Who can ask for a better system? If you're too poor you're jealous if too rich a hypocrite..
I don't feel he wants to destroy anything, revolutionise yes, which in politics speak is akin to reform and they are not adverse to that.

That's a rather cryptic message.

He's not doing a very good job then seeing as we only ever see him on youtube now and most people hate him :/
Hopefully by the next trews we'll get what people think of the subject and not just Russel ![]()

Define just what you mean by 'Subject' so we can all discuss it, because Brand's pathetic, random, verbal diarrhoea gives us no clues.

I really like Russel Brand when he's doing his general celebrity media stuff but I've tried watching his trews videos and other political things and I can't follow a word of what he's saying.

![]() Brand claiming that 'someone' is saying 'something' solely to 'JUSTIFY' his false 'CRUSADE' does not mean that his claim is true, because it isn't. IT IS A LIE..... IT IS A FALSE LIE. |

'Consider C4 reporter Paraic O’Brien turning up to a Brand-supported, Downing Street-set protest objecting to a group of single mums being turfed out of their homes by the UK’s richest MP and asking Brand, “What kind of rent are you paying?”.
It’s a bit like a journalist today hearing Martin Luther King’s ‘I Have a Dream’ speech and claiming King is racist for not making room in his dream for Native American kids, or questioning peace icon Mahatma Gandhi’s fasting credentials because he’d conveniently spent most of his life eating food. That is to say, who these men are and who they have been is – in this context – totally besides the point. I’m not comparing Russell Brand to Mohandas Gandhi or Dr King, but I am saying you should be focusing not on the man, but on what the man is saying – what he’s actually saying, not what the media is telling you he’s saying – as should surely always be the case.'

I personally think he's done more to highlight social and political issues and made people question just what we're spoonfed by the media, I'm sure other younger inquiring minds will too and that can only be a good thing. Will you be going to see 'The emperors new clothes' by any chance?

I saw a short clip of him a while ago and actually started to warm to him because he seemed sincere in what he was saying, but this crap has just put me right back to my original appraisal of him that he is an insignificant, egotistical prat who spouts shallow bollox and does not make sense. "In a way Armageddon is coming ... For the individual" -- WTF does that mean? It's just meaningless twaddle. He neither knows The Bible, nor understands the ramifications of total nuclear war for the idiot to believe that 'Armageddon' - in either context - will be an 'individual' experience. I noticed as well that the only message Brand did not read out in its entirety was the pro UKIP one from Mikeys4U who reasoned with him to "Try looking at the policies and not the people behind them" which he neither read nor dealt with but flashed past at the speed of sound while the message image - unlike the others - disappeared just as quickly. Instead of addressing the points Mikeys4U made, Brand produces more rhetoric, like a rabbit from a magicians hat, and drones about "Blaming vulnerable people for problems created by powerful people" which is yet more meaningless 'New World Order' twaddle, because no one is blaming 'vulnerable people' for the very evident, irrefutable corruption and Machiavellian crimes of the 'powers that be'. However, without actually verbalising that he means 'UKIP blaming immigration' Brand links in to a clip of the now hackneyed 'Cassetteboy's 'Emperor's New Clothes Rap'. But I challenge anyone, anywhere, to PROVE to me; that any UKIP spokesperson has ever blamed ALL this country's problems on immigration. Our 'Open Door' Immigration policy is creating many new problems (some of which have yet to fully materialise) and increasing many of our existing ones, but it is not THE cause of all our problems and NO UKIP politician or spokesperson has ever claimed otherwise. I have written a new version of Cassetteboy's rap especially for Brand. Altogether now, come on, sing along: Kirkboy's - 'The Nonentity's New Career Choice Crap' Want a massive platform? Get a congregation. Wanna be adored? Bull**** a gullible Nation. Wanna stay employed? Cause consternation. Wanna obscure your ignorance? Use oral defecation. Wanna fecking emigrate Brand? Kirk'll drive you to the station. When it comes to our Society and Democracy, Brand has the same ethos as the evil lunatic terrorists who destroyed the irreplaceable ancient artefacts at Mosul and decimated the ancient Assyrian archaeological site of Nimrud in Iraq - "tear it down because it does not fit in with our ideologies" And when it comes to some of the immigrants whose cause he so fervently champions, Brand is just as infuriatingly hypocritical; Scream and Rail against our system whilst enjoying its benefits, and the Democratic Freedom it affords to scream and rail in the first place. All in all - a First Class Prick so deserving of a First Class One Way Ticket To Palookaville - or Syria or fecking anywhere but the UK which he seems to detest so much: What a world, (what a world) what a place, (what a place) Ain't you glad you're a member of the human race. Now False Prophet Brand came back from the USA To sing at the Albert Hall, He sang his songs of protest And fairer shares for all. He sang how the poor were much too poor And the rich too rich by far, Then he drove back to his penthouse In his brand new Rolls Royce car. |

'Startjoin was co-founded by the maverick financial commentator Max Keiser famous for his tirades against the big banks and incumbent financial industry. Quite what kind of revolution people will be funding if they begin shelling out their Startcoin remains something of a mystery. Many of those who have managed to work their way through Brand's foray into political philosophy - Revolution - are left wondering exactly what a world after the glorious upheaval would look like. There may be some clues in Brand's latest film The Emperor's New Clothes. The advert for the documentary, which was made in collaboration with Michael Winterbottom, features Brand going from banks' headquarters to rich people's houses to attempt to understand the global financial system.' http://www.cityam.com/213682/russell...bal-revolution
