People change, and while there's no undoing the past, the more introspective acknowledge where they've been wrong, or their behaviours destructive. Case in point: the last time Waters was in Edmonton, at the end of the show while the band was jamming out the last riffs, Waters was down on the floor walking through the first few rows, shaking hands, smiling and interacting with the fans. It was pretty incredible to witness given his history, the infamous incident in Montreal and the ultimate writing of The Wall. It think it was that CFL coach Tillman that copped to a minor sexual assault offense that I recall saying that if we judged everyone by their worst moments then their would be no friendships or marriages in this world. Something like that.
So while I agree Roger Waters has been a dick nearly all of his life, I also see that he's aware of it and is trying, in his way, to make reparations.
