What's the logic behind persecuting Sheeran for this? Palestine yes, but this just seems dumb.

    Ed Sheeran is incidental at this point. The boycott is the equivalent of breaking equipment at a factory. He is a profit engine for his agency, and if people don't go to his concert, his agency and the venues lose money. Sucks for him, but nobody held a gun to his head and forced him to hitch his wagon to this train.

    Then why not name all artists the agency is handling? This seems like it's going to hurt nobody but Sheeran.

    Because he made himself a target and life is not fair.
