I was fucking shocked tbh. I said before this happened that nobody would be stupid enough to do it but apparently he really is just that stupid. The amount of backlash it would provoke was obvious, not just from audiences but from other musicians too.

This completely changes everything he does from now on. Every conversation about Sheeran will involve someone mentioning Israel. All other artists will evaluate whether they want to be associated with that or not when considering work. It's never going away.

Unbelievably stupid mistake.
