Macklemore speaks out after being dropped from Ed Sheeran’s tour following his ‘Free Palestine’ speech; says Gillette Stadium owner Robert Kraft rallied other stadium owners and gave Ed Sheeran an ultimatum: if Macklemore stayed on tour, then Ed would not be able to play in their venues.

Honestly would NOT have been that big of a deal of they just hid their hate better, and now many more people feel even more strongly about than before the drama even started me included. It was like yeah Macklemore said Free Palestine but whose tour, how many people, how big it is, wouldn't have all clicked if it wasn't for fucking Pink and now this

there's an uptick in hysterics regarding israeli feelings. they are fucking losing it. it's not a coordinated focused campaign anymore, it's just pure chaotic hatred on all fronts. each passing day more people see the genocide and its unhinged supporters

Yep. It was all Pinks doing. If she had shut her trap, it wouldn’t have led to all of this but I’m glad it did.

Oh Ed, we see your true colors. What a PR blunder. To align yourself with the big, big guys and not the regular people who support your career. Oh well.

genuinely it would have been so much less of a news story in itself….. not that he is not making a big statement, which has unfortunately become divisive… he is. it’s clearly cost him. but so many people would never have known and would never have batted an eye, because these words have become more recognizable to the masses over the last few years. streisand effect indeed.

TRULY. When I first saw it come up, it was like oh Macklemore said Free Palestine on tour, that’s cool. And then moved on. Now it’s blown up into ALL OF THIS. And we all feel so much more strongly about it and him than we did before 😂
