Some of his controversial statements:
He said that blame for the Ukraine war is a lot more on the US than we're being led to believe and that we shouldn't be blaming it all on Russia and to be careful about dehumanizing the Russian people. There's a lot of that I agree with, but I can't get with anything that's pro-Putin.
That the purpose of the state of Isreal is to instigate war in the middle east and enable the genocide of palistineans. I completely agree with this.
Waters being a complete a-hole, well, the books been out on that for 40 years. To be fair, Gilmour is only slightly less of an A-hole and I wouldn't take his statements as objective.
Seems like he's being roasted for being anti-war and a general a-hole. Hard stance to take when most of our institutions tend to be pro-war. The Epstein island stuff is super gross, everyone wants to hold on to the notion that the artists they like weren't that involved, but it's hard for me to think of anyone getting entangled in that world and coming out of it clean.
