Thanks for this detailed downward spiral of Brand. I’m more & more convinced that everyone is copying other YT subjects, titles & sometimes even thumbnails, scripts nearly word for word often alongside redundant article clips. So many people think it’s okay to emulate successful creators no matter the message or how dangerous the content or conspiracy theory. I had no idea he was so desperate for recognition, relevance and obviously hard up for money. Also, he doesn’t have to deal with the consequences of the fallout here in America! Problem for the world right now is this conspiracy crap is lucrative grift and power hunger combined with greed means this Alt Right Q Anon MAGA & fascist bs is extremely contagious — seems to be evolving into a politically dysfunctional pandemic of sorts 🙃
It’s sad that I listened to Brand back in the day when he was on the Liberal vent and sensed he was changing course with the pandemic conspiracy stuff; I honestly felt I was being lied to and I would experience a detachment from reality for a few seconds and I avoided him all together. I was required by my job to get the shots and all the boosters and I was miserable with the side effects and feeling so ill I couldn’t work for over a week, fighting with my company to allow me more time to get better but they would just say the shots didn’t bother them this badly or at all. I think about this time I was just not trusting anyone in the media saying “get the shot”; I did and I was losing work and falling behind. The company put out its official stance on the pandemic and making shots mandatory. I had coworkers lose their jobs over it and I was feeling sluggish all the time like I had a flu that wouldn’t leave, Brand was a guy I liked but I didn’t want to hear how things were getting worse because of social media or conspiracy theories as this was creating an environment of distrust and paranoia. I wanted to have some peace of mind that I was doing the right thing. All the while I would drag my ass out of bed with clammy sweats and fight to get a doctors note for more time off. My temperature was over 100 and this was all from the shots; testing negative for COVID 19 repeatedly. I didn’t want to hear the screaming and yelling about how the government was behind this. I knew Trump wasn’t doing anything to keep us safe and all the safe guardrails were off for public policy.
I wrote several really long comments about how disgustingly missleading this article is. About how it could not be further from the truth, but I decided to delete them and boil it all down to one thing: watch Russell’s articles for yourself. His views have not changed. His core values are exactly the same as they’ve always been, and instead of taking someone else’s word for it, I invite you to watch them for yourself. You’ll see that this literally might be the most disingenuous article on YouTube. The funniest part is that she even destroys her own argument by showing that Russell put out a Covid article that got tons of views, and then went back to spiritual stuff, and then went back to the stuff they got views. That means it’s not a grift. He truly does hold those views, and always has. And notice how she doesn’t actually provide an argument for anything that she claims Russell is wrong about. Not once. She just insults him. If that’s not the biggest red flag ever I don’t know what it is. It’s the hallmark of the intellectually and morally bankrupt.
This ‘Hero of the left’ thing was bizarre; I’m old enough to remember when Brand first appeared, became huge, subsequently retreated to mindfulness podcasting, was cancelled and became a poster boy for conspiracy theorists. At no point on this journey did most people on the left think he was anything other than somewhat annoying.
Pinky & the Brain, one is a genius, the other’s insane… Narf! Why, what are we going to do tonight Brain? Same thing we do every night Pinky. Inject ourselves with horse dewormers? No Pinky– Drink bleach? No Pinky– Suntan our taints? No Pinky– Zort! No Pinky, tonight we will– Buy Twitter? No Pinky– Design a pair of golden sneakers? No Pinky– Wait… No! Tonight we will try– Incite a mob to protest a movie about a Barbie doll? Pinky. You’ve been reading my private journal. Zort!
I read his book “Revolution”. There is some beautiful stuff in it and he obviously has a great way with words. BUT In the end, the recommendation of the book is to just do things through the democratic means that we already have at our disposal, because violence is bad(obviously) – so we have to run for office and try to get people to vote for us, just like Bernie Sanders tried.
Brand has admitted that he is a manipulative narcissist, but he is probably also psychopathic. He will do whatever gets him what he wants, which usually means the most attention. He doesn’t care about the consequences for others. That’s why the sexual abuse allegations are so convincing, because they allign very well with his personality and behaviour in general.
Instead of perusal Russell Brand articles, you so called journalists should go talk to the swathes of doctors with major concern about vaccine efficacy and safety. Talk to academics and historians about how the ukraine conflict has been brewing for 30 years. Do your jobs, unless your job is marketing for drug and weapons manufacturers!!!!
I remember Brand once said about his past “that time I tried to start a revolution from my bedroom.” Then covid hit and he went in. I saw him talking about the bio labs in Ukraine, which he is right about in them being there ect, but he fails to mention the fact that when the Soviet Union broke up and Ukraine was born again, as part of the neutrality deals they covered these labs. The Soviet’s built them there for god sake. Apparently that bit of information was not relevant. It’s sad to see him slide back down the ladder with his website.
I used to follow him for his interesting interviews of spiritual leaders. Then when Covid hit, he began acting so weird. He started going down this path I couldn’t follow, didn’t want to follow. I thank the powers that be I didn’t fall for his conspiritorial claptrap. It was sad really. As a side note, Covid pandemic really messed with the minds of other prominent people, not just Brand.
Why should asking about the origins of the war in Ukraine be a problem for Helen of the Atlantic. Angela from Germany didn’t think it was beneath her as a subject when she spoke to Der Spiegel, and her answer was not just “there’s a war in Ukraine cuz Vlad invaded. Maybe its the hyper simplistic answers acceptable to the credulous at TR and possibly Helen herself, though I suspect she knows full well what’s going on, but chooses to conspire to mislead – conspiracy …… maybe?
I loved Under The Skin where Russell had deep, searching conversations with all sorts of interesting people from politics, the acting world, politicians, psychologists and philosophers. With this new show on Rumble it’s become very showbizzy, shrill, hyped-up and ungrounded. Russell comes across a bit more like his comic persona from his ‘addict’ days and I find it difficult to listen to. He’s still asking questions but he doesn’t feel centred and grounded like he did on Under The Skin
It used to be i dont like what you say but will fight for your right to say it to, I don’t like what you say so no one should be allowed to say it. This is the result of feminist politics, emotional resonance and hysteria, hate and offence over logic and facts and anything don’t like must be conspiracy, hate speech or discriminatory.
All the crazy CT articles are raking in loads of money on here. Make no mistake about it, all these monetised anti vac & conspiracy articles are earning a fortune for so called CT’s with not one medical qualification between them (although you will get the odd retired nutty professor type cashing in too). A certain CT whose name begins with D is reported to have made over 7 million during the pandemic. It’s about time the so called ‘woke brigade’ really woke up to these con merchants.
