Roger Waters is a weapons grade jerk and hypocrite. He likes to lecture the world on morality but comes up short.He made scores of money making music about his friends descent into madness. There is no evidence Waters or anyone else ever reached out to help Syd Barrett or his family. Waters and the rest of Pink Floyd made no efforts to help his family or paid a hospital visit to a peer.
There is no evidence Waters or any person connected to Pink Floyd ever reached out to the Barrett family. Waters wants to lecture the world about the evils of Trump and Israel. It is an established fact, Israel does provide medical care even to the family of Hammas bigwigs. Anyone familiar with Trump can tell you of his generous nature with long term employees.
Waters is a vain self righteous imbecile who latched on to more talented people Barrett and then Gilmour. He ditched
Barrett, because he grew increasingly unstable. Before arm chair psychologists go too far Barrett was never formally
Diagnosed with schizophrenia by professionals well acquainted with the malady. One can also speculate about massive abuse of LSD.
Essentially Waters attempted to fulfill the artistic vision of Barrett on Dark Side of the Moon. Wish you were Here contains tributes to Barrett. The truth was the real Barrett had shown up and was unrecognizable and talking gibberish. Waters was so concerned about Barrett that he never visited or reached out to the Barrett family. He then went on to the baloney that the Wall was about Barrett. It is a self serving myth from an amoral blow hard. He is so consumed with Barrett that he never visited, didn't recognize the man and did not lift a finger to assist his family.
Now after making a career out of exploiting a man he was briefly acquainted with, Waters thinks he is some sort of moral guardian of the universe. His cartoon obsessions are likely more apt to be a sign of mental illness than anything experienced by Barrett. If you cross a KKK idiot with a labotmized social science phd candidate you get Waters. Make no mistake comparing the Holocaust to the ever growing numbers of Palestinians is just idiocy.
His arrogance and his abusive behavior towards the rest of the band are well known. Waters gives spoiled self centered celebrities a bad name. Okay we can write books about celebrities who mistreated their peers and staff. One would have to go far and wide to find a lower human being than Waters.
Now some of you point out I have enjoyed the work of Pink Floyd. This is quite true but it takes a different meaning
after reading about Syd Barrett and the decades of obnoxious self serving bs of Waters. Realistically, Barrett could no longer function. I don't begrudge a song or two. The other Beatles paid tribute to John Lennon. They did not make a career out of trying to rip his style off. There is no comparison of classy persons like George and Paul with Waters.
Don't hold your breath for entertainment reporters to grill Waters about exploitation of Barrett s man he barely knew
And ignored in real life.
