Ed Sheeran did not boot Macklemore. The promoter, a subsidiary of Robert Kraft, did. And Ed Sheeran does not support Israel's genocide, he just doesn't come out strongly against it because he tries to keep politics out of his music. That's a mistake, sure, but it doesn't make him the bad guy.

@randahl
Waiting for Ed to quit.
In the meantime, the concert attendees are gonna show their own true colors

@randahl This is truly remarkable; silencing one voice does not silence the truth. Sometimes, one courageous voice inspires others to rise up with it. 🇵🇸🥹

@randahl I just hitted the "don't play this artist" button on Spotify

@randahl as Nye Bevan put it, “People who walk down the middle of the road get run over”

Let’s hope Sheeran reflects on projecting neutrality in the face of genocide - and starts by educating himself

@randahl

Own goal of the century: Ed Sheerans Israel Genocide Support.

No support whatsoever for
Ed She ran
here, disgusting piece of work has earned a full boycott..

Mackelmore did not "condemn genocide",

he did a nazi salute while wearing a false big nose (jewish caricature)

@randahl A classic example of the "Streisand effect".

Mackelmore has put Gaza, and the genocide that is taking place there back in the public eye.

If he had been ignored then only those attending the concerts would have heard his point of view.

Now the whole world has been reminded of the government of Israel's attempts to eradicated the Palestinian people.

@randahl I didn't know they could do that. There's not a contract?

@randahl Maybe Pink should step up and open since she caused all this.

@randahl A lot of spin is incoming, just remember it's to avoid consequences, not because of some genuine change of heart. When he thought he could get away with it, he didn't care.

When people reveal who they really are, believe them.

@randahl thanks for explaining why my timeline suddenly was negative to Sheeran..

@randahl Ed Sheeran is the living meme of the pretend moderate who sets a middle ground between genocide and no genocide.

@randahl I wasn't aware of Ed's support for Israeli nonsense. I shall do my part and remove him from all playlists. 🤷

Who in their right mind support that state?! 🙄

@randahl what a turnaround. I just read Macklemore’s statement which was very well put and which is a great example of critique with leaving the door open for change.
