Pink Floyd's Roger Waters shreds COVID 19 handling
‘Propaganda machine says it's OK for there to be Bezos & Zuckerberg’: Roger Waters tells RT how media shields Covid-19 villains,
Legendary musician Roger Waters joins Rick Sanchez to discuss the frustrating lack of cooperation between countries in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic. He points out the dangers of society ‘Propaganda machine says it's OK for there to be Bezos & Zuckerberg’: Roger Waters tells RT how media shields Covid-19 villains to a toxic "normal" following the crisis.
Calling “neoliberal economics” the “elephant in the room,” Waters said such cooperation is made near-impossible when public policy is driven by a “motive to maximize the bottom line of profit for the corporations that run our countries.” As many struggle to afford rent or put food on the table, some nations have responded to the pandemic by printing “billions, trillions of dollars” to dole out to the politically well-connected.
Fortunately, the rockstar went on, the internet has shattered the “constraints of the mainstream media,” allowing a community of like-minded people interested in human rights and “the truth” to flourish and grow.
“The main focal point of our conversation often is: How do we combat the huge propaganda machine that has persuaded most of our brothers and sisters that this is normal – that it’s OK for there to be Jeff Bezos and Mark Zuckerberg... and everybody else is on the bread line?” he said.
The propaganda that we’re faced with everyday is: ‘Ah don’t worry about that, leave it to your leaders, we’ll figure it out – what’s important is that we have a war with the Chinese or the Russians or the Iranians or the Venezuelans.’
Despite the obstacles, Waters said countless people are “slowly waking up” and growing more skeptical of corrupt institutions, encouraging them to keep up the pressure and continue speaking out.
“We refuse to shut up, we refuse to be quiet, we continue to rebel,” Waters said when asked about solutions to the social ills he diagnosed. “We say ‘No, this is bulls**t, this is just not good enough.’”
