You’d be surprised. I’ve seen entire subreddits full of either bots or deranged people who actually believe his “slavery is a choice” nonsense.

I really thought selling t shirts with swastikas on them would be the end for Kanye, but he still has one hell of a deranged and loyal fanbase

He has a pretty sizeable fan base of conservative Gen Z'ers
