After a 12-hour tirade on X (formerly Twitter) filled with antisemitic remarks, bizarre accusations, and controlling statements about his wife, Bianca Censori, Kanye West is now attempting to reframe the controversy—calling it a “social experiment.”

However, while all of his original inflammatory tweets remain live, West quickly deleted his “social experiment” post, raising even more questions about his true intentions.

Following his shocking spree of posts—which included claims of “dominion” over Bianca, attacks on Elon Musk, and declarations like “I love Hitler”—West posted:

“I tweeted pretty much everything I felt like for about 12 hours and I still have my Twitter. And most importantly, my billions.
Thank you everyone for participating in this social experiment.”

He then sarcastically thanked rappers, Black women, Jews, LGBTQ+ individuals, and even "internet trolls" before deleting the tweet entirely.

Unlike past incidents where he faced brand cancellations and financial fallout, West has so far avoided major consequences for his latest outburst. Despite his most extreme statements to date—including "I’m a Nazi" and accusations that Musk "stole his Nazi swag"—his account remains active on X.

Fans and critics alike are divided—some see the “social experiment” excuse as a weak attempt at damage control, while others believe West is testing how far he can push free speech limits on Elon Musk’s platform.
