I'm offended by Brand's mere existence.

It is most curious to see righty-tighties defend a commie though, peak enjoyment tbh.

It's utterly bizarre, I was never convinced of his new political stances. It always came off to me as inauthentic and showboating. Something to massage his messiah complex, he's been nothing but a BS artist from day one.

Oh like the truth he's been spreading.

Let's just sit back and let the tyrants takeover us all.

Him making money by merely saying things whilst his audience does what? Nothing.

Love as in platonic, consensual, stalker, Jimmy Savile or full on Fred West?

He's just really good at blagging. But he says things that make him popular.

Compare him to someone like Konstantin Kisin and you can see the intellectual cavern that separates them.

Not sure if i've been reading too many posts from 'the other side' but this seems.... bizzare? Why are the government writing to social media companies (they also sent one to tiktok apparently) before he's even been convicted of any crime? And what does his unrelated content (other than the reply video) have to do with these allegations?

just prostitutes himself to causes - it's not like legit left leaners - Ben Elton , Alexi Sayle - people who are also funny not crass.

If only the government got done this way

The govt needs to shut the hell up unless they're about to write it down in law that unproven accusations must be acted on as if true.

The government has no right to pressure a private company in this manner.

Given they have also just passed the Online Safety Bill, with it's potential for legislative creep, actions like this letter are a little concerning

Can you try using different words? You're borderline incomprehensible. What are you trying to say?

Oh I bet if they did. They'd make it so they were immune.
