I knew that the Pink Floyd song "Another Brick in the Wall" had been adapted to counter vaccination propaganda but this video was the first time I'd really heard all the lyrics.
Regarding the original song, the following recent June 15th 2021 story is interesting:
Pink Floyd's Roger Waters says 'fuck you' to Zuckerberg, turns down Facebook's 'huge' offer
Roger Waters don't need no Facebook money. The Pink Floyd co-founder revealed he recently received a "huge" offer from Facebook to use the band's song "Another Brick in the Wall, Part 2" in an ad for Instagram — and he turned it down with some pointed words for CEO Mark Zuckerberg. "It arrived this morning with an offer of a huge, huge amount of money," Waters said, per CNN. "And the answer is, 'Fuck you. No fucking way!'" Waters went further by blasting Facebook's "insidious movement" to "take over absolutely everything," declaring he will "not be a party to this bullshit" while mockingly quoting from Zuckerberg's "missive" to him and blasting the Facebook boss as a "little prick." He made his comments at a pro-Julian Assange event, Rolling Stone reports. "How the fuck did he get any power in anything?" Waters asked of Zuckerberg. "And yet here he is, one of the most powerful idiots in the world." Source
Roger Waters is to be applauded for his outspokenness and he is to congratulated particularly for his uncompromising stance toward the rogue state of Israel. I was listening to the lyrics of "Comfortably Numb" this morning and was struck by this part of the lyrics:
Just a little pinprickThere'll be no more, ahBut you may feel a little sickCan you stand up?I do believe it's working, goodThat'll keep you going through the showCome on it's time to go
So reminiscent of the Fauci Ouchie propaganda that inspires despair for the fate of the human race.
Sometimes you think there is hope for humanity and then you come across a tweet like that and you think ... nah! What can you say to that? There's no clever riposte, just consternation.
