Maybe we shouldn't give attention or awards to genocidal fucks actively engaged in genocide and should disrupt their attempts to garner positive attention.

You know, using the exact same justification you used to not give attention to someone disrupting a sports game, a much less important thing then FUCKING GENOCIDE.

Excessive? It's an entertainment show. Just like they tilt the camera to the sky and mute the audio when a runner gets onto a sports pitch during a live broadcast to not give them an audience, muting calls from the audience during a concert is just about the same. You might agree with the message, but that doesn't mean it's justified.
