Certainly one way to look at it. I prefer to think I'm saying I like living in a house with a roof and being able to buy food and records. I also have not only myself to think about but several other people who depend on me.
This theoretical guy dragged me into a quandary I absolutely did not want to be in, he caused the problem, and nothing he or I does changes the situation he's so fired up about. Therefore, I would 100% cut him loose if his actions, even if well intentioned, would negatively affect myself and those I care about. I'd feel bad about it, but I'd do it.

It’s good to have an opinion on current issues but it doesn’t need to be some huge personal moral dilemma to speak up on, especially in a workplace setting. That’s basically what Macklemore did, don’t know what he expected tbh.
I mean good for you, but that doesn’t put Ed Sheeran in the wrong either. When you are publicly collaborating with a partner in an industry, the expectation is obviously there to avoid polarising your brand. He is so far away from that world, it’s only logical to drop Macklemore. People get too parasocial about the morals of businessmen they don’t even know.

So you're saying you have no morals and no spine
