I've been seeing the fake Halloween tombstones in yards near my house with the epitaph, "Did his own research "

😆😆😆😆👍

Imagine if he said it like "spend a few million of your own dollars on double-blind studies with 1000+ participants" instead. All this 'research' done by vaccine-skeptics is googling & reading facebook/reddit posts. When I was in school, they did NOT accept any internet-based sources for the simple reason that anyone can post a lie on the internet and it will remain as long as it doesn't defame someone.

Very well said 👍

If you have no clue how to validate "research" from any source, what use is that? Whole courses teach one how to tell what is valid and what isn't. Your ordinary person has no idea. That's why we have experts--I have no problem with them.

Not sure how that's a "grift", sounds like someone who prefaces his opinions with the disclaimer of not being an expert. Which seems honest & opposit of a grift, term thrown so losely on the left these days it seems..

@@mmafyasco It's his grift to pull in more followers. Nobody doesn't have an opinion anyway. He's lying.

Tucker Carlson plays the same game

@@eddy71454 again how is that a grift? Serious question. this is coming from someone who voted for Joe Biden, I'm obviously skeptical of big Pharma, but believe in science so I have obviously received my two Covid shots. Not sure why some of his questions seem to be a grift to you when I have some of the same questions, I feel if I made KZfaq videos I would be accused of the same..

@@mmafyasco Your point is clear. I agree! edit: after watching the video i am definitely getting grifty vibes from Russel

Well, you remind me of people that base their opinions on their own subjective appreciation rather than actual facts and you know, reading about a subject. You people are so ignorant that think that you don't need to listen and pay attention to others views, opinions and facts. You just take the opinion of the media you trust as absolute truth, and inform yourself of the other sides stance from the very media that stands against them, lol. People can be so dumb, yeah, even 75 year old people. The fact that you are older does not always equate to being wiser, smarter or have more truth, most of the times just perpetuates biases, bad habits, wrong world views and gives them a sense of righteousness.

Indeed. He only impresses those who have.no idea what's gone before. Most of his starry-eyed followers appear to be either (a) decidedly uncritical (b) not very well read (C) fairly young (d) easily impressed.....or all of the above. Problem is that, as with most of these new age prophets over the years , characters like Brand complain, endlessly, about "the system" .But, as Russell has shown on numerous occasions, when they have to provide specifics in regard an alternative, they suddenly go silent. Critical thinking amongst viewers serms to have declined in direct proportion to the rise of social media

You must remember Barry Goldwater-Rush Limbaugh's rise very clearly. That's what Russell finds himself in

@@temsedgwick9494I think your right. He is giving them a new platform to toss the lies out to. To a new audience that wouldn’t have heard it otherwise. He’s opening the barn door, and then acting surprised when the horse got away. I am sure he is making money doing this. He isn’t even American and he is stirring the pot of the zealots.

Needing vaccinations to travel is nothing new it isn’t a new conspiracy a Country can deny you entry, and make you jump through many hoops , not just vaccinations. England requires you to produce bank records to prove you have $10,000 in the bank , a round-trip ticket and proof of accommodations while you’re applying for a visa to visit. Americans don’t need that to go to England, but if you were from India Bangladesh, many Middle Eastern countries, they have those kinds of rules for you. What he is complaining about is trivial because customs can decide anything they want or you could just not go there.

Find your echo chamber on social media

You do realise that your comment is suggesting that someone encouraging self education is somehow a wrong un?? I really hope your problem is actually that you think people with differing views to yourself are simply not intelligent enough to understand competing information...because the alternative, that self education is merely an exercise in confirmation bias has incredibly negative connotations, I can think of many powerful forces who would love nothing more than self education being frowned upon, none of them benign, are u really wanting to align yourself with them...either way you are talking absolute nonsense

I think it is more like the modern version of "Take my word for it." No one who says it is really expecting any kind of research to happen, and would not accept it anyway if you showed them the results of your research.

@1Step_TOOfar however if you are cognitively weak you will connect 2+2 and get paranoia.

I think doing your own research is important but I sort of agree with skaffertape. It's about what your research tells you and how you act on the research. If you think the vaccines are worthwhile and your research tells you otherwise, what will you do? Will you change your position? If you do research within your own echo chamber you will get the results you want to get...."find stuff you want to hear".

Totally agree with your comment.

He was never funny

Brand's "I have no opinion" mantra is just another grift. At least as a junkie the harm he caused was limited to those unfortunate enough to be in his personal orbit. The public harm he causes now is exponentially worse. No matter how much Brand denies and lies about what he is doing he is promoting an irrational fear of vaccines that save lives. Anyone with a brain can see that Brand was, is, and probably always will be a toxic, narcissistic, addict.

Faulty analogy, since not being vaccinated with the Covid vaccine isn't the same thing as actively being infected and having close contact with others.

@@Opelteanit not a false analogy at l...unless unvaxxed keep themselves completely separate from the rest of the population...especially since they often don't know if they are infected or not. We older ones deeply resent the callousness and utter self-centeredness of the unvaccinated

The experts being big pharma who owns the WHO and FDA and the government picked scientists - defs not anything to question here. Just going to trust it blindly I rekon. Not like these people would be sick enough to put a monopoly on insulin or literally the whole American healthcare system. And it's not like this is the most profitable drug in history by a fucking massive margin or anything....

"Defs not anything to question here" -- And that, in a nutshell, is everything wrong with conspiracy mindsets. It is the exact opposite of Occam's Razor. You use the fact that in reality we cannot know most things 100%, to perform a logically fallacious creep towards a 50/50 "it's just as unlikely as it is likely", and worse, hopping from that to "it's definitely got to be a lie!" You don't apply the same standards to "doing your own research". You'll gaslight the scientific consensus with thin "but what if, maybe, they're paid off by the industry" just-asking-questions, but you'll respond with an article from OANN or some other self-proclaimed "independent" media without also questioning their motives, biases or potential for human error. The scientific consensus is ultimately superior precisely because the very same criteria for authoring misinformation are mitigated compared to any other way. It is the scientific method.

@@adr1annn129 "The experts being big pharma who owns the WHO and FDA and the government picked scientists - defs not anything to question here."

These other nations don't have their equivalent of the FDA? Are you saying that ALL world governments and national health agencies across the globe are in it? Different creeds, different ethnicities, different cultures, different ideologies managed to put their differences aside for this project?

His instinct is to stand up for persecuted minorities and his sense is that people who have chosen not to vaccinate are being persecuted. But he is wrong, and this is why. I do not see any issue in short term restrictions on the unvaccinated to limit the stresses on health systems. Many people rely on the health services for illnesses and injuries unrelated to Covid and they may suffer and die if health services are disproportionately focussed on caring for unvaccinated people with Covid at this time.

Anti vaxxers need to realise that the basic principle components (if that's the right word to use) of vaccines have been used for decades successfully. It's not as if the Covid jab is the first vaccine that's ever been developed and nobody knows how to go about it.

Exactly. People don’t know how lucky they are. We have great modern technology and we get the shot for free. People in disadvantaged countries don’t have access to these vaccines yet. So many entitled westerners.

...and it helps thy neighbor which is almost as important if not more...

My father's brother died at age 12 of Diptheria, before there was a vaccine. Families were not allowed onto the Diptheria ward. Children went in and close to 100% never came out. An uncle on my mother's side had polio,because there had been no vaccine for it, and he spent a lot of his life in an iron lung. We visited him in hospital once. I have never seen anything so horrifying. Vaccines are so successful that these ( ironically vaccinated for everything else) anti vaxxer people don't understand how protected they are because of them. Immunology has, in effect, become a victim of its own success.

I only occasionally catch his clips now but he must have moved an unbelievable amount to be classed as right wing...u do realise that covid is not a right v left thing...distrusting politicians of all stripes is not right v left, despite what the lad on here seems to think..if u wanted to know his t true allegiance u would ask his opinions on child poverty...unemployment...welfare...freedom of religion and foreign policy, I would be astounded if u still thought he was on the right, u people are either being disingenuous, scolding a former good boy for forming an original idea or you are genuinely politically clueless...oh and the amount of addict shaming on this thread is off the charts, it is genuinely difficult to tell whether this is a left leaning channel, a real nasty edge

​@@tomwilko7841 Left and Right can be more accurately described as Selfless vs Selfish, in that every dividing line, the left want the selfless acts, where as the Right want the selfish acts. How we respond to COVID is very much a Left vs Right issue. For example, the benefit of masks are to protect others around you. Wearing them is therefore the selfless act (left) and the people who tend to speak out about wearing them tend to be thinking of their self often leaning on personal freedom. And it's not addict shaming to point out that a person with well documented addiction problems put himself in a dangerous position because right wing echo chambers are the most engaging... and social media engagement triggers dopamine.

You do not like him for being against Pharma and Bill Gates' idea of the world ?.. but still you know what he has done and said about Farage the Tories and fascism in general ... he has not changed ,it is not about losing touch . The mass media has convinced the majority that anti vaxxers are rightwing. You have been tricked and fooled by them. Start watching Russell Brand properly ..Under the skin is a fabulous podcast and watch his conversation with Adam Curtis about political hypnosis 👍

Sounds like something a close-minded, naive, brainwashed goober would say. Pakman is the grifter; repeating someone else's words with a sarcastic tone -with no follow-up isn't clever or helpful. None of you morons actually use any of Brand's examples or points...you just tar him with the brush you should be using on Pakman. Whatever.

@@jeremybartlett1706 Somebody is upset. Russel is a dumb persons smart guy. He issues big words and just keeps rambling about religion and science and doesn’t understand most of it. He is very egotistical, used to be an addict of drugs and sex. I mean if you want to listen to a comedian for life advice, I’d go with bill burr is down to earth. Don’t have a clue how you think DP is a grifter. Wow he has adds and comments on other peoples work. Well that’s KZfaq commentary.

@@justinmiller2655 So...you're upset? Good. You should be; you're not very smart if you side with Pakman who didn't argue any of Brand's points...he just repeated his words in a sarcastic tone. All Pakman is, is biased. Bias isn't a guarentee of correctness or intelligence. Brand is at breast an advocate of open-mindedness/thinking for ourselves. You brainwashed drongos aren't worth bothering with to argue...which is one thing Russell said...if we are all so stupid on two opposing sides of an issue and calling the others stupid...what's the point of even saving a society like that? We may as well all just get fucked. Neither of us give a shit about the other because you think your corrupt govt is suddenly on your side and want the best for you...but are blind to an alterior motive and the implications of that and you think anyone opposing that position are nuts because we don't agree with you, that a conspiratorial agenda is crazy-talk, I guess from the outside it would look like sheep calling other sheep 'sheep'...we are all looking like the same people, but we have been diving...think about it objectively...how do you conquer the masses? Divide and conquer...that alone should give you a clue, there's something bigger going on here...put it this way, one day when we are deciding whether a one world govt with a one world currency actually makes sense...and a mark or implanted chip is actually a GOOD idea...you can think back to this exchange and think...oh yeah...there really WAS something going on back then that I was too blind to see, because I was too busy sticking up for DAVID PAKMAN...who wanted everyone to take the vaccine and trust their govt. Anyway, whatever. Enjoy.

@Jeremy Bartlett we get it, you like conspiracy theories. Pakman did argue, successfully, Russell’s point: that he’s not unbiased. When you only conveniently “ask questions” about one side, that’s called bias.

@@VeritableSmorgasbord 'We' get it...you and your sheep. All Pakman did was repeat Russell with a sarcastic tone, so whatever, be lazy and stupid and listen to your leader. "We love the leader. The leader is good, the leader is great, we surrender our will -as of this date". At least Brand is an advocate for free thinking, all you jokers and Pakman do is advocate for doing what your govt deems good for you and to shoot down anyone who thinks for themself. The US citizen is the most lied-to citizen in the world and you're so head-up-your-ass brainwashed, you'll defend your rights to be gullible and naive and ignorant to the death. Ok well, whatever. You're allergic to free thinking and the truth. You've made Pakman your golden calf and so... do.

Yup. This.

I think you nailed it.

Beautifully put.

ROFLOL!!!! As my grandma always said while seeing the neighbor try to get his mower going by kicking it..... Well bless his heart.

Got him in one Sue. Well put.

Actually its pretty common that people who are recovered from drug adicction replace their adiccion with this kind of spiritual, new age, conspiratorial thinking adicction, and they dont even know they have that adicction, I speak from a place of knowledge because I also went trough that myself, I even let my hair and beard grow like Russell to look like Jesus, but a few years ago I realized it and changed my adicction for another one more healthy and a more realistic point of view, but it wasnt easy, I faced a depression because of realizing that, but it was necesary.

@@javoferoz4819 Dude I’m being a dick right now but *addiction*. Usually misspelling is a common error when typing too fast but you typed it out 3x the wrong way which indicates to me either it’s under autocorrect on your device or you think that’s how it’s spelled. In either case I feel i should point it out to you so you can avoid any unnecessary embarrassment further down the line.

If this is the first time you’re seeing him in a long while it might make sense to give one of his entire segments a fair listen as opposed to a choppily edited, non contextual, non-sequential series of clips designed to paint him as a vacuous moron. Your conclusion may be the same but it’s worth the ten or so minutes just to validate where you stand.

@@ocan1033 I’ve done it, it’s a dumpster fire sounding board. He tells his base nothing relevant while insisting he doesn’t tell them what to think. It’s exhausting and all those views he gets are making him a lot of money. For a guy who says you can’t trust the main stream media due to corporate overlords throwing money around, it’s quite the hypocrisy when he’s essentially doing what he’s warning against. The fact that his audience either doesn’t realize this or goes along regardless shows how “free thinking” they really are

@@HowdyDuty4 Interesting take. Did you listen to him five years back as well? And who do you reckon his 'base' is? Have they changed? Did he just sell out to another group of idiots to stay relevant? Who do you figure his corporate overlords are .. who does he answer to? Does he acknowledge monetization as part of his current scheme? Is he interested in opposing views? What are his key interests .. would you say he's a demagogue or more interested in large power structures and how people come to think as they do? He's exhausting, no doubt. Not sure I'd put him as high on the hypocrisy or cynicism hierarchy as you do. Nor can I casually label an audience of 5M all delusional. I have a friend who hated him back in his old incarnation and finds him equally repelling now, even though he agrees with some of his material. Everything seems like team sports these days. Pick an opposing view and shit on those holding it. Not a great formula for harmony or success.

Agreed. He needs to be permanently silenced. And you can take that any way you want.

Mollllly cules! He makes me anti-british & I know that is wrong!!

Or because his content would be censored and banned if he did give his actual opinion.

@@ehr470 Good.

Well said. It’s calculated to shield himself from the consequences of doing what he _knows_ is wrong, while pretending he’s guiltless. What a grotesque, cold, money-grubbing, blithely selfish wretch, yet dressed up in soft warm fuzzy clothing he reveals himself to be.

@Nick Broomhall - Precisely. He loves himself enough to not care who he hurts, so long as he thinks nothing sticks to him. And how many mirrors do you suppose are in this guy’s house(s)? I’m going to guess at least one per room.

Oh no….and Tim. Go back to 2010 when I met him, after requesting Kevin Breslin sent him and 5 other “citizen journalists” to our city, to premiere “#WhileWeWatch,” Occupy Wallstreet. Tim’s best work 2010-2011 was when he didn’t say a word. Tim had to brand himself, the money game. Prolly still evolving.

Flower child wannabe. Yes, the exact vibe I was getting at times listening to him here. And isn't he kinda grown for that? Like, shouldn't he have gone through that phase two, almost three decades ago?

Spot on!

Russel: Big pharma's bad and shouldn't be trusted You: LEFT WINGER NOW RIGHT WING CONSPIRACY THEORIST LOST HIS MIND

Nah, Brand missed the 60's, if he's trying to be a flower child he needs some lessons. He's getting it wrong, it wasn't all about $$ ME $$. It was about us and life, the planet and living in peace. ✌️

So no one is aloud to do alternative research… just because of a subject YOU disagree with? And now any alternative news is ill news because of one particular belief group? Please do one, there are tons of alternative news that dont lie because they are not fulfilling an agenda of some pay master… most of human history and knowledge is based on objective reality not the narrative. I dont believe in flat earth but i will entertain the thought and give them there free right to do so. If you disagree with something provide solid factual evidence from a variety of sources to conclude what might being hidden from you. Good luck.

@@troyburgeon518 Nowhere did I say anyone should be stopped from saying anything, including "the earth is flat" and "flat earthers are idiots". The flat earthers, Q, anti-vaxxers, etc make money from their advocacy. You think the round earth scientists are in the pay of some mysterious paymaster while the flat earthers are noble truth tellers, doing it for no money? Big FE names have monetized youtube, books, merch, etc. Mark Sargeant for instance. I have investigated flat earth, assumed it true, and looked at what implications would follow. North star/latitude/sextant, gyrocompass, gps, no FE map, sunset/sunrise, ham radio moonbounce, navigation, a hundred things that make perfect sense on round earth and no sense on flat earth. Do you think we should continue to be skeptical about round earth? Could the earth be flat? Q has made many predictions. Q adherents argue with each other and ask why none came true. Do you think we should consider the possibility that Tom Hanks traffics babies in tunnels with Hillary Clinton? I have watched their videos, they are full of preposterous claims and they have no proof. I have taken the vaccine, all my family, friends co-workers. None of us have died or become magnetized or anyhting, and no one I know has gotten covid. I know people in Kansas and Missouri who are anti-vax and all of them have had it, one is a long hauler who may never draw a full comfortable breath or be able to do physical exertion. The medical industry has lied, mostly about new medicines they want to sell on safety and efficacy. But if I get a health problem, I am going to a hospital and not a faith healer because most of the time they are doing the best they can honestly. Their imperfection is not proof that snake oil is true. What I am saying is there are ways (rational analysis, facts and logic) to tell what is true, this is a skill. One must trust others, we can't all figure everything out personally. I am skeptical of everything, but mostly the mainstream is right about the shape of the earth, medicine, etc. One indicator of truth is how much conspiracy is necessary for your narrative. Q, anti-vax, and flat earth all require multiple huge conspiracies. Q requires that conservative republicans endorsed or appointed by Trump that became lying conspirators in at least 4 states. Another indicator is consistency with known facts. Another is consistency with itself, do all the advocates tell the same story. Flat earth is all over the place, each FE has their own version. RE has one story that all REs tell and checks out with physical realities. The mainstream is imperfect, but the alternative stuff has always been preposterous when carefully checked out in detail. I will continue to check out all possibilities, I won't rule out that some alternative web site could reveal a mainstream conspiracy, but so far, haven't found one.

Exactly

He's definitely not too bright, he just leans on whatever's popular and tries to maximize his viewership. Nowadays it just happens to be antivaxx stuff. Several years back he was on the train of "don't vote" camp during the UK election. Johnny Rotten actually had an interview blasting him calling him stupid and useless, which was pretty funny. Some more years back he was in the "occupy" camp staging shit around big corporate headquarters trying to pull the old Michael Moore shit.

@@troyburgeon518 oh touched a nerve there. You and those like you need to realise that the reality of Brexit is now emerging and it's just as bad as the experts we were told to ignore said it would be, it never was Project Fear but Project Reality. Now no doubt you and those like you will continue to blame anything and anybody for the failure you wanted. however there is a very strong British characteristic that will come to the fore in the coming years and that is looking for somebody to blame when Brits feel they've been lied to and conned and you among others will be among those that get turned on. Come this or next Summer when people return to their Mediterranean holidays and suddenly they have to queue where the last time they visited they just sauntered through. when they discover that many of the things they took for granted have been taken away from them they will come back angry. When the cost of living increases with no benefits that anger will grow. No doubt the right wing media lies will continue until the point when those media owners realise the tide is about to turn and they too will be the target and suddenly they will revise their opinions. Just how many other countries have the Daily Express now told us are about to leave the EU over the past five years? It would be easier and shorter to name those they haven't claimed were leaving. But they're all still there and when there is any talk by right wing parties of leaving the people take to the streets to demand nothing of the kind happens. As Winston Churchill said the truth always eventually comes out and those responsible for the lies are held to account. Sadly however there will be no rapid return to the EU for the UK because the nations of the EU no longer trust us and will only take the UK back on their knees because as we see every week it turns out that the UK needs the EU much more than the EU needs the UK.

@@stephenhodgson3506thinks Russell caused brexit🤪..Russell brand!! 😁...what a plum

@@tomwilko7841 You clearly have a problem understanding English don't you? The largest demographic that didn't vote in the referendum was the youth. That youth are more heavily influenced by celebrity influencers. When an influencer says don't vote there's no point that has a real impact. Just as the older generation who did vote were influenced by the lies of the Leave campaign who told them the EU was out to get them and we were going to be flooded with immigrants. Both groups voted or didn't vote against their own interests. The youth have suddenly seen their future advancement curtailed and will now have to pay much of the cost of Brexit. The elderly are suddenly discovering that their care homes are now short staffed because those immigrants who cared for them went home and new carers can't get in because they don't get enough points. What many of the elderly also did not realise is that they will now miss out on phase two of the EU Pensions Directive. Phase one involved equalising the EU retirement age Phase Two involved raising Pension amounts to the best in the EU. As the UK has some of the worst State Pensions in Europe UK pensioners were in for huge increases which they voted away. Back to the original point the younger generations are hugely influenced by celebrities and influencers and in 2016 Russell Brand was such an influencer and according to those questioned did deter a large number of young people from voting. so yes he was a large factor in the outcome of the vote. From the comments that came after the result was announced and people were questioned as to why they voted the way they did he himself realised that he had had a negative impact hence his statement "I'm just a comedian, people shouldn't listen to me on such important matters." But clearly your understanding of English fails to allow you to comprehend those facts.

@@darkpassenger65 yup, I don’t get why people are calling him stupid. Russell is a very intelligent man who is totally using it to his advantage. He’s purposely saying he’s no opinion on it and he’s neutral on it all. It’s a tactic. I will say though in some respects he’s right to say people need to research beyond the media… that’s right but he carefully avoids saying what to look at from what I can gather.

@@RachaelLink I'm not going to point any fingers but a lot of people are angry, afraid, frustrated and confused right now. They don't know where to turn and it's having a very disruptive effect in our country. Social media does more harm than good, but what can you do? I'll be glad when all this is behind us. Right now might be a good time to get off the grid and check back in a decade or two and see if it's all been sorted out.

@@RachaelLink He may be intelligent, and he may be using it to his advantage on KZfaq, but what of his moral responsibility to the public? And with regard to "doing one's own research," I doubt that many people will be reading scientific, peer-reviewed papers on Covid vaccines. That's what real research would entail.

Yeah, and seeing his recent videos on the war in Ukraine where he is echoing ideas of contrarians/anti-establishment figures. Ideas like that Russia's invasion of Ukraine could have been prevented if the US had given Russia the 'security guarantees' it asked for such as barring Ukraine from joining the EU or NATO while at the same time ignoring why exactly Ukraine would want to be part of EU or NATO in the first place and also at the same time somehow being naively confident that Putin wouldn't have done so eventually anyways. Past behaviour is usually a good indicator of future behaviour, Putin is no exception. At the same time, they are also peddling ideas that border on conspiracy theories that the US/WEST has intentionally psyop-ed Putin/Russia into starting this war by not giving enough visible support to Ukraine in the years prior and not condemning Putins' prior war-mongering enough to keep him in check. Knowing that he would get bogged down in Ukraine, so they are saying the US/WEST/EU has manipulated Russia to further their geopolitical goals. So which one is it? Russell is revealing himself to be more and more comfortable with being contrarian/anti-establishment to a point where it borders on lunacy because he's getting rich from all the attention he gets for being 'edgy' most notably he is very popular with right-wing adjacent types.

you really need to open your thopghts and go and watch his stuff, dont watch it tinking he is now against you and swapped sides to the right, watch his video from today and tell me he isnt just speaking facts and truths and doing nothing other than offer your mind a free spac to think for itself.
