Saint West, Kim Kardashian’s son, had his YouTube channel taken down on Wednesday after he posted two brief videos criticizing Democratic nominee Kamala Harris.
This incident has sparked conversations about the impact of social media on young children and the ramifications of political commentary at such a young age.
Saint’s channel’s deletion follows Kim Kardashian making headlines a month prior for having her son sign a handwritten contract. This contract required him to obtain her approval before posting any content.
According to the Miami Herald, the agreement included several stipulations, stating, “I, Saint West, agree to follow my mom’s rules to have a YouTube channel. I am not allowed to comment on any personal family information. I am not allowed to film any personal information. I must show my mom or guardian all videos before I post them.”
Despite these precautions, Saint’s channel now appears to be entirely unavailable, with search results showing a message indicating that the page does not exist. As of now, YouTube has not released an official statement regarding the channel’s removal.
In one of the videos, Saint allegedly referred to Kamala using terms like “dumb,” “stupid,” “crazy,” and “dangerous.” Another video featured a cartoon character alongside the phrase, “I stepped in s**t,” accompanied by an image of Kamala.
The incident has sparked a wave of reactions across social media, especially on X, with many users expressing surprise and concern over the situation, noting that he likely learned this behavior from the adults around him. One user commented, “That was such a ‘Kanye’ post though,” in reference to Saint’s father, Kanye West, known for his outspoken views.
