Musician Ed Sheeran’s tears for himself – and his naked self-pity at the supposed abandonment he claims he has suffered – have fallen apart like a cheap suit. And all it took was comparison with the real suffering of Palestinians facing the Israeli genocide Sheeran dismisses as “very complex”.
Sheeran claimed his friends and family have abandoned him, after his supporting acts and backing band said they could no longer tour with him after he caved to pressure from Zionist billionaires and dumped principled rapper Macklemore from his tour.
Real suffering – not Sheeran’s
‘LandPalestine’ mocked Sheeran’s declaration of victimhood:
Ed Sheeran sat on stage crying about how this has been the worst week of his life
Meanwhile children in Palestine have watched their loved ones starve to death, get blown apart, burned alive, and suffer in agony all while being villainized
But sure Ed Sheeran is the victim pic.twitter.com/9iLhspckkC

Czarina’s take on the same theme was brutally on point:
Last year I saw a video of a Palestinian father frantically carrying the dismembered remains of his child’s body in a plastic shopping bag, desperately trying to get them to a hospital https://t.co/7lmyKsPGcJ

Comedian Gianmarco Soresi told any Sheeran fans fooled by the display that there were other things they needed to become aware of:
If you’re moved by this guy crying boy oh boy are there some other images and videos you should check out https://t.co/5K6FbgLOAS

Jelina wanted to remind everyone that the apartheid colony whose feelings Sheeran prioritises continues to murder children every day during a supposed ceasefire:
Oh the victim, who’s crying for sympathy because he couldn’t afford to hire a band, so he’s all alone, the poor poor sod- who’s worth $400MIL – we need to give him all the sympathy in the world…
Nevermind the children in Gaza who are continually being bombed during a ceasefire… pic.twitter.com/DbeSvsqeg6

George added that children are being maimed and deprived of a future with every day of continued Israeli impunity that he tried to help prop up:

Commentator Marc Lamont Hill wanted to know exactly what he was crying about:
Marc Lamont Hill to Ed Sheeran: Are you crying for Palestinian babies?
I mean, what are you crying for? Are you crying for the people who are the victims of settler raids?
What are you crying for?
Are you crying for your ego? Because they’re dragging you through the mud and… pic.twitter.com/SE5994vWQr

Irish actor Liam Cunningham disowned him on behalf of the Irish people:

And user Marie found the tears act so distasteful that it didn’t even need comparison with the real suffering of Palestinians, saying “This crying act made me dislike Ed Sheeran more than I already did before and also annoy me and think of him as a slimy c*nt”.
Compared to the class of wronged artist Macklemore, who refused to make his sacking about him and pointed relentlessly to the real victims, Sheeran’s display was every bit as disgusting as Marie concluded.
Free Palestine. Fuck the genociders and all who kowtow to them.
