There was previously discussion about Russell Brand denying allegations that were to be shown in a TV documentary, and now things are developing.

    If all it took was an accusation he would have been removed from any and all positions of power a long long time ago, and at least a few of the women he raped would have been spared.

    Instead, and even with many accusations (and not only proof but essentially his own admission), assholes like you will still jump to the rapists defence and pretend as if the whole entire system isn’t rigged in their favour.

    You are an active part of the problem.

      I’m not on anybody’s side. If he’s guilty, there has to be proof. If the legal courts deem him guilty, then he should be punished to the full extent of the law. It shouldn’t be up to a kangaroo court, with a limited view of facts and primarily allegations, to make a judgement.

      Claiming to be promiscuous doesn’t make one a rapist. By that logic anybody going through their slutty years is a rapist. And if screenshots are proof to you, I don’t know under which rock you’ve been living, but you might have noticed that tech is able to fake voices and even video now.

      People like you are the actual problem - jumping to conclusions. “They said he’s guilty, so I say he’s guilty”. Save your grandeur and moralistic posturing.
