Azealia Banks is at it again on Twitter, proving once again that she should at least sign up for anger management classes — and perhaps check into an asylum.

It all started when Banks accused former One Direction member, and now solo singer, Zayn Malik, of copying visual elements from her music video, “Yung Rapunxel.”
Malik may or may not have responded in the form of these tweets.
No lies … I see you reaching but I don't care ????✌????️

My @'s too good for you

Banks responded with an eclectic blend of racist and homophobic slurs that somehow still do not violate Twitter’s community guidelines. For the record, Malik is half Pakistani, half white.

Not all the tweets remain on Twitter. She goes on to say, “When your entire extended family has been obliterated by good ol’ the U.S of A will you still be trying to… Act like a white boy pretending to be black?
And, “Do you understand that you are a sand n—-r who emulates white boys’ renditions of black male hood?”
It seems like it never ends.

When Skai Jackson, a 14-year-old Disney Channel star, tried to calm the rampaging British rapper, Banks turned her fury on her.
Azealia Banks needs to simmer down a little????????

This isn’t the first time Banks has used Twitter to harass public figures. In April, Banks tweeted about how she hoped Sarah Palin would be raped.
Banks’ actions on Twitter begs the question of why she has not been suspended. This kind of harassment is in clear violation to Twitter’s Terms of Service and would get a normie banned faster than they could say “Anita Sarkeesian.”
How come Azealia Banks is allowed to launch astonishing vile racist tirade when a non-famous person would instantly be suspended? @twitter

For an excuse, Banks linked to an essay that essentially blamed white society for her racism.

@AZEALIABANKS so you insult Muslims, East Africans and uk music and now it's the white mans fault ? Pathetic

Banks has been dropped from Rinse FM’s Born & Bred Festival for her behavior, maybe Twitter will follow suit.
Well, at least she apologized… sort of.

After the media firestorm regarding her tweets, she went nuclear on her Twitter account, deleting everything except a short video and this tweet making fun of Skia’s body.
