Macklemore was booted off the tour after his two-minute speech on September 4 and 5 at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, which advocated for a “free Palestine,” “the occupied West Bank,” and criticism of the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
Wtf. Is this a typo? Or were they actually advocating for continuing the occupation??
I’ve been trying to figure out a way to say this all day. One of the reasons why I wanted to come on this tour was because I wanted to stand up here on stages and stadiums across America and say two words that are very near and dear to my heart: Free Palestine. I said, Free Palestine. I want those words to be loud and clear, so the people from Gaza, all the way to the occupied West Bank, know that we have not forgotten them… So I say Free Palestine, I say Free Lebanon, I say Free Cuba, I say Free Congo, Free Sudan, I say Free all people in America living in fear of this terrorist organisation, ICE. None of us will be free until we are all free.
He advocated for a free Palestine from Gaza to the occupied West Bank. Seems the author didn’t realize the occupied West Bank is part of occupied Palestine, but they’re not saying he advocated for continuing the occupation…

they can’t figure out what he is actually saying so they are just slapping it tougher. it’s called the enshitification of journalism.
