I’m appalled that Kim Kardashian hasn’t come out and added her voice to this debate because this woman has children with Kanye, so she must understand as a mother what it feels like for little Jewish children to hear these f****** comments, how demoralizing and terrifying it must be, Boy George, via Instagram.

Hate speech is never OK or excusable.

Last week, Twitter began the process of removing check marks from legacy verified accounts such as Kim Kardashian, Lady Gaga, Oprah and many more.
The social media platform has since implemented a new system of verification
for different kinds of accounts.
In addition to blue check marks, Twitter CEO Elon Musk previously said there would be gold badges for businesses and grey badges for government.
'Variety' reports that Twitter
briefly awarded @DisneyJuniorUK a
gold verification badge on April 24.
The page also boasted the message:
"This account is verified because it's
an official business on Twitter.".
However, @DisneyJuniorUK is
not an official business, but rather a parody account that has posted racial slurs.
The owner of the account tweeted
their surprise at being verified.
No f****** way. This isn’t actually real right. Someone f****** pinch me or something, @DisneyJuniorUK, via Twitter .
Typically, gold verification status costs
$1,000 per month, but the fee is waived
for larger companies, like Disney.
After Disney and other sources
reached out to inform Twitter of its
mistake, the account was suspended

Diane Abbott has had the Labour whip suspended after comments she made suggesting Jewish, Irish and Traveller people are not subject to racism “all their lives”. Ms Abbott wrote in a letter in The Observer that although white people “with points of difference” suffer prejudice, they have not suffered the same racism as black people. She later apologised for any “anguish” caused, suggesting “errors arose” in her initial draft letter to the newspaper following a huge backlash. However, Labour confirmed that the whip has been suspended from her pending an investigation into the letter.
