To think Kanye West is abusing his ex wife in public?

[AmandaStaveleysBlackNWhiteArmy]

First off want to be clear I’m no KK fan. I think on the whole the Kardashian’s steal a living and contribute little to society.

However KK is a woman and a mother and appears to be being abused very publicly by Kanye West.

Someone needs to take his insta password away from him, he has been on another posting spree this morning aimed at Kim and Pete Davidson and other public figures who have supported them, particularly this guy who made the very real point that if Kim Kardashian can’t extricate herself easily from an abusive man what hope does anyone else have?

I appreciate Kanye is an unwell man but I can only imagine the desperation and sense of helplessness KK has right now over the way the father of her children is behaving.

AIBU to think more people should be calling this out and not saying that he’s just a man who wants his wife back and he loves her so much he can’t bear to see her with anyone else. It’s abuse, plain and simple surely?

I'm well aware. I'm not new to the thread.[/quote]
I actually meant to put something after that

I had a point to add, lol, but then then I had to actually do something and hit post instead of just closing it and now I’ve forgotten where I was going...

Something to do with social media and his so called concern about the children I think.

All good.

Yes I think I know what you are talking about it's the post that had an alien head on her backpack and him saying it represented parent alienation...

I remember seeing that post and being a bit lost tbh lol

None of the people involved sound great but Kanye’s behaviour is not acceptable.

I wonder what his mother would make of his misogynistic bullshit. They seemed to have a really close relationship and she was a highly intelligent academic, a professor. So it’s not like he’s not had experience of women working hard and being successful in their own right.

He really spiralled when she died, his previously more benign narcissistic traits became more pronounced and his relationship with reality became more precarious.

I believe he has a dx of bipolar disorder but there may well be an underlying ‘axis 2’ personality disorder also.

AGREE.

@DreamTheMoors

Yeah he took it over the line with TN. Totally unacceptable.

@AngeloMysterioso

Kanye is just a misogynistic narcissistic horrible man and he always has been.

Indeed. And that didn’t bother Kim one little bit as long as she was getting Vogue covers and Met Gala invitations and it was other women at the receiving end of his abuse. In fact she actively participated in the abuse of Taylor Swift and seemed to think it was great fun.

Now it’s directed at her, suddenly it’s a problem.

In school I think I remember being told that people who bully are usually being bullied themselves, and I've yet to find an example where this isn't actually true once all the facts are presented.

I think KK was absolutely complicit and every one has the right to think her participation or enabling behaviour was deplorable, because it was.

But I also believe Kanye was abusive then, as he is now in the media and even for women who are rich and lead completely unrelatable lives they're still subjected to the same manipulative, gaslighting abuse tactics that us common folk are, except it's harder to ask for help because you're a public figure and we all know what happens to public figures, whom happen to be women, who take a stand.

From what I've seen from the kardashians (which isn't much, about series 8 and the new York spin off), he's been controlling from the start. Sorry, I haven't read the full thread, but I saw an episode where he bought Kim a brand new wardrobe (literally $1000,000 plus) and she was so happy, I guess who wouldnt be, but it was completely different to what she used to weart. Typically victims think 'wow, he's thought that much about me,he must love me so much!, but it meant throwing out or donating all her stuff, because he says this is what's 'in'.he also knew ok influence, and that of her sisters, and I feel she was so besotted. He did the same for Kris Jenners birthday. He does need to stop, but Pete offered him a lifeline saying, please stop, I have health problems, I spent want you're children to suffer etc and he just blew it. I have empathy for Kanye, but not sympathy

I always tend to flick over anything if I see anything written about him.. He is an ugly looking guy, with a miserable face, and looks a bit loopy to put it mildly.. I have never seen him perform, or watched any of the Kardashian crap stuff on TV.

Well he's now started on TikTok instead. Little snippets of what sounds like the start of reasonable issues but with no full context or real explanation. Still posting about KK getting back with him too... after a video saying he's glad he's a single man and rid of KK and PD!

I hope they do go to court and a formal custody arrangement put in place, it seems he's flying the kids here there and everywhere and picking up whenever he can. I don't think he realises how good a deal that is for him, but no stability for kids or an ex who might want more notice herself. She said she wouldn't go to court re custody, I don't think she wanted to be the one who looked bad doing that but now he has, it might be the thing that really shuts him up.

I find it bizarre that even on here there are posters willing to defend his behaviour.

Me too. Quite astonished. If they didn’t have wealth, and were low income or a family on benefits, I don’t think his behaviour would be defended. At all.

Let’s be honest here and say he is extremely wealthy and famous and that’s the only reason in my opinion why he hasn’t been sectioned/detained under the mental health act for a assessment.

He is obviously not well.

I don’t think anyone should be commenting on his mental health and suggesting that in different circumstances he would be sectioned/detained for an assessment of his mental health.
KW is extremely successful and wealthy I’m sure he has and can afford all the help he needs.

His dispute with his ex-wife is just that, a dispute, no need to bring his well-known difficulties into it.

He's now been barred from performing at the Grammy's
