Kanye West recently uploaded a picture on twitter that has taken the internet by storm.

It’s always better to stay quiet than to say something you don’t know much about. And you will most likely agree with this statement once you get to know what actually happened.

In the uploaded picture Kanye West can be clearly seen wearing a hat that says “MAGA.” If you don’t already know what that means it refers to Trump’s Let’s “Make America Great Again.” A person showing the white supremacy hand gesture is also seen in the picture and let’s not forget how Kanye called Trump his “brother.” This has made people all over the world furious.

Exactly how and in what sense, you ask? Scroll down and see for yourself!

This is the original tweet by Kanye West.

However, that’s not all. The situation got much worse after Trump tweeted and acknowledged Kanye by “thanking” him.

Kanye West has performed a great service to the Black Community – Big things are happening and eyes are being opened for the first time in Decades – Legacy Stuff! Thank you also to Chance and Dr. Darrell Scott, they really get it (lowest Black & Hispanic unemployment in history).

This caused Chaos everywhere as people were shocked to see their favorite rapper siding with someone who considers some members of neo-nazi and the KKK as “very fine people.”

This is how some people reacted.

.@kanyewest has sold out his brand and his followers. Supporting a known misogynist, xenophobic, homophobic and transphobic “leader” doesn’t make you a “free thinker” it makes you a puppet for his agenda. Instead of tweeting your “philosophy” you should try READING FIRST. SMH.

So @tafari I can’t judge Kanye’s balance sheet but this is really bad. Immigrant families are being torn apart at the border. He’s banning people based on their religion. Complimenting Nazis and Kanye supports him. Hot music alone (from years ago) doesn’t counterbalance to me. https://t.co/di0o1cngVF

Kanye is out here living wreckless, like he doesn’t know this is a post-H&M, Heineken, Starbucks world. Black folks will dry your money up like a splash of water on a Mississippi sidewalk. He better hope Kim’s checks stay strong…

However, things took an interesting turn when Kanye confessed after his initial tweet that he doesn’t know enough about the conservatives to be calling himself one.

I haven't done enough research on conservatives to call myself or be called one. I'm just refusing to be enslaved by monolithic thought.

And upon this, some people decided to enlighten him.

Conservatives are amazing, diverse, funny, intelligent, freedom-loving folks. It's a shame the media lies about us. I would never be anything else, and am proud to be the grandaughter of Italian immigrants who love America.

Liberals hate America. That's what their platform has become, which is why I know so many people who left the democratic party. Look what they're fighting for. Illegal aliens over Americans, and more taxes.

The Liberals and Leftists also played their part and explained more by presenting Kanye some authentic facts. Also, they made him realize how his inappropriate tweet reached everywhere cus of his huge fan following.

Conservatives give all your money to the 1% & create huge gaps in income inequality* I corrected that for you.

That’s the problem you are doing and saying all this but haven’t done research and self admittedly don’t read. Check into the direction that the impact of your influence goes.

Sir, you put on a MAGA hat which is a GOP slogan..MAGA is a racist white supremacist dog whistle..You took pic with folks who held up a white power sign. You saw trump call Nazis "fine people" and called african countries "shithole countries"

You called that man your brother

This tweet is hilarious.

But you did enough research on Gods to call yourself one? Nigga, I am so confused.

Check out Fox News for monolithic thought. With your open mind you'll quickly notice that there is only one way to be a conservative — lots of ways to be a liberal.

This twitter user indeed has a very good point.

he's literally raising money off of you
