Macklemore: "I didn't need 10 shows from Ed. I needed 2. Two chances to stand in front of 90,000 people and say the words that somehow became too dangerous to say. Free Palestine." Bless you Macklemore for being on the right side of history.

In 2014 Macklemore posed in a costume that looked like a caricature of a jew in the Nazi paper "Der Stürmer" and he never gave a proper explanation or apology. The words "free palestine" are perfectly OK, spoken by someone, who is an antisemite: its different.

Are you ok with the fact that he was never punished for that but he is being punished for saying “free Palestine”? Are you ok with Kanye west and his Heil Hitler song and antisemitic speeches? He played krafts stadium. The tikitorch mob in Charlottesville chanting “Jews will not replace us “?

All killing is wrong! FFS ... I'm an hold out from the peace love dove generation. You know "Make love NOT war". And with every fiber of my being I still believe it. Did I mention I'm a vegetarian too? Yeah...grew up with the murders of JFK, MLK and Bobby. Oh and let's not forget the Vietnam war.

Free Palestine has become weaponized language. It's the last thing Jews heard before the pogroms at Bondi Beach, in Boulder, at Etz Chaim in Pittburgh, in DC and plenty of other massacres. If your goal not antisemitism why do you keep killing Jews? #macklebore #jerkoffmore #macklewhore

You naively SUPPORT the most aggressively violent faction of MALE perpetrators. The kind of male savage behavior YOU VOCALLY SAY YOU HATE because you care more about sounding right rather than actually BEING RIGHT. THIS PATHETIC PATH PUTS VANCE IN THE WHITE HOUSE!!!

1. I disagree with the words "Free Palestine" but I agree with Macklemore's right to say those words, and I also don't think they should be considered anti-Semitic or "offensive to Jews". But, that means I also have freedom of speech that I get to use. I fear a Palestinian state far more than I

2. fear the existing Israeli one. It isn't that I think Israel is great - I loathe it. It has become similar to its enemies. Just so, I fully believe a Palestinian state would be more so. I get to say this without being accused of racism or genocide or offensiveness. We disagree. Respectfully.

"Free Palestine" can mean multiple things. The slogan is not a benign expression of solidarity with Palestinian rights. He used loaded terminology which could be easily misinterpreted. They won't remember the support he has for all people, only the words "free Palestine".

Free Palestine can be taken as it it states. Free Palestine. Your comment was about Macklemore saying free Palestine as if he was saying “kill Jewish people” and his comment was taken out of context with what he actually said about Jewish people and Palestine, and the Sudan, and Congo.
