    Where?
    I have talked of how the right rush to defence of anyone THEY perceive to be right wing but I doubt I declared him a Republican - especially since he is British and they are mostly to the left of the American centre

    He's not right wing. I don't get why you think he is, he's practically a commie.

    Somewhat surprising if you are asserting that he did so with embrace and acceptance, in spite of WBK’s endorsement with his creation of this thread. It’s so f’d up as to be along the lines of Nixon Rs embracing Timothy Leary and Tom Wolfe, tuning out & dropping in, or verse visa….


    Uh, edited to add that of course Russell B uh, well, meh, what? I found both him and Joe Rogan interesting at one point in time, briefly, less, well less, than I found Bill Crosby so…..

    I never heard of this guy until recently, I saw the headlines in the NY Post and wondered why is this guy in the news. I have no idea if he is innocent or guilty, or what proof they have against him. If he’s guilty then do to him what they do to all rapists.

    Which doesn’t explain the conspiracy theories around the allegations.
    He promotes whacked out conspiracy theories that are popular on the right

    Gutfeld covered this tonight and it was the first time I ever heard Brand’s voice. He sounds annoying and arrogant.

    You should see if you can find a video of Gutfeld’s show and listen to what he says.

    Gutfeld played clips of Brand trashing him nine years ago.

    He definitely went from regular lefty socialist anarchist to some sort of joe Rogan conspiracy nut. Guessing it’s just a financial choice.

    I'm weary of accusations leading to actions without proof.

    Would it matter if it was actually true or a false accusation.

    Um. Yes. That matters a lotml.

    I get it, but this isn’t the place to discuss the house impeachment of Biden.

    I’m glad to hear you find criminal verdicts to be proof.

    Never said I didn't.

    Not sure why your trying to spin this back on me when it was your failed logic instituted for partisan reasons as always.

    Hey I’m just surprised. Every day another righty here tells me none of the republicans who get convicted are actually guilty. I agree he’s not proven guilty unless he’s convicted. But the public can still form their own opinion and people can choose if it’s credible enough they don’t want to do business with them. Bud light broke no laws, but people still made choices and it had consequences.

    Who's talking about impeaching Biden? An inquiry is not an impeachment, it's an investigation.

    I was responding to a suggestion that the BBC shouldn’t take any action until Brand is convicted.

    Bud Light was associated with someone who wasn’t doing anything illegal. Never convicted of a crime. But their brand suffered.

    So it is perfectly legitimate for the BBC to disassociate itself from Russel Brand before he is convicted.

    What’s wrong with what the BBC is doing?

    The BBC conducted their own internal investigation. They obviously found enough evidence to satisfy themselves they should take action. The two actions they took were to remove his content and refer the matter to police.

    What exactly do you disagree with?
