leemond2008 Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 Brand doesn't bother me, I used to find him quite funny, he was good on quiz of the year that one time with noel fielding. I've watched a few of his YouTube videos and they are just the rantings and a dandy who swallowed a dictionary, he isn't exactly a big deal these days is he.

Ryan has said for a few years that there's a rapist in the UK comedy scene and it's a well known thing in those circles but it never went to the police and open discussion of it was lawyered down. She's never revealed who it allegedly was but whenever she's done it Brand quickly would be name people went to and she's apparently hinted at it being him on various occasions without actually stating it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not a big deal in the mainstream, which is why, unless the allegations are absolutely heinous, he must only be a part of a bigger story. He has made a nice little niche for himself as a modern day guru peddling nonsense spiritually shit to Karens and pushing Trump/QAnon/etc right wing conspiracy shit, which apparently pays him rather well. It's got to the point he sells out little festivals and gatherings for his followers to do yoga and talk about how vaccines are evil and pay hundreds for the privilege.

He’s going with the “it’s an attack on me because I’m getting close to the truth” that the likes of Farage, Yaxley-Lennon and Alex Jones failed with. He’s in big trouble. He can say he has witnesses all he likes but if there’s people saying he did x, y and z to them then it doesn’t matter about other witnesses.

I mean , Brand being a sex pest is hardly a shock , so you might well be right , but we should probably wait for all the evidence and for Brand to check himself into a clinic with mental health issues before we reach any conclusions 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m suggesting if there are people that say he did bad things to them then it makes 3rd party opinions less valid. We’ll have to wait and see I guess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
