Body Language Analyst REACTS to Russell Brand’s Denial! What Was his Video Really About?

Ойын-сауық

in a recent video, Russell Brand flat out denied the allegations brought against him in the media and in a documentary featured on Channel 4's "Dispatches.” But what do his body language, facial expressions and word choice reveal? And most importantly, what can we learn from a person with a lifetime of experience public speaking? Find out now!

    It's frustrating that everyone has to stand for either Brand, or for his accusers, and no one can simply stand in support of a fair, impartial, open, and objective system of justice. In my country, we have a famous list of wrongful convictions: Donald Marshall, David Milgaard, Guy Paul-Morin, Steven Truscott, Thomas Stephenow, and more. These names are familiar to every Canadian, and those cases used to be an embarrassment for our justice system, because they were considered a mistake by the imperfect application of an otherwise fair system. Now we have many people in government and other institutions stating that wrongful convictions are an *acceptable* *feature* of this new way that justice is done. That attitude will only lead us to ruin.

    Fellow Canadian here that agrees with you. Those names you highlighted paints a picture of a not so long ago past. Negligence within the judicial system happened, which sadly leads to a number of injustice and unfair convictions at times. However, in these times, the judicial system is being used as a tool for censorship by the ruling elite to stifle any form of dissent. *They did it to Julian Assange...*

However, I do have to consider how many are saying that because they already believe due process will prove Brand right, or already believer it will prove his accusers right. It is _essential_ that the motivations are not unfairly biased. It's okay to have some intuitive thoughts about a case, but neutrality must be the core starting point.

    Because people are allowed to be interviewed and make claims as to their experience. They are not obliged to lay charges and go through the experience of a court process. They can publicly make claims about what their experience was. Russell can also publicly deny that these things happened. He has not actually done that. What he has done is say the 'relationships' were always consensual, he has not stated that all interactions and actions within those relationships were consensual, nor that the women are lying. He has been advised to simply ‘refute’ the claims without actually addressing them specifically. That’s the game of Law. What it's looking like is that some of Russell's past behaviors have caught up with him from when he was exceptionally lusty and not exactly in control of his instincts. If he wants to he could take the women to court and try to sue them for defamation, however, to do that he would have to prove that what they are saying they have experienced is not true and factual. The women were in relationship with Russell years ago and what the women are talking about is behaviors during those relationships which were not cool for them. To talk and lie about their experiences would potentially put them at legal risk. It's not likely they are lying, rather simply testifying to their experiences, however, they could be. The story is that it was known for some time that there were particular women who had had bad sexual encounters with Russell, however, these journalists had to pull it together. Russell has been badmouthing media and thus journalism and taking the high ground regarding 'questioning'. Russell beckons attention and takes the high ground with very generalized criticism toward mainstream media. It appears a few journalists have decided to expose something of his questionable behaviors in the past with women by bringing them together for interviews on Dispatches, a show that reveals things.

This one with Russell is especially heartbreaking-if it’s true, it’s heartbreaking; if it’s not, it’s heartbreaking. I had to step away from reading about it and told my partner, “I can’t deal with this. I’m just going to wait and see what Spidey says.” You are my warm blanket of objectivity these days, sir. I wish these things could just be dealt with through functional legal institutions. It’s emotionally exhausting.

    Bottom line is, none of us know what happened. These allegations are for police and lawyers. The fact these allegations skipped over the law and went straight to the media paired with the particular topics that brand discusses on his channel make this all very suspicious. Most people arent saying hes innocent, theyre just saying that something is fishy about the way this all came to be. I think Brand did a great job pleading his case to his viewers.

    Yeah, the timing of it is a bit suspicious. They started this investigation 4 years ago, which was around the time he was gaining a lot of support for his criticism of the government and the media. I don't really like the guy, he annoys me after listening to him for a while, but he is highly intelligent and has some similar views to my own due to me experiencing some of the medias exceptional editing of footage and interviews of myself and friends to suit their own narrative and changing the context. He's dragged himself out of those crazy times with the drugs and addiction etc, got married and settled. It fucking sucks that it all comes back to get him after he's worked to change what a dickhead he's been in the past. I'm curious what the outcome will be now.

    Yes, we do actually. Channel 4 in the UK sent out a call for women to contact them as part of their "Russell Brand Investigation". This was a manufactured story, no one 'came forward' with this stuff, and the documentarists rejected participation from all the women with positive stories about Russell, choosing only the negative ones for inclusion - as we now know from the women who have come out, telling us that they were not invited to participate because they had nothing negative to say, and so on. So yes, we do actually know what's going on.

    That was a really interesting look at his denial. What bothers me about this case is the fact that yet again someone is being tried in the media before it's entered a court of law. I have no idea whether he's guilty or not. It wouldn't surprise me if he was guilty because of what he was like at that time and the amount of drugs he was taking. But even the guilty deserve to have a fair trial in democratic countries. They are trying to judge him and punish him before he has been found guilty by a court of law and that makes me really uncomfortable. If he's guilty by all means punish him. It's a heinous crime he was accused of. But at least give him a fair trial in a court of law first.

    I love your analysis and you are the first person on KZread to remain totally neutral in your presentation and that's how it should be. So many people have convicted Russell Brand for life based off of the media! Equally others have invalidated the complainants by making it all about the media. I personally admire Russell Brand for how he turned his life around and for his courage in speaking out against corruption. I do believe the media have a hidden agenda to silence him but that doesn't mean the accusations aren't valid. I actually work in trauma recovery from sexual violence. Consent is a very ambiguous concept and it's something that should be talked about more openly in public forums because honestly there are scenarios were consent can be wrongly assumed especially when drugs and alcohol are added to the mix. I'm not excusing wrong behaviour, I'm just saying that subtle signals can be missed when someone is drunk. People need to learn to verbally get consent! I remember in the good old days 😅😅 that if a guy wanted to kiss a gal he asked for her permission first! He didn't just lunge towards her and hurl his lips against hers....this is normal behaviour in today's society....people assume that just because they're experiencing chemistry, so is the other person, instead of saying 'Would you mind if I gave you a kiss?'. Anyway, my point is the same as yours. I believe Russell believes he always had consent.... but that doesn't mean the complainants did consent. I also believe that the mainstream media do want to take him down and this disgusts me because the media are exploiting these women to meet their own ends. This case is for the courts to decide and nobody's reputation should be destroyed so quickly and so publicly without due course. Thank you for the great work you do ❤

Personally, I can't say if he is lying or telling the truth and honestly that isn't my judgment to make. If there is evidence of wrong doing, he should be charged and tried like anyone else. Until he is charged with a crime it is just accusations and speculation, which does not prove anything. Whichever way it goes, I just hope truth prevails.

    Did you know that women are better at detecting masking/showy people than men? This is because more parts of the average female brain fire up when met with a person who seems fake or insincere. One study found that women were better at identifying men who were lying about their feelings. Women were also better at detecting men who were trying to manipulate them. Another study found that women were better at identifying men who were likely to be abusive in relationships. Women were also better at detecting men who were likely to cheat. These studies suggest that women have a natural ability to see through masking/showy people. This ability may be due to the fact that women have evolved to be more sensitive to social cues. Women may also be more likely to pay attention to nonverbal cues, such as body language and facial expressions. Here is an example of how this might play out in real life: A husband and wife go to a work party. There they meet a great guy, well that's what the husband thinks. When in the cab home the wife says you know, i did not like Mrx. Her husband says he is a great dude. two weeks pass and this great guy has been hitting his girlfriend and stealing money from his grandma. In this example, the wife was able to see through the man's mask and identify him as someone who was not to be trusted. She may have been able to do this by paying attention to his nonverbal cues, such as his body language and facial expressions. She may also have been able to pick up on subtle changes in his tone of voice or his word choice. Of course, not all men are masking/showy people. And not all women are good at detecting them. However, the research suggests that women have a natural ability to see through these people more often than men.

    What’s really terrible is that the people that make false accusations are really and truly HARMING the ones who’ve been abused. The reason I’m inclined to believe Russell is that I’ve read his book and listened to his talks about recovery. When I first was exposed to him, I honestly could not stand him!!! But, I’ve seen him be very open and honest about recovery and sought to do amends with those he’s harmed in the past. I find it hard to believe these issues weren’t addressed by himself and his sponsors when he started living an and practicing recovery. I don’t think the man is perfect, but he certainly hasn’t seemed to be the person to hide from his responsibilities/wrongs.

    We don’t need him to raise awareness of either of those things. I was diagnosed bipolar 20 years ago. I’m on lithium. Any other combination of antipsychotic and anti epileptic (used to treat bipolar) worked. Lithium has kept me sane and alive. Equally I’ve been in rehab for alcohol a few times and I’m in recovery. I certainly haven’t benefited from him monetising on either of those subjects. Even he can’t make people understand these illnesses. And I think he’s a classic example of untreated addiction and bipolar. IMO.

    I have to offer a correction, in that there are videos of other women approached by this media outlet, and they state that they were excluded, because their own stories didn't fit the narrative the media company was promoting. As well as released text messages from one of his accusers, indicating that she'd regretted the decision she'd made. So I find your commentary to be rather interesting, in the expressionary language. And commend you, for your maintaining a rather neutral stance in examining the case. It is quite refreshing.

That said, a lot of ppl in this comment section seem to want to judge him for his past and I don't think that's fair at all. As a former addict myself (won't say what I was addicted to) I think it is disgusting for anyone to accuse former addicts of atrocious criminal behavior just because of their past. He hasn't even been charged yet, and people want to say this and that, truly horrifying to me. Guys, people still struggle with addiction, and you making them out to be these menaces is going to make it harder for them to want to recover. That said, I am PROUD of his personal development and growth. I used to think he was grotesque, but the man he has become is so far removed from the man I saw in "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" that in my eyes he is very much brand new, and has been a new man for quite some time. I enjoy his content, I think he articulates himself very well, and at the end of the day, no matter what happens to be true, I hope that justice is served!!!

    I strongly disagree; having struggled with addiction gives you a better perspective. Brand was once a wounded and self destructive man. Many people think that having addictions means being an aggressive violent person, which is most often not true. People struggling with addictions are often sensitive people that use the addictions to numb the pain of overwhelming unprocessed emotions. Brand is a different man now. The work he does is a testimony to his inner work and his love and compassion for others. He initially suffered great losses speaking up and was ridiculed. P.S. I’m a somatic therapist and part of my job is reading people’s character structures.

    What is strange is that he starts by claiming he’s received letters attempting to silence him him and to stop him appearing at some festivals, that he shouldn’t be allowed to attack the mainstream media, and that the specific allegations are somehow added to a lot of other stuff aimed at silencing him. But- he’s not shown the letters he says are mainly focused on what he describes. Why not? They would certainly prove his point and cause an uproar if they were an attempt to silence him- that would be a kind of blackmail. it’s more likely the letters are informing him of the content of the documentary before it’s aired and the documentary was focused on allegations of sexual misconduct. That’s why I’m sure RB was trying to control this narrative with this statement and to convince his followers that he is being attacked for his views not his (alleged) actions before they see for themselves.

He's a human being. I would not waste 1 second of my time if i didn't believe him to be a genuine individual with much balanced knowledge to offer us all. I believe this tragedy is a pivoting time for him giving him the opportunity to grow beyond everyone's expectations. I disagree with the way it was brought straight to media instead the proper police authorities. I wrote down a quote he said in a short KZread video from a few? years back and ironically pulled that particular notebook out today "All pain is an invitation to burn EGO All pain is an invitation to let go of something. " Russell Brand, the video was titled 'When they don't live you back'. Please know I'm not saying he's a Saint or perfect but his intentions are genuine, he keeps himself real and has devoted this part of his life to helping us evolve. Spiritually and temporally.

The extra explanation at the end on "what body language analysis is and isn't" has never been clearer haha. It's a thing of beauty.😘 I noticed that cut, thought is was an odd choice, specifically since he is so emphatic in his denial, I figured they may wanna do a retake that leaves 0 questions for the viewers. Maybe there wasn't time.🤷🏼‍♀️ The going back to his comfortzone at the end had me raise an eyebrow, I'm glad you added some perspective there. That helps, and indeed it shows some great techniques for speaking to both a known and new audience. Cool lil masterclass.😊 The only videos I had seen before where in interview settings where he is shown at an angle, so i though the centre of the camera was for added impact. but as your analysis and some members pointed out, that in this setting he is almost always centre stage, so that didn't say much haha. Other than everything you allready mentioned one small detail that suggest to me that this video is indeed what he believes to be the truth, is that when he speaks about being open and transparent in his past, that he literally points both tumbs behind himself. It's his past. His viewpoint. It's not a story to us ( where he might point to past n present as a timeline). it seems to be his experience shared with us. That was a fun little detail. Standing alone it doesn't say much, but it compliments the facial expressions and his emphasis nicely. I have no big opinion on if he crossed lines or not either. But I agree, as public denials go, it's a strong one. And indeed it doesn't tell me much about anything in the case itself. What it does tell me is that you once again gave stellar content. Well rounded and fair and kind as always. Thank you 😘

    @@radish6740kinda bothers me that you are putting “sociopaths” in the bucket with “neurodivergent people.” Generally “neurodivergence” is reserved for those on the autism spectrum and/or ADHD. It’s occasionally broadened to include learning disorders. Such people have empathy, but often are “out of sync” in social cues and behaviors, not because they are being manipulative, but because they honestly see things quite differently. They are usually extremely honest, sometimes to a fault. Sometimes their habit of avoiding eye contact can be seen - incorrectly - as a sign of guilty feelings by people who don’t understand the origin of the behavior. Neurodiverse folks often avoid eye contact with everyone at all times because it’s overwhelming to them. Sociopathy, on the other hand, usually indicates someone lacking in empathy, who lacks a conscience, and who are very manipulative. They lie extremely easily because of those things, and it’s hard to tell that they are lying because they don’t display the signs of stress others show while lying. They are often quite likely to stare you right in the eye while lying. These are two very different groups of people. While yes, technically both types of brains differ from “the norm”, someone with sociopathy (aka Antisocial Personality Disorder, in the DSM) is not “neurodivergent.” - signed, someone both neurodivergent and in grad school for Counseling Psychology towards becoming a licensed therapist.

    Thank you for this even, very level analysis! I have to preface this as saying I’m not a Russell Brand follower- he’s way too manic for me and watching him wears me out. I do agree with many of the things he says though about the media and such. Yes, due to his drug use he could very well be remembering the encounters differently from how they happened. And again the alleged victims could also be remembering the encounters differently too. I wouldn’t be surprised one way or the other. What I do find concerning is that the narrative says that his behavior was a well known secret in Hollywood. Why didn’t someone speak out then? Why didn’t someone speak out when we were hearing about Harvey Weinstein and Bill Cosby? Why now? The timing makes it suspicious to me. And then there’s the thought of who knew about this and why didn’t they say anything? Kinda makes them accomplices.

    I will not say I believe 100% that he is innocent. HOWEVER, this very obvious collaborated effort on the media's part to shut him down (not conspiracy, its a fact) makes me lean towards his innocence. Even this video had a strike and Spidey couldn't run ads on it, which is so stupid. Spidey is not the only KZreadr that has been penalized for sharing any content related to this at all. I'll put it this way: if the media was fair about these accusations, and people weren't literally getting struck by social media algorithms just for talking about this subject, I would be 50/50 on this matter until the truth has been brought to light. But ppl need to seriously question why people aren't even allowed to have a conversation about this before charges have even been made. Freedom of Speech is under attack, and I fear this is just the beginning. At least Spidey was able to post the video, but not allowing for ads will make this video get a lot less views than it should. My question is, who is rich and powerful enough to have the influence over something like KZread and tell them to censor content about Russel Brand? and why? Think for your yourselves people.

  • @kingbeauregard

    Here is what I consider best practices when trying to evaluate claims of sexual assault: 1) Pay no attention, none, zero, to the reputation of the accused. We all thought Bill Cosby was too decent to be a serial rapist; that's how much we can trust reputation. 2) Focus on consistency of the accusations. Do the accusations change in fundamental ways over time? If so, consider them false. As a rape survivor once explained, when you've been a victim, there are no "versions" of what happened to you; there is only the horrible, unwanted reality of what happened. Now, I'm not talking about minor details that could conceivably shift because the trauma of an assault would make some recollections hazy; I'm talking about the accusation itself: what happened, where and when did it happen? 3) What happened immediately after the event in question? Are there witnesses who say the victim was in a traumatized condition? There may not be any direct physical evidence of an assault, but if people can corroborate at least elements of the story, that lends some credibility.

    Just to talk about point 3 - that one can be iffy. I was once drugged and nearly raped (thankfully he didn't go through with it) and the next day I was acting like nothing happened. I was coming up with all kinds of reasons I might have been unable to walk and passed out after only having not even half a drink. Denial can be a powerful thing. But that said, the other points you mentioned still hold - I've never changed one detail about what happened except that I finally acknowledged, years later, that it was drugging/almost rape. But I had people who would be able to say I was acting unusual that night, and the friend I told the next day recognised it for what it was immediately, even if I was in denial. I just wanted to point out that because of the nature of it, the person's emotions or perceptions of events might not stay the same... but certainly the description of what happened and where should be fairly consistent.

    I like the sea change around situations like Brand's, as reflected in the comments below. I think the Johnny Depp/Amber Heard defamation case made people pause around these accusations. It is always essential to take an accuser seriously enough to thoroughly investigate the allegations. Still, with Depp, many people online AND in media outlets automatically sided with his accuser, Amber Heard, and assumed he was a wife-beater. It turns out that not only was that not true, but the abuser (physically, emotionally, and mentally) turned out to be the accuser while Depp was actually the one who was abused. Some mainstream media outlets stood by Amber regardless of the evidence and the outcome of the defamation trial. However, the public seemed to have learned from that trial: Believe the accuser to ensure an investigation happens, then wait without judgment until the case is over. That is a massive step toward embracing the legal status of "Innocent until proven guilty." I don't know if Brand is innocent or guilty. Are these his victims, and he was too drugged up to remember that he forced himself on them? Or are they the new Amber Heards and trying to make money from the one-night stands they had years ago? Only an investigation will let us know. So we wait.

    As someone who has also had a period of extreme promiscuity in the past, I can speak a little about that lifestyle. When you are promiscuous, you have or develop skills that allow you to read the atmosphere and various microexpressions. You almost develop a sort of radar that helps identify those who are going to be more open to your advances. However, for balance, it is also true that individuals who are receptive to the promiscuity of others tend to be hypersexualized themselves. It has been my experience that when activities occur in those encounters that are outside the normal range of things, it has always been the other person who puts the suggestion of "naughtier" activities into play in the game of flirtation. I am a very open and accepting person; people feel they can approach me without hesitation. I can also present whatever various faces I need to in any particular situation. I can say with full confidence that I have never suggested that "we" do anything in particular or try something a bit more naughty. For instance, some people fantasize about a little rough play. Some are the pushers, and some are the pushies. It is not unusual for someone who has always fantasized about wanting some aggression to later reflect on it and decide they don't like it. It made them feel vulnerable or unsafe. But that is the risk each person in casual sexual encounters takes and must own their part in. I would actually enjoy some verbal repartee with RB. It would be interesting to pick and poke at him to see if I could get him to react first or if it would be the other way around. My superpower has always been that I can read men extremely well. It's a natural ability I've developed over time that began at a young age. I get no sense that Russell has ever hurt anyone or forced himself, no matter how high or drunk he may have been. I see in him the type of person who just wants to enjoy sex and intimacy because it feels good in the moment, because he's met someone else who wants to join him, and because they can. It is no more complicated than that. It's not for everyone, but that doesn't mean it's aggregious behavior, harmful, or "bad" for those who do. People in general confuse "sex" and "love,", believing they are or should be the same thing. Sex is something you do because you can, because it feels good, and because it's fun to do. Being in love, making love, and sharing that deeper connection with another person is entirely different from sex; sex is actually at the very bottom of the list of important things when you're in love with another person. And I just realized I've written another short novel 🤣

    Being straight has nothing to do with promiscuity, Mark, and even during that time? My "tastes" included both sexes (at the same time 😲) and anything and everything you can imagine. The example was just that, not a preference or a "taste". RB was a young man who had fame and fortune and who enjoyed sex as often as he could find it. Also, just because you are straight? That doesn't mean you do not seek opportunity. There are women (and men) who chase that type of person solely to put a notch in their belts. The *_only_* time the experience becomes important? Is when someone flashes money in their faces to tell their story. The juicer, the better. The sad part of this story is that these women were probably as drunk or high as RB, and anyone who has indulged knows that our inhibitions drop and we do things we normally would never do. 😲

Where there is a difference is with psychopaths because they don't have the same emotions and psychological make up as all other humans. They don't get the fear and shame response that everyone else has. It doesn't mean that there's never any leaking, but there's going to be a lot less.

He almost is giving full permission to his audience to have their own thoughts and use their own intelligence to come to a conclusion. But, since he brilliantly used the words at the end of his statement, he molded the audience’s thought process toward supporting him. Here’s a celebrity who has basically complimented his audience by acknowledging that they are intelligent, free thinkers and can rise above the media cramming their ideas down the audience’s throats. The audience will at least subconsciously recognize that compliment and be generous with their opinions toward him.

In the documentary they imply he was guilty of rape and they used a text of him saying sorry the next day but when I saw the whole messages he was apologising for having how's your father without a condom. The Government sent letters to sites that host his videos and put pressure on them to shut him down. I not judging guilty or innocent you need to establish that in a court of law not trial by media.

    As someone who didn't particularly like Brand because of how he portrayed himself earlier in his career; when he said people had been saying he needs to watch out and they're coming for you, I rolled my eyes and wrote it off as conspiracy echo chamber comments at best. I didn't think it was true because a lot of people had been saying it, according to him. I hadn't seen these people saying it myself, and were already critical to his channel from the limited exposure to his content I've had in recent years, seeing him as a bit of a conspiracy nut. I still think it's a bit far fetched and conspiracy theorist in nature, but it certainly didn't help when I looked at the Channel 4 News "documentary", that it completely painted him as guilty. It weren't news reporting, it was straight up sentencing, accompanied with sinister music, a series of choice clipped quotes from his edgier comedian days, cut to fit together with silhouettes of actors and supposed altered voices of the anonymous real victims describing what had allegedly happened to them. Then Rumble comes out condemning a branch of the UK parliament for having reached out to get them to demonitize his content without any trial. TikTok having received a similar letter from the same UK parliament branch where they ask for his content to be demonitized even if it were to be within the Content Guidelines of the platform. Wouldn't surprise me if KZread got the same letter and complied, as he is currently demonitized. I don't like to see someone being convicted before they have even been charged, before they have been tried, and before they have been convicted. To be judged and executed based on accusations from someone anonymous because a few media outlets paints it as real. And that is evidently happening with this case. These companies and the UK government are making his cooky conspiracy theories seem almost plausible. Now, I don't actually think the media is trying to silence him, that he was too close to the truth or anything like that, but I certainly think it's very dangerous for a body of the UK government to involve themselves in what is basically censorship. That is a dangerous step in the direction of having a government-controlled state-censored media. A future where we all live in dictatorships that decides what the public gets to view, what is deemed acceptable to them, something most people and governments supposedly condemns. If he is guilty, I hope he gets his due punishment. But I refuse to take accusations as truth before anything has at least gone through a trial.

    Not sure why you are surprised the government are getting involved. They set the laws of the country. They choose how broadcasting is regulated. The BBC was the first channel on TV. He can continue his channel he just can't get money for it. To be fair most advertisers would have dropped him anyway. It will be interesting to see if he continues his channel even though he can't make an income from it anymore. Depends how important it is to him to have a voice and public platform.

    I don’t watch him regularly, so it’s harder for me to see the differences. I can imagine that someone you are familiar with would make this a very interesting analysis. He’s certainly an attractive man (at least to me!), and that is also well known to skew people’s opinions. He also reminds me (visually) of someone I know who has certainly committed (as in, at least once was convicted of) some not-dissimilar acts. So I’m alert to some of the ways I’m both inclined to believe and disbelieve what he says, based on my own experiences and feelings. It’s so hard to sort these things out. If or when this goes to trial, I hope it would be televised, so we could see it and judge for ourselves, as with Depp v Heard (where I believe justice was finally served, in Depp’s favor.) Russell Brand is true to his name: he’s a firebrand. He’s created a presence that’s somewhat “bigger than life.” It’s going to make it difficult to sort the truth from the lies. But not impossible, as we saw with Depp. That said, as with Depp, the mainstream media is like a dog with a bone, and they may not give up their narrative even AFTER a verdict in a court of law that goes against their assertions. I truly hope Brand didn’t do what he’s accused of, and that the accusers are able to find peace and healing from whatever did actually happen.

Having RB de-platformed - unable to make money, or pay his staff. This is disturbing AF. 3) He's been going against the Narrative of the Status Quo and questioning "Authority" for a while now and "they" need to shut him up. 4) Cardi B admits to worse crimes, she still has a KZread channel. R Kelly has been CHARGED with SA crimes. He still has a youtube channel. There are many more criminals making money on youtube, yet RB gets cancelled due to ALLEGATIONS? Not Cool.

    Yeah that's all true. Whether these allegations have any merit to them at all, one thing I have no doubt of, Brand was targeted. They LOOKED for something to hang him with. This was absolutely a hit job either way. Whether because he's wildly successful and taking their place as a news source, or because what he's speaking about is enlightening people to the corruption among our federal government. (Probably both.) But he speaks the truth and backs it up with evidence. Which I massively respect. I don't even have to agree with him on every political topic. One thing I will say, I saw the alleged text from one of the "victims" and even in that text she's not claiming he raped her. She's alleging she had made it clear to him in their prior sexual encounter that she wanted him to wear a condom, and that this current time he didn't, agaisnt those wishes. If this is true I can imagine a few scenarios how this might have went down, but either way this clearly isn't the same as penetrating a woman's orifice against her will. (As the media is spinning it.) And that's not to say that if he chose not to wear a condom against her wishes that it's ok. Just that rape as we all recognize it, is something much more sinister and evil than what she's alleging. I don't know what sexual assault the other girls are alleging. But I do know that our current vernacular defines sexual assault to be something as small as putting your hand on a woman's lower back uninvited. So I'm taking that specific term with a grain of salt. Anyway, to your point Hollywood is full of creeps and people who've done heinous things. But the way it works now is that as long as you walk the politically correct line and repeat the accepted talking points, the media isn't going to look for ways to hurt you. That's a fact.

    Btw, a perfect example of the media choosing who they want to ruin? Howard Stern. Not only was he one of the grossest, most misogynistic, offensive famous person anyone knew of, EVERYONE KNEW. And no one gave 2 shits how demeaning he was to women. Inviting them on to strip to a bikini so he could point out there tiny (percieved) flaws. And I found out recently (and heard the audio clip) that the day after the Columbine massacre, he was talking about it, and mentioning all the hot HIGH SCHOOL girls running out of the school during the shooting. Then proceeded to actually say that the killers should have raped some of the girls before finishing their plan. He actually freaking said that. And he wasn't joking. And yet somehow this man is beloved by our media and gets a pass. I can't imagine that has anything at all to do with the fact that he repeatedly states the mainstream talking points, and unapologetically identifies as woke. Couldn't be related at all, or matter to our ever progressive media.🙄 It's such a joke. 😒

    I think that's exactly what it is. I think with one of the women (the one he apologized to), he was drunk and didn't read the queues right. He may not remember the other situations due to intoxication (I've personally been sexually assaulted by a friend who was black out and didn't remember it the next day) - it doesn't mean he is forgiven because he doesn't remember, we all have to take responsibility for choices made while intoxicated (again, I personally have had to also) but I think he doesn't remember most of the cases and that's why his body langauge seems so valid. he doesn't remember, so he doesn't have deception. It'll be interesting to see how this goes.

    What he doesn’t say is also important in gaining viewer interest. He doesn’t give any details about the allegations against him-he just gives hints. He doesn’t divulge anything about what the two letters actually say-no sentences, no verbiage, nothing. He doesn’t talk about what his witnesses might say. He doesn’t hint at who his witnesses are or how he knows them. And, most importantly, he doesn’t say which two media outlets are responsible. Now, some people probably know the answers to what this missing info in his statement is. But, by withholding it , he has created even more curiosity for viewers.

In this case, I think he used it to emphasize or draw heightened attention to what he was saying at that precise moment. For reference, check out any Black Pink music video & watch for when they're used & the rate at which they're used. The faster the music, the faster the frequency of jump cuts and vice versa.
