Part 9/11:
A significant point of contention is whether Kanye is knowingly orchestrating this chaos or genuinely unable to control his impulses. Some suggest he is simply a manic individual in the throes of mental illness—whether diagnosed or not—whose actions are largely unpredictable and self-destructive.
Others argue he is fully aware but chooses to display these behaviors intentionally, perhaps to maintain relevance, provoke outrage, or manipulate public perception. The fact that Kanye continues to deny having bipolar disorder complicates the debate, as it suggests he perceives himself as mentally sound and in control.
