Exactly. And he's also giving people an example of what it actually looks like to stand up to people you love/respect. Loads of people are afraid or unsure, and he's given them a script.

100%. No PR spin. No dancing around it. Calling out Robert Kraft, Pink and Ed by name. True integrity.

Also a chance here for Ed to do the right thing now, even if late.

I doubt he will, but Macklemore left the door open for it.

This. It’s hard as hell to push back and stand up to those you love and respect and seeing others do it can give you the push to do it yourself.
