And his right-wing transformation is now complete.
I’m not entirely sure it wasn’t the other way around.
He probably knew some charges were coming years ago, and started adapting his output accordingly.
Oh for sure. He’s been soft-pedaling his right-wing transformation ever since the initial allegations went public years ago. The hard turn recently is probably exactly as you say, he knew charges were coming.
the suddenly “baptism” was obvious, because he mustve knew charges were going to be brought against him eventually
I don’t think he thinks the way you and I do. I don’t think it was that calculated.
Well he also has people like managers, publicists and agents who will think this way.
It doesn’t take much calculating at all. It’s just easy to convince right-wing audiences that sexual misconduct allegations are all a conspiracy by the Deep StateTM to silence them. It’s a pretty basic grift.
So it goes something like this:
- Man rapes
- Man gets away with it for a while
- Man gets charged for it
- Man joins the far-right
It’s always the ones you most expect.
So Jared Leto.
No way, there’s absolutely nothing fishy going on with Leto. It’s a totally normal, completely above board, women only island cult.
what the fuck
This is sarcasm… Or satire - not sure of the differences
oh no, the cult is actually real. this is where my surprise comes from.
So daily news?
Fun fact Jared Leto has been to my flat before (i didnt live there yet), took a bite out of an apple belonging to my roommate and left it there. He also signed the kitchen table.
I could easily prove this btw because there is video evidence, but doing so would dox my address so im not going to.
…and some say, to this day, the apple is still there.
She was a super big fangirl of his, so i dont really wanna know what she did with that apple.
you can’t share a photo of the signed kitchen table?
Those lines are also from him and she covered the whole table in clear tape so it wouldnt be washed off. And yeah that triangle thing next to the “2018” is his entire signature apparently.
yeah I looked it up and it seems like it is… except despite the simplicity he seems to sign it wildly differently each time lol.
Ah yes, Martian script.
Yeah, i guess he only had 30 seconds before he had to leave.
But he was so pretty in
fight club!*was beautiful.
Noel Fielding?
What makes you think of him?
Like Brand has been a blatant huge hypocrite for years (Talking about injustice of poor people whilst marrying in to a massively rich family, for example.).
He hung around with Brand a lot.
Has a similar creepy vibe, photograped in clubs with women.
He created old gregg
I would add that I have absolutely no evidence against Noel. I’m just saying I wouldn’t be surprised.
Also David Walliams seems a bit rapey.
Again. No evidence. I just wouldn’t be surprised.
I get you.
It’s like I don’t like Leigh Francis, and expect some controversy with him. Not in this league, I just think he’s a bit of dick. Doing gambling adverts doesn’t help.
He’s definitely rude and crude, but I don’t think he loves himself enough to expect women to sleep with him.
I agree with you. In his case I wouldn’t be surprised if he goes down for something else illegal (fraud, embezzlement, theft etc.). Again, not saying he has done anything.
Rapist Russell Brand charged with Attempted Comedy
The moment someone starts going all “anti-woke” you know they’ve got something to hide and they are trying to get acquainted with the pardon-dealing industry.
Yeah. Forcing himself on women was entirely consistent with his public persona, but shifting hard right just to seek cover makes it so much scummier.
Nah. It was the moment he turned to Jesus and got baptised I realised he was guilty.
The right wing shift was for the money.
The moment someone “gets jesus” it’s time to alert the authorities.
So he’s also into kids?
Let’s not pedo-smear buddy, it’s not a can of worms YOU want to open. You owe it to law & order & justice to behave like a law-abiding citizen & follow the Rule-Of-Law
And check their hard drives.
Pardon dealing industry? In the UK?
I’m pretty sure only 4 pardons have been given in the last 25 years. 1 was posthumous (Turing) and the other 3 were given to convicts who saved people’s lives while incarcerated.
I don’t think being anti-woke is going to help anyone get a pardon in the UK.
I do think it’s a grift, just not convinced it’s a grift for a Royal Prerogative of Mercy.
I don’t mean in the UK. He probably has done some of that in the US too.
He could flee and seek political asylum or something. The US has extradition treaties with the UK since 2003, but they are pretty much ignoring all laws and treaties anyway.
I need to just stick off other social media, nice that this is the consensus here
It’s always the people who you expect the most.
It’s always the ones you most suspect.
He’ll be on Joe Rogan in about a month
Freudian slip, but true nonetheless
He’s been a regular on Bro Brogan for years. That’s where his shift to the right-wing began a few years ago, shortly after his sex pest behavior became public knowledge.
After watching Kathy Perry’s documentary and what he did to her, I fucking hate this asshole.
I never watched that, what did he do?
He divorced her over text, minutes before she was about to get on stage on her premiere tour. Then ghosted her after.
Holy FUCK. You know back when he was pretending to be a queer leftist, he had me genuinely fooled. He’s a truly scary fucker.
he would definitely be that creep to get closer to women.
God that’s awful. And calculatingly cruel.
It’s like seeing two turds collide
Huh, women intuition is never wrong
Until it is
What the fuck?
Kathy Perry
lul
“names may have been changed to protect people’s privacy”
This explains his sudden turn to Christianity last year. He’s going to try the “God forgave me” defense.
Actually it was his turn to the right wing grifting. Christianity was just icing on the cake to make evangelicals acceptable to him
it was pretty obvious when he started to trying to hide behind the pro-rape party of conservatives.
More like “I can’t be guilty of such a crime. I’m saved!”
In an article from 2 years ago LMAO
Haha my thoughts exactly
Man that’s fucking great.
LOL, my thoughts exactly.
Okay but seriously… this actually has come up before though right? I distinctly remember there being major allegations against him years ago
Check the date on that article, the joke is more layered than you thought.
The only guy guy in the world who was less annoying when he was on crack
You’re kiddin’! HIM? …Nahhh. He’s always seemed like a super stable, reliable guy. You just never know about some people, you know?
It’s always the ones you mostly suspect…
Wait… Is racism back on the table guys??
That irish fucker with the marshmallows is gonna get it
Don’t worry, he can buy a Trump Gold Card, become a U.S. citizen, and Trump will offer him the position of Ambassador-at-Large for Global Women’s Issues.
This is depressingly spot-on.
“Rapist Russell Brand charged with attempted comedy”
Well, I’ve seen this coming for a while now, but I must admit, I actually liked him once upon a time. His comedy specials weren’t just funny, they made you think about the abstract ideas of religion and consciousness. He was like a handsome rockstar comedian, the sort of person I wish I could be. Smart, sexy, cool, interesting. Hell, when I got sober from alcohol, reading his book that re-imagined the twelve steps into something less religious actually helped.
But then I heard the rumors, and it kind of fit with the image he gave himself. And then he made that abrupt turn into right-wing conspiracy and that all but confirmed it. To be honest I thought he’d already been charged with something and had just celebrity-ed his way out of it. Sucks, man.
I loved Dennis Miller back in the '80s, before he made his heel turn into a right-wing douche. In retrospect, I realize I actually just liked the SNL writers coupled with his snarky delivery.
Dennis Miller was a great writer himself, and wrote all of the Weekend Update stuff that he did, and a bunch of sketches. It’s ok to say he was once great at what he did, because he was. But I would recommend going back and watching Dennis Miller Live on HBO. I went back and re-watched it during the pandemic, and it’s pure Libertarian garbage wrapped up in snarky wit and big words. So he’s always been kind of a right-leaning douche, but 9/11 broke his brain and he dropped all the Libertarian pretense.
Hey, help is help, don’t let his failings mean that your success is somehow tarnished. I get the sentiment as well. He was a little over the top for my taste but the reboot of Arthus he did still ranks pretty high on my list.
