Should have happened while he was lying about Ukraine and giving support to Russian imperialism and genocide back in 2022.
Thats quite an article about a man making comments not providing the comments made
Yeah, surprised to see the Guardian with this level of quality…
Why? It’s bang on brand for the Guardian.
Brilliant man, love his music.
He’s always been EXTREME anti-authoritarian, anti-war, anti-establishment. Consistent, at least, in his positions. I don’t always agree, but I respect.
And without full context or quotes, I will not rush to judgement — an extreme man who takes extreme positions, meant to challenge.
And no matter what they tell you, it’s possible to be against the actions of the Israeli state without being antisemitic.
This.
Waters is very political. Been to one of his shows (loved it), and he doesn’t hold back. I didn’t agree with everything he said, but he is who he is.
This article fails to mention any actual examples of Waters comments. This reads like an intern had to finish an article before the deadline and only had time to collect out-of-context anecdotes.
Very disappointing for The Guardian.
A teenage intern watched this and decided it was real
That says more about BMG than it does about Roger Waters.
Based upon this article, I don’t know anything other than the leading writing. What did he actually say, where, and would we disagree? A quick internet search finds mainly opinion.
Roger waters has been advocating for Palestinians for a very long time. Truly an OG.
He even plays songs for the Nakba Rally https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WKfroB3ls7E
Oh look, more censorship from zionists.
Hopefully he’s commenting on how Israel is commiting genocide on the people of Palestine.
Man, it’s so disappointing that the last couple of years really have made me outright hate him. Really love your music bro, but you’re a huge piece of shit.
Yeah a number of these old rocker dudes have really shown their ass. Waters, Clapton, Santana, etc
Wait what did Carlos Santana do?
In the middle of one of his concerts last summer he pulled out this gem:
“When God made you and me — before we came out of the womb, you know who you are and what you are. Later on, when you grow out of it, you see things, and you start believing that you could be something that sounds good, but you know it ain’t right. Because a woman is a woman and a man is a man. That’s it. Whatever you wanna do in the closet, that’s your business. I’m OK with that.”
The clip ends with Santana lining one hand behind the other, and adding that he was “Like this with my brother Dave Chappelle.”
Like, if you don’t like trans people I guess you do you, I doubt anybody’s gonna change your mind especially at his age. But, why exactly do you need to get on stage and disparage a group of people like that?
did an anti-trans rant at a concert
Don’t forget Morrissey
Yeah also Johnny Rotten has gone a similar direction.

What did Morrissey do? I would think he would be progressive as hell.
He’s turned very much into one of those “Britain for the British” types and has supported people like Nigel Farage and the Brexit movement.
Real shame, I love the Smiths’ music. Sucks Morrissey is such a douchebag.
To be fair, he’s always been a douchebag
Yeah can’t argue with that
Britain for the British I know, I know, it’s serious
I thought it was more, like racist shit
What do you suppose “Britain for the British” really means or what the major motivation behind Brexit was?
This article covers some of his mega iffy stuff over the years going back to at least the 80s

No, it sucks when anybody is a hateful conservative asshole.
Not as witty as you think you are, champ.
But King George killed his daddy. And it has made him very upset.
🗿
I have no idea what Easter Island head means.
That is an actual photo of Rog “the stone” Waters
Broken clocks. Dude is nuts and dogwhistles to conservatives constantly.
Can you post an example?
All in all, it’s just another prick falling, lol
Dark Side of the Nobody Gives A Fuck About You Anymore, Prick

Being an anti-Zionist is not the same as being anti-semitic
This asshole is definitely both.

You listen to gregorian chants?
I think they edited their comment without pointing out what was edited, so now your comment doesn’t make sense and people are downvoting you for it, lol
I figured it out though! I think, lol
Haha Yeah and sometimes I’m just going too far with my humor

I mean, it’s christian music…
