"It's OK if you do it for money"
No...
It's just acting like he has any control just shows that you don't understand it.
If you think he can just say "Macklemore stays" and that's it, Ed looks like a huge dick.
Which is why it's worth clarifying he his only other option is to throw his own career away after almost certainly being the ones who got Macklemore on stage and able to say it in front of a huge crowd in the first place.
If everyone who supported Palestine quit their jobs in the entertainment industry in protest, it would just be handing away their microphones, figuratively and literally.
What's so hard about understanding this?
