OMG someone close to him needs to step in.. the money he’s spending on complaints could be better spent on help for him!

He WILL likely try it on with my Job 2 workplace/colleagues at this rate as we're local to him and very Pride Flaggy & I don't trust myself to be discreet about it

I thought looking at this 'I bet this is the same Local Character who tried to sue a bank for having a pride flag & yep it is! Someone needs to intervene on this guy, or at least stop giving him fleeting fame every time he launches a crank complaint www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home...

3, around the time allegations were getting loud, he cynically pivoted to the us/uk hard right, who embraced him utterly even as it all became public, possibly BECAUSE of that, and we are EXTREMELY overdue an international conversation about just how rape happy the modern right is.

2, this rethink needs to happen FAR more urgently in the British and American entertainments industries. The platforms the uk political left gave brand are peanuts compared to the fame, money, power & unaccountability handed him by the international media & he's one of MANY who've abused it

Multiple things about brand can be true: 1, Rape culture & misogyny can get a foothold anywhere, inc the left. Brand did identify as LW for some time & was given positions of influence & instead of ignoring that we can all (esp lw men) reassess how we listen to flagged concerns about Big Name Men

Same with The Unnamed Celebrity, assuming it's the one we're all pretty sure it was, who is alleged to have specifically used the positions of fame & power given to him to groom teens inc minors.

Rapist Russell Brand's been found guilty. Now can we please look carefully at the systems that were in place to protect him, promote him, help him use his fame & money to acquire & silence victims & then attempt to Faithwash his reputation? Because EVERYONE FUCKING KNEW.

University of Nottingham, right now, is cutting 560 jobs. Do we need to rebrand universities as very large, very clean, land-based oil rigs to get government support?
