@PaulBranch1234@denboy372 It becomes a Humanitarian crisis when people like you condone a GENOCIDE.
Which humanitarian law allows for violence on innocent bystanders during a conflict?
For the sake of Humanity, Educate yourself!
Those who choose to be ignorant do so at a detriment to entire Humanity.
@PaulBranch1234@denboy372 Just so ignorant people like you can use the victim card once again to deny a Genocide that has been ongoing since 1948.
If as you say Hamas is the target, why are women & children being raped, tortured and imprisoned.
You give pity to these monstrous acts?
HUMANITARIAN CRISIS
@kaanapalibreeze@Lou__007 How's that for weird semantics:
Targeted
Pressured
Threatened
All for 2 words that give light to a Genocide and a Humanitarian crisis
@kaanapalibreeze@Lou__007 The tour promoter was also caught up on this "targeted" plot as they were pressured to drop Mackelmore from the tour and threatened that Kraft would pull out from the other venues which would have left MTG with severe financial losses and legal implications for breach of contract
@PaulBranch1234@denboy372 Ed Sheeran's "apolitical" stance π
Do you guys hear yourselves?
You mean his hypocritical stance - Where he supports concerts and raises funds for Ukraine War?
To correct you further: Genocide is a humanitarian issue and not a political one!
H-U-M-A-N-I-T-A-R-I-A-N
@PaulBranch1234@denboy372 Thats a complete lie.
There was no direct "warning-then-refusal" sequence reported between the artists.
Mackelmore was cut because Kraft THREATENED to pull out of the rest of the concerts.
Sheeran have more fans? You mean the pro-genociders. Yeah, Birds of a feather...
@JHarwoooood@BenGrahamUK If Ed had learned that lesson he would not be labelled a hypocrite.
I do oppose you on 2 points,
1. When we see injustice we should have the courage to speak out
2. We should educate ourselves on what is right lest we be labelled amongst the ignorant
@Harry_ThePeace@Lou__007 Correction: They did not ask him to keep the concert 'politic free' otherwise he would be in breach of contract
And if they had done - he would have refused to attend
Hence my argument as to why the anti free Palestine movement was targeting Mackelmore use of artistic expression
@kaanapalibreeze@Lou__007 So you don't deny the notion that the organisers targeted Mackelmore?
You just gave a watered down version of saying Ed's loyalty lied with his paycheck.
He could have told Kraft you can't bully my artists, this is my show.
The fact that he didnt shows no backbone. Puppet strings
@PaulBranch1234@denboy372 organisers deny him performing this particular track?
No, they waited until his was global stage to make him an example to all artists but it backfired and Ed showed he could not take a stand for what is right
@PaulBranch1234@denboy372 For one to grasp a concept you must understand a situation.
Let me correct you.
Mackelmore was invited.
Ed and co always knew Mackelmore's opinion & he expressed himself in every concert. He has a track dedicated to pro palestinian supporters who were oppressed. Did Ed or the...
@Nervana_1 Better form of amazement - Why would you post something so degrading and make yourself look like a fool?
Ceases to amaze me why people oppress their own souls and consider they are making a "valid" contribution to society and a perceived "intellectual" comment.
@iratespecialyst Art is a form of expression and limiting an artists ability to raise awareness to injustice is to oppress to all artists.
Musical art cannot be limited in its expression and if you would like to do so then start with the violence, explicit profanity, racism, misogyny in art!
@iratespecialyst The stories continuously repeat. Industry artists are consistently being targeted with HUGE paychecks from Israeli backed companies. The only caveat is "we own your political opinions"
Very few artists have the ability to stand up to corruption like Mackelmore did. Good on him

@Lou__007 Mackelmore did not bow to the platform nor the money & his resistance to not be silenced will go down in history.
While targeting Mackelmore, Ed inadvertently drew negative attention because he was caught in a cross between Money vs Truth/Unity/Brotherhood. We know Ed's choice
@Lou__007 Mackelmore has repeatedly expressed his support for Freedom of Palestine
Has it occurred to you that those who support a Genocide used Ed Sheeran to invite Mackelmore onto a huge platform so they could corrupt his support for Palestine through greed of a huge pay check [1/2]
