Russell Brand Dropped by Agent After Rape and Sexual Assault Accusations
Russell Brand Dropped by Agent After Rape and Sexual Assault Accusations
Women’s charity that the actor-comedian raised funds for also cuts ties: “We are deeply saddened and upset by the stories”
There was previously discussion about Russell Brand denying allegations that were to be shown in a TV documentary, and now things are developing.
You're viewing a single thread.
Well, on another site i saw a gif/video of Brand defending himself. To sum up, he said he has been very open about his past promiscuity many times in the past, all encounters were consensual, has witnesses contradicting the accusations, it's a very directed agenda by specific media towards discrediting him and to stay tuned for how it turns out.
Oh he denied the accusations? Well that changes everything! Yes, it must be the mean ol' mainstream medias fault then! Please.
Why not though? Media have been proven to create false stories before, so it's not like they wouldn't.
I know right? Just like they railroaded Masterson. He's 100% innocent. He told me so.
Masterson already had a trial and was proven guilty. Has that happened in Brand's case as well? If not, then please avoid treating it as such, for you would be incorrect.
I apologize if I gave you the impression I give a fuck about Brand, or your opinion on the matter. We're done here.
Then why even start? ...
Why do you care?
About Brand, i don't really care in particular. It's the mob lynching i'm wary of. Branding people as guilty before it is an established fact seems to be a gulty pleasure, pun intended, of even lemmy users. I'd like for people to stop doing that before it becomes the normal thing to do.
About this conversation, i only care because communication is the foundation of civilization. We have many languages, so it's a pretty big part of who we are, even though some of us have come to dread talking to one another.
I have no ill meanings in this whole thing, only that we should try to be better for our own state of wellbeing.
He didn't have witnesses contradicting the stories of him using force on the women.
How do you know? Was he already on trial and failed to provide such witnesses?
