Rapper Macklemore is a vocal supporter of Palestine and Gaza residents. During a recent concert at MetLife Stadium, he yelled “Free Palestine!” onstage, projected images of devastation in the area, and performed protest song “Hind’s Hall.”
Now, it seems that American venues are not willing to play ball with the Seattle artist, and he has been dropped from Ed Sheeran’s Loop Tour.
“After discussions with stakeholders, Macklemore will not be performing on the remaining support dates,” according to Messina Touring Group, the promoter of Loop Tour. This news follows backlash from organizations like StopAntisemitism and others, such as pop star Pink.
So Ed Sheeran is a piece of shit, eh?
“American Venues”
Not sure who’s calling the shots here
EDIT:
The rapper alleges that Gillette Stadium owner Robert Kraft gave Sheeran an ultimatum.
Nothing says “good guy” like compromising your principles for money, right? tf is your argument here?
It’s likely not up to him as he has contractual obligations that could ruin more than just his own livelihood.
The whole system is fucked. Rotten to the core
EDIT: these replies are peak left self harm.
Macklemore: free Palestine
NFL Stadium Owners: drop Macklemore or we’ll cancel your show
label and tour management: we can’t lose all these venues, so Macklemore has to go
Lemmy community: how could Ed Sheeran do this??
Like, how about we point our anger at the people actually causing the problem, instead of the guy trying to salvage his tour in a no-win situation because of racist fucks
Ed Sheeran has an estimated net worth of around $350 million to $400 million
Won’t somebody think of the millionaires? His whole livelihood is at stake here!
And it’s not like his livelihood is even at massive risk - he’s a big enough name that any arena worth his time to perform at will be big enough that there won’t be other acts available that will sell enough seats at short notice, so they’re pretty likely to cave if he puts his foot down.
THIS is the part that gets me. Ed could have come at Kraft and the other venue owners and threw some hate to ticketmaster for good measure and probably come out fine
I don’t really care about him, but this line of thinking creates assumptions and expectations that are almost never going to be met. He is one of the wealthiest musicians, he isn’t just a performer, he is a businessman. If he was willing to risk or limit the success of his brand for his views (assuming his views are pro palestine), he probably wouldn’t be in the position he is in.
At the end of the day, it is a mainly systemic issue, not an issue of moral failiure. Some individuals will push against the systemic currents, but this will always be the exception, not the rule.
The only way to combat systemic issue is by changing/replacing the system through collective action, not individual action. Ed Sheeran chancling his tour in solidarity with Palestine would not stop western nations from supporting israel. The only way is a nations citizens collectively applying pressure.
If becoming one of the world’s wealthiest musicians requires prioritisation of your brand over improving the world in ways you absolutely have the power to do, then becoming a wealthy musician is absolutely a sign of moral failure. It’s also not even necessarily detrimental to the brand to associate it with acting morally - that only made Dolly Parton more beloved.
Macklemore did it, why can’t Sheeran do it too? Because he either doesn’t hold these views, or he likes money more. Simple.
You can even use the publicity of being cancelled to talk more about the issue. It’s not hard when you have a spine.
And the truck & bus drivers, catering, roadies, grips, crew, wardrobe, sound guys. You think he puts in all the work himself?
Listen I’m not defending Ed Sheeran’s decision here but don’t forget it’s not always about JUST his money - he personally knows a shitload of people who are going to lose their next 18 months’ income without much recourse if he bails now, who aren’t millionaires. Tour work is literally gig work.
Sheeran has more than enough money to pay those people out of pocket for any dates that canceled.
And the truck & bus drivers, catering, roadies, grips, crew, wardrobe, sound guys. You think he puts in all the work himself?
No. You think they only work for him?
It doesn’t even sound like it’s his decision. Seriously, how much agency do people really think musicians have over their performances, venues, lineups, etc.? That’s all handled by record labels, agents, managers, etc.
If the venue says “not so-and-so” and the record label says “okay,” there’s literally jack-shit that the headliner can do about it…
He has enough of a name to start his own label.
Yup. People seem to be ignoring the part where I specifically said “more than his own livelihood”.
And this isn’t even touching on the impact to future contracts. Venues and other businesses don’t want to sign contracts with people who have shown a willingness to breach agreements for personal or political reasons.
Did you not read the part where I said “more than his own livelihood”? Or did you just choose to ignore it?
There are so many more people than just Ed Sheeran who would be hurt by him breaching his contract. Everyone working that tour would be hurt. Likely hundreds of people who are doing gig work for this tour.
That’s so American: 100’s of Americans might lose their paycheck, so we can’t do anything to protest the 1000’s of non-Americans getting killed.
please quote where I said “do nothing”.
because “don’t do this” is not the same as “do nothing”
Why would Ed Sheeran be breaching a contract if he hadn’t caved? The arena owners were threatening to refuse to let him play, they would have been them in breach of contract, not him.
source on that please?
Everyone working that tour would be hurt.
Stop FUDing, they’d get another gig, it’s literally their job.
yeah I mean who cares about people losing their jobs, you just go get another one, easy 🤡
Those same contractual obligations should apply to the stadium owners.
Is he responsible for his obligations if the stadium refuses him? Sounds to me like he would have made an effort to meet his contract, but someone else refused him.
Honest question, I have no idea how these things work, but have a hard time believing Sheeran had no choice but to give in
Separate contracts. Sheeran’s contract and Macklemore’s contract are unlikely to be contingent on each other. Plus there are probably terms in the contract regarding conditions under which the venue is allowed to break the contract “for cause” which Macklemore’s situation likely breaches
I would tell the “system” to get bent. Ed Sheeran doesn’t have to do anything. It’s his tour, if they don’t want to allow him to perform over human rights, that’s on them.
If this is true, I’m going to remove every Ed Sheeran song from my music library.
good thing the earth is so tiny and most of the universe completely misses this shit.
Because Ed could personally payout all of the staff working on the tour and cancel it. Because “Staying Neutral” is really just siding with oppressors. Because in a no-won situation you want to support the people who are currently being genocided and not venues paying you big bucks to keep quiet.
You are right we should be calling out the people actually causing the problem, but Eds decision actively helps them continue causing said problem.
If the venue is giving him an ultimatum then he clearly has the agency to tell them no. Otherwise they would be executing the contract not making demands.
Macklemore was quite clear in his post: He blames Robert Kraft and not Ed
If Robert Kraft and the other stadium owners break tour contracts over a “we don’t like your opener” thing after they already signed, it’ll be huge fees and possibly a lawsuit. Ed Sheeran had leverage here and he didn’t use it.
His record label had the leverage and chose not to use it. There’s very little say the artists themselves actually have in these kinds of things.
This isn’t some starving artist we’re talking about here. This guy already has more money than you’ll make in your entire life working an honest job.
Does that give him any more agency in what transpires between his record label and the venues where he’s booked?
Yes it does. His fan base is what shows up and pays money in the first place.
He already has a name, time to cut loose?
All them big name artists could put their money where their mouth isn’t and build a venue, i’m sure it wouldn’t make Bono any poorer.This is, actually not a bad idea. Someone send this to someone like Jack White. Get together a bunch of top musicians to actually fund the creation of a network of publicly owned venues. They can share resources and even pay artists real wages for performances. Call it a public option. Just needs the seed money
You realize their record labels hold all their IP, don’t you? So they cut loose and go indie and build a venue. What happens when their old label tells them they can’t play any of their music?
Didn’t Taylor Swift have similar issues?
I’m guessing bad publicity would be a deterrent for those labels. I guess poor ol’ Ed would have to create new stuff too.
It’s not like Macklemore has been quiet about his stance on Palestine. If it were a problem with Ed Sheeran, he probably wouldn’t have been on the tour in the first place.
Yeah but Sheeran is willing to bend the knee to keep the tour going. A real one would apologize to fans and let it be known it’s the venue owners cancelling shows and why.
It’s not like he’s some Indy act who won’t get more shows.
Ed Sheeran would never play the United States again if he pissed off Robert Kraft and the stadium owners (and LiveNation along with them).
Glad the US isn’t the world (unless you’re murican).
Sometimes it’s about more than money. There’s plenty of non stadium venues he could still tour at.
Ed is a brand, not a talent.
Watch. If he had refused to go on without Macklemore, these guys would’ve said “oh the rich baby didn’t want to go on because Macklemore said Palestine” or some shit.
Blame the rich fucks for their crimes; don’t invent new catch-22s to hang on them.
If “these guys” you’re talking about are Zionists, then I don’t think he should care what kind of vitriol they try to brew up for him. In fact, pissing them off is often the correct stance.
…and then Sheeran chose wrong.
So a piece of shit
zionists are calling the shots in “american venues”
According to Macklemore, Sheeran was told by venues to cut him, or cancel the whole tour. Sheeran tries to remain non-political as part of his brand. But it really feels like we’re up against the sad point where, if just saying “don’t genocide people” makes you “political”, then refusing to be political makes you a piece of shit.
I think a lot of artists are still riding this line between staying safe and potentially nuking their entire career. I won’t act like that’s an easy decision for anyone to make, but obviously looking from the outside it’s easy to see what the right decision is.
Time will tell. There’s still time for Ed to walk out on stage at his biggest show of the tour, throw a fist in the air, and say Free Palestine. I’ve had zero thoughts about him up until this point, but that would at least give me one shred of respect for him.
There’s still time for Ed to walk out on stage at his biggest show of the tour, throw a fist in the air, and say Free Palestine.
Honestly, this would flip the tables on the venues (ahem, LiveNation)…they’re ok throwing their weight around to get Macklemore dropped from tours, but Ed Sheeran is making them tens of millions of dollars…they would probably shut the fuck up if he did this.
Adam Sandler: He’s not going to though
Chris Farley: No, but you can imagine what it would be like if he did.
I know precious little about him, but he sounds like a real dick.
Robert Kraft is the piece of shit here
The articles made it seem like the venues forced Sheeran to drop macklemore. Sheeran may not have had a say.
He could tell the venues if they wanted to cancel his opening acts, they could cancel his show, too. That would require someone to have principles, though. 🤷♂️
he can play somewhere else
I realize that the state of touring venues is pretty fucked up, but someone with his sway is the only kind of person who can say “you know what, no, fuck you guys”
He sounds famous. I think he has some say. Of course so do venues, but I’d expect Ed Sheeran to have no problem finding other venues.
My conclusion from this is that Ed Sheeran supports genocide and that Macklemore is cooler than I thought.
a piece of shit for ditching a racist?
oh you’re ok with the racist i get it
Speaking up for Palestine isn’t antisemitism.
Saying that Israel is a genocidal country isn’t antisemitism either.
Genetic testing has shown that the Palestinians are, by and large, Canaanites.
They are by default a semitic people.
TIL Macklemore is based
He always has been. Naturally, his one goofy song about thrifting is the one that went viral.
Eh Same Love also blew up from that album which, while woke, is also pretty corny. The album also famously won the Grammy over Kendrick Lamar so I’d say his other songs got their fair share of fame.
The Grammys being trash is nothing new and also not really Macklemore’s fault
On the other hand, I’ve got no argument at all that a lot of his music is corny af, but even when he was at his most cringe he was still trying to be a good dude at least
For sure, I was just mentioning the Grammy thing in terms of popularity. And yeah it does seem like he puts his money where his mouth is on social issues.
WHEN I WAS IN THE THIRD GRADE, I THOUGHT I WAS GAY
Even the goofy thrifting song is based as fuck. It’s a rejection of fast fashion and manufactured style in favour of joyous self-expression on a working class budget.
Even his thrift shop song is based. The song is about recycling and not buying overpriced brand shit (can’t even call it designer shit when it’s a plain T with a Gucci logo).
His one goofy song about thrifting was EXTREMELY well made to be fair. Funny lyrics, funny video, very distinctive beat. Having Wanz do the hook was a great choice, his voice is like a change in gears.
He is, but also a really corny dude to the point where he gives right wing pundits someone to point and laugh at. I know he is genuine and wants to put eyeballs on issues, however he sometimes came off performative about it which turns people off unfortunately.
Nah, fuck that. What you’re calling corny is just sincerity. Leave that irony poisoned “caring about things is cringe” bullshit to the right wing chuds.
As I said, it’s unfortunate people take someone’s sincerity the wrong way… I’m glad he is doing what he is doing 100%.
I like some of his songs about Palestine, but this guy put out songs specifically targeting Biden/Harris saying he won’t vote for them.
This guy helped Trump win.
Edit: from Hinds Hall: “The blood is on your hands Biden, we can see it all. And fuck no, I’m not voting for you in the fall.”
wow, he is a good guy after all and not just some blue maga freak, good for him.
Your right, it’s good Trump won. Things are going so well.
Edit: Both sides are the same, right everyone?
do you know that tweet where that one guy is like, “i like waffles” and another guy replies saying “so you hate pancakes?”
i hope thats enough to say but the liberal mind is incomprehensible to me so idk.
Stokeholders?
The stakeholder has a name.
Macklemore has been dropped from Ed Sheeran’s tour after he says New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft organized a boycott among stadium owners over the rapper’s remarks in support of Palestinians.
Awful nice of the corporate media outlet to hide the name of one side while blasting the other.
I’m surprised Bobby Kraft wasn’t too busy getting a rub ‘n tug from a massage joint
I don’t know how they could plead not guilty when they have video footage of him getting tugged and blown on two separate occasions, they recorded his car and plate and did a ruse traffic stop on him to get him to provide his ID to an officer in the car
We live in a oligarchy and he’s a billionaire. Also the population has the working memory of a gnat and have no concept of boycotting anything. Especially if it could cause the slightest inconvenience.
The cops were locked in 100% that it was trafficking until the billionaire was caught in the web then it was all misunderstandings and mistakes. And no, it’s not conspiracy that the ladies all got enough money to not talk. A fucking billionaire doesn’t go to jail because our society would rather lick their feet.
He was expecting to have his shit nepo child running the city of Boston and building him a stadium. Sine he obviously lost kraft needs to spend his free time doing something since his best buddy epstine isn’t around to keep him busy with unfettered access to poor people’s kids.
Fuck Robert Kraft and his cock-puppet, Ed Sheeran.
Fuck Sheeran. Rat-faced little bitch
Talk about being on the wrong side of history, Ed and Pink.
Thank GOD these Venues are going after ANTI SEMETISM by going after artists who
Have songs LITERALLY PRAISING HITLER!say Bombing Children is WRONG!Yeah, the fact that one of the venues refusing Macklemore just let Kanye West play two shows is straight-up hypocrisy.
Only one of those guys has made public statements praising Hitler. (As far as I know, at least.)
It’s not hypocrisy, they are consistent in their horrible values and ideology.
Sorry Ed, but there’s no such thing as being “apolitical” anymore. Willingness to ignore the current reality is a political statement in and of itself, and a terrible one at that. If you aren’t willing to seize this moment and stand up for what is right, you can go the fuck away.
I get that it wasn’t his decision whether or not Macklemore got booted, but it was his choice not to go down with the anti-genocide ship, and he did so because he doesn’t want to lose the pro-genocide cash.
Apolitical is just a conservative who doesn’t have the balls to say they’re a conservative.
Being apolitical in a democracy is in itself a paradox at best and a clear sign of hipocrasy at worst.
A society that requires citizen participation in governance and one chooses to be ignorant? Absurd.
People on Lemmy suck, Internet … never change
Macklemore explained that the decision came after a week of “difficult conversations” with Sheeran, a friend of 13 years whom he considers a “brother”, though “as I told Ed multiple times on the phone, our friendship can’t change my responsibility to tell the truth about what happened.” According to Macklemore, Sheeran was under pressure from stadium owners rallied by Robert Kraft – the owner of the New England Patriots and their Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts, where Sheeran was next slated to play – to drop Macklemore from the tour, lest the English singer be barred from their venues. “Ed was in a fucked up position,” the rapper wrote. “He knew it. His typical apolitical stance was being challenged in a way it had never been before.
https://www.theguardian.com/music/2026/sep/14/macklemore-dropped-ed-sheeran-tour-free-palestine
This Kraft dude seems like a stand-up guy.
In 2019, Kraft was among 25 people facing first-degree misdemeanor charges for soliciting prostitution at a day spa. His attorney electronically entered a not-guilty plea, and later submitted a court filing where Kraft waived arraignment, pled not guilty to all charges and requested a jury trial.
In 2026, it was revealed that Kraft had kept a relationship with child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein and that Epstein had recommended Kraft use his lawyer to defeat the charges.
Of course this Epstein class cunt is doing this shit
People in New England have despised Kraft long before the rest of the country, like New Yorkers and trump
I think Ed Sheeran is a big enough deal that the stadiums would lose out more than he would if he called their bluff, and they’d likely cave. They’re not going to be able to book another artist for dates that soon that will sell comparable numbers of seats.
Ed should provide the same message at Kraft’s stadium that Macklemore made.
Sheeran has enough influence to change this, if he actually cared.
The fact that he hasn’t shows that he doesn’t.
Sheeran chose a side
if you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice
Classy statement. Left unsaid but there for all to see, “my brother didn’t have my back”.
It’s endlessly surprising to see who among the already famous are going be on the right side of history. I love Macklemore now. And Dua, and the too-small group of other high profile artists who are speaking up even though there is a cost.
I wasn’t about to read but that’s a great excerpt, especially since I know just how much of a piece of shit Robert Kraft is and is good to know he’s the real evil here.
I don’t have a very high opinion of Ed Sheeran, but if anything I’m surprised a little by Macklemore’s conviction here. It’s not so much that Sheeran is a spineless coward (I mean, he kinda is but at least I see why), but that Macklemore is… kinda badass for speaking up. I had a meh opinion of him too but it’s moved up a little.
they won’t let you stay in the middle forever. it’s not a safe pick they’re trying to push everyone off the fence all the time it’s a key element of extremism.
His typical apolitical stance
No such thing as neutrality, he’s just taking the side of the oppressor.
TL;DR Ed Sheeran is a fascist.
Woah woah that’s a bit harsh.
I would say Ed is a subhuman invertebrate ghoul who has somehow been cynically shitting out lobotomized slop-pop since 2012, and is now limply capitulating to the whims of his pedofaschist handlers. Least surprising heel turn of the century.
“Excuse me. We don’t want people who are anti-genocide here. This is a pro-genocide event only! I brought my kid to the show and he was horrified by people who don’t want to slaughter and maim children and flatten homes!”
Seriously they keep calling it anti-semitism, when in reality there is no act that is more antisemitic than genociding semetic people.
They also call it pro-hamas , or even pro-palestine, when in reality no it’s not pro-hamas and not even pro-palestinians, because there are palestinians who are pro-genocide. There is a group of palestinian armed malitia trained and weaponized by the IOF inside Gaza, and there is the PLO who are paid by the IOF and carry out assassinations under IOF commands against palestinians themselves.
They also call it anti-Judaism, when no… it’s anti Zionism.
So it is an anti-genocide at worst, and anti-zionism at best. And Ed Shreen is a twat. and so is this pos genocidal hypocrite cunt Pink. I hope their fans can see through these soulless genocidal sellout hollywood gouls for who they really are, and shun them for the entirety of their careers.
It’s not Ed Sheeran you should be angry with. It’s the stadium owners. Ed was put in a horrible spot when the stadium owners refused the ongoing sold out tour with Macklemore.
:::
Wrong. It IS Ed Sheeran we should be angry at. Just as much as every other celebrity who shoves their heads in the sand behind the faaaaake pretend-time facade of “ohh, I’m apolitical”.
Genocide is not “political”. It’s an affront to humanity. Those who support it should be fkn executed. Those who pretend to not notice it so they can make a buck are tacitly supporting it. In a perfect world, they would be tacitly executed.
Yeah, look at mighty keyboard warrior over here… Execute every last one of them😂
starting to execute people left and right who doesn’t agree with you isn’t the way to go. Even with the paradox of intolerance in mind
Ed Sheeran should drop out too, the article doesn’t say it was his decision so he should show solidarity. Or Sheeran should do to his next show but show the same video Macklemore showed, then show it at every performance on tour
He likely couldn’t without getting sued for a metric fuck ton of money. What he probably could do though is say free Palestine at his next show and see what happens.
If it the venues refused his show at the last hour because of bringing Macklemore, it’s not Ed Sheeran who would be sued.
Contracts work both ways.
Like in between every fucking song.
I’m eagerly awaiting the free speech defenders of the right to take up this cause!
“Free Speech” was only ever about screaming the N-word in the middle of your State Uni quad, while wearing your Red Cap and waving an American Flag.
You won’t find them here on Lemmy lol
That’s why I like this place so much. We’re all crazy and fight with each other all the time, but unlike other platforms like YouTube and Reddit, at least here we can all agree that human beings deserve basic rights! (for the most part lol)
“stakeholders” decided this, btw, not necessarily Sheeran himself.
reminder that capitalism only ever thinks about “stakeholders” and “profit”
If he wants to keep good will then he should start his concerts by saying free Palestine then.
i don’t disagree
And ed Sheeran, who is immensely popular and will be fine, should just refuse to play the rest of the tour.
“But he has a contraaaaact” don’t wanna hear it.
Thats what gets me. These creative have the platform to stand on business and choose not to
No. He was pressured by the venues and particularly Robert Kraft, lifelong friend of Trump, but made the decision himself.
Being under pressure to do something doesn’t relieve you from the responsibility.
pressured how or for what? this spinless soulless dungtard is worth hundrends of millions already. He’s a pro-genocide pos … no excuse
Is the dancers and backstage operators worth millions? There’s a lot of people working on this show as well as the fans who paid for hotels and travel that he has responsibility for too.
You might say, well who cares about them compared to the thousands being killed, and too that I’d ask you if that changes because Ed Sheeran decides not to have a concert.
Ed Sheeran can play a hundred other venues.
he literally has no problem doing fund-rising concerts for ukraine army… and what’s a fucking concert next to elite university students who risked and lost $80k tutions and deportations and their future careers to stand up for genocide. cannot put a lipstick on a pig
Ed has enough money to pay them out of pocket.
You’re a clown. Don’t post online if you’re just gonna defend those with all the power. Be a good foot soldier and suffer and die in silence like they want of you.
Sheeran’s established enough to have his own opinions.
Fuck this though, sheeran is a fucking human person with a public platform. He has ingested over half a century of socially and politically aware folk music, stripped it of all its depth, context and activism, and shat out gallons of vapid slag that made him unfathomably personably wealthy. Growing a fucking pair of balls on this issue would have been the absolute minimum amount of effort he could have possibly done. Christ, like it would have honestly costed him a fucking cent to speak out against genocide one time. How the fuck are these the people we have chosen to elevate as a society
Didn’t even need to speak out. Just say no and let the oligarch pay the contract cancelation.
Same thing
He didn’t do shit — fuck him.
How would you know that? Or are you just trying to wash Sheerans hands of the cost of this? You work for a marketing company by chance?
If you’re right then they factored in the cost of the backlash that would head toward Sheeran when more than half of all US voters sympathize with Palestine more than Israel, and 70% of Dems sympathize more with Palestine than israel. Once you start looking at younger people its even worse-- Israel has lost that entire next generation. Ed Sheerans listening demographic is primarily 13-27 year olds. So I hope the cost was worth it to Sheeran He’ll be getting less profits now.
i’m trying to say two things can be true at once.
Blame the people who own the stadiums and who chose to do this.
Blaming Sheeran without even naming the group of stadium owners organized by Robert Kraft is kind of misdiagnosing the issue.
There can be more than one issue
There can be more than one way to spin an issue, yes. Such as by creating a distraction to point blame away from the people who are responsible.
Which you choose to spend your time promoting says something about your priorities.
Ed Shereen and his manager and his owners are all are equal pieces of shits. The twat is worth hundrends of millions and he still chooses to be a repulsive sellout who is pro-genocide.
Does he have billions of dollars and a friend group who owns most of the stadiums and concert venues in the United States?
Pretending Ed Shereen and Robert Kraft are equally bad in this situation is disingenuous. One made the decision to blacklist anti-genocide artists and the other didn’t fight him.
Talking about Ed Shereen, in the context of this story, is providing a smoke screen for Kraft and the other owners who are using their wealth to try to control messaging on Israel.
Unless you’re collecting a paycheck to, I can’t imagine how this is difficult to understand.
Okay so your logic says IOF soldiers also have no choice but to enlist and slaughter kids I guess. Does this IOF solider have billions to make laws? Or is it disingenuous to say that the soilder who kills is as bad as his genocidal masters who ordered him to do so?
Your argument fails on every metric. Count with me! that above was 1 . Now 2- I aslo gave the example of university students who lost $100k in tuition and deportations and their future career blacklists. Compared to an established superstar with $100Ms net worth. Who lost more?
Another nail in the coffin against your stupid argument 3- this hypocrite “apolitical” twat ed shitran had no problem doing fund rising concerts for ukraine army. and pink was singing GW Bush how you sleep at night when it was profitable.
no ond gives a fuck about that kraft shithead and everyone knows he’s evil, but ed shitran is complicit like an IOF soldier who kills. There is no genocide without these soldiers.
4- He did not stay silent and not benifit. Ed Shitran and IOF soliders are the literally the ones getting paid to be complict in evil. Ed Shitran profited from genocide by normalizing it.
and wtf are you talking about I’m getting paid? by big billionares from Gaza? omg… lmao im done.
Not even profit. That’s just the permission structure. How often have stakeholders ruined a business or product because it wasnt the market they wanted
If you are not against then you are pro. Ergo, Ed Sheeran is pro-Genocide kind of person.
Black n white. Them and us. The only correct ideology - and the renegades.
These are the prominent features of the fascist ideology. 💁
Some things are black and white though.
Like rape is bad. If you meet someone’s who refuses to “take a side on the rape debate” then they’re just defacto pro rape.
Exactly. It’s so convenient to just start calling all men as rapers (because: they have penises!). Thus, all who disagree with this illogical term swap - are “siding with rapers”.
Like, before the invasion, putin has made all the official national media be spreading anti-nazi and neo-nazi campaign (presenting all ukranians as “nazi”). Thus, putin is not killing the ukranians - he is allegedly “fighting the neo-nazi”. How convenient!
The same way people who object juggling with the term “genocide” or who refuse to side with the motto “from the river to the sea” (urging to destroy Israel) are readily accused of "supporting genocide”. Also convenient!
Nah, i’m not buying this “anti-neo-colonial history revisit”. It has a simpler explanation: revanchism.
oh there’s a fallacy for this! to make a claim so erogenous in an attempt to make the other person’s point seem objectively bad because it’s ‘connected’ to the bullshit your spewing! :D
There’s no need to make the other person’s point seem bad - if it’s objectively bad, though.Also:
the bullshit you’RE spewing!
You are welcome!
i gotta reply to this cause it’s funny
you’ve for no counter to my argument so instead you point out my mistake with the yors
… completely missing my dumbass mistaking egregious for erogenous lmao. like dude I set you up to get a really decent insult on my intelligence but you chose the other one
So it’s not a phallusy to make a really erotic claim in the hopes of getting my opponent to be negatively associated with my sensuous position?
I’m sure your dumdass didn’t preplan for any mistakes, dumb or funny (sure it was funny, and the following phallusy is a better one) - and it would be nice to hear the real argumentation.
Israel should not exist. From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free. This is a chant to end the supremecist ethno-state and replace it with a state that respects all ethnicities and religions (much like existed before the zionists came to the region).
Also here’s a reminder that Israel bombed a synagogue in Tehran that is older than zionism.
You fail to understand not only the genocide (which is happening, but not as the hamass and other populists suggest). You also ignore that you replesent the core issue: the revanchism.
Would you stop putting your sick fantasies above the value of human lives, please?
Palestine, just like Teheran (the whole Iran), deserve to be free from vandals and terror fanatics in power, killing palestinians and iranians.
You are a western chauvinist to the core. The crusades failed, and zionism is failing too.
Sure, ok. Is the failing zionism in the same room with you? /s
Has it been the failing zionism in Gaza, when hamas has been killing palestinians - even in the absence of israeli?
Is it the anti-chauvenistic “measures” of ayatollahs - to hang and shoot thousands of protesting iranians (was it lately in the beginning of 2026)?
Well, I don’t think so. Barking up the wrong tree, probably.
I’m with you on this. Some folks just have a nuanced position on whether the holocaust was a bad thing. That doesn’t immediately make them an “antisemite” or a “horrible human being”. /s
Genocide is fascist ideology, “chosen people” is a fascist ideology, what else you don’t understand?
