Kanye West says he’s NOT bipolar, he’s autistic
During a recent interview, Kanye explains the reason why he’s so talented and able to dabble in so many different things is that he’s on the spectrum. Kanye proceeded to add that in being autistic, there was really only one thing he couldn’t do. The rapper explained that because of his autism, he was unable to have hate in his heart. He loves everyone and everything.
Kanye also admitted that being autistic gave him superpowers similar to Rainman.
How does the internet feel about his claim?
The fact that “Kanye West autistic” is trending on Twitter means the internet does have something to say about his claims. The question is: What are they saying? For the most part, those reacting to the information were not too happy. Many agreed Kanye was making a mockery of the ASD community with this claim. Others questioned if he had a doctor officially diagnose him as autistic or if he was just making this claim on his own.
No. Absolutely no. You absolutely do not use autism as a get out of jail card, implying that we autistic folks bigots. This is a case of being Kanye West, a raging antisemite and racism. This is triggering to us autistic folks on so many levels https://t.co/Cq4pQqEjhM

Here’s what some people had to say in response to Kanye’s claim:
- “This is shameful and harmful to those who actually have/ or are autistic.”
- “Being autistic is not sufficient to cause, justify, or excuse support for racism, fascism, or other character defects.”
Why are these deadshits like Elon and Kanye coming out as autistic?
It feels… insincere to me
All the autistic people I know are cool and interesting. They often torture themselves, thinking about the people around them
Can’t say the same about those two muppets

There were, however, some people who agreed with the diagnosis and noted that Kanye being on the spectrum just made sense.
Here’s what one individual had to say about it: “Asperger’s most likely. It was always kinda obvious the way he never smiles. He needs real people around him, the only way he is coping right now is by completely rejecting any confrontation that includes the people trying to help him. He’s choosing his instincts over rationale.”
