Pink Floyd’s Roger Waters has dubbed Ed Sheeran a “p****” who has “done the wrong thing” amid the ongoing controversy over Macklemore being pulled as a support act from Sheeran’s tour after expressing solidarity with Palestinians on stage.
For anyone who doesn’t want to watch the included video: p**** = prick
Edit for formatting
2nd Edit: I have just learned that Waters has very publicly supported Putin in the war on Ukraine saying, that Putin governs carefully and makes decisions based on consensus? So it’s pricks all around in this story.
Knowing Waters, he likely said it because Ed organized the thing and brought attention to Palestine and never said anything bad to Macklemore or others.
even a broken clock is right twice each day…
Your underlying point is correct and I agree
But the pedant in me hates this saying. It’s almost never true. A clock broken in a very specific way is right twice a day, but how many clocks get broken like that? If they get smashed, and hands fall off, they can’t even show a valid time. Even then, they’re more likely to just run at the wrong speed, which makes it VERY unlikely they’ll show the correct time even once a day. Also most clocks are digital now! If those break, they show nothing!
Thank you for coming to my Tod Talk
It’s because the correct saying is “a stopped clock is right twice a day”.

“Hit 'em with a chair! Flying elbow! HE’S GETTING THE LADDER, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN.”
A complete POS called Sheeran a name and is right. You are really at low point when that asshole Waters calls you out and is right.
Waters is a prick, fuck that guy.
literally “the worst person you know makes a fair point”
We have a Roger Waters style far-right politician in Romania. Her name is Diana Sosoaca. She’s pro-palestine and a close friend to Russia. Appears on Russian TV regularly. She’s terrible and a true anti-semite. She is pro-palestine literally because she is anti-semitic. She’s also in legal trouble for promoting fascism.
Ah, that’s more Tucker like
Don’t tell her most Palestinians are Semitic too.
Oh, I remember this weirdo. Behaves like someone who’s desperate for attention and drama, no matter the cost.
You’re not pro-Palestine if you’re antisemitic. Palestine has always been multiethnic and multicultural until Zionists started enacting their plans of ethnic cleansing.
Apparently the shape of things is vaginal
He’s a Putinist and an anti-vaxer.
has been a staunch Palestinian supporter. can’t win them all.
Love his music.
Fuck Putin. Free Palestine.
*Insert confused Jackie Chan face
Waters thinks all war, and imperialism, is bad.
Waters thinks that when the war started in Ukraine, Biden should’ve called Putin and told him to cut it out, because the US is a major world power. Waters thinks (or at least claimed at a concert) that Zelensky should be sitting down and making a deal with Putin for peace, because war is bad so ending it should always be the goal regardless of what you lose or give up… He didn’t say that last part, that’s me being uncharitable.
I mean, just listen to The Wall and realize he’s had almost 50 years to calcify on “War is Bad.”
Though, he does correctly point out that every modern US president is a war criminal.
Jackie Chan is another piece of shit, the CCP gave him a theatre chain to operate in China and now he works for them, he also opposes democracy in Hong Kong where he was born.
Thanks. I edited in the Putin information when I learned of it about an hour ago. Might not have propagated to your instance yet though.
Roger Waters is a bloody genius!
(/s)
“Waters SLAMMING Sheeran” is some right wing hate watch porn
Also: Waters supports Russia, so they’re both *****
I knew it was over for Sheeran when I read his excuses post on social media and he included a paragraph that started with “I am not complicit.”
If you have to come out publicly to argue you’re not complicit you’re probably complicit.
He is, too, he really both-sides’ed the whole situation and went on to do the tour even after every other act pulled out.
IDK what sort of cancellation fee they’re threatening him with but I think he had a great excuse for the courts when the producers and venues sabotaged his tour.
Waters is a fucking prick for siding with Russia over their genocide of Ukraine.
He might be a prick for a whole lot of reasons, but he’s right about Palestine.
I hadn’t hear this so I looked it up. You aren’t kidding.
The veteran Pink Floyd rocker, Roger Waters, has addressed the UN security council at Russia’s invitation, and called for an immediate ceasefire in Ukraine. But he was denounced by the Ukrainian ambassador as “just another brick in the wall” of Moscow’s propaganda.
…
The Russian delegation’s invitation followed an interview Waters had given to the Berliner Zeitung in which he had been highly complimentary towards Vladimir Putin, who he said, according to a translation on his own website, “governs carefully, making decisions on the grounds of a consensus in the Russian Federation government”.
What the fuck. Putin governs carefully and makes decisions based on consensus? I guess you’re right. It’s pricks all around.
the thing with Waters is that he’s an oldschool conspiracy nut - so for every reasonable point he makes about 50-100 bullshit points that negate one good point he makes every now and then. He could’ve said stopped at ceasefire without elaborating and it would’ve been naive but benign - but he decided to elaborate and it was downhill.
At least he’s not making documentaries whitewashing the dictators like Oliver Stone.
Censoring “prick” as “p****” makes it sound a lot worse than it actually is. I can think of other five-letter words starting with P…
The word is PUSSY right? Like PRICK they can be used on the internet.
That’s what I expected but in the video he actually calls him a prick. I left it censored in the headline just to be true to the original on the source.
Uh I know! Is it a prawn?
Fookin’ prawns
Penis?
Yeah, prick isn’t what I was expecting it to be either, though I’d accept either of the two obvious options as accurate. 😀
Oh it was prick? I thought it was pussy lol
