YouTube is removing re-uploaded clips of Kanye West's interview with Alex Jones: report

• NBC News reported YouTube is removing reuploaded clips of Kanye West's interview with Alex Jones.
• Google told NBC that clips are removed if antisemitism isn't denounced in the video via commentary.

YouTube is removing clips of Kanye West's interview with InfoWars host Alex Jones that are being uploaded to the site, according to NBC News.

Google, which owns YouTube, told the outlet in a statement that reuploads would be removed if the antisemitism featured in the interview isn't denounced in the video with "added commentary."

NBC News added that other platforms like Twitter, owned by Elon Musk, have yet to install such a policy.

InfoWars and Google did not immediately respond to Insider's request for comment.

Comments made by West during the December 1st interview sparked a swift backlash from social media users and Jewish community leaders. Clips shared online by Right Wing Watch show that West praised Nazis and Adolf Hitler.

"There's a lot of things that I love about Hitler. A lot of things," West said in one clip.

In another, West said: "I love Jewish people, but I also love Nazis."

The interview came after NBC News reported in November that West praised Hitler and Nazis during business meetings. CNN reported similar behavior in October, with one business executive who formerly worked for West saying the "Donda" artist had an "obsession" with Hitler. West's antisemitic comments in recent months have caused large companies, like Adidas and Vogue, to cut ties with him.

After the InfoWars interview, West was suspended from Twitter for sharing a photo of a swastika superimposed over the Star of David. Musk acknowledged the suspension with a tweet on December 1.

"I tried my best. Despite that, he again violated our rule against incitement to violence. Account will be suspended," Musk wrote, referring to West.

In a Twitter Spaces conversation, Musk shared more details about Twitter's decision to suspend West, saying, "at some point, you have to say what is incitement to violence because it is against the law in the US. Posting swastikas in what obviously is not a good way is an incitement to violence."
