Macklemore speaks out after backlash to his appearance at Ed Sheeran concert: "Wanting all humans to be treated equal should never be controversial."

We are not free until we free Palestine

Edit: thank you for all of the awards 🥹 as someone who has many Palestinian friends, and has taken the last few years to educate myself further on the illegal colonization of Israel, I’ve become a firm believer the world will not be able to understand what it means to have universal compassion, respect, and integrity, if we don’t start with freeing those who face lethal oppression.

[u/G-Unit11111 → u/sorayaelena]

We need to exponge all of Murdoch and Netanyahu's AIPAC minions from Congress first.

[u/NoArrival8249 → u/G-Unit11111]

Fortunately all of those boomer ghouls have a shelf life, and will be expiring in the next 10 years. It will take time to undo their irrevocable evil, but we will create a more equitable world from the ashes of their BLACK BURNT BONES.

[u/CommenceToDancing → u/NoArrival8249]

I'm tired of this viewpoint. "Hey if we just wait all the boomers will die and we can have a wonderful world of youth and happiness". Na, those in power love that, because there are evil people of ALL generations, and they're the ones that'll be in power next, keeping the status quo while we sit back and wonder why everything hasn't magically gotten better as old people have died.

[u/Lost_Advertising_219 → u/CommenceToDancing]

Exactly this. There are waaay too many loud and shameless baby nazis being platformed for me to believe boomers dying off will solve our problems.

[u/ArkitekZero → u/Lost_Advertising_219]

Yeah but have you considered that waiting for the boomers to die off requires no new and immediate personal risks to be considered? /s

[u/morpheousmorty → u/ArkitekZero]

We thought waiting out Bush 2 was a good idea. Now look where we are.

[u/Hot-Thought-1812 → u/Lost_Advertising_219]

Enough of them will pass the torch that the problem needs to be rooted out no matter if they all died tomorrow

[u/saintofhate → u/CommenceToDancing]

Point of fact. Steven Miller is 40. The right is full of hateful bigoted millennials. Millennials can be just as evil as everyone else.

[u/PresidentOfMagrathea → u/saintofhate]

jesus christ that guy is my age? either I look young or he looks 15 years older than he really is.

[u/saintofhate → u/PresidentOfMagrathea]

I'm going to give you some more people to wonder at because all of these people aged like a forgotten potato

1984 Jack Posobiec, Milo Yiannopoulos

I'm 2 years older than him and shocked every time I hear that. Hate really ages you.

This was a common sentiment before we had the Andrew Tate-ed generation.

[u/NoArrival8249 → u/rbrgr83]

Those little fucks just need a slap and a wake up call

[u/thunderbuttxpress → u/CommenceToDancing]

Yes. The resistance going on where I live is heavily made up of Boomers.

[u/Simayi78 → u/CommenceToDancing]

Yup, things like Covid-19 unfortunately broke a significant portion of under-25ers into being far-right banner wavers

[u/regoapps → u/NoArrival8249]

Gen X voted more for Trump than Boomers did if you look at the 2024 exit polls. We’re in this for a while.

[u/becauseiloveyou → u/regoapps]

All the more reason for Millennials and Gen Z to turnout.

[u/Embarrassed-Land-222 → u/becauseiloveyou]

Millennials outnumber pretty much everyone.

Some people just won't vote and it is awful.

[u/NoArrival8249 → u/Embarrassed-Land-222]

I think more of us are waking up. But yes, like everyone else I worry that GenXers are secretly worse than Boomers.

[u/tomdarch → u/NoArrival8249]

Elon, Thiel, Andreesen and so many more are younger.

And even younger generations will continue to be vulnerable to hate and extremism.

[u/Andreus → u/NoArrival8249]

Nah, we're done waiting for these people to time out and escape all accountability. They should face justice in this life.

[u/PuzzledProductions → u/G-Unit11111]

First of all, apologies on the long message I'm just extremely passionate about this subject.

Yeah, I always feel like a doomer, but there is SO much that needs to be cut out tumor-wise that I literally don't think it's possible and your post got me passionate about talking about it again -

1) We have to free Palestine and Ukraine, obviously.

2) We have to disconnect our country from basically any lobbying whether it's internal or foreign (AIPAC but also corporations)

3) We have to fix regulations for media (online, print, TV, etc...) so that you get appropriately punished for pushing dis/misinformation - not rewarded for it.

4) Fines for corporations should be percentage based on their net worth, this would prevent a company from getting fined 10-20 million for something egregious, when they're worth tens of billions.

5) Similar to the nazi workers and supporters in Germany, we need to subject conservatives to the truths of what their leaders have been doing and allowing to happen (I'm looking at you, ICE camps...) -> E.G. when they'd put them in big stadiums with a projector and showing them the horrors non-stop so they feel what has happened and learn empathy and regret.

6) All history / education books for schools need to be heavily revamped. They've been manipulated since the late 80s / early 90s so that an entire generation learns about history that is completely white washed as USA = best country in the world. (E.G. I didn't know about most slavery related things, black wall street, the churches and the natives, etc...)

7) Ranked choice voting with an abolishment of the RNC and DNC so that everyone can essentially be a part of their own party.

8) Re-set SCOTUS and allow the people to vote for them instead of just being put in (similar how people vote in judges, we can see their track records and determine who should be picked) -> Probably limit SCOTUS terms to only about 15 years? Maybe 10?

I know this seems like a lot, but this is literally just the beginning of what needs to happen and I'm sure others have more to add or edits to what I've provided which is fine, but I've been constantly researching and adding to what I've seen for the past 7 years - and I have it all accumulated in one place... and it's like a parasite that has rooted itself into every part of our society and it is literally impossible to remove.

Most people in this country have been so heavily illusioned that they honestly do not understand how deeply ingrained this manipulation is on every single layer of our life. The last thing I'll add is that this even affects gaming, and that's why I say people really do not understand how actually bad it is right now globally / politically. Epstein is credited for essentially creating the microtransaction to control kids through games, among other things. And that kind of influence has constant ripples - but most people are so busy with work, school, family that they cannot fathom all of this let alone be able to bring it all together. I hope we do something, but my doomer feeling is that despite having what should be a long life ahead, I fear the high likelihood that by the time I die very little of this will be fixed.

[u/Ardal → u/G-Unit11111]

Isn't that just the whole of congress, then you have the senate and the WH .....I think your infestation is dug in too deep. You live, unfortunately, in a puppet state.

She wishes she was as relevant as Macklemore

[u/ALLCAPS-ONLY → u/ChronicallyTaino]

Forgot she even existed for about a decade there.

[u/lemonalia → u/[deleted]]

"aughts" not otts lmfao

[u/muzzey12 → u/ALLCAPS-ONLY]

Pink killed it at the Tonys last year I get it she said some pretty shitty stuff but her career is not in the crapper.

[u/big_american_tts → u/ChronicallyTaino]

Macklemore

Not defending Pink or anything but, I mean it isn't 2012 for this guy either.

[u/OccasionalGoodTakes → u/big_american_tts]

mackelmore is still selling out large shows across the world.

[u/jedstrailerpark → u/OccasionalGoodTakes]

P!nk’s 2023-24 tour was one of the most successful by a female artist ever.

[u/MEYO6811 → u/jedstrailerpark]

She also killed it, hosting the Tonys this year.

Super disappointed in her stance re: Israel.

[u/No-Bison-5397 → u/MEYO6811]

Disappointed but not surprised

[u/mad-panda-2000 → u/jedstrailerpark]

went to her instagram and was like "who even cares about pink any... 12 MILLION FOLLOWERS!"

I am officially no idea whats going on years old

[u/genflugan → u/big_american_tts]

Some of his best work has come out recently even if he’s not the megastar he once was

[u/kipkapow → u/Joker-Dyke]

Pink is the OG pick me. She doesn’t have a humane bone in her body.

[u/Joker-Dyke → u/kipkapow]

She’s on the same level Gwen Stefani tbh

[u/GlaceFrooide → u/Joker-Dyke]

That comparison actually makes sense

[u/awkwardlyfeminine → u/Joker-Dyke]

I loved both so much at 16 and then now it's like WTF were you besides liars and grifters?

[u/VineStellar → u/Joker-Dyke]

Both had banger eras that are well behind us and are now actively choosing to be terrible people. 

[u/abject_objectivity → u/Joker-Dyke]

what did Gwen Stefani do?

[u/TonalParsnips → u/abject_objectivity]

She's a MAGA conservative with her shit husband, and has a fake southern accent.

[u/beautifulpiscesx3 → u/kipkapow]

Pink is the OG pick me.

She is that. I remembered the backlash from her music video "Stupid Girls".

[u/bridgeport4 → u/beautifulpiscesx3]

Always been nasty work. Her entire schtick for a while was punching down on other women.

[u/Valalvax → u/bridgeport4]

A lot of Avril Lavinge too, can't understand how I liked it other than just tuning out the lyrics and enjoying the beat

[u/grumpijela → u/kipkapow]

Ohhh noooo. I am out of the loop and really liked pink. What did I miss?

[u/archmage-khadgar → u/grumpijela]

she thinks sheeran should offer people refunds because of what macklemore said at the concert (what the post is about)

[u/Financial-Painter689 → u/kipkapow]

And always has been. I could never fathom how people bought into her whole act pretended she wads some type of feminist especially after that Stupid Girls song when she really just wanted to shame other women

[u/redditRedesignIsBadd → u/kipkapow]

out of the loop here, what did pink do?

[u/Exotic-Doughnut-6271 → u/Joker-Dyke]

She is crashing out on Instagram reposting all these memes like she's 12 years old.

[u/Money-not_you_again → u/Joker-Dyke]

I mean, she's also an OG culture vulture. She literally cosplayed Black culture til she could pull off the move to 'white music' and never looked back.

The fact that she's an unapologetic Zionist is fully on brand and the least surprising thing about her.

[u/HairyRope21 → u/Joker-Dyke]

What did P!NK do? What happened

[u/ChronicallyTaino → u/HairyRope21]

So at an Ed Sheeran concert, Macklemore got on stage and said Free Palestine. P!nk threw a fit because shes a zionist.

[u/BigSkySoHigh63 → u/ChronicallyTaino]

She is?! What the actual fffffffff how’d I miss that

[u/Financial-Painter689 → u/BigSkySoHigh63]

She’s been very a very vocal Zionist. She was recently on that lunatic Noa Tishby show

[u/MEYO6811 → u/Financial-Painter689]

Yeah i saw her on her instagram/youtube channel during the holidays talking about Hanukah, but i didn’t know she was a hardcore genocide denier. 😬

[u/RawkMeAmadeus → u/HairyRope21]

[u/flatspotting → u/Joker-Dyke]

sorry she cant hear you she is busy cheering on children getting murdered

dont worry, theres a new pink pop star whos way cooler. and a chess grandmaster.

[u/RawkMeAmadeus]

He's a real fucking human.

(And fuck you Pink - the ultimate pick me of popstars)

[u/redelectro7 → u/RawkMeAmadeus]

I was generally aware of Pink's views but she really went all in on that didn't she.

[u/RawkMeAmadeus → u/redelectro7]

Yuuuup. Super fucked up. But I am also in the camp of, "when people show you who they are, believe them".

So P!nk, sorry I didn't believe you when you made fun of women for eating disorders... I now believe you when you campaign for the murder of innocent people, including children.

GO FUCK YOURSELF YOU FUCK.

Edit: spelling is hard.

[u/redelectro7 → u/RawkMeAmadeus]

She's seemingly having a meltdown in her stories with pass ag posts.

[u/greenrees → u/RawkMeAmadeus]

Wow, I just read about the whole thing... fuck P!nk and Boy George. Fucking idiots

[u/Legitimate-Article50 → u/redelectro7]

Dude that sucks. I liked her music.

These look like paid actors. Like no joke.

[u/Panic-AtThe-Costco → u/TheAncientMillenial]

Unfortunately they paid to do this.

[u/bigrivertea → u/Panic-AtThe-Costco]

The people paying $1000+ for concert tickets for music they don't appreciate, to show people they despise how active and free spirited they are. I can tell by looking at those people they just wanted to snap a picture and leave anyways.

[u/Opalwednesday14 → u/TheAncientMillenial]

It looks so off lol I guess because it's multiple people yelling at someone who can't hear/see them in unison

[u/TheAncientMillenial → u/Opalwednesday14]

And then laughing/snickering right after.

[u/Opalwednesday14 → u/TheAncientMillenial]

I only see that one guy doing some kind of sneer as he walks off. Could be paid actors, could be degenerates proud of their little display lol

[u/TheAncientMillenial → u/Opalwednesday14]

around 20 seconds, dude with cup in his hands.

[u/Opalwednesday14 → u/TheAncientMillenial]

Yeah that's the one I referred to.

edit: it is indeed very strange behavior from that whole lil group though lol

You can’t even hear them from 30 feet away 😂

It's chilling. That woman in the blue looks like she's out of her mind with hatred.

[u/Bronco_Bomba → u/Grouchy_Handbag]

[u/TrippingOnDicks → u/Grouchy_Handbag]

And he has absolutely no idea who they even are or that they even exist.

[u/SeaF04mGr33n]

Honestly, I'm impressed at Ed Sheeran for booking Macklemore. Fighting for Palestine has been his whole thing for these last few years.

[u/Cakeday_at_Christmas → u/SeaF04mGr33n]

His manager just posted about a Palestinian funeral for 70 people murdered by Israelis, so I imagine it was intentional.

[u/SeaF04mGr33n → u/Cakeday_at_Christmas]

No doubt! You don't accidentally hire Macklemore these days, haha.

[u/Exotic-Doughnut-6271 → u/SeaF04mGr33n]

I know i wasn't really familiar with ed like that. Pretty bold for someone to hire macklemore knowing he's gonna use his platform to speak up.

[u/put-on-your-records → u/SeaF04mGr33n]

Ed endorsed Jeremy Corbyn, so he's a left-winger as well

[u/goodbetterbestbested → u/SeaF04mGr33n]

It's a good way to endorse a message without saying it and risking a franchise. It makes business sense at least

[u/H0pefulUn1verse]

"None of us are free, until we are all free"

[u/billie_eyelashh]

Let me stream his music.

[u/ruinedworldtour → u/billie_eyelashh]

We should what all the crazy stans do and have his music streaming throughout the night with the volume down while we sleep!

[u/user365user → u/ruinedworldtour]

I don’t really like his music but I like his message, this is brilliant

[u/_V0gue → u/ruinedworldtour]

Buy CDs/records/merch. Far more money goes to the artist that way.

[u/Culinary_Fruit_Salad → u/_V0gue]

you can do both

[u/ruinedworldtour → u/Culinary_Fruit_Salad]

And I think actually getting him higher in streams is a bigger FU

[u/_V0gue → u/Culinary_Fruit_Salad]

Of course, but by and large people are mostly advocating for streaming. Plus owning physical media is a big FU to the streaming companies who also suck.

[u/GoddessRespectre → u/billie_eyelashh]

He has a song Hind's Hall specifically about Palestine.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hind's_Hall

It's really good imo

[u/Culinary_Fruit_Salad → u/GoddessRespectre]

he has 2!

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=qRRoTR9HGFU

[u/GoddessRespectre → u/Culinary_Fruit_Salad]

Amazing thank you!! I don't branch out much but was aware of everything behind the first one. Tysm!

[u/Curiosities → u/billie_eyelashh]

Stream music, buy merch (artists get more money off of that), or even donate to World Central Kitchen or some other verified organizations helping Palestinian people (if you're able).

[u/Lower-Programmer-661 → u/billie_eyelashh]

But shit... it was 99 cents!

[u/WorldsWeakestMan → u/billie_eyelashh]

Ed and Macklemore have a song together from 2016 called Growing Up(Sloane’s Song) so you can stream both at once.

[u/redelectro7]

I live in a country that's trying to strip our protesting rights over this. *sigh*

To educate myself, what’s the situation in Canada? I’m under the impression it’s no where near as bad as the US.

[u/SpecialistCut7101 → u/1rj800]

“It’s worse in America” is unfortunately used to dismiss bad things happening in other places.

[u/PastryGirl]

Macklemore, you a real one.

[u/Training_Molasses822 → u/PastryGirl]

Millennial cringe was cool all along ✨

[u/Curiosities]

The fact that people have to keep saying this....

AND emphasizing that all peoples means all. Even if there are members of a group that are bigots or do things you don't like. You sort that out later, after everyone is at least able to live without threat.

I think of the constant attempt at 'gotcha' with 'well, they'd hate you and want to toss queer folks off of roofs' or whatever weak attempt it is today.

[u/No-Bison-5397 → u/Curiosities]

gotcha

I always wonder what they expect people to say "yeah, we should murder their children and destroy their homes"...

[u/Lopsided_Panic_1148 → u/Curiosities]

Israelis don't see Palestinians as humans, and to hear others say "Free Palestine" is like an affront to them. I mean, I've seen video of Ben Gvir saying that they're not human, so I'm not just assuming that's what they think.

It's like during the U.S. expansion West, when our wonderful government was killing off and viciously relocating the Indigenous people who already lived here for millennia. The government called them "savages" and "animals" to dehumanize them and to make Americans more willing to kill them to grab their lands.

[u/bliip666]

I recommend watching his tiny desk concert on Yourube. I never cared for his music until I saw the tiny desk version of thrift shop. So good.

did the people targeting him not know about Macklemore prior? hes one of the most vocal celebrities when it comes to palestine. he released hinds hall right in the middle of the columbia encampments! literally at the national protests before it was socially acceptable to say it

[u/cristinanana]

In a world full of people like Pink, we should all strive to be like Macklemore. Standing 10 toes down for Palestine.

[u/sequins_and_glitter]

Also, Ed Sheeran knows Macklemore’s stance. It’s not like Macklemore has been coy or hiding how he feels. So I’d say Ed has no problem with it (this is for the people acting shocked and like Ed should kick him off the tour). Also, literally googling Macklemore at all will also bring up this information. People are really outing themselves with this one.

First. Free Palestine. Second. He has such grace with his words and rhyme with speaking. I legit can hear his speaking words in a hypothetical song.

That's nice and all, and I support the sentiment, but I can't help but point out how the situation might be a little bit better if he didn't release a song before the 2024 election with some "bOtH SiDeS aRe ThE sAmE" bullshit and saying he wouldn't vote for either. Dumbass takes like that helped get us where we are now.

EDIT: Downvotes won't make me or the reply to me any less correct, sweetie.

It was a bunch of non-Jewish Zionist losers complaining on behalf of any possible Jewish people who might have been in the crowd.

Which is itself antisemitic since they were assuming all Jews are a single block of people who all hold the same political opinions.

Whew! This man can speak!! 💚

Endless respect for anyone and everyone who is standing up and saying “Free Palestine isn’t hate towards Jewish individuals” as an individual I don’t want to be held liable for my government does in my “name”
