All roads lead to Gorgie Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 He has turned into one of those bonkers conspiracy theory followers along with Neil Oliver amongst others. I wonder what this will reveal though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joey J J Jr Shabadoo Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 Katherine Ryan apparently says he's a sexual predator, and told him to his face, every day they worked together. The guy is guilty, IMO, and trying to control the debate. Brand is a horrible, nasty piece of work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doctor jambo Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 Odd. Here is where “consent” is over ridden by power gap. Im pretty sure this will be similar to the Marilyn Manson allegations. Where consent is given at the time , then years later withdrawn retrospectively with accusations of love bombing and coercion.. I don’t like the guy very much , but this looks like another witch hunt. though this is entirely speculative on my part , and if the allegations are of rape, and not merely regret, I retract all of the above Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, he admits himself he pursued lots of sex. Amd got lots of it too. And used his position as well I’m sure- if he was not famous he wouldn’t be as prolific as he was, but he is not unique in that. Include all footballers, movie stars, rich dudes, in that category.

I've said this before and it was laughed at but I think in the future you will have to sign a form or something before having sex with someone to prove you both consented.

No due process for Russell. “He pressured me into sex” I presume . I didn’t want to, but did, didn’t say no , but meant no. It’s a horrible can of worms. The ability to read minds of women eludes most of us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

been here before Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 An absolute weapon of a man, a military grade throbber. A total prick. Whatever the accusations may or not be, whatever the validity of the story or the strength or otherwise of the proof, he's guilty. And he's shitting himself.

Tazio Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 I imagine the programme is about more than one individual as it’s 90 minutes long. Probably about the culture in stand up that people have been talking about for a while where some established male comedians have a culture of bad behaviour towards women.
