Kanye West gave up antisemitism after watching Jonah Hill in ’21 Jump Street’

Jonah Hill is a pretty chill guy these days. He lives by the beach, he surfs, he drinks juice, he spends time with his girlfriend, he goes to therapy. Meanwhile, we have no idea what Kanye West is doing. He had another breakdown last fall, and this one antisemitic. He was talking constantly about how much he loves Adolf Hitler and how Jewish people run Hollywood. Then he was fired from Adidas, fired from Balenciaga, fired from Vogue, fired from CAA, fired from every deal and every collaboration. Thoroughly and totally canceled. He went away, he got married (sort of) and apparently now that he’s unemployed and broke, he spends his time watching movies. Kanye just watched 21 Jump Street and Jonah Hill cured him of his antisemitism. Kanye wrote this on Instagram, alongside the movie’s poster:

Watching Jonah Hill in 21 Jump street made me like Jewish people again

No one should take anger against one or two individuals and transform that into hatred towards millions of innocent people

No Christian can be labeled antisemite knowing Jesus is Jew

Thank you Jonah Hill I love you

[From Kanye’s IG]

First of all, how did Kanye not see 21 Jump Street when it came out in 2012? That film started Jonah and Channing Tatum’s bromance, and taught us all that Channing is a really gifted comedic actor. Anyway, I know that Kanye is just saying dumb sh-t to be provocative – don’t fall for it. Today, Jonah Hill cured him of antisemitic bigotry. Tomorrow, he’ll watch Top Gun: Maverick and want to talk to Tom Cruise about Scientology.

    For some reason, this Jew doesn’t believe him…

  2. Christine says:

    You know Jonah is doing the biggest eyeroll checking his texts this morning

  3. Pointillist says:

    Leave Jonah and all other Jewish people alone.

  4. Zazzoo says:

    Lemme get this straight. 21 Jump Street led to the epiphany that Jesus was a Jew?

    • ThatsNotOkay says:

      He finally realized they all begin with the letter “J.” And that was the link that began the healing.

    • Theresa says:

      Apparently even though he is supposedly “religious” he never heard of the bible?

      • Debbie says:

        Bi – ble? What is this “bible” you speak of? Don’t you know that true religiousiosos like Kanye get all their religious content from remakes of old tv shows from the 1980? That’s where the real truth is.

        And don’t you love how he writes that “No one should take anger from one or two individuals and turn that into hatred of millions of innocent people”? Setting aside the fact that, as a grown man, Kanye should have known that all along. But then, he promptly turns his supposedly benign feelings about one Jewish man (Jonah Hill) into a feeling about all Jews in general. Very consistent fellow, that Kanye. And the way he lurches from extreme to extreme certainly bodes well for the next time he catches a Jewish person spitting on a sidewalk. Oh, Yesus! There THEY go again!

    Jonah Hill would like to be excluded from this narrative.

    • Whyforthelove ish says:

      Jonah Hill definitely wants to be left off this rant please lol. He’s probably like ummm I am minding my own business Dude you do you without ME please

  6. Brassy Rebel says:

    Okay then. (massive eye roll)

  7. MY3CENTS says:

    Great, what movie can he watch now to cure him of his problematic views about black people?

  8. Chaine says:

    Omg can he just leave poor Jonah Hill alone? A person who has his own mental health struggles and has explicitly asked not to be media spotlighted?!

  9. Eurydice says:

    Cool, next he can watch IQ and be cured of stupidity.

  10. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. He now likes Jewish people from watching a Jewish person in a movie. You can’t make this sh*t up. Kanye you are not forgiven.

  11. CC says:

    “What would you do if you could go back in time? Would you kill Hitler?”

    “Why bother killing him when I could just show him ‘21 Jump Street?’”

  12. Debbie says:

    After Kanye saw a Jonah Hill movie, eh? Hm. Aw well, crisis averted and crazy begone. (I’m assuming that’s what Kanye West wants us all to think now, right? It couldn’t be that this last minute “conversion” is because he’s seeing his sources of income dry up and no one really wants to go into business with him. Naw, it couldn’t be that.).

  13. LaUnicaAngelina says:

    Damn Ye, you’re a clown.

    The American History X tweet killed me. 😂

  14. Donna says:

    Right now,Kim is watching all this and thinking, thank God it’s not my problem. She can just look back and say it has nothing to do with her now.

  15. Kanye is a Ghoul! says:

    So nice to hear of Kanye’s conscious uncoupling with antisemitism. Are they registered somewhere? Do we need to get them a gift?

  16. Eleonor says:

    “Tomorrow, he’ll watch Top Gun: Maverick and want to talk to Tom Cruise about Scientology. ”
    How is it possible that Scientology and Kanye hasn’t met yet ?
    My take: even coS knows he is pr trouble, and no way Tom Cruise will be his bestie, he has a too clever PR team.

    “No Christian can be antisemitic”

    I. The. He. What.

    Question: Is he actually this utterly and cosmically stupid, or is it all for attention? I have this impulse to list all the Christian-led pogroms, but we all know, right? If you don’t, here’s a Wikipedia entry: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pogrom

    Either way, he is a disgusting excuse for a human being.

  18. jferber says:

    This is bizarre, random and bogus. I loved Jonah Hill’s movie/documentary Stutz. I found it so moving and meaningful. Beautiful movie.

  19. jferber says:

    Emily C, A history teacher colleague in my high school had a poster in her classroom of the famous photo of the Catholic bishop goose stepping with the Nazis in a parade. Kanye knows so little, but spouts off garbage so much. Too bad he doesn’t go on a silent, healing journey for at least two years in which we hear nothing from him. Oh well . . .

  20. Annalise/Typical Virgo says:

    Looks like he FINALLY realized that he was doing himself NO favors with his Hitler Youth act. Either that or his new wife convinced him.
    I think he had gotten away with saying foul shit for so long, he probably thought the antisemitism sh*t would just be another drop in the bucket.
    Not only that, LA has a very large, very vibrant and active Jewish community. Probably the largest outside of NYC. Talk about picking the WORST city in which to be a Nazi…….what a dumb dumb……

    I’m rolling my eyes so hard I see my own ass. Lies KW! Go hang out at the I’m nut house please and give America a rest dude.
