No, I've spent a brief amount of time over two days saying people should blame the billionaires doing this instead...

And that not blaming them, is letting them off the hook.

Why are you so motivated to make sure no one blames the people responsible?

Seriously, you keep focusing on the artist and not the billionaires, if you cany provide a plausible reason, people are left with assumptions.

Fun fact: you're not the one who brought up Kraft, you likely learned about him from other users who brought it up 😱

You can do both. You can call out Kraft as the billionaire Zionist who wants to control speech, and you can also call out the millionaire Sheeran that obeyed so he can keep getting paid.

That's not what you're doing. All you're doing is deflecting criticism from Sheeran, and if by some dumb luck your strategy worked and people started talking about Kraft only, you'd come in here and say "it's wild that people are so focused on what a sports guy is saying, when Trump is he real villain".
