The Ed “Zio Ginger” Sheeran Damage Control Situation

Cuts ticket prices 50% but managed to do a solo concert without his band.

SNL on the scene. Ed Sheeran, a passionate advocate of causes that are allowed.

The critics:

Israeli deaths caused from their own Hannibal Directive truly is horrific.

• reads from teleprompter

• immediately starts with October 7th

• still won’t call it a genocide – says he doesn’t know enough about what’s happening

• makes no apology to Macklemore or addresses dropping him from the tour

• doesn’t mention where his donation will be going to

• doesn’t encourage anyone to donate

• won’t say Israel is the reason Gaza is suffering

• won’t say free Palestine

• only cries when he sees people showed up to the concert because that’s what he cares more about.

Ed Sheeran calls for “UNITY”.
No shit.

FYI: According to Sheeran, Unity Means ignoring a Genocide & a foreign government controlling the government of the U.S.
