Russell Brand

[Hrolf The Ganger]

How do you explain him being acquitted of the other charges if you think the jury were prejudiced?

You seem to be very sure that the outcome was correct, so I would expect you to know the answer.

I have to say....having watched Brand....I'd really like to know what these right wing talking points are that he is so pigeoned holed with.

I think this is just something that gets said enough times that people just end up accepting it.

If Brand was right wing I think I'd know.....but he isn't.

Member of the Labour Party.

Or was until today.

This type of transgression passes the full political spectrum.

I agree. He was questioning "power", which traditionally I thought the left did. But everything is upside down these days.

 

[Mattconrov]

Brand has been framed as right wing by the media; obviously that doesn't mean he is.

People into conspiracies are apparently right wing. People who wore masks during and after covid, were framed as Lefties. Governments the media and social engineering all at play I think.

There’s clearly an element laziness in the tag, but let’s not deny the obvious - his most recent interviews and podcasts appearances all tell a pretty clear story:
Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens, Ben Shapiro, Jordan Peterson, Steven Crowder and Dave Rubin…

He’s endorsed Trump, went to the Republican National Convention, and increasingly aligned himself with MAGA.

I’d agree he’s not a traditional conservative, and in fact I’d question how much of the above is a function of trying to avoid charges as opposed to genuine political agreement, but he has clearly allied himself with parts of the right over the last few years.

It's him setting people up to believe his inevitable downfall is some sort of 'elitist' conspiracy rather than him having to be held accountable for his own actions.

His pivot to 'Christianity' and pumping out commonly hashed internet conspiracy theories was pure self-protectionism. The people that used to employ him and pay to see him disowned him a long time ago so he turned to people like you that are willing to dismiss or downplay crimes that he's been actually been guilty of in a UK court of law to try and protect him.

Suspect he's nothing but an ego driven opportunist who's been prepared to say anything to get some money out of both sides. What does he actually believe? Why should anyone care?

How much of what we think is right and left politics, comes from the government, media and social engineering think tanks.

For instance Stirling doesn't think Brand is right wing.

Maybe they are trying to make us belive in group think a bit too much. Divide and rule etc.

We have a two tier system in this country created by the above organisations. That doesn't mean the people you meet everyday are treating each other as two tier necessarily.

I hope that makes some sense.lol

Not sure anyone can put it more succinctly than this.
