    Here's a summary of allegations against Brand. Having said that: Brand is innocent until proven guilty. Brand has admitted to a sex addiction and past promiscuity. And if the "dating the 16 year-old is true, legal or not, barf!

    https://www.vox.com/culture/2023/9/1...lt-allegations

    "Nadia, a woman who had been intimate with Brand, describes being raped by him in his home after rejecting his suggestions of a threesome. She was treated by a rape crisis center following the alleged attack but declined to file a police report at the time due to concerns about her reputation and the backlash she could face. Nadia provided reporters with screenshots of text messages written after the incident, during which she wrote “when a girl says no, it means no,” and Brand replied that he was “very sorry.” Investigators also reviewed her medical records from the crisis center and subsequent counseling sessions to corroborate her account.

    Alice was 16, the age of consent in the UK, when she dated Brand, who was 31 at the time, and says that he once forced his penis down her throat.

    Alice said that she dated Brand for three months, during which she alleges that he “groomed” her and told her how to frame the relationship to her parents. In one sexual encounter at the end of their relationship, Alice said Brand sexually assaulted her when he shoved his penis in her mouth, even as she was pushing him away. She says she had to punch him in the stomach to get him off of her.

    Phoebe had previously had a sexual relationship with Brand, and described a sexual assault that occurred after it had ended. She says that she was working on a project at Brand’s house, during which he removed his clothes, pinned her down on his bed, and put his hand down her pants as she screamed for him to get off of her. She also says she encountered people outside Brand’s home as she was leaving, including one person who later said he heard screaming and apologized for not helping.

    A fourth person in the article described allegations of being sexually assaulted, as well as physical and emotional abuse.

    In addition to the reporting on the allegations, the investigation included hundreds of interviews with people who knew Brand or had previously worked with him. This reporting also included descriptions from other women of abuses by Brand, including that he flashed his penis at a person on the BBC set and that he threatened and shouted at women who refused to have sex with him. Additionally, it stated that Brand’s approach toward women was an “open secret” among those who worked with him in the industry and that past colleagues at Channel 4 felt their role was to help Brand meet young women.

    Only one comedian, Daniel Sloss, spoke on the record about his knowledge of the allegations against Brand. He discussed hearing rumors about Brand and said female comedians warned each other about his predatory behavior."
    ================================================== =

    There will come a day where Donald Trump is gone, but the dishonor of those who carried his water will remain.

    I would love to start a joke account that would just give Hawkeye answers. Like:

    'We've all been lied to. I did my part to warn you. Buckle up!'
    'I am known for telling the truth'
    'The Regime demands consent'.
    'America is dead. This is going to hurt'

    I think I'd only have to program about ten phrases. He's like a chatty cathy doll. Just pull the string. And a sick pervert to boot. Good riddance.

    Also,

    "I'm highly educated"

    "The woke <blah blah blah>"
    "The revolution <blah blah blah>"

    Those last 2 things I think he brings up when anyone tries to contradict or bring to justice his con-men totalitarian nazi heros like tucker, trump, or ramaswamy.

    There are more women talking about Brand's rape and abuse. He has actually talked about how wild he was. I am sure he crossed some lines. But since he is a righty, it is OK. It is acceptable behavior if you spout right-wing propaganda for a living. Trump spearheaded that.

    Brand absolutely did groom and have sex with a 16 year old girl. He left a record of it.

    His defense? He says he was "promiscuous", which is more a confession of guilt than a defense. His defense is that technically in England it is not illegal for a 31 year old man to have sex with a 16 year old girl, just immoral.

    Brand also had trouble with being very aggressive with women. He might be able to say that was not rape, just extremely immoral and boorish behavior.
    Daniel Patrick Moynihan said it best, "You are entitled to your opinion. But you are not entitled to your own facts."
    Paul Begala, "Politics is show business for ugly people."
    Stephen Colbert, "Reality has a well known liberal bias."
