The trailer is a bit long and unfocused. Noted anti-semite Roger Waters (of Pink Floyd fame) has a lot of people lining up against him. Alan Dershowitz and Howard Stern may be the best known of them (see trailer). I have a Google alert set to Waters and will keep Lem informed.
Former Pink Floyd bass player Roger Waters compared Trump to Hitler today in a stunning news break reported by Rolling Stone. The noted anti-Semite credits a teenaged-trip to Beirut for making him aware of injustice and inequality.
Waters was born in 1943 and was a teen between the years of 1956 to 1963.
Did anything significant happen in the Middle East between 1956 and 1963?
This post is a continuation-in-part from here and here.
Roger Waters closed out a huge nostalgic boomer fest in Indio, California last weekend. His newest contribution to entertainment was an out-sized inflatable pig festooned with Trump insignia. The noted anti-Semite also took time to excoriate Israel and to heap praise on Palestine, which apparently caused some backlash in the audience:
While Waters's anti-Trump stance elicited cheers, albeit not universally, his statement on Israel drew a more muted response with some fans clapping but others booing and at least one proudly waving an Israeli flag as a counter-protest.
Waters is well-known for his criticism of Israeli policy and in 2013 came under fire from Israel supporters for putting a Star of David on the inflatable pig. link
Waters' former bandmates were right about Roger being an OCD freak.
A noted anti-Semite, Roger Waters of Pink Floyd fame, is fanning the flames of trumped-up hatred. Playing sold out shows in Mexico City, Waters juxtaposed several images of Trump = Hitler and Trump = KKK: link
The noted opponent of Brexit just can't stay out of American politics. Waters also screen-projected a phrase which has gone viral across Mexico: Trump Eres Un Pendejo (Trump, you're an asshole).
Waters will be playing a huge concert in Indio, California next weekend. I plan to go camping down that way. I hope I run into the little British twit.
Something I learned today about this Pink Floyd song, "Pigs (Three Different Ones)"...
...and its lyrical reference:
Bus stop rat bag, ha ha, charade you are
You fucked up old hag, ha ha, charade you are
You radiate cold shafts of broken glass
You're nearly a good laugh
Almost worth a quick grin
You like the feel of steel
You're hot stuff with a hat pin
And good fun with a hand gun
You're nearly a laugh
You're nearly a laugh
But you're really a cry.
Hey you Whitehouse, ha ha, charade you are
You house proud town mouse, ha ha, charade you are
You're trying to keep our feelings off the street
You're nearly a real treat
All tight lips and cold feet
And do you feel abused?
You gotta stem the evil tide
And keep it all on the inside Mary you're nearly a treat Mary you're nearly a treat
But you're really a cry.
_______________________________ Mary Whitehouse was a conservative British social activist (see link). Roger Waters probably considered her the equivalent of Anita Bryant.
Speaking of Roger Waters, didn't he recently catch some flak for flying a giant inflatable pig with a Star of David?
