They're suggesting a certain "comedian" in the Twitter X comments, but that's probably just who they WANT it to be.

There other comedians featured in it too apparently. I'm not sure whether it's ok to post who's been discussed on here, but there's some rumours on Deux Moi.

Is he??? I thoufht he was a leftist? I haven't followed him for a long time, but didn't he defend Corbyn and call out the right wing media? I can't imagine someone going leftist to Nazi.

Well he gushed over Ron de Santis who has applied a horrific homophobic policy of LGBT erasure in schools. He's definitely gone to the dark side with his interviews - whether it's because of the money or he's brainwashed due to the fact he's a dry drunk/addict not getting treatment.

Luckily in the UK we see very little of him nowadays thankfully.

Oh sad.gif That's a shame. Last time I checked in, he was all about Corbyn and left economics.

Lots of articles about it such as https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2...ndroidApp_Other

He poses as a "I'm just asking questions" type of presenter but this year only amplifies right and far right voices.

The fact he was left wing (and doesn't explicitly say he's not nowadays) means he's valuable to the alt right as they can say "Even Russell Brand thinks the left have gone too woke nowadays"

There's long been rumours about Russell Brand, but who knows. I suspect there are some pretty serious allegations. Also RE Russell Brand, he is one of those people who has just sold out and discovered how to make a lot of money. I don't think he believes half of the shite he spouts these days, but it's clearly a big winner for him so he just follows the money. Politically he's very left wing, but he's just been influenced by the alt-right in a way a lot of conspiracy theorists have, and also discovered they can make a lot of money in the process.

Yes, I imagine the allegations must be pretty large - I don't think there'd make a 90-min documentary about it if there wasn't decent evidence.

Oh, Russell Brand's been too far gone for a long time now, Covid and the anti-vax sentiment made it all the more apparent. The fact he's best mates with Jordan Peterson tells you all you need to know. If he is at the centre of whatever this is, it's not a huge surprise.

y’all need to catch up on the post-left/MAGA communism. grifters who made a name as socialists during the bernie/corbyn heyday, realized pandering to the alt-right made more money, and now ally with people who spout reactionary nonsense nonsense or spout reactionary nonsense themselves while dressing it up in Marxist terminology. lots of them funded by venture capitalists with reactionary views like Peter thiel, also big proponents of culture war bullshit. i haven’t paid attention to Russell brand in years but it seems from what others have said he’s gone down this route.

So he reacted to the mainstream and establishment torpeoding the left by grtting bankrolled by thr alt right. Maybe as revenge against the establishment?

Nope, just someone who believes in nothing but has the ability to be charismatic and wants to make lots of money by being loud about it on his show. Always telltale signs with these sorts of people and Brand hit all of them a long time ago.

He'd pull for the establishment if they paid him enough (under an obfuscating guise). Good riddance to him if he's done something to get in serious trouble.
