Ed Sheeran here had a chance to be a hero to everyone who believes in humanity and human rights. He could have cancelled the tour for all the venues being explicitly pro-genocide and moved the concerts to other venues in the area. He would have made less money, yes. It would cost him a few fans, but he would've gained so many mlre. Instead he caved like a building built out of cotton candy in a short rain shower. And now I've sanitized my playlists from p!NK and Ed Sheeran music, these two have shown themselves to have no values. P!NK being the worst by far by actively picking the side of the oppressor. I'm done with her. Fuck Israel. Free Palestine one hundred times!

Ed Sheeran could have done the better thing and used his platform for good hadn't he been a spineless coward.

What a spineless, snivelling Zionist bootlicker Ed Sheeran turned out to be.

At the moment macklemore only has a single performance lined up. But maybe we should put our money where our outrage is and keep an eye on https://macklemore.com/shows/

I'm eagerly awaiting the free speech defenders of the right to take up this cause!

Kudos to Macklemore, and for shame to Sheeran

Macklemore the goat!

Been going back through and listening to a lot of rap from early 2010s, and I forgot how wonderful and outspoken a lot of them are. Lupe was speaking out against the bombings in gaza since Obama was in office.

Ed is a fucking coward, this is known

If you are not against then you are pro. Ergo, Ed Sheeran is pro-Genocide kind of person.

Thankfully Ed Sheeran will refuse to play as well, in support of his musical peer. Right?

Fuck Ed Sheeran and his promoters, got it. I feel it's important that we acknowledge that the focus should be on Sheeran and his team for their cowardice in this situation, and not focus too heavily on Macklemore. What he did is the bare minimum we should expect from those in the spotlight. Being against a genocide should be so fucking basic it isn't news, and being in support of a genocide should be so disgusting that it ruins a person's entire reputation.

Dixie Chicks all over again

I’ve seen AJR in tour twice. Once in 2022 when they did their OK Orchestra Tour. There’s a song in there called “3 O’clock Things”. The lyrics at the end of the song are:

Isn’t this obvious, am I insane? Let’s blame our parents ‘cause they taught us their ways Stay out of politics, stay on the fence Stay out of all of it to keep half your fans Isn’t this obvious, am I insane? There might be two side to everything that you say It’s all a bit cloudy, but there’s one thing I know That if you’re fucking racist then don’t come to my show.

Then a breakdown and everyone in the crowd screamed that line.

AJR is definitely not as big as Ed Sheeran, but they have been very open about supporting the left, performing at Joe Biden’s inauguration and refusing to go to Trump’s. I wish more artists had a backbone. It’s not like you’re going to be poor and broke. They have all the leverage. It would be so easy for them to make a change.

Never like that dude since he agreed to go on game of thrones and just throw off the vibes.

such as pop star Pink.

Is Pink some kind of authority on oppressed peoples of the world?!

Macklemore made a banger about being thrifty.

He's good folk, it turns out.

Robert Kraft should sell the team and buy a soccer team in israel where he can actually be patriotic instead of pretending to do so for America while propping up a terrorist state.

Fun fact, all Israelis are required to take part in their genocidal military. So they are all military targets. Just like they say about the babies they kill. Those Israeli students will one day be in the Idf, so free reign right? Let’s be consistent.
