Don't like the guy. But they cautioned him a year ago and ruined his career. 

 Time is long overdue for the CPS to put up or shut up. 

Enemy of the state, of course they have to deal with it, and he made himself an easy target! Cant say he is not guilty?

So all woman who are flattered by the attention of a Lothario are 'asking for it', have only themselves to blame and can't have been raped?

 

No, nobody should be raped.

But on the other side, women should think at least for a second of what they are doing.

I.e. is it advisable for a woman to walk at night in a dark street in a bad neighborhood with sexy clothes? No. But that doesn't mean every woman who does that should be raped.

And with this guy, as far as I know he doesn't make a secrete out of his sexual desires. Like: I want it all and now and just the way I want it. If you come to see me than that is what you should expect and maybe that is what you will get.

Summary: Think for at least a second of what you want to do before you do it.

He is going to populate in prison with that hair bun. 
 

After seeing that picture I call guilty. Of what exactly I am not sure, but lock him up anyway.

[JimTripper]

I always felt that there was something weird about this guy. Something about his mouth feels diseased when he talks. Just a vibe I got.

 

I even went so far as to block him on youtube because I felt there was something coming out of his mouth at me. I rarely block people so it was unusual to do it with him without even really listening to his views.

 

I wonder if any off the allegations involve his mouth in any way. Would not be surprised and it would validate my hunch.

why have these women decided to go to the police now, or last year?

 

He's asking too many questions.

[BangkokReady]

He has a history of being a bit of a philanderer.  Most of these pick-up types are abusive and manipulative.

I am not Victim shaming but should you wait nearly 20 years before complaining...... Or in the latest cases wait till the guy dies. 

 

This last few weeks Alex Salmon --The Harrods guy etc , all complaints after they have nailed the coffin lid down. 

 

You are victim shaming to tackle your first attempt at diversion. 'But' is always the giveaway word with racists, victim shamers, misogynists and all the rest.

 

You are obviously also happily ignorant of the effects this kind of experience has on girls and women. And men. Many of whom came out decades later in various churches. But they never had to face this kind of foul tasting and frankly quite tedious opprobrium.

 

There is enough information available should you want to enlighten yourself.

"The police inquiry began after four women came forward in September 2023, accusing Brand of rape, sexual assault, and emotional abuse. These claims relate to incidents that allegedly occurred between 2006 and 2013"

 

I personally do not like the guy, he is somewhat weird, but some folks are? i don't think he has any talent and is therefore overrated.

Having said that these allegations are 11 to 18 years old, if my math is correct and always begs the question why have these women decided to go to the police now, or last year?

The police have spent an awful lot of time and effort it seems, to build a case against him and now decided to forward it to the CPS.

If his name was Mohamed Al Fayed would the police have done the same?

the allegations came just around the time he was very outspoken on certain matters and gaining popularity. then boom, 'sex scandal'  what a coincidence.

Utter nonsense. "Gaining popularity"??  He's been famous for at least 20 years.

yes, of course, but he wan't on terrestrial TV much in recent times, i was referring to through his youtube channel and the topics he was covering, covid & vaccines, Ukraine, US politics. his YT channel grew by over 1 million subs in the short time since i'd been following him.n

do you think it right the UK government contact YT and get his channel demonetised before an charges are filed? why would the UK government even get involve in a matter like that in the first place. surely any action is take after a conviction

Eh?? Because a handful of "conspiracy theories" ended up being true that means you can dream up any old nonsense and it's ok?

What about the millions of conspiracy theories that ended up just being conspiracy theories?

like what? 

[bendejo]

He thinks he can talk his way out of anything, but IMO he comes off as as a dumb-azz rapper without a beat box. 

Seems to do well for him financially.

Your first sentence is correct: "Nobody should be raped".

 

There is no "... but".

Ok, change the "but" to "and" if that makes you feel better.

Or do you think there is no connection in peoples' behavior and possible consequences?

It's like walking on a zebra crossing in Thailand: In theory you should be able to just walk over it without looking. In real life that is a very bad idea.

Frank-Its the usually the way of shutting down a discussion, by branding whoever puts up a legitimate point by stating they  are "racists, victim shamers, misogynists and all the rest."  I dont know who all the rest are.

 

I can understand a child coming forward at a latter date when adult  to say they had been molested. But if you dont think that there shouldn't  be some skepticism when  400 adult women come forward to say they have been molested by the guy who died years ago-- then we can just differ, but I wont throw names around because you just dont follow my narrative.
