Dispatches/Sunday Times investigation: Russell Brand accused of rape and sexual assault

What’s your instinct say?

My instinct doesn't say anything. Media outlets are reporting that the UK government has sent out letters to media companies including Rumble which is what's on the video I posted, urging them to dissociate from him.

That seems an odd thing for the government to get itself into. You don't think so?

In fairness, I don't know. But you shouldn't conclude that just because I don't know why he may be targeted , that means he isn't being targeted

Which is implied in the tone of your question.

Channel 4 and The Times/Sunday Times aren’t the government mate.

In fact, I’d argue that certain factions of the Conservative Party buy into the conspiracy theories that Brand peddles

Do you think maybe it's telling that you believe he is being targeted?

As a simpleton who thinks of himself an intellectual, you are naturally disposed to charismatic leaders who use verbose sophistry to develop cult followings.

Fortunately, I am not predisposed to your sophistry. Perhaps it's coz you lack the charisma ingredient.


Oh well, keep at it.

Not channel 4. Watch the Hill reporting video I posted. The UK parliament or at least someone in it did. I assumed the UK parliament was the government.

I could be wrong.

Good point actually, half of them on GB News spouting not far off views to Brand.

What other media companies have they sent letters to? Anyway this is them wanting to shut him down not because of his views but because he’s a despicable degenerate. To be honest it smacks of knee jerk populism from what is a cross party committee or possibly just the chair of that committee acting on her own.

Again I’d be surprised if the government want to shut him down because he’s a degenerate, they’ve harboured a few themselves.
 
You lot are so addicted to doing the same thing over and over, lol. I mean, change the subject matter, but repeat every single stage of every 'argument' proferred.

Well, both Rumble and TikTok declined the government request. And Rumble posted the letter.

It's almost certain now that the immediacy of YouTube and Paramount's suspension of Brand is most likely as a result of a similar letter to those released by Rumble and Tiktok.

Perhaps that's what it is. It's wrong and worrisome.

I suppose they like their own degenerates more than they do degenerates who don't like them. This makes them human.

Verbose Sophistry would make an excellent band name.

There's no sophistry there. I just think you have a high opinion of yourself for no discernible reason. Perhaps it's because you have some deep insecurity and are massively overcompensating.

I imagine you as the sort of simpleton who reads the complete works of Robert Faurisson and David Irving and attempts to strike up a positive conversation about it at the dinner table.
 
He’s a flasher now as well - admitting showing his ‘willy’ to a lady on a BBC show.
The victim said “he pulled out his penis on his hand and pretty much served it to her as you would be serving someone food”.
And all this whilst dressed like an extra out of Pirates Of The Caribbean.
He’ll probably say he was a pretty promiscuous pirate back in the day but it was all consensual. Pull the other one oooer……..

People who do not trust governments not to misuse power. Are you really serious? You really can't think through the implications of this? Wow!

If he is being targeted by government and media because he's a violent sex criminal again, I don't see the issue.

Nobody cares about his charlatan views, they just simply don't carry the weight he thinks they do.
