    @PhilipTheBucket To be honest, I don’t like her either, and I tend to avoid her vids/interviews. However, I was curious as to what Waters had to say, so I basically tuned her out.

    I also wasn’t all that interested in random celebs. I don’t buy modern music so it has no effect on my spending or support for any of them.

    But overall, yes, I agree with you.

      Yeah. Like imagine if someone had made this exact same video about Roger Waters, picking out his weird public statements about Ukraine and then lumping him in with a bunch of people who said things that were much worse, saying he’s a POS, brainwashed, and fuck him, and putting him on their enemies list as a result. It’s just weird. People can say what they want to say.

      I mean I generally liked Nick Cave’s music quite a lot, so finding out he is a POS in at least this one respect was definitely relevant I guess. I agree with you, I didn’t have much issue with anything Roger himself had to say. But the host is the literal personification of the right-wing “cancel culture” caricature.
