The genius of Ye fka Kanye West can be attributed to having “the soul” of a white autistic person, says far-right figure Nick Fuentes.
According to white nationalist Nick Fuentes, there’s a reason why Kanye West is so creative – it’s because of white-coded autism. Fuentes made the claim during an interview last Thursday (April 18), with media personality Sneako during a livestream on the Rumble platform. The conversation, which began with Fuentes declaring his dislike for Playboy Carti, saw him declare that Ye was in effect a white autistic person. He cited Ye’s background and instances from when they worked together on Ye’s fledgling campaign for the 2024 presidential election.

“He would have to kind of tone up the Blackness when he was with other Black people. I noticed this,” Fuentes said. “When he was with the Black people, he would kind of tone up how Black he was acting. When he knew he was safe, when he knew it was a judgement-free zone and he could be himself, that’s when he realized his mom was a professor. And he didn’t come from Chicago, he came from Hyde Park. Big difference.”
The 25-year-old would conclude his assessment this way: “He came from the campus of University of Chicago. He liked art, he liked poetry. You know, he’s like a white autist in many ways. He’s got the soul of a white autist. That’s what fuels his genius; not playing into this gang banger, ‘I f*cked your b*tch’ whatever.” Fuentes’ association with Ye became more infamous as the rapper had ostracized himself with a series of antisemitic comments, which led to the dissolution of his partnerships with adidas and Gap.
The white nationalist would also accompany him to a dinner with former President Donald Trump at his Mar-a-Lago resort during the Thanksgiving holiday. Ye has claimed that he has autism, in a series of text messages sent to tech billionaire Elon Musk during his suspension from X, formerly Twitter, in December 2022 after issuing a series of antisemitic posts. “I’m not bi-polar. I have signs of autism from my car accident,” he wrote. The car accident Ye refers to was from 2002, which saw him have his jaw wired shut as a result – autism is widely regarded as a neurological condition one is born with and impossible to be induced by such a situation.

Muni Long has shared another update on her medical health. The 35-year-old Florida native shared with fans last year that she had been diagnosed with lupus. The development caused her to cancel her highly-anticipated 2022 tour to support her Grammy Award-winning single, “Hrs & Hrs.”

On (Dec. 3), the singer-songwriter, born Priscilla Renea Hamilton, took to social media to share a new update on her health, writing: “So apparently I’m autistic, and my free self is the version of me that I began repressing at the age of 22 because it made people highly uncomfortable. It started first with me doing insane amounts of drugs and then when that didn’t work I just held it in. Which led to lupus,” Long penned on X.

“And now the lupus has gotten to a point where it’s effectively impossible to contain. And in order to free myself from the rollercoaster that is autoimmune disease, I have to let my emotions, thoughts and feelings out…. But…. Autism! OMG WTF THIS IS SO WACK [weeping emoji].”
She concluded: “But at least knowing I am autistic explains SO MUCH.”

The brave revelation was met with support from fans. 

Long followed up the three-part post on Dec. 4 writing, “A lot of days I just wanna put my head in the pillow and scream… minus the pillow tho.”

Long told The Breakfast Club last year that she contracted a bacterial infection from a microphone in 2018, and that triggered her Lupus, adding, “So when you have any type of bacteria, especially in your lungs, the inflammation is crazy. So I deal with that. As I’m talking, you can hear me tryna catch my breath,” according to Baller Alert. 
She continued, “I deal with that on a daily basis. I take a lot of medicine to like function normally and that’s not something I normally share. Because that’s my journey, I’m not looking for sympathy.”
According to BlackDoctor.org, “Lupus is a disease where the immune system attacks instead of protects. The immune system is the body’s natural defense against disease. In lupus, the immune system creates antibodies that attack the body’s own tissues and organs.”
African American women in particular seem to have a higher risk of getting lupus. As many as 1 in 250 will develop the disease. Women who suffer from lupus are twice as likely to give birth to a child with autism. 
We send Muni Long best wishes on her health journey.
