Remember when Portnoy was also going to be cancelled because he was falsely accused.

The most zen peace promoting advocate that exists. Went thru major alcohol and drug abuse recovery to live a completely clean spiritual life is a piece of sh1t to you?

Some doctors lost their careers because they recommended some patients to not get the chinese flu crapxine.

Yeah, it wouldn't surprise me one bit.  Of course few celebrities would at this point, tbh.

No, pretty sure no one ever actually accused him of rape 

[wiffleball 4,790]

Dude deserves some Raperations.*

Focker married and slept with Katy Perry.  Yuck Yuck Yuckity Yuck.

 

 

 

* see what I did there?

[TimHauck 2,858]

These allegations are worse than Portnoy, one of the women does specially say Brand raped her.

I’d like to wait for more information, odd that Elon Musk doesn’t seem interested in that.

[TimHauck 2,858]

He was dating one of the girls when she was 16 and he was in his 30's.

Groomers gonna groom.

[TimHauck 2,858]

Worst parts of the article IMO:

One woman has medical records from being treated at a rape center.  Also has text messages with him where after she says "no means no" he replies "I'm very sorry...I will make it up to you...you don't need to get tested" - doesn't look great

16 year old said Brand referred to her as "the child" and asked her to save his phone number as "Carly" and coached her on what to say to her parents.  Yeah, groomers gonna groom.

I’d suggest reading the article.  There is a decent amount of evidence, even from the time the alleged incidents happened.

Nothing like Portnoy situation IMO.

So why now?  almost 20 years later?

This #believeAllWomen has turned into a grift and money-making scheme.  The problem you have is that when your side is accused of the same thing you're nowhere to be found.  I mean, we have literal video evidence of Biden fondling young kids and you don't want to believe your lying eyes, but an allegation from almost 20 years ago against someone you don't like?  Oh, hell yeah!   #BELIEVEALL WOMENT!!!!!!

BIDEN!!!!

Some of the women claimed and have record of considering going public when it happened, but were concerned about the backlash due to his celebrity. Sure, it seems like they were motivated to speak out by journalists digging for a story, but if there’s actually something there, what’s wrong with digging?  The people going after Portnoy were digging when there wasn’t anything there.

Maybe his whole early shtick wasn’t an act.

It is f-ing disgusting and these authoritarian bastards cheer it on.  

Do people really want unelected bureaucrats and mega corporations stripping peoples basic rights away based on the flimiest of reporting from anonymous sources? 

There is no recourse for the individual.  There are no checks on these actions.   Anti-establishment types are being stripped away basic rights and all the bootlicking brownshirts cheer it on.  

Have most Americans really gave up what made this country great.  Individual liberties.  Government bound by a Constitution which protected their rights.  Equal justice for all. 

We have turned into a nation of fascist bastards who worship at the alter of the elite ruling class of our massive bureaucracies and mega corporations.  

 

[JustinCharge 2,397]

what few people understand is that r kelly is monetized on youtube yet is was tried, convicted and sits in jail for sex crimes.  russell brand is demonetized for simple allegations.  it only makes sense if this is just because youtube doesnt like russell brand's politics.

[RLLD 4,230]

Brand made himself a target. Not sure if he fully understood that would be the eventual outcome, but he strode out and starting calling out the powerful.  I appreciated him for his courage in doing so, but this was easily predicatable and hopefully he is as intelligent as he seems to be, and took action to shield himself from this tactic.  

Then again, maybe he is a pervert like Epstein.  Hopefully he does not have a list of powerful people abusing kids, since we know how that turns out.

[jonmx 2,429]

And if anyone bothers to read the reporting with a skeptical eye, even accepting them as fact, you realize what BS they are. 

Rape supposedly was Brand not using a condemn.   According to the text, Brand had asked the previous time if he should use a condom and she said yes.  Then they have sex another time, and in the heat of the moment no condemn was used and she admits in the text she made a bad decision and Brand apologies to her.   She did not say no and she knew he wasn't wearing one.  How the f is that rape.   Does a request to use a condemn two weeks ago create a standing order which must be adhered to forever.  Does Brand need a written mod to a contract to proceed.  She consented, she knew, and she admitted she made a mistake.   But the slanderous story spins that as rape.  What a crook.

I guess you missed the text exchange where he apologized and did not refute her statement of saying “no means no”?  Probably not enough evidence for a court (hence why it’s not surprising allegations weren’t made earlier), but doesn’t look good.

It is not clear what she is implying by that.  If you take the texts provided in their entirety, it would seem that no was talking about the previous time where she refused sex without a condom and Brand complied by using one.  She admits she made a bad descion which seems to be she then allowed him to proceed the next time without the condom.   She appears to want the no from the previous time to be a standing order with applies indefinitely.   Brand did not ask the second time and took her actions as a yes.   That is a pretty dangerous interpretation to call that rape.   Brands apology was for not asking the question and accepting an implied yes.

[Hardcore troubadour 15,414]

Know what is no doubt true? Brand is a creep and probably did a lot of what he’s accused of. But no one would say a word if he didn’t have a significant platform where he questions the establishment.

Wrong.

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/youtube-r-kelly-official-channels-removed/

YouTube has removed two of R. Kelly's official channels, saying that the singer's alleged history of abuse and recent conviction can cause harm to the company's community and potentially damage creator and user trust, the company told CBS News. The move comes a week after Kelly was found guilty of sex trafficking and racketeering. 

And his victims get his half a mil in royalties

https://www.nbcnews.com/pop-culture/pop-culture-news/r-kelly-universal-music-group-must-pay-500000-music-royalties-victims-rcna101804

Disgraced musician R. Kelly and Universal Music Group must pay more than $500,000 in music royalties to his sexual abuse victims, a New York judge ruled.

Judge Ann Donnelly of the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York signed an order Wednesday stating that the music corporation must turn over funds satisfying Kelly's debt of $507,234.05.

Universal is in possession of at least $567,444.19 from the singer's music publishing royalties, the court order states.
