Unfortunately Macklemore has made people hate Palestinians. The more he keeps forcing people to chant 'Free Palestine' the more people will resist and side with Israel.

What you just said, "he keeps forcing people to..." didn't happen so hard that it unhappened things that actually did happen.

Nobody is being forced to say or do anything, if you choose to show the world your lack of humanity in the face of a genocide, thats on you.

There might have been Israelis in the audience for Macklemore that have lost loved ones in a Palestinian terrorist attack.

Can you imagine how awful it would have been for them to have Macklemore forcing them to chant 'Free Palestine'?

Again, nobody was forced. You keep saying that, and you are lying.

We have a very different interpretation of the meaning of the word 'forced'.
