Oh shit! Dude from Pink Floyd is a fuckin' Nazi!
See? Nazi-style uniform means he is a Nazi!
And inciting hatred? I thought those hippie motherfuckers were about peace and love and shit.
What kind of neo-nazi symbol is crossed hammers? I think I saw it in a movie once, one about the rise of fascism and the dangers of populism.
I think there were jews in that movie and people being shipped in trains and evil teachers indoctrinating children. I think the kids just wanted the teachers to leave them alone.
And i think there were weird animations of judges and torture. Maybe?
Oh yeah, that's right, it was The Wall. The only movie i loved when i was younger (i watched it over and over) but can not bear to watch as an adult.

He's the same prick that said Ukraine provoked Russia.

Listen, Roger Waters has turned into a big piece of shit in his old age (maybe he always was?). But if he was performing The Wall then the character literally turns into a fascist neo-nazi. It would be wrong to arrest him for that. (If thats thr situation).

Seems a little like anti-Israel and anti-fascist messaging that's being misrepresented as anti-semitism to me, but I wasn't there

Okay, the album The Wall is suppose to be about fascism

Just researched the Wall, seemed pro Nazi to me.

It chronicles the rise of an entertainer to a fascist leader. Social commentary on the rise of hitler. The Resistable Rise of Arturo Uri is another great story about the same.

the critique of fascism falls flat when he's simultaneously brownnosing Putin

I didn't know about that. Still, he's been doing this show for about 30 years. My aunt has seen pink floyd several times, and they have put on this same act during at least 2 of their tours in the 90s. It is very ironic that he doesn't see the connection between the wall and what putin is doing. Shame.
