Ye sat down with right-wing conspiracy theorist Alex Jones on InfoWars, in which he praised Adolf Hitler and the Nazis.<\/p>\nYe has spiraled so far into conspiracy theories and racist rhetoric over the last month and a half that even influencers who may have previously wanted to capitalize on his notorious behavior are shying away. <\/p>\n
“I’m just gonna keep it short and sweet and simple,” Ross said during the stream. “Yes, I know it would be my biggest stream ever, but sometimes it’s not worth it, you know what I mean?”<\/p>\n
Ross, 22, has over 7 million followers on Twitch and 3.1 million followers on YouTube, and identifies as Jewish. He previously mentioned that Ye was one of his favorite musicians, although he has also condemned Ye’s antisemitic comments.<\/p>\n
Although he ultimately took a stand this time, Ross has not hesitated to interview highly controversial personalities in the past. Some of his most notorious interviews have included internet figures like iShowSpeed, who was banned from multiple video games and Twitch after he made misogynistic comments, and Andrew Tate, the professional kickboxer who’s been banned from multiple platforms for repeatedly making offensive and misogynistic remarks.<\/p>\n
When Fuentes announced the potential interview<\/a> between Ye and Ross, he said he wanted “Jewish people to be a part of” the conversation.<\/p>\nRoss did not immediately respond to Insider’s request for comment.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
