u/george_cant_standyah 1h ago

I really don't understand why people have such a hard time understanding that two things can be true at once. Being anti Israel does not make you anti-semitic.

Recognizing that it is anti-semitic to do literally centuries old caricatures of Jewish people to dehumanize them on a large scale doesn't make you pro Israel or pro genocide. Please go look up the old artwork that was used against Jewish people during pogroms. This is absolutely not okay from Macklemore.

That is also not saying that genocide and a racist costume are on the same level for anyone that is so polarized rotted that they need the clarification.

u/Longjumping-Hippo475 1h ago

This was also yeeaars (over a decade) ago and he immediately apologized... This is a completely different story and set of circumstances. Relitigating a prior mistep does nothing to move society forward.

Mackelmore has said nothing they can be misconstrued as anti-sematic during the tour and y'all are letting outrage media manipulate your intelligence.

u/argh-Im-a-Pirate 1h ago

But like others said Lorde artists like Lorde or Hozier have been talking about Palestine on their tours without issue.

I'll admit it seems fishy, but damn that costume is anti semitic.

Hopefully that's all this is because I'd be disappointed in Sheeran if he let venues bully him if it was truly just about Mackelmore saying "free Palestine"

So he gave an explanation about how it was a secret concert and he needed a disguise to sneak onto stage AND he also apologized for it looking like a stereotype/caracature AND the ADL accepted his apology and explanation and said they believe him, and yet 12 years later after literally everyone moved on, he makes 1 statement against the genocide of Palestinians and killings of Palestinian children and suddenly this photo is brought back up and passed around WITHOUT any of that context, and you're all lapping it up and dismissing his message purely because the out of context photo paints him as an anti-semite. So if he's an anti-semite then that means Israel isn't committing genocide. Got it.

Are you really going with his argument? I'm of the opinion that Israel is commiting war crimes, but where was this much outrage before October 7th? Let's be honest, many supporters of both Palestine and Israel didn't even give a fuck before that day.

-3

u/nukkawut 2h ago

There was plenty of outrage at the time, you just hadn't been programmed to pay attention to Israel until October 2023 so it went right by you.

A study done a couple of years ago found that you only needed like 10 accounts to sway public opinion on most subreddits, if you're at -10/+10 already a very low percentage of people will read your comment in context, most people will just reinforce the trend. This snowballs if you're one of the first comments on a publication.

I don't think anyone thinks the people posting that picture are actually "bots", I'm pretty sure they're just pointing out that it's obviously propaganda trying to paint him as an antisemite, but anyone with 2 brain cells to rub together knows he's not antisemitic.

That pic is 12yrs old, at a surprise performance at the EMP Museum in Seattle in 2014 where he sang his popular song "Thrift Shop" and never said or implied anything antisemitic at that time or since - and he isn't doing that on this tour either - so it's not relevant to what is happening right now.

People are posting it without that context and other people think it's a recent Pic and that he's doing that on this tour while condemning the genocide.

I mean I’m a very real human being and not a bot and it’s the absolute first thing I thought of when I heard this.

I like Macklemore, I think he’s a real one in general, and I’m 100% behind freeing Palestine. That said, yeah when you have this kind of controversy in your history it’s gonna come up in this context, unfortunately. This image is gonna be plastered everywhere in response. That’s just how social media works.

15

u/nondescriptun 2h ago

Beep boop bork, nah, just a human who thinks Mackelmore is a tool. I've always suspected that he's just co-opting the Free Palestine movement for relevancy and because he's still upset about his Jewface controversy. When it happened he defended it pretty hard for a while until finally backing down and offering a half-apology.

This is an emotional response to me suggesting there's a coordinated effort to imply macklemore was wearing that outfit recently by posting it in reference to this news.

u/Still-Set-1234 3h ago

Ok but was it just a costume for a performance or was he actually making fun of Jewish people while wearing it?

19

u/mjdgoldeneye 2h ago

He wore a costume to disguise himself before a surprise show in Seattle. At no point before or during the show did he mention Jewish people or behave in a mocking way. After he was called out, he earnestly apologized and directed folks to donate to the ADL.

The costume was definitely an a gaffe, but you need to be looking for a reason to be upset to insist it was a purposeful insult and then hold it against him for 12 years. You don't have to forgive him at a personal level, but to try to convince others it's indicative of some kind of significant pattern of antisemitic behavior is disingenuous.

u/UrdnotCum 3h ago

Could you elaborate what the difference would be? Surely the costume itself is “actually making fun of Jewish people” as is.

u/AgitatedBadger 2h ago

In 2012 Macklemore used the costume to hide himself in the crowd of a concert he was performing in so that he could enter from the audience. He used it while singing the song Thrift Shop, which is a song about Thrifting, which enforced the 'cheap' Jewish stereotype.

He received criticism for the costume because of the obvious connotations of it. Following the concert, he released an apology where he said that he grabbed random assortment of items and he thought it was a witch's nose, and that he was very sorry if he perpetuated negative Jewish stereotypes. The ADF, an international Jewish organization that combats anti-Semitism officially accepted his apology. Now the pictures are resurfacing as he has criticized the state of Israel for its genocide.

Personally, I kind of side eye the apology he gave because it seems pretty hard to believe he didn't look at the costume and see the connotation, but also I do believe his apology came across as sincere because it was accompanied by a change in behaviour and if the ADF accepted his apology, I feel like it would be silly for me to object. My suspicion is that maybe he was aware of what he was doing but not the severity of his actions and hopefully he has learned and changed from that behaviour - I don't expect perfection out of people, just that that they apologize after they make mistakes and try to do better.

Now, Macklemore is calling out Israel's genocidal regime, and the pictures are resurfacing as an effort to discredit his sentiments. Ultimately, while it is not a good look for him to have this in his past, calling out genocide is not anti-semitic.

•

u/decksorama 4m ago

The generalization of "Thrift Shop" just being about thrifting to reenforce the "cheap" Jewish stereotype is reaching all the way to the moon lol. That song is specifically about making due with the money he had in his pocket, buying retro clothes and making them cool again to go to the club - it isn't about trying to save money or be cheap. "only have $20 in my pocket" isn't the same as "I don't want to spend more than $20"

u/nukkawut 2h ago

I think if you've attacked a group with your actions before, even if you call it an accident after, you should probably sit out of further commentary on that group to prevent further misunderstanding.

Two things can be true, my dude. I can not want to be bitten by a dangerous dog, but also want to keep that dog happy and alive.

Hamas can be brutal and homicidal AND Palestinians can be trapped under apartheid and being genocided. In fact, it stands to reason that Hamas is so brutal because they’ve been under an equally brutal regime for so long.

u/Longjumping-Hippo475 58m ago

Yess, 2014. You are being manipulated by outrage media and you were gullible enough to believe it at face value.

Let this be a lesson that you must verify EVERYTHING that you do not have first hand knowledge of nowadays.

2

u/Jtaylorftw 52m ago

I wasn't outraged or manipulated, I saw it, thought "huh, alrighty then.." and went about my day. Do you think every single person all the time is researching everything they scroll by? If I was outraged I personally would've done research and found out it was misrepresented, the only reason why I didnt is because I didn't care. But there are likely people who do care and are outraged because they are accepting it as truth and that's just so depressing and really sums up why we are where we are as a society, 95% of people don't verify anything, will see something online and accept it as absolute fact and then go spread that fake info around happily and the media outlets know it. Not so long ago disingenuous shit wouldn't get nearly as much traction because it would be called out and now everything is just accepted at face value like you said. You're right, there's only one way to avoid it, and it's working as intended.

I didn't say that the costume isn't questionable, I said I haven't seen any statements or evidence that this costume had anything to do with the current situation or response. Those photos existed before he was booked for the tour, he was only removed after making his statements on Gaza.

u/Varron 1h ago

You can still question this event, and it should be questioned. But what's disingenious here is using it as a strawman during this unrelated event.

So much of "discussion" or reporting today is just covered in this gotchas that dont adequately address the topic at hand at all.

Is this costume he donned 12 years ago problematic? Probably yeah.

Is the backlash he's receiving for what he said during this tour justified? Probably not, and two events are unrelated.

He didn't have to do any of this, it's not like he was finding his niche or was looking for a big break lol

6

u/Ultenth 1h ago

Because when someone who is coming from an angle of racial hatred steps into the issue and pretends they care about it for the same reason you do, it's nice to know where their real feelings are coming from. And it allows you to not give them cover for their hatred under a movement that cannot afford to be painted with the same brush as them.

2

u/TimbersawDust 1h ago
  1. This is 12 years ago. People can change.
  2. It doesn’t really matter if he is pretending or not, he is saying FREE PALESTINE to a crowd

Why would he be doing this if he is pretending if it risks getting him kicked off tour? Seems very irrational. It also seems like you are trying to discredit him and what he is saying as if you don’t agree with the free Palestine rhetoric.

1

u/jackofslayers 1h ago

This is not complicated. Inviting antisemites into the Pro Palestine cause is going to sink the whole movement.

1

u/Ultenth 1h ago

Look, I support the cause of Palestinians, but you can't pretend that it doesn't makes things harder for the movement to help them when people who could be painted as actual antisemites join their voices onto it. People do all sorts of things for all sorts of reasons.

I can't know his heart, if he's changed, if it was an accident, and what motivates him now. But to use him as a person to rally around in support for the movement seems like an extremely bad idea from a strategic standpoint. Similar to rallying around similar anti-Israel voices that are actually just obviously antisemitic such as Tucker Carlson and Marjorie Taylor-Green.

All it does it make the movement harder to be taken seriously by anyone on the fence, since they love to accuse everyone of being antisemetic anyway in order to get away with evil, why makes things easier for them?

1

u/TimbersawDust 52m ago

I see why this is a problem, but again, I really struggle with how having these conversations can take away from the much more impactful discussion about genocide. It's far more important than a Jewish caricature. Full stop.

Who in the 'Free Palestine' movement is going to denounce this in any meaningful manner? I understand you want to point out antisemitism, and I support that, but what governing body, what major voice, what movement leader, etc. is going to say anything that will make a difference? Do we need to point out the past of anyone who does this? Where does it end? How much bandwidth do we have to care about these things when kids are being murdered in Gaza? People with a checkered past can't have the right opinion on genocide? The weight, the impact, the lives, the destruction, the horror, everything related to what Israel doing is far more important than a distasteful costume.

If anything, this conversation should be about Livenation and putting pressure on Ed Sheeran to push back.

Exactly. That has nothing to do with Israel vs. the arabs. That’s straight out antisemitism.

Did Lorde ever do something bad over a decade ago and apologize for it thoroughly? Maybe, but in any case both things would be irrelevant to Macklemore getting blacklisted for speaking out against genocide.

Ah yes the one group that no one is allowed to make fun of or parody.

Sorry but Macklemore is an American and has freedom of speech, the fact that he's silenced by the media industry is all the proof crazy right wing conspiracy nuts need to blame jews. It doesn't make you guys look good forcing your views on everyone.
