Music legend Roger Daltrey of The Who SLAMS wokeness: ‘they’re creating a miserable world’

The world-famous singer, who has had a career spanning nearly six decades, "joins in together with the band" by publicly decrying what he feels are major flaws in modern society, as other artistic icons such as Glenn Danzig have done.

Daltrey started in on how, in his opinion, the truth has been a casualty of the internet:

"It’s just getting harder to disseminate the truth. It’s almost like, now we should turn the whole thing off. Go back to newsprint, go back to word of mouth, and start to read books again. It’s becoming so absurd now with AI, all the tricks it can do, and the woke generation."

"It’s terrifying, the miserable world they’re going to create for themselves. I mean, anyone who’s lived a life and you see what they’re doing, you just know that it’s a route to nowhere. Especially when you’ve lived through the periods of a life that we’ve had the privilege to. We’ve had the golden era. There’s no doubt about that."

Daltrey talks more about his experience, contrasting how things were, and pointing out how people back then learned lessons they have appeared to have unlearned now:

"We came out of a war, we came out of a leveled society, completely flattened bomb sites and everything,” Daltrey said. “And we’ve been through socialist governments. We’ve seen the communist system fail in the Soviet Union."

"I’ve been in those communist countries while they were communist. I’ve seen how [laughs] 'wonderful' — really? — it was."
