Streams of N.W.A.'s "Fuck Tha Police" are surging as anti-police brutality protests continue around the world, and while Ice Cube has recently acknowledged that Everythang's Corrupt, some recent Twitter shares have found the artist trafficking in anti-semitic memes and half-baked conspiracy theories.

On top of sharing more legitimate critiques of the systemic racism in society, Cube has also shared an image of a mural with anti-Semitic caricatures, an image of an occult symbol inside the Star of David, a post about Egyptian statues cooked up by Russian page Black Matters, and propaganda in support of extremely sad right-wing fringe conspiracy group QAnon.
Many of Cube's fans took to the comments to point out the issues in sharing the images. Of the conspiracy image, he would admit, "I don't know who the fuck Q is? It's just a True statement." When it came to the anti-semitic mural, he wrote, "My image was cropped. I get along with every race on the earth."
A more sweeping statement Ice Cube shared yesterday saw him explain, "My account has not been hacked. I speak for no organization. I only speak for the meek people of thee earth. We will not expect crumbles from your table. We have to power of almighty God backing us all over the earth. NO MORE TALKING. Repent."
