Rapper Macklemore is a vocal supporter of Palestine and Gaza residents. During a recent concert at MetLife Stadium, he yelled “Free Palestine!” onstage, projected images of devastation in the area, and performed protest song “Hind’s Hall.”
Now, it seems that American venues are not willing to play ball with the Seattle artist, and he has been dropped from Ed Sheeran’s Loop Tour.
“After discussions with stakeholders, Macklemore will not be performing on the remaining support dates,” according to Messina Touring Group, the promoter of Loop Tour. This news follows backlash from organizations like StopAntisemitism and others, such as pop star Pink.
Exactly. It’s so convenient to just start calling all men as rapers (because: they have penises!). Thus, all who disagree with this illogical term swap - are “siding with rapers”.
Like, before the invasion, putin has made all the official national media be spreading anti-nazi and neo-nazi campaign (presenting all ukranians as “nazi”). Thus, putin is not killing the ukranians - he is allegedly “fighting the neo-nazi”. How convenient!
The same way people who object juggling with the term “genocide” or who refuse to side with the motto “from the river to the sea” (urging to destroy Israel) are readily accused of "supporting genocide”. Also convenient!
Nah, i’m not buying this “anti-neo-colonial history revisit”. It has a simpler explanation: revanchism.
oh there’s a fallacy for this! to make a claim so erogenous in an attempt to make the other person’s point seem objectively bad because it’s ‘connected’ to the bullshit your spewing! :D
Also:
You are welcome!
i gotta reply to this cause it’s funny
you’ve for no counter to my argument so instead you point out my mistake with the yors
… completely missing my dumbass mistaking egregious for erogenous lmao. like dude I set you up to get a really decent insult on my intelligence but you chose the other one
So it’s not a phallusy to make a really erotic claim in the hopes of getting my opponent to be negatively associated with my sensuous position?
Omg, i can’t believe the phallusy has come this far!
I’m sure your dumdass didn’t preplan for any mistakes, dumb or funny (sure it was funny, and the following phallusy is a better one) - and it would be nice to hear the real argumentation.
Israel should not exist. From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free. This is a chant to end the supremecist ethno-state and replace it with a state that respects all ethnicities and religions (much like existed before the zionists came to the region).
Also here’s a reminder that Israel bombed a synagogue in Tehran that is older than zionism.
You fail to understand not only the genocide (which is happening, but not as the hamass and other populists suggest). You also ignore that you replesent the core issue: the revanchism.
Would you stop putting your sick fantasies above the value of human lives, please?
Palestine, just like Teheran (the whole Iran), deserve to be free from vandals and terror fanatics in power, killing palestinians and iranians.
You are a western chauvinist to the core. The crusades failed, and zionism is failing too.
Sure, ok. Is the failing zionism in the same room with you? /s
Has it been the failing zionism in Gaza, when hamas has been killing palestinians - even in the absence of israeli?
Is it the anti-chauvenistic “measures” of ayatollahs - to hang and shoot thousands of protesting iranians (was it lately in the beginning of 2026)?
Well, I don’t think so. Barking up the wrong tree, probably.
Hasbara bullshit all you got to spew? No one with any sense believes that crap anymore.
You’ve just claimed that it’s bullshit that palestinians and iranians are being killed by their local oppressive regimes (also bullshit?! Omg). Not a single doubt about these facts (i.e., information being checked and confirmed by trustworthy recognised sources) - but only swearing back? Is that really how you respond?!
That’s how i know you don’t really care about the lives of palestinians nor iranians. I’m not interested in your agenda.
This is the rhetoric of a typical war crimes enjoyer. You refuse to mention the clearly documented genocide of Gaza. You don’t mention the extensive war crimes of the US. You just push hasbara agenda talking points. This is no longer effective on anyone paying attention to reality.
Okay, should have checked your accout before I engaged.
My guy you really need better hobbies than posting troll comments on Lemmy. This is just kinda sad.
I’ve checked yours too. Here is a reminder (you might appreciate): if you say shit like that, but aren’t israeli youself, then you don’t actually give a shit about palestinians or your government making mistakes in Gaza, you’re just jumping on the bandwagon because it’s cool to hate Israel.
That doesn’t even make grammatical sense, but okay. Enjoy your le epic trolling little guy.
Sorry (and glad) to disrupt your bubble!
I’m also amazed at how happily and willfully many in the West fall victims for populists’ agenda and can’t talk like…civilised humans 💁
Mate, thanks! I have a couple of hobbies already)
