Kanye West, who now goes by Ye, is moving on to another social platform after recently getting locked out of Twitter and Instagram — and the size and makeup of his online audience is set to transform as a result.
The conservative-leaning site Parler, which touts a commitment to „free speech,“ announced on Monday that Ye had agreed to purchase it after making antisemitic posts on Instagram and Twitter. He then doubled down, leading The LeBron James-produced YouTube series „The Shop“ to scrap an interview with West taped last week because he used the opportunity to „reiterate more hate speech.“
If Ye now turns to Parler as his primary communication channel online, his online audience will significantly change.
For starters, his reach will be severely limited compared to what his reach was on Twitter and Instagram.
