In a lawsuit, Lauren Pisciotta alleges the star sent her lewd texts and performed sex acts while on the phone with her, according to US media.

She claims she was fired in 2022, but that a $3 million (£2.4 million) severance package was never paid.

The BBC has contacted West’s lawyer for a response to her allegations, but has yet to receive a reply.

The lawsuit was first reported in the US by TMZ, and later confirmed by Rolling Stone, The Wrap and US Weekly, which says court papers were filed on Monday in the US.

    You still can’t fathom it. Trump is a completely different phenomenon.

    If something like Hitler in a similar socio-political situation happens, you will support it.

          wait what. I’m fairly neurotypical, are you saying the only thing between me and being a Nazi is seeing Hitler’s beautiful visage?

            Maybe some self-discipline too, which in most is insufficient to resist a Hitler that tells what you want to hear.

              And you would be resistant to someone telling you what you want to hear why?

                  Why wouldn’t they bother conning you? It’s especially easy to con someone who thinks it’s hard to con them.

                    Because ND people are socially weaker, which means less interesting to Nazis and any other collectivist phenomenon.

          Sorry… you’re saying the only non-Nazis are neurodivergent?

              I have no idea why you think that. Do you have any evidence for it or is this just a guess on your part?

                  Ah yeah, no one’s ever heard of an antisocial loner into Nazi ideology. So totally not a thing.

      I don’t think so. People communicate more freely than ever, and have access to history more than they ever have. There isn’t a problem that will come up that will suddenly make me want to assist in genocide.

        People communicate more freely than ever,

        What made you think so? My impression is that they communicate more freely in Jules Verne’s books than now. That’s about the Web and not even my environment.

        and have access to history more than they ever have.

        And the fact that it doesn’t help should hint you.

        There isn’t a problem that will come up that will suddenly make me want to assist in genocide.

        “Suddenly” is moving the goalposts. Of course you’ll be prepared.

          There were people that saw the writing on the wall then, and there will be more that see the writing on the wall now is my point.
