After making a slew of anti-Semitic remarks, praising Adolf Hitler, and wearing a swastika shirt, Kanye West has apologized for his behavior.
I am done with antisemitism

I love all people

God forgive me for the pain I’ve caused

I simply got a FaceTime from my kids and I wanna save the world again…

"I am done with antisemitism," he tweeted this morning. "I love all people. God forgive me for the pain I’ve caused. I simply got a FaceTime from my kids and I wanna save the world again."
It's possible that what Kanye tweeted is true: Not speaking to his children fueled his hate speech, and now that he's spoken to them he's softened.
Another theory is that it's getting increasingly harder for Ye to shock people since he's been posting the craziest things on social media as of late. So, what other way to shock people but to do a complete turnaround?
Mind you, Ye has apologized for his racist behavior before but continued to send hateful messages.
What do you think is at the root of his apology?
