Regardless of what you might think about ex-Pink Floyd mastermind Roger Waters, you canโt say he isnโt passionate about his beliefs. In a new video Q&A segment posted on his social media pages, the 80-year-old Rock & Roll Hall of Famer was asked what he would say if he could talk to his younger self, prompting a fiery response.
At the beginning of the clip, Waters reads the question, sent by a fan named Cesar Garcia, which is phrased, โWhat would you say to the Roger Waters of the past?โ

โWhich one?โ Waters quipped, adding, โWe are many-faceted human beings,โ before delivering an ardent, expletive-filled response.
โI would just encourage me to do exactly what Iโm doing, which is standing my f—ing ground, responding to โthe man,โโ he declared. โF— you! I am here to resist you, all you a–holes out there who donโt believe in love and cooperation, who believe in perpetual war and couldnโt give a s— about any of their brothers and sisters all over the world.โ
He added, โWe are gonna stand up to you, and I encourage all my brothers and sisters all over the world to resist this global economic plan thatโs destroying the world.โ
Waters, of course, is known for his fervent support of the Palestinian people, and regularly condemns Israelโs policies toward them. His outspoken activism on this issue and other causes has deeply divided many fans.
