Ye’s Departure from X
In a tweet just before his account vanished, Kanye wrote, “I’m logging out of Twitter,” expressing gratitude for the platform. “I appreciate Elon for allowing me to vent. It has been very cathartic to use the world as a sounding board. It was like Ayahuasca trip. Love all of you who gave me your energy and attention. To we connect again. Good afternoon and goodnight.” His sudden exit from X follows a string of alarming posts, including a recent rant in which he self-identified as a Nazi and expressed hatred toward Jewish people. West’s profile was temporarily flagged with a content warning due to these posts, signaling that his account contained potentially sensitive material.

Super Bowl Ad and Joker Comparison
Before leaving X, Kanye made an appearance during the Super Bowl, using an ad slot to promote his Yeezy brand while humorously commenting on his new teeth. He joked that the money spent on the commercial went towards his dental work, leading to the ad being filmed on an iPhone. Social media quickly buzzed with reactions, including comparisons to the Joker from the Batman movies. One viral X user, ‘kira,’ drew parallels between Kanye’s message and the iconic villain’s antics, further fueling public speculation and online discourse.
