These lyrics with the melody of "Shape of You"
A stadium isn't the place to silence a brother
But you caved to pressure from above (Mm)
You and your team at the label makin' calls
Droppin' him fast when things got slow (Mm)
And Kraft came over and started up a campaign against your friend
And trust me, you should've taken a stand now (Mm)
Take a breath, stop, put your principles before the profit
And show some solidarity, instead you're singin' like—
'I'm in love with the shape of compliance
Profits over people, that's my reliance
I'm in love with the shape of silence
When they come for #Macklemore, I show defiance...'
Wait, no—you didn't.
You chose the check over the message,
Let them exile him for sayin' 'Free Palestine'
Now the stadium's empty where your backbone should be.
1/2
#FreePalestine 🍉

Shallow, vapid, still sticking with coward Sheeran folks - most of us GenXers would not be kind to you. We lived through the time when Green Day refused to play homophobic venues. They stood up hella hard for the openly gay, super fantastic, punk fellows, Pansy Division ❤️❤️🤘❤️❤️
Anyone still supporting Ed Sheeran is a fucking fool. Remaining Sheeran fans are hallow as fuck too, with spineless backs. Cowardly, shallow ass muthafuckers - like their ZioGingerGod 💩🤮Lacking in strong character or integrity. Hooray for your solidarity there ⚪️🗑
Fucking volunteer pisspots for shitbucket celebs.

Re Macklemore
"We must keep prising the fingers of the billionaire class off our throats until it is only the discredited & morally bankrupt who refuse to speak loudly in opposition to genocide."
During 3 years of Israel's genocide in Gaza, "the corporate world has maintained its grip over the West’s cultural spaces in part to conceal its own complicity in those crimes."

Meanwhile #EdSheeran lets his fans eat cake. And they love it, and it’s no problem, and we’re all very happy now with cat pics and gardening.
And the liberals that MLK warned us about drink high tea in tall and ivory towers, looking down while the fires and the floods and the plebes rise up.
How high is your view? How fierce is your fortress of place and order and meritocracy and birth lottery? Will it be enough?
That pounding on the door is the opening set for the “I’m not political” crowd.

Agi: Cosa è successo tra Ed Sheeran e Macklemore? La star parla di Gaza dal palco: "Dispiaciuto...
AGI - La popstar Ed Sheeran ha dichiarato che la situazione a Gaza e' "ingiustificabile", in seguito a un'ondata di critiche che lo ha travolto per non aver sostenuto le dichiarazioni pro-palestinesi del rapper Macklemore, che apriva i suoi concerti.
"Cio' che sta accadendo a Gaza e' catastrofico, ingiustificabile e sproporzionato", ha affermato il cantante britannico, aprendo il suo spettacolo a Philadelphia senza Macklemore, escluso dal 'Loop Tour' dopo aver gridato "Palestina libera" durante un concerto nel New Jersey all'inizio del mese. "Ho dovuto prendere decisioni difficili, sto commettendo degli errori e mi dispiace immensamente", ha aggiunto Sheeran visibilmente commosso.
Lo stop al silenzio sul conflitto e le parole per la Cisgiordania
Sheeran, che finora aveva mantenuto una posizione apolitica sul conflitto israelo-palestinese, ha rotto il silenzio e ha denunciato "cuori spezzati dall'entita' della devastazione e dalla perdita di vite civili, di bambini".
"Inoltre, l'ingiustizia sistemica a cui stiamo assistendo in Cisgiordania non puo' essere ignorata", ha aggiunto dal palco a Philadelphia, nel primo concerto dopo la controversia che ha visto coinvolto Macklemore.
Le proteste dei fan e l'appello al boicottaggio del tour
Sheeran e' stato criticato per non essersi opposto all'allontanamento del rapper dopo che aveva gridato "Palestina libera" durante uno spettacolo precedente, finendo nel mirino dei sostenitori pro-Palestina che hanno lanciato appelli al suo boicottaggio.
Alcune decine di dimostranti hanno organizzato un presidio pacifico fuori dal Lincoln Financial Field prima dello spettacolo, sventolando bandiere palestinesi e scandendo lo slogan "Palestina libera". Alcuni fan diretti allo stadio hanno ammesso di aver esitato a partecipare a causa della controversia, ma alla fine hanno deciso di esserci e godersi la musica; altri, invece, hanno cambiato i loro piani.
"Estendiamo il nostro appello al boicottaggio dell'intero tour mondiale di Ed Sheeran, incluse le prossime date in America Latina e la tappa europea non ancora annunciata", ha affermato la Campagna palestinese per il boicottaggio accademico e culturale di Israele (Pacbi).
What happened between Ed Sheeran and Macklemore? The star speaks of Gaza from the stage: “Sorry…”
Ed Sheeran has stated that the situation in Gaza is “unjustifiable,” following a wave of criticism for not supporting pro-Palestinian statements made by rapper Macklemore, who opened his concerts.
“What is happening in Gaza is catastrophic, unjustifiable and disproportionate,” said the British singer, opening his show in Philadelphia without Macklemore, who was excluded from the ‘Loop Tour’ after shouting “Free Palestine” during a concert in New Jersey at the beginning of the month. “I had to make difficult decisions, I am making mistakes and I sincerely apologize.” Sheeran added, visibly moved.
Silence on the conflict and words for the West Bank
Sheeran, who until now had maintained an apolitical stance on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, broke his silence and denounced “hearts broken by the scale of the devastation and the loss of civilian lives, of children.”
“Furthermore, the systemic injustice we are witnessing in the West Bank cannot be ignored,” he added from the stage in Philadelphia, in the first concert after the controversy involving Macklemore.
Protests from fans and a call for a boycott of the tour
Sheeran was criticized for not opposing Macklemore’s dismissal after he shouted “Free Palestine” during a previous performance, coming under fire from pro-Palestinian supporters who launched calls to boycott him.
Several dozen protesters organized a peaceful demonstration outside Lincoln Financial Field before the show, waving Palestinian flags and chanting “Free Palestine.” Some fans attending the stadium admitted to hesitating to participate due to the controversy, but ultimately decided to be there and enjoy the music; others, however, changed their plans.
“We extend our call for a boycott of Ed Sheeran’s entire world tour, including upcoming dates in Latin America and the yet-to-be announced European stop,” said the Palestinian Campaign Boycott Academic and Cultural Institutions of Israel (Pacbi).
