AEW wrestler MJF has hit back at comments made by Kanye West many have called antisemitic.
On Twitter, West said that he was going to “go death con 3 on JEWISH PEOPLE.”
West also claimed that “you people,” which many believe he is referring to Jewish people, “have toyed with me and tried to blackball me”, adding that they have an “agenda.”
“I’m a bit sleepy tonight when I wake up I’m going death con 3 On JEWISH PEOPLE The funny thing is I actually can’t be Anti Semitic because black people are actually Jew also You guys have toyed with me and tried to black ball anyone whoever opposes your agenda.”
In a response, MJF fired off a now-deleted tweet against West’s comments.
“Kanye calling Jewish people horrifying doesn’t shock me. What shocks me is how little we as a society talk about antisemitism. To put things into perspective. Slavery was very recent and the plight of POC is still rampant. End of slavery-1865. End of Holocaust-1945. People tweeting “this is out of character.” I don’t play a character. Never have. I’m a Jew. I’m angry, And you should be angry too.”
MJF has addressed antisemitism in the past, saying he is proud to be Jewish.
