Kanye West is still facing fallout from his anti-Semitic rants about Jewish people. Losing lawyers, endorsement days, and business relationships are among his problems currently. However, a documentary focused on him is still up on a popular streaming service.
According to TMZ, Netflix will not be taking down Kanye West’s “Jeen-Yuhs” documentary amid his anti-Semitic attacks. The company decided to keep the three-part documentary series up since they do not have a business relationship with West and the film didn’t contain any anti-Semitic rhetoric.
Kanye attended the Los Angeles screening with Chaney Jones earlier in the year. Several celebrities participated in the premiere of the documentary.
Netflix took a similarly hands-off approach to Dave Chappelle’s comedy specials, which featured anti-trans sentiment. It was allowed to exist as part of the streamer’s vast catalog.
Along with his anti-Semitic remarks from the past couple of weeks, West said that George Floyd wasn’t murdered by police officers but rather died from fentanyl use. A $250 million lawsuit from the surviving family members of Floyd.
Thirsty will continue to monitor the ongoing fallout of Kanye’s latest remarks. Won’t get better for him anytime soon.
