    Remember, if this was about anything other than himself, he would have brought Macklemore back on the tour and dared the stadium owners to cancel; the thing he should have done in the first place.

    He’s “concerned” about billionaire stadium owners controlling what is said on stage, but he’s still letting them do it. So, apparently, not that concerned.

    He’s still a coward, he’s still trying to couch his limp-wristed support in justifications like talking about how “complex” the issue is, or how he wants to throw some pittance of money at charity groups as if that makes all the difference.

    Fuck Ed Sheeran. Whiny little manchild needs to grow the fuck up.

    How brave of him to speak out now that it’s in his financial interest to do so. So brave!

    Always warms me heart to see some mainstream scumbag reveal their true colors as soon as their wealth is threatened.

    Regular people really need to stop supporting their bullshit.

    I love how the situation in Gaza suddenly became unjustifiable to him after the backlash he got. As soon as his wishywashy fencesitting hurt his profits, suddenly he flips.

    He doesn’t care about Palestinians in Gaza… he cares about his ticket sales. That’s his moral conviction, “capitalism”.

      Nah, the headline is doing a lot of heavy lifting. I saw a video of his “apology” and he was still both sidesing it.
