David Schwimmer might be a friend to many, but Kanye West isn’t one of them.
The “Friends” star took to Instagram Saturday — after the rapper posted a new series of controversial and antisemitic tweets — and asked X owner Elon Musk to remove the rapper from the social media platform.
“We can’t stop a deranged bigot from spewing hate filled, ignorant bile… but we CAN stop giving him a megaphone, Mr. Musk,” the Jewish actor said.
“Kanye West has 32.7 million followers on your platform, X. That’s twice as many people than the number of Jews in existence. His sick hate speech results in REAL LIFE violence against Jews.”
The 58-year-old actor continued, “I don’t know what’s worse, the fact that he identifies as a Nazi (which implies he wants to exterminate ALL marginalized communities including his own) or the fact that there is not sufficient OUTRAGE to remove and ban him from all social media at this point.”
“Silence is complicity.”
The “Madagascar” voice actor’s plea comes after the “Bound 2” rapper, now known as Ye, tweeted, “I don’t like or trust no Jewish person, and this is completely sober with no Hennessy.”
The rapper also wrote, “I’m a Nazi,” and, “I’m racist. Stereotypes exist for a reason and they all be true. You can get money with Jewish people but they always gonna steal and invite you over to they house on Friday.”
He further penned, “Jewish people actually hate white people and use black people,” and, “I love Hitler. Now what bitches. I’m never apologizing for my Jewish comments.”
West’s latest posts began after Sunday’s 2025 Grammys, where he sparked outrage by appearing with wife Bianca Censori who was clad in a see-through nude minidress.
The 47-year-old initially wrote about the red carpet stunt, saying he had “dominion over [his] wife.” He also wrote that their relationship isn’t “no woke as[s] feminist s–t,” and noted, “She’s with a billionaire why would she listen to any of you dumb ass broke bitches.”
He then praised Adolf Hitler, writing: “Hitler was sooooo fresh.”
“I’m racist stereotypes exist for a reason and they all be true,” West further said in the since-deleted message. “Some of my best friends are Jewish and I don’t trust any of them.”
The “Gold Digger” rapper was previously banned from X from December 2022 through the summer of 2023 after he posted a swastika and a series of tweets with similarly disturbing content.
The posts also led Adidas to cut ties with West.
