A very, VERY good discussion between the brilliant Chris Hedges and the equally brilliant Roger Waters of Pink Floyd fame, who is risking his personal freedom to stand up for Palestine.

A great insight into the history and rationale behind the current streak of fascism in the UK.

If you have 46 minutes to spend intelligently, you owe it to yourself to listen to this.

    I stopped listening to Roger Waters when he started parroting Russian pro war propaganda.

      I myself was made aware quite recently of just how fucking fascist the UK has become. I shouldn’t’ve been surprised, seeing as though any idiotic thing coming out of the US is parroted without fail in the UK 6 months later. So it stood to reason that the UK would become just as fascist as the US. But just how violently fascist really took me by surprise.
