    Nah, sorry. I’m going with my favorite podcaster’s take on this: mental health is not your fault, but it is your responsibility. Kanye is bipolar, and unmedicated, both of these things are true. However, that doesn’t mean we should simply ignore or excuse his comments as “well he’s still in a manic state.” He knows what he’s saying, he’s backed it up and doubled down when confronted on it.

      Yes obviously, I’m not condoning what he did and said. He’s very obviously mentally ill, I’m just pointing out that it’s sad and he needs professional help.
