HasanAbi criticizes Tim Pool for his interview with Kanye West and co.

Earlier this year, Kanye West faced a barrage of criticism after flaunting a "White Lives Matter" shirt. Furthermore, he has also made statements that were considered anti-Semitic, causing him to get canceled online.

Since the controversy surfaced, Tim Pool has become the first content creator to platform Kanye West, also known as Ye. Seeing this, HasanAbi, who has previously criticized Kanye for his misdemeanor, spoke out through Twitter. Reacting to the podcast, he said:

"kanye west started off immediately by saying he's falsely labeled anti semitic because he's said the truth about there being lots of jews in banks and hollywood."

HasanAbi also criticized Tim Pool for fuelling Kanye's ambition to run for the US Presidentship. He posted:

"tim pool told kanye "his run for president be good for the black vote" which demonstrates how much he knows about politics."

Hasan noted that 21 minutes into the stream, Kanye stormed out of the studio after Cook refused to identify the corporate press as Jews.

The streamer tweeted:
