    "I'm not debating your existence, Just how you are allowed to exist in society"

    Such conversations often take place without the people actually involved being a part of the conversation

    Such conversations often have input from people not very well versed on the subject of trans issues.

    Such conversations rarely took place until right-wing platforms made it their whole personality to come after us.

    Such conversations often hyper focus on trans women when trans men and non-binary folk are part of the conversation too.

    It’s not really about you. It’s about the biological women who don’t want to compete with you in sports, and the people who want to use your biological pronouns rather than your preferred ones. It’s about the parents who don’t want to teach their children about transgenderism.

    People are allowed to refer to anything however they want. What do you think this is, China?

    People’s entire careers have been destroyed because of using original pronouns.

    It's cute how he cloaks himself in the anti-corpo narrative.

    Yes, corporations are scummy. But that does not in any way account for Russell Brand's sexual scumminess.

    See, in this case the BBC actually cares more about women than Russell Brand did when he worked for them.

    There is nothing unique about mainstream corps pushing narratives. Russell Brand and his ilk also push narratives, and often more dangerous and untruthful ones.

    Don’t you find it odd that when he was working in mainstream media, nobody criticised him, even though it was the perfect time to release this information. But as soon as he starts attacking the mainstream media, this documentary comes out. It’s about the timing. The mainstream media have a very strong motive for attacking him now. Compare this to the bbc reporter who was abusing children. Where are all the attacks on him?

    No.

    The issue is that Brand's YT content has nothing to do with sexual assault. What he did 10 years ago is not relevant to his YT channel today.

    Of course it is. His anti mainstream media content is why they launched a massive investigation into his sex life to find any bad behaviour. How do you think they knew about these women? These women didn’t come to channel 4. Channel 4 went in search of them.

    The real cause of this war was that Ukraine started allying itself with the West, slowly infected with Western culture, and there was no way Putin was going to sit by and let that happen. Putin believes Ukraine belongs to the East. And he does not respect Ukraine's decision to side with the West culturally. So in a sense it's a literal culture war.

    Or rather, Ukraine was growing into Orange, and Putin wanted to keep it Blue. Surely that’s a better way of seeing it?
