Although even Jones seemed taken aback when West declared that: “I see good things about Hitler … Every human being has something of value that they brought to the table, especially Hitler”.The new message urging online creators and influencers to not provide a platform for West has come from the Anti-Defamation League, the Southern Poverty Law Center, the American Jewish Committee, StopAntisemitism and the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance.In part they were responding to news that white nationalist Nick Fuentes, who has become an ally of West of late, has been talking to popular Twitch gamer Adin Ross about arranging an interview with the rapper.Ross, who is Jewish, has reportedly said that he was planning to “stand up for the Jews” in any interview.
