Why is everyone hating on Sheeran? Sure his decision is disappointing but I 100% believe him when he says he was pressured by Kraft and management to do this and had to decide and the support acts also don't seem to be bitter about Ed Sheeran, they seem to just make a statement.

I really don't like how Ed Sheeran is getting all the hate. I think Kraft should be the one to get the full shitstorm for this. All of this was 95% his doing, Ed Sheeran just folded.

The tour's got his name on it, and he did not have the back of one of the touring acts

Ed Sheeran just folded.

Yes exactly. That's why he's getting shit.

If he had backbone, he would have pushed back and don't let Kraft decide for him.

Because people with absolutely nothing to lose are always the Bravest Boys.

It's very easy to loudly proclaim how incredibly strong and moral your actions are when absolutely nobody on Earth gives a fuck about them, and gives you a tremendous perch atop the moral highground to accuse others of heresy.

Tis the price of fame and money.

Oh! Won't someone think of the rich people? They get only the best help money can afford. Lucky for them they have you to defend them. So noble. You're a paragon on virtue.
