemitic remarks. 

“I feel guilty that I like, posted something in support of the Jewish community, then people dropped him… And I’m like, ‘Is that my fault that like, I posted that? And did that like, push them, and I should have just kept quiet?'”

In October 2022, Ye was locked out of his Twitter account after an antisemitic rant on the platform. The American Jewish Committee also accused Ye of deploying “antisemitic tropes like greed and control” after his remarks about Jared Kushner on Fox News in October, Insider previously reported. Ye was eventually dropped by brands including Balenciaga and Adidas, as well as his talent agency CAA, the Los Angeles Times reported.

Kardashian spoke emotionally about dealing with the fallout of Ye’s antisemitism in season three, episode six of “The Kardashians,” which aired Thursday on Hulu. In a conversation with her sister, Khloé Kardashian, she said that she hadn’t spoken with her ex-husband because he would “probably go off” on her.

Kim is in a tough position, being a vital influencer in pop culture who is attached to the most toxic influencer in pop culture. While she wants to be vocal about what’s important, she doesn’t want to cause grief for her ex-husband. During the episode, she becomes rather inconsolable about the whole ordeal. Kanye put Kim in a corner where she has to hurt somebody. If she were to say nothing at all, it’s almost as if she condones his behavior.
