Then it just goes to show there are moronic conspiracy mongering Brits too. The British government is currently submissively rolling over to transphobic religious fundamentalists. They're gonna let JK Rowling go on a fucking tear, but focus everything on Russell motherfucking Brand!?!?! Yeah, okay. I'm sure they have their evil meetings under Ping-Pong Pizzaria too.
Aren’t you the guy who argues that just because JJ Trek made more money than earlier movies doesn’t mean that it’s better than what came before? More people eat at McDonald’s than any Michelin starred restaurant. Does that make McDonald’s better? I think not.
Honestly? The timing is shitty. Brand has been apparently been a predator pretty much forever, and as instead of trying to cover it up, he built his public persona around it. MeToo has been around since 2017. Why did it take so long for anyone to get around to exposing him? But conservatives are idiots for trying to defend Brand just because he's been saying the things they want to hear lately. If they were smart they'd be disavowing him completely and condemning his actions, while still asking why the media seemed so uninterested in investigating him back when he was posing as a leftist. *This post was written while on a decent amount of codeine, so the sentences might not be the best.
Former CEO of Abercrombie & Fitch and his British partner are accused of sexually exploiting young men (both himself and arranging for guests) at parties he hosted at his US home and various hotels. It ain't quite the male version of Epstein and Maxwell (I can't see any reference in the article to the guys being underaged) but still pretty fucking squicky. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-66889779
She's more an enabler. Plus, she's just the celebrity face of a whole gang of Repugs covering for pedos. But gee whiz, I thought it was democrats, feminists, and LGBT people out to diddle the kiddies. It's almost like every accusation is a confession with Repugs. But that can't be, because they say "nuh uh!".
Yep. He made claims that "they" were out to get him for "speaking the truth," and it's like, guy, no one is targeting you for your conspiracy theory Youtube channel. Yeah, sometimes he has interesting things he talks about, but he has a history of sexual impropriety with women, and it was well before he started doing the Youtube thing.
It is probably because most people already assumed he was rapey based on his massive ego, dickishness, and rabid fanbois. I really would have found it quite shocking and would need to see proof that he was a decent and respectful guy. If you look up dick boyfriend in the dictionary Russel's picture is on top. I just assumed people watched out for him, but I guess not. I guess some people need a huge fucking sign and even then.

Teaching self-defense is kind of like being a psychologist: the people who can benefit the most from what you have to offer probably will never come see you. The idea that defending oneself necessarily involves fighting (spoiler alert: it doesn't) or is somehow not something women should do is heartbreaking. At least some of these women (not all by means) could have had a chance of not becoming victims, but the social norms somehow stand in the way. My classes right now are entirely male ranging from teen age to 40ish. They're all great people and eager to learn how to protect themselves, but I'd love to help women empower themselves. Funny, there seemed to be more who were willing to take the step pre-Trump made misogyny an accepted part of right-wing culture than there are now. I don't get it.
