      “Boy, that escalated quickly… I mean, that really got out of hand fast!”

      YouTube censors Russell Brand, re-affirming the switch to Rumble

       

      Recall that when they censored Alex Jones, calling it a bad thing and people called you crazy.  Now we are here where a leftist with common sense gets his videos censored.

       

      The goal wasn’t to censor Jones so much as get the ball rolling on censorship in general.  For it to be accepted.

       

      Now thankfully we have a semi-free market which produces things like Rumble.  As as good as their intentions are, how long before they too are corrupted?

      I think freedom requires a constant refreshing and a mindset where the people are constantly vigilant for attacks on it because they will never cease.

      There was a time I really hated this guy. He was one of my least favorite people. Can’t believe how much he’s changed. I actually listen to his videos on a routine basis. Can’t say that I’m a fan, but he bends my ear and gets my attention now.

      Russell would be a great guest on FNT or Nerdrotic or DDayCobra or Salty Cracker. I do wonder if he avoids Alex Jones on purpose. Wonder if he would ever go on Tucker’s show?

      Brand really needs to put his videos on Bitchute. Bitchute is usually my go to site. There is much less filler and people talk about underground issues. You do have to wonder though if all this is just more subtle propaganda. Like, it’s still just his career. I remember laughing at him when he opposed Brexit and Nigel Farage. The stuff coming out of his mouth was off base. I see Russell Brand as kind of the new Bill Maher or kind of a Joe Rogan type.

      Yes I saw that about Alex Jones last week. Can’t say I’m shocked by it since they’ve been trying to have a go at him for the last few years. I might not have agreed on everything Alex said but at least he wasn’t afraid to voice his opinion about certain topics and celebs (such as Megan Markel and Katie Price. I admit I enjoyed it on more than one occasion when he was having a right go at them! Those two “ladies” aren’t as popular as they think they are. The way Katie treats that severally disabled boy of hers…I’m surprised social services have never been to her house!).

      Not a fan of Russel Brand either but as you said, I’m surprised at how much he’s changed too.

        I like Russel.  He is a critical thinker.  Does that I mean I agree with everything he says?  No.  But isn’t that a normal position for anyone?  Do you know anyone outside of Christ you agree with 100%?

        I don’t agree with anyone 100% not even myself.  So thinking you need to agree with someone 100% to “support” them is ridiculous.

        Let’s also speak to the fact we need to allow folks to evolve.  People change, we all do.  MANY (maybe even most people) start out liberal and become more conservative as they age because they learn about the real world.   We have to give folks the elbow room for this.

          Iv’e followed him for awhile now. Not a huge fan, but I love how he promotes the simple fact they we ALL have common ground and need to focus on that instead of all the division propagating our media. I respect him because he is a free thinker, even when I don’t agree with him. He asks uncomfortable questions sometimes, and those need to be asked. I watched his video on the content removal, and he his right about the hypocrisy.

          Jimmy Dore is another guy I used to loathe, like Brand, who I watch now. Both these guys just seemed to naturally talk about subjects in a way the interested me.

          Russell Brand CENSORED By YouTube!
          Oct 2, 2022 Russell Brand has built a substantial following on YouTube by taking iconoclastic stances on controversial issues, but now YouTube has demonetized a couple of Brand’s videos after the comic actor and commentator admitted to sharing a mistaken interpretation of information taken from the CDC website. But as he points out, plenty of mainstream media commentators share misinformation without their videos being demonetized or taken down by YouTube. So why the double standard?

          Jimmy and America’s Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss Brand’s rise as an online commentator.

            Dore is a pretty hard leftist but he is a man of common sense as well.  I do respect his takes and I do agree with some of the things he postulates.  I think common sense folks (on any side) tend to agree what the problems are they just might disagree on the solutions.  And that is OK.  We arrive at the best solution not by ceding to one side but by hearing everyone out.  That is compromise.
