The Purple Rose of Gyro 🇺🇦 🇬🇧 🇨🇦🇮🇷🇫🇷

Thousands of people flooded my replies last week to insult me. They accused me of being part of a coordinated media conspiracy. They said the Russell Brand trial was a hit job by the establishment to silence an enlightened truth-teller. Well, the truth is finally here. And it is devastating. Russell Brand has just been found guilty of rape and three counts of sexual assault. He was denied bail and remanded straight into custody to spend the weekend in a prison cell before his sentencing. For the last three years, he weaponized alternative media to build a shield around himself. He branded himself a persecuted guru, got baptized on camera, and convinced millions of followers that the deep state was coming for him because he dared to speak the truth. He didn’t just lie to the public. He used his online audience as a human shield to avoid taking responsibility for the women whose lives he destroyed. Look at what he was actually found guilty of. Sexually assaulting women he cornered in bars and studios. Anally raping a woman in his own home while ignoring her begging him to stop. This wasn’t an edgy comedian who crossed a line with a joke. This was a ruthless, manipulative predator who used staggering fame to isolate women and treat them like disposable commodities. And look at the British media executives who enabled him. The television channels and radio stations that made millions off his "cheeky" public persona knew exactly how he operated. They watched him target young staff and guests, laughed it off as celebrity eccentricities, and kept handing him prime-time contracts. They are just as complicit as he is. But the real heroes today are the six women who stood in that courtroom. They did not know each other. They had nothing to gain financially. They endured years of online harassment, death threats, and public smearing from Brand’s fanatic supporters, all so they could stand in a witness box and finally force him to face the reality of what he did to them. The spiritual guru act is over, Russell. The conspiracy theories are dead. Today, Russell Brand is exactly what he always was: a convicted rapist sitting in a prison van.
