Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez told TMZ that the Ed Sheeran situation isn't an isolated incident but rather a warning sign for artists' freedom of speech. She points to Robert Kraft as the figure who mobilized stadium owners to censor specific speech, arguing this power dynamic goes far beyond one or two music artists. The core concern is how a small group of stadium owners and elites could prevent discussion of major issues like the genocide in Gaza. This censorship mechanism doesn't stop there; it could easily apply to topics such as AI. Ocasio-Cortez asserts that if these handful of stadium owners decide to act, they can jeopardize a person's career if they speak out on any issue. #AlexandriaOcasioCortez
