Candace Owens is seen by many on social media to be nothing more than a grifter, leaning into her role as a passionate Black conservative with calculated glee. In the wake of the news that Kanye West aka Ye is going to buy the social media service that her husband oversees, Owens’ name began trending on Twitter with all the insults packed in as one can imagine.
Candace Owens, a mature-looking 33 years of age, is a star of the conservative pundit space and has aligned herself with the likes of Donald Trump and other right wings stalwarts supporters and figures. Parler, the so-called free speech social media app erected as a counter to Twitter, names Owens’ husband, George Farmer, as its CEO. Farmer also put funds behind in support of the right-wing Brexit Party in the United Kingdom
While we don’t know anything about Owens personally, what the record can reflect is that she wasn’t always a fan of Trump or the Republican Party in general. It appears that Owens hit a financial lick by cosplaying an angry Black conservative who loves America and wants to return it to its former glory.
Owens has her share of supporters and she often gets marched out with some of her Black conservative cohorts as voices of reason and representation on that side of the political ideology aisle. The sad thing is most people see through Owens’ act and realize that she probably doesn’t even believe the stuff she spews on the behalf of the MAGA faithful.
Adding to this, Owens has been heavily promoting a documentary titled The Greatest Lie Ever Sold: George Floyd and the Rise of BLM, another portion of her ongoing feud with the Black Lives Matter movement.
On Twitter, folks are cooking Candace Owens by those wispy edges of hers. Check out the reactions below.

Candace Owens doesn’t believe a word she’s saying. She used to be anti-Trump and anti-GOP. Now, she’s one of many Black fake conservative grifters who disingenuously deal right-wing propaganda for a living. The depraved scheme is transparent and yet people keep buying their BS.

If you're keeping track, the order of operations here is:
1) Candace Owens and Kanye West do their "White Lives Matter" stunt.
2) She spends the week defending him and his anti-Jewish rants.
3) He buys the third-tier social media company her husband runs. pic.twitter.com/AGUPNAy4kd— Matthew Gertz (@MattGertz) October 17, 2022

Candace Owens & Kanye West are to the black community what Ben Shapiro is to the Jewish community, treasonous pieces of shit who hate themselves more than the garbage they partner with.
All three will find out that when the KKK & Nazis are done using them, they’re next.

Yes. Candace Owens and Kanye West are friends.
You may think friendship is calling people on their birthdays, going to their weddings, or asking how they're doing. Only a few reach the "grift them out of a lot of money to buy a struggling tech venture your husband runs" stage.

Candace Owens is profiting off of anti-Blackness.
This is purposely done. She was a liberal until 2017 when she saw there was money in being a shield for white supremacy. A quick study, she imbibed the fascist tactics of anti-intellectualism, unreality, and hierarchy. pic.twitter.com/mhud8Bi5pF— Maya Contreras (@mayatcontreras) October 11, 2022

Choosing to still run it is ugly. Everything isn’t worth the price of admission. You can’t claim to have the best interest of Black people and run that. Especially when dude is citing MF’n Candace Owens as a source. It’s no such thing as a refund on selling your integrity.

Trump and Candace Owens have been running the anti-black, anti-semitic playbook since before 2020. This is just the prelude to 2024.
