Very good to see a high profile person such as Russell Brand spreading the news and actually doing something for society. He may rub some people the wrong way, but his message is spot on. People need to take a stand, and things need to change, because our governments (and media) are absolutely in need of kicking out on their arses. I've been lurking at Videosift for bloody donkey's years, and it takes a lot to bother me enough to actually create an account for anything. So well done, RB.

God help us all if Russel Brand is the voice of reasonable dissent. I agree with him and even I can't listen to his rambling nonsense.

R.B. is anything BUT nonsensical. Did you even watch ?
He's speaking far more reason than privileged shit bags like David Cameron.

I tried, I really did, but I only got a minute or two into before I just wanted to punch him in the face.

I'll try again.....

nope, can't do it. He's just so fucking self-satisfied.

That doesn't mean I agree with David Cameron either (terrible excuse for a human that he is), simply that I wish we had someone better than Brand.

I've said before that he can be eloquent and impassioned when he's talking about something he has experience with, but he's just mugging it up here and I have no interest in it.

Thanks for the link... seen it before, but good nevertheless.
In the media lock down we have right now it takes someone like R.B. to make the mental leaps and join the dots.
If there is better sociopolitical commentary out there about current events I am all ears (links please).

If Brand was more 'together' he'd be towing the corporate news line and sucking that teat or joining the rest of the celebrity morons in drowning us in bullshit.
btw. this guy was just (days ago) character assassinated on Fox news, so he's making waves and also under fire.
Massive props for what he's doing and for keeping it 'real' ie. fuck bland talking heads and regurgitated government/corporate propaganda.

case in point, The Independent and Huffington Post sensationally misrepresent R.B.'s views.

Moving this video to billpayer's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 2 days.
