Even a stopped clock is right 2X a day. But it’s still a stopped clock.

When you find agreement with a nutjob like Waters it’s probably time to reassess.

I'm reminded of something John Lennon once said when asked a political question. "Why would anyone care what a celebrity thinks about anything?"

I agree with that. All musicians and actors and actresses are good for is to entertain me. They're only as good as their song or movie. Other than that, they're worthless.

I managed to get through five minutes despite the fact that Waters very first point was totally incorrect. Waters diatribe is, unsurprisingly, nothing more than a shallow regurgitation of Moscow Kremlin talking points and gaslighting. Ultimiately, the Kremlin and its useful fools like Waters seek to disenfranchise those who oppose Russian revanchism. That “Palestian” flag he is wearing should be a big clue, FRiend.

Africa News Network has been associated with the corrupt Gupta family of India (and South Africa and Texas) which has ties with the terroristic and communist ANC.

“Sorry, pal. I’m done with this a**hole.”

Dittos. Even if he came out and declared — “you know what — I was wrong about a lot of things and have been warming up to Trump lately” — I still wouldn’t care.

I first saw him in 1970 when PF was an obscure underground band. Have followed PF ever since and have enjoyed his compositions. Hey Roger — “shut up ‘n play yer guitar”.

Which must mean Waters was correct from a logical, conservative position.

ARE YOU SERIOUS????

He links the successful (no war) conclusion of the Cuban Missile Crisis to “speaking to one another on the telephone like civilized human beings” after ripping “oligarchs” for profiting off of war.

He’s a buffoon, as is anyone else failing to recognize that the CMC was both begun and ended with Jupiter missiles moved by the US (the latter the decades old secret negotiated end of the CMC).

Additionally, he both wears a palestinian flag and is outspoken about his position, totally glossing over what caused the urkrainian problem to begin with (and fanned the flames of war):

zelensky, who admitted that he lied on Minsk II and - ironically, given comments by ‘just a musician’ - disengaged from ‘common sense’ and dialogue, forging an assured path to war...

...all with tacit support of those who continue to promote it and criticize zelensky having been omitted from the dialogue he himself never wanted.

pshaw/spit
