Практика Shadowing: ED SHEERAN DONATES $2 MILLION - Изучайте разговорный английский по видео

When you lost Jesse Waters on the free Palestine front, it's over.

You know what I mean?

Speaking of Macklemore, there's a new Macklemore post.

He said, with everything that has happened over the last 48 hours, I want to bring the conversation back to where it belongs to the Palestinian people who are still being killed, still living under military occupation, and still fighting for their freedom.

I'll be donating the entire $1 million of my net earnings from

the Ed Sheeran Loop Tour to six organizations working directly to support the Palestinian people, and I invite Robert Kraft to match my donation.

Whatever we disagree about, perhaps we can agree on this.

Palestinian lives are worth protecting.

A Palestinian life is no less valuable than any other life on this earth.

That is what this has always been about.

Not me, not a tour, not the headlines or the controversy.

It's about Palestinians' right to freedom, dignity, and safety on their own homeland.

Uh-oh.

That's the MKUltra activation code, though.

You said Palestinians have a homeland.

Robert Kraft is not going to like that.

I want to center the parents carrying their children into hospitals without basic resources to treat them and the physicians, paramedics, journalists, and aid workers who keep going back in.

I want to center the organizers and activists who have paid real costs for standing with Palestine.

The risk is of a far different order than mine.

Just yesterday, 15-year-old Mohammed al-Zinadi was killed in an Israeli strike while rushing to help aid worker Sharif Lubad, who had already been injured.

He was a child.

Both were murdered.

Both should be alive.

And the ones still under the rubble, whose names exist only in the memories of people who may not have survived to speak them.

Writing a check is one of the least costly forms of solidarity available to me.

I am doing it because I can and because these organizations are doing the work while much of the world debates it.

But aid alone cannot address the conditions that make it necessary.

This is a man-made injustice and I believe it requires immediate political change.

Palestinians have lived for decades without basic rights and should not have to wait another day to be free.

That is where my focus will remain.

I will continue to stand with the Palestinian people and their fight for liberation.

When the new cycle moves on, which it will, don't move with it.

Free Palestine.

Now what's interesting is Robert Kraft has now responded from Gillette Stadium.

Let's read what he said.

I've dedicated much of my life to building bridges between all people, including Jeffrey Epstein, Benjamin Netanyahu, and Donald Trump.

I added that part myself.

I believe deeply that all lives are worth protecting, including Benjamin Netanyahu's and Jeffrey Epstein's and Donald Trump's.

Earlier today, before McLemore challenged me to match his donation, Ed called me

and asked me to commit $2 million to match his donation to aid in the region to fight this humanitarian crisis.

Donate in the region?

The humanitarian crisis?

Who is responsible for it?

What are the charities you're donating to?

He's like, that's why I'm giving $2 million.

By the way, he won't even hand it to McLemore.

He's like, yeah, Ed asked me, actually.

That's why I'm doing it.

I'm doubling and I'm giving it to the IDF.

Ed now plans to reach out to other venue owners and our goal is to continue to work together to build bridges.

In addition, I'd like the people who are speaking in support of the Palestinian people to know

that for decades I have supported efforts to create opportunity for Palestinians and brought young Palestinians and Israelis together to build businesses, create jobs and forge relationships.

Yeah.

Building bridges so that we can, you know, send bombs over there to blow them up.

To add on to this, even Fox News, even Fox News, even Jesse Waters had to say something along the lines of like,

what, he just said free Palestine and that's why we're canceling him?

This doesn't make any sense.

Even Fox News is recognizing that this level of silencing,

this level of control over discourse in the United States of America at the behest of a foreign nation is ridiculous.

Flues.

Jesse.

So what did he say?

It was bad.

He said, free Palestine. Is that all?

He went on.

No, there was genocide.

Okay.

Well, all I heard was free Palestine.

I don't think that's hate speech.

But, you know, if Rob Kraft doesn't want you there, he owns the venue.

You're gone.

I mean, that's ridiculous.

Like, he still has to turn around and make it seem like this is reasonable.

But even when you lost Jesse Waters on the free Palestine front, it's over you know what i mean

because like look this guy is the the maximum bootlicker

and he very quickly reveals that he is the maximum bootlicker

but even a guy like jesse waters has to at least come across as somewhat reasonable

so that the propaganda

that he does otherwise is more powerful this is the dynamic

demonstrated by mainstream outlets as well sometimes like new york times

will do a report that's scathing on like israel's violence israel's genocide and you're like what what the New York Times, like New York war crimes did this.

And it's like, yeah, they have to do this.

The reason why they have to do this is because if they don't, if there is something that is so glaringly,

obviously an inconsistent instance of hypocrisy, and you have to present yourself as like a reasonable person, if you don't do it in a moment like this,

then next time when you pull up to propagandize, they are going to remind you that you were inconsistent.

You were hypocritical.

You were silly.

This is a moment where even Fox News has to entertain the silliness. Who cares? Who cares?

If Greg's on my tour and he starts spouting off and annoying me, I'm giving him the boot.

I don't even care if it's political.

If he even looks at me the wrong way when I take him on tour.

He is gone.

You know why he won't?

Because he won't go on tour with me.

The fact that they are trying to justify this is so, so deeply insincere, and it will only reduce their credibility even with their own base.

Because I'm certain that there's still plenty of Republicans that watch Fox News, who get entertained by Fox News, who believe in Fox News,

who feel like this is a bridge too far.

Nobody likes a rich asshole controlling what you can and can't say.

100

They live with that reality every day at their workplaces.

101

So this is just a reminder of the thing you hate, of super powerful, rich asshole, comes in and says, no,

102

you can't say this thing that everyone also agrees with.

103

Simply put, that's completely unacceptable.

104

The zero tolerance policy that the Israel lobby

105

and its domestic loyalists enforced the silenced criticism of that foreign country used to be done without anyone noticing, so it was effective.

106

The problem is they're running a playbook from 2001 in 2026 and everyone can see it now.

107

Absolutely.

108

We exist in a very different media environment.

109

We exist in a very different social environment.

110

We exist in a very different political environment.

111

What used to work in the buildup in the last 80 years, when the media was far more consolidated,

112

far more organized, when people could only get their information from mainstream outlets, from six different TV channels, or maybe a hundred different TV channels, but still TV channels nonetheless,

113

information was easier to control.

114

So when this kind of incident took place, everyone in corporate media would immediately cover it as, here is a vicious anti-Semite that's getting punished.

115

And we'd move on.

116

We would just assume that Macklemore is a rabid anti-Semite, and thank God he's no longer getting a massive platform.

117

But in 2026, people understand what Israel has done.

118

In 2026, people despise what Israel has done.

119

And in 2026, people have an opportunity to learn about things that are happening from independent outlets.

120

There is a far greater, far more diverse force of information in this landscape.

121

So when people attack Macklemore or attack anyone else, even myself included, with the same barrage of disinformation,

122

misinformation, claims of anti-Semitism, people know that that's simply untrue.

123

This is the real issue.

124

This is the real problem.

125

And the more these forces, the Israel lobby, its vociferous defenders, use this same technique, calling someone an anti-Semite,

126

demanding their deplatforming, getting their wishes of deplatforming, cancellation, real cancel culture, the more that that happens, the more people despise Israel,

127

this foreign country, this foreign country and its envoys that are unbelievably entitled.

128

Ironically enough, a big part of the reason why Americans despise Israel is not only

129

because of the violence that Israel has contributed to, the belligerence of the greater Israeli project,

130

the tax dollars that are going there to contribute to these atrocities, our moral culpability.

131

These are all reasons why many people oppose Israel.

132

But that's not the main reason why there is majority support for Palestinians now.

133

Americans have been trained to collateralize brown lives.

134

They've seen it over and over again in Iraq and Afghanistan, everywhere around the world.

135

Brown bodies are seen on television as collateral damage.

136

So they're used to seeing that kind of death and destruction, even though Israel has kicked up the magnitude.

137

It's a genocide.

138

It's different than just a war.

139

It's different than an illegal occupation.

140

But Americans are used to seeing Muslims die on television and justify it.

141

But the major difference is that Israel will then turn around and demand your cancellation if you call it out.

142

That's a big problem because Americans hate cancel culture.

143

They love free speech and they do not like when a foreign country and its envoys are demonstrating this level of hubris,

144

this level of arrogance and demonstrating this level of power on American soil.

145

Every single American, when they find out that AIPAC has been able to successfully push for anti-BDS legislation in 38 states,

146

loses their minds, they go, oh, that's unacceptable.

147

In 38 states in the United States of America, you have to sign a loyalty pledge to the state of Israel that you will never boycott Israel.

148

You will never demand sanctions on the Israeli nation state.

149

You will never demand divestment from Israeli companies.

150

And you have to sign these laws to get a job in the state of Texas.

151

You have to sign this loyalty place in the state of Israel to become a public school teacher.

152

Do you understand how insane that is?

153

First of all, it is a direct violation of the First Amendment.

154

It's a direct violation of the First Amendment.

155

Numerous states have different versions of this law.

156

I have yet to meet a person that has told me that this law is good.

157

I've only met people that didn't know it existed.

158

And when they find out that it exists, they lose their minds.

159

They get very mad.

160

This is unbelievable arrogance.

161

You understand?

162

Unbelievable entitlement.

163

And perhaps that's precisely the reason why so many defenders of Israel, so many envoys of the Israeli state repeat this sense of entitlement,

164

this sense of arrogance, this hubris over and over again, because they're used to it for the past 80 years.

165

It has been unconditional loyalty and support.

166

What's up, YouTube?

167

If you like that video, please like, subscribe and turn on the notifications.

168

Also, tune into my stream.

169

I'm probably live right now at twitch.tv slash Hassanabi and support independent media like the Piker Broadcasting Service, the People's Broadcasting Service.

170

Thank you.

171

A lot of this, Branko says, is the Israel first crowd's own doing for insisting on trying to make Free Palestine somehow hate speech or offensive, which most people see as absurd and cynical.

172

Everything that's followed will embolden other artists to speak out and weaken this canceled campaign.

173

Thousands of Ed Sheeran tickets remain on Seoul for Singers Tour with prices down to $65 online.

174

What is this?

175

Sharon got a replacement.

176

Haters will say AI.

177

No, I think, I think McLemore has actually announced that, um, who's that lady who did Eurovision for Israel?

178

Yeah.

179

Yes.

180

put the ai slap back on i'm from tel aviv

181

and this is my art and she has new opener since everyone is dropping out of his tour

182

As Sheeran announces new backing band.

183

That is, that's somewhat of a deep cut.

184

1-877 cars for kids.

185

Yeah.

186

and our boy five ish is in the building as well

187

if your fame is in a line with israel you immediately

188

get mean being publicly pro israel literally social suicide is fascinating yeah

189

but here's the thing for the elites in society they are

190

completely sheltered from this stuff at most it makes them feel bad for a brief moment

191

if they see it at all our voices do not reach them

192

and i need you to understand this so that's why it's significant when people in your social status

193

are actually complaining about this and showing solidarity.

194

Because you think Ed Sheeran is around regular people?

195

You think Ed Sheeran is ever yelled at?

196

He doesn't go out in public.

197

He's Ed Sheeran.

198

He's worth $400 million.

199

The only other people

200

that he's ever around in social functions are people who also have the exact same opinion as he does.

201

here's mark lamont hill explaining uh on the joe button podcast

202

uh the the controversy in the drama let's take a look nothing

203

that macklemore did in these recent stage shows was hate speech right

204

and the idea of saying or reinforcing the idea

205

that free palestine is hate speech it's just like in the united states

206

when people used to hear black lives matter when it first came out

207

and people would act like black lives matter was anti-white yeah just

208

because that makes you uncomfortable doesn't mean that it's

209

that it's wrong just a reminder mark lamont hill literally was

210

fired for saying from the river to the sea palestine will

211

be free he's been a long-standing advocate for palestinian emancipation he he has a close

212

and personal relationship with the censorious regime uh brought about by the zionist lobby

213

so he knows he's experienced it he's lived it.

214

And here's the reality.

215

I have as well, and maybe even some of you have experienced a fraction of this, or maybe the full brunt of the Zionist lobby.

216

When you went out and you protested on college campuses, you might have been called up by HR for things that you've tweeted,

217

things that you've said on social media.

218

Israel has universalized this experience.

219

The lobby has universalized this experience.

220

And therefore, these cries of anti-Semitism fall on deaf ears

221

because everyone knows someone at this point that has gone out and protested, that has gone out and said, this is unacceptable.

222

Why are we still giving money to Israel and have been yelled at?

223

And they are reminded of that experience.

224

They've been yelled at and called an anti-Semite when they weren't being anti-Semitic.

225

And that is precisely the reason why these media campaigns, the smear campaigns coordinated by mainstream outlets, coordinated by very powerful entities in this country,

226

very powerful people in this country that have amassed insane levels of wealth consolidated in the hands of just a tiny, tiny number of people.

227

When they see someone like McLemore getting yelled at, or even someone like myself getting yelled at, they are reminded of their own personal experience and they don't like it.

228

That's why it doesn't work.

229

And he said this stuff, this decision that you just said is not about diminishing the suffering of innocent Palestinians.

230

It is.

231

He always, but he always has these comments like innocent Palestinians.

232

I'm not mad to innocent Palestinians, but any Palestinian that resists, any Palestinian that fights in a way that they don't think is appropriate is no longer an innocent Palestinian.

233

Like how you get to protest your own occupation is not left to the occupier.

234

They don't get to set the standard.

235

That's why I despise when people say, oh, well, you know, I don't mind criticisms of Israel.

236

No, you don't.

237

You do mind it.

238

What do you mean you don't mind criticism of Israel?

239

I've never met a type of criticism of Israel that you've, you know, been on board with.

240

You don't like when Miss Rachel says children shouldn't be slaughtered.

241

You call her a vicious anti-Semite,

242

which ironically enough is far more anti-Semitic than anything anyone else is being accused of to tie Judaism to murdering children.

243

what a disgusting thing to do because the hidden premise there is

244

that no you know israel is going to murder children there's nothing you could do about it

245

because israel is the jewish state that's that's messed up that's anti-semitic

246

and that's what this statement does but he crap he puts all this warm

247

and fuzzy language in it so it sounds like he's being reasonable

248

and that's what they do the oppressor acts reasonable by saying let's split the pie

249

but it's not your pie yes god i love Mark Lamont Hill so much.

250

He's so amazing.

251

What a brilliant voice, dude.

252

What a brilliant advocate.

253

And that's what Palestine is all about, is splitting the pie.

254

And every time I say, how are we going to split the pie?

255

I take another slice.

256

I take another slice.

257

There's nothing left.

258

And then if I fight back and take my slice back, they say, well, you were being unreasonable.

259

And that's the problem with Robert Kraft.

260

And that's the problem with all of this.

261

And that's why I resent what Ed Sheeran did, because he knows enough to know that.

262

You can't punish a group of people for the actions of a smaller group of people.

263

Right, you can't do that.

264

And even the Hamas conversation frames, I know we gotta tie this up, but it frames everything that's happening as starting on October 7th.

265

Palestine was under occupation on October 6th.

266

Gaza was under siege on October 6th.

267

The occupation of Palestine begins in 1967.

268

It's the longest military occupation in modern history.

269

The theft of Palestinian land, and the plunder of Palestinian land, which begins at the end of the 19th century, but in terms of the formation of Israel, starts in 1948.

270

40 something.

271

Yeah, 1948 beast mode bars as always i mean he's brilliant margola my hill is brilliant

272

yeah october 7 happened because of october 6 oh aoc had a take on this as well

273

hey if ed sheeran comes on the radio while you're driving along are you changing the channels i am You are?

274

Why is that?

275

I think that what we've seen,

276

especially, it's not just what has happened with the act and not just in removing Macklemore from the lineup,

277

but when you see what Robert Kraft did to line up all of the stadiums to censor speech in

278

that one specific way, It's become clear that this is not just about one music artist or two music artists,

279

but this is about how just a handful of stadium owners and the elite can prevent an entire massive issue,

280

in this case the genocide in Gaza.

281

But it doesn't stop there.

282

It could be speaking out about AI could be speaking out about any issue

283

that you can now just get a handful of stadium owners to ensure

284

that an entire person's career can be jeopardized

285

if they speak out about any issue the supporting acts have dropped out

286

but Ed Sheeran I think will still continue with the tour

287

um do you what do you think his responsibility is in

288

all of this um you know I I don't know

289

but you know I think that because you never see these contracts

290

and some I have no idea what the financial entanglements of

291

that of all that is but I do think

292

that um you know I think

293

that the right thing to do is to speak out about it

294

and I think the right thing to do is at the

295

very least to speak out about this abuse of power because

296

if they're saying that to him right then they can say it to anybody

297

and at what point does it stop i have it's just crazy so many cancel culture warriors made a

298

ton of money made absolute killing railing against like college campus

299

protesters blue-haired sjw's yelling at them right they didn't actually like

300

lose anything significant in the process they just got yelled at it was annoying

301

and now that there is actual de-platforming taking place not a single one of them give a shit.

302

They don't talk about it at all.

303

They welcome it.

304

Many of them welcome it.

Что такое техника Shadowing?

Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
