Changing the facts
That’s kinda my point.
He thinks he’s more considered than those pricks when in fact he’s just as bad.

What would Badgers do?
It’s been mostly the same so far with added clips of his stand up and interviews. “In Plain Sight” seems a fairly apt titleHaven't watched it but the Times article was damning.
Will be interesting to see what develops from this point, if anything. If he fucked off never to be heard of again that would at least be something.

Shrewd cunt realsied his whole schtick would get himself "cancelled" eventually even for what that was so sought the anti-cancel culture audience so when he did ( and now his alledged crimes) come out he has support and a narrative to hide behind.

They’ve edited a bit of his denial video in towards the end of the program. It makes it look even more damning

This is the thing really isn't it, he's not fucking cancelled, I've heard more about him in the last 2 days than I have in the last 5 years.
Now the ancient Egyptians knew how to cancel someone, they literally went out with chisels and carved peoples' names and images out of any reliefs.
Hopefully the passage of time will similarly erase the memory of some of these fuckwits, but for them to suggest they are being cancelled when they are all over the internet and telly is nonsense.

Just saying. We've been arguing about it for the past hour. She's not watching the programme. She says she's not particularly a Brand fan. He does seem to wield some charm over people. Like I gave him the benefit of the doubt for a bit, but even outside the new allegations, he's an obvious narcissist who has gotten off on humiliating people, no?

Oh, she's buying into the "he has enemies in the media". And she's not even a conspiraloon.

I remember very clearly at the time, his whole schtick was being sleazy and promiscuous. It seemed everyone thought it was hilarious. He was a modern Don Juan and women "loved him" for it. He was paid to act outrageously. The more people laughed the further he went. It seems absurd that he got away with that behaviour but back then it was "edgy" and it looked like the women were in on the joke too.
Well, the joke is on him now. He's not making money for them anymore. He's no longer protected and his past has come back to haunt him. I bet there'll be groveling apologies from him next. He will say he thought it was all consensual blah blah forgive my sins I'm a changed man etc.

The thing is, even in his new spiritual guise, it's all still very narcissistic (even if he has reigned in the sexual behaviour) and Messiah complex.

There is nothing wrong with being sexually active or "promiscuous" (I hate that word but using it as how it is often framed).
What is wrong is trying to describe what appear to be non-consensual situations as just him liking sex a bit too much, oh he's a sex addict, getting a little bit carried away sometimes, he's a bit of a shambles and a bit of a scoundrel like it's somehow OK and a bit of a joke, maybe it went too far sometimes - which seems to be what has been going on for years.
This is how these sorts of behaviours become normalised - and honestly entertainment media has been normalising this and covering up for it for decades now.

historical rape allegations are a fucking nightmare to prosecute
sadly only 5 percent of rapes that happen and are reported shortly after they happen even end up with prosecution
it a shitty consequence of the legal.system
has been keeping women quiet for a long time

To be expected from the kind of fucking shitehawks who pay to hear that dickhead talk, but still disgusting.

I think the most disturbing aspect of this whole thing (I watched Dispatches) was when the 16 year old girl attempted to blow the whistle and was basically told she was doing it to make money (when she contacted Russel's agent(?) iirc) - even though she never even mentioned any money, she was aggressively shut down, is it any wonder women don't come forward? She tried and she was made to feel like she was a liar and was wasting her time. She was made to feel powerless.
Well, them chickens have come home to roost now
The call with Saville was despicable too. Unfortunately it does feel like he can't be prosecuted, however, it being out there is better than nothing. It'll make power drunk men think twice in the future, hopefully.

jesus he did a movie called "get him to the Greek" about being a sex pest with Johan hill, looks like he was just being himself during filming
