A commenter notes that before the controversy, Sheeran had pledged $2 million to humanitarian aid in Palestine and sought a matching donation from Robert Kraft, complicating the 'silent and complicit' framing.
“Nobody is talking about the $2 million Sheeran pledged to humanitarian aid in Palestine and the match he requested from Kraft...BEFORE all this went down.”

See something, say something. This excuse is horse shit. Silence is complicity.

I have a cousin, who never misses an opportunity to tell everyone here political views. Funerals,weddings, the 4th of July, you name it, she's always on her soap box about this cause, that cause,you name it. I wish she would shut tf up. Not every occasion is appropriate to discuss world affairs.
