Russell Brand

A conspiracy theory that actually compels me is the one that says Fidel Castro is Justin Trudeau's father. If you look at him next to photos of Pierre Trudeau and El Presidente, it is very convincing. He also has his alleged dad's impressive height (Castro was 6'3, J.T. is 6'2). And Trudeau père? 5'6.

yeah, dude, we know. they're basically a mirror image of each other. how some people claim not to see that, i dont know. in fact, when trudeau first came on the scene i thought he had latin ancestry. i mean, i looked at him, and my evolved to recognize such things brain told me, "that is a latino man." i didnt think about it much, because if i had i would've said "wait a minute how does that work when i know that pierre trudeau is his dad and margaret trudeau is his mom??" well, now i know how that works, and so does everyone else who isnt willfully being ignorant.

i wonder if that's why trudeau is the way he is, being all dictator-y and such. i mean, i dont mean that it's in his genes, but maybe he looks at his dad and thinks that he should be more like that. like, maybe his major influence isnt actually the wef, but an age old desire to live up to his dad and make his dad proud.

Maybe the will to authoritarianism is part of why some women find him attractive. "Every woman adores a fascist" was overstating things, but it must be true in certain cases. The Spanish genes are probably another part. And as we've learned today, he certainly has very curvaceous gluteus muscles.

George Galloway has commented on the Brand allegations. Agree with much of what he says here:

Negotiations led by José Bustani, director general of the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW), on Iraq’s accession to the multilateral organization were scuttled. Because Bustani refused to bow to US demands to stop the negotiations, the US government used fake news about mismanagement to pressure the participating countries in the OPCW to remove him from office. The smear campaign was successful.

A documentary about another successful smear campaign, against Bustani, came out a few months ago. Looks good. His insistence on telling the truth got in the way of cowards in power - https://www.idfa.nl/en/film/7976a1e4-0c19-4716-8ec1-89fd72afcffc/a-symphony-for-a-common-man/

Has Brand said anything about the allegations? I feel he either should have commented, carefully, sympathetically, or he should have already withdrawn from public appearance and let someone else take over presenting his channel, at least for a while. Men have tended to emerge from these debacles in much better shape and with less harm done than women.

Would it be cynical to think that he (Brand) started pushing conspiracy theories when it became clear to him that this would all come out eventually and a public reckoning was inevitable, and his only line of defence would be “the establishment is taking me down”? He knew his old fans would desert him, his new ones wouldn’t.

No because he's been talking about similar topics for over a decade going all the way back to The Trews.

Lol. what’s with the hat? and why is he shouting? Couldn’t get through that.

Arghhh, had forgotten all about George Galloway. He's been eclipsed by all these other characters now.
I believe he started wearing the hat after he was attacked in the street one time. Think he was left badly scarred.

I see GBNews is busy cancelling itself.
 
Anyone else think he looks like a mixture between a Rabbi and Nigella Lawson?

Sorry, George! :tiphat:

LOL women DONT find him attractive. maybe in the beginning when they thought he was just a harmless flake they did. i dont know anyone who finds him attractive NOW. i always thought he was sort of cringey with his long curly locks, sort of the way michael bolton or fabio are cringey.

Men seem to love him too, john snow was literally flirting with him in his C4 interview. Hes 'everybodies lover everybodies brother' as some people like to say, he took that kind literally. Errr..for betta for or worse, just saying cos of the recent coo about him commiting sexual assault. Hes kinda hyper, dont know how he manages meditation.

There is something fem about him. :hearteyes: he really does have an amazing personality though. All things about him make me think how he is like a diamond among slag!

Yes, Brand has always had more than a touch of Dionysian sexual ambiguity - we all love a bit of that. David Bowie, Morrissey, the list is endless. Interesting too, of course, that in the Bacchic rites that celebrated the cult of Dionysus, the young god was eventually torn to shreds by mobs of his crazed followers. Is that the mythic cultural phenomenon that we are seeing being played out here? Pretty much the same myth was seen in the worship of Tezcatlipoca amongst the Aztecs, where a young man was treated like a king and worshipped like a god for a year, he was denied no pleasure and could sleep with whoever he wanted, and then at the end of the year he was ritually sacrificed. In many ways Ziggy Stardust is basically a 20th century take on that mythic archetype.

It’s definitely not his great intelligence and pleasant personality if that’s what you mean…

Talking of which, they had one of the top geezers from the trucker thingie on Triggernometry last night. That was :fire:

Yeah, I watched it! I liked it but it would have been better if they had Tamara lich on instead. She was more involved in the convoy on the ground and is a very intelligent and warm woman and gives better answers and analyses in my opinion. She may not be allowed out of Canada though, not sure. I'm not sure what bj meant with his answer to the last question--Islamist entry--but Konstantin seemed in a hurry to shut down the interview after that :lbf:
