JUST because Ed Sheeran is choosing EPSTEIN'S FRIENDS over his Own Friends DOESNT mean you can be MEAN to HIM!

-Every Right Wing Blogger soon!

Bigger picture, I would love to know who the people behind all of these concert tours are, and the stadiums etc. All the people making the big money aside from the artists.

There could be better organised boycotts.

Casey Wasserman and Robert Kraft to start. They aren't being ignored while people rightfully criticize Sheeran.

[–] scrubbles@poptalk.scrubbles.tech 42 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I personally love that overnight Kraft's name became common knowledge. Perfect Streisand effect. It's also why Ed did have sway in those negotiations, and why he is extra shitty for not using it at all.

He’s had a huge media presence in New England since the patriots first one the Super Bowl. But the Epstein connection is newer and more important to highlight. Along with the Zionist support.

100%. A lot of shady people operating from a comfortable distance.

That was a good video. Joins a few more of the dots.

That presenter is very good and I was surprised at the end that he knew Ed Sheeran personally but didn’t hold back. Well, maybe just a little.

Ten minutes long, for anyone wondering.

His friends are tied to Epstein. His business associates are tied to Epstein. Israel is tied to Epstein.

His name isn't in the files so far, but you know what they say; "If a dozen people are at a table, and 11 are nazis, there are 12 nazis at that table."

Sheeran would have been the same age or younger than the girls on that island. But that doesn’t excuse his associations since.

Taylor Swift's PR team urged her not to criticize Trump, and she was capable of doing some criticism there.

After stoking the fires of white supremacy and racism your entire presidency, you have the nerve to feign moral superiority before threatening violence? -Swift's X account.

Trump's calculated dismantling of USPS proves one thing clearly: He is WELL AWARE that we do not want him as our president. He's chosen to blatantly cheat and put millions of Americans' lives at risk in an effort to hold on to power -Swift's X account.

Donald Trump's ineffective leadership gravely worsened the crisis that we are in and he is now taking advantage of it to subvert and destroy our right to vote and vote safely. Request a ballot early. Vote early. -Swift's X account.

Meanwhile Ed Sheeran is out here protecting billionaire pedophile and supporting the genocide in Palestine? Israel has killed over 73,000 Palestinians and lost only 3,000 of their own. The facts are overt at this point. Ed Sheeran is a coward.

Taylor Swift's wedding included Zionists who defended genocide.

[–] Babalugats@feddit.uk 6 points 1 day ago

from 2025

Does Taylor Swift support Israel? Silence and fan backlash

I bet her next tour has handpicked artists supporting her, and they will all be contractually obliged not to mention anything about Palestine.

Wasserman's emails to Maxwell are nightmarishly cringe.

TL;DR: Wasserman was having an affair with Ghislaine Maxwell.

Debbie Wassermassen Schultz's cousin?

[–] LSNLDN@slrpnk.net 10 points 1 day ago

Can we start calling him Ep Sheeran or idk

[–] ianhclark510@lemmy.blahaj.zone 17 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Epstein is implicated with Ed Sheeran? Sheesh, you think you know a guy

[–] Shadow@lemmy.ca 20 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Not directly... First paragraph of the article

Ed Sheeran is facing a fresh wave of online boycott calls after Casey Wasserman, the entertainment executive behind the agency representing the singer's North American live work, was linked to Jeffrey Epstein-related records, with one database listing 109 flight records involving Wasserman.

Seems like he should fire him

Looking forward to Ed both-sides-ing pedophilia

[–] Maeve@kbin.earth 2 points 1 day ago

Casey Wasserman. Debbie Wasserman. They're all rotten.

[–] xc2215x@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Things continue to get worse for Ed Sheeran.

[–] mPony@lemmy.world 5 points 18 hours ago

he might have to learn a fifth chord

[–] radiofreebc@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago (1 children)

There are gonna be some good deals on loop pedals in the near future.

[–] mPony@lemmy.world 2 points 18 hours ago

like just before spring break in any college town
