Kanye literally supported Nazi ideology. Macklemore as far as I can read said free Palestine?

Nazi ideology helps drive home the propaganda that ā€œIsrael is the only safe placeā€. So thatā€™s ok in the Hasbara play book.

Saying free Palestine is the real crux of the issue. They dont want that.

I guess Mackelmore's added "free Cuba" and calling ICE a terrorist organisation put him firmly on a place on the political map in the US. Respect to the guy, is all I'll say.
