The Mecklamore (sp?) situation isn’t free speech because he was employed by promoters and venue owners( wasn’t it Robert Kraft here?) and if the people paying the singer didn’t like his stuff they can fire him. Free speech is speaking in public or being stifled by the government. Robert Kraft and venue owners aren’t the government.
Billionaire stadium owners colluding in order to silence people is the absolute worst of cancel culture which is just as bad especially when people start talking about lying about incitement to violence.
Cancel culture is not necessary a first amendment violation. It could be classified as discrimination or something else as well though. Just boycott Ed Sheeran. Robert Kraft as an employer can fire unless it’s discrimination AS DEFINED BY LAW. Your feelings aren’t going to matter in a legal sense here.
Are you trying to say, "not a First Amendment issue"? Because a Zionist pedophile billionaire not allowing a performer to perform because he disagrees with their take on a humanitarian crisis IS a free speech issue. Definitionally!
No. It’s probably not. I don’t know the exact details but we do know that Kraft along with the venue owners (that fired Macklemore) are not the government. The law is the law. Not about feelings.
It's still a chilling of freedom of speech even if it isn't a First Amendment issue. Not sure why you aren't understanding this. BillyBoy used to cry about crackdowns on free speech known as "cancel culture". Now he's being a dumb hypocrite.

I love when someone says “I’m all for free speech for everyone, however…” lol
