Khloe‘s post was originally shared by Jerry Seinfield’s wife, author Jessica Seinfield.
Jessica wrote alongside it: “If you don’t know what to say, you can just say this in your feed.”
She also urged fans to sign a change.org petition for adidas to drop its partnership with Kanye following his string of “anti-Semitic” comments.
Kanye sparked global outrage with his comments about Jewish people earlier this month.
On October 7, he wrote on Instagram: “Ima use you as an example to show the Jewish people that told you to call me that no one can threaten or influence me.”
Several days later, the rapper tweeted: “I’m a bit sleepy tonight but when I wake up I’m going death con [sic] 3 On JEWISH PEOPLE.”
Defcon is a military term used as an alert system by the US armed forces.
Under the Defcon 3 warning, the military must be prepared to launch operations within 15 minutes of warning.

Khloe’s sister Kim – who filed for divorce from Kanye in February 2021 – has not yet commented publicly on his behavior.
Khloe appears to be the first of the Kardashian clan to condemn the Yeezy mogul on social media.
SOCIAL MEDIA BAN
Twitter removed Kanye’s “anit-Semitic” tweet and also confirmed his account has been locked “due to a violation of Twitter’s policies”.
During an interview with Piers Morgan, the father-of-four refused to apologize for his tweet.
After Piers asked if he felt sorry, Kanye replied: “No, absolutely not.”
Piers told him he should apologize and then later asked: “Racism is racism and you know that I think, don’t you?”
“Yes, obviously, that’s why I said it,” Ye said.
The host asked for confirmation: “So, you said it knowing it’s racist?”
“Yes,” replied Ye.
“I fought fire with fire. I’m not here to get hosed down. I’m a different type of freedom fighter.”
YE SPEAKS OUT
Ye eventually acknowledged that he caused “hurt and confusion” to people who were affected by his rant after two hours of Pier’s probing.
“I will say I’m sorry for the people that I hurt with the ‘def con’ … I feel like I caused hurt and confusion.”
This comes shortly after Kanye’s Instagram account was suspended when the fashion designer posted screenshots of a conversation that claimed to reveal a conversation with rapper Sean “Diddy” Combs.
In the conversation, West made allegations he believed Combs was being controlled by Jews.
Kanye texted: “Ima use you as an example to show the Jewish people that told you to call me that no one can threaten or influence me.”
He captioned the Insta post, “Jesus is a Jew.”
The argument was triggered after Kanye sparked outrage when he wore a T-shirt with the words “White Lives Matter” at Paris Fashion Show on October 3.
