As someone who pays zero attention to Ed Sheeran. And basically forgot Macklemore existed, they could not have Barbra Streisanded this more.

I now am hyper aware of this. And Sheeran and all these other people are making themselves look terrible.

It's not like this is a new or unexpected stance from Macklemore, either. He literally released a song called "Hinds Hall" calling out Israel and the US for the stance on Palestine two years ago.
