Nature of the allogations aside, isn't this what possibly happened to Brand? He spoke things that many wished went unsaid. Eventually the "terms & conditions" were tweaked so to speak and now the critic is silenced, marginalized and humiliated. Of all the targets to pick, why Brand? Why now?

>He spoke things that many wished went unsaid. Yes, but why did they wish it unsaid? Is it because he's speakin (uncomfortable) truth to power, or because he's an ignorant man spreading potentially dangerous narratives?

    Perpetual crisis leads to perpetual fear and nothing nudges and controls behaviour better than fear. Nothing makes people not act in their own best self-interest (e.h., diet and lifestyle) than fear. Nothing nudges people to forfeit their individuality to a group of overseers (i.e., government) more than fear. Nothing blinds people to possibilities other than the dysfunctional status quo more than fear. Nothing servers fear better than more fear. Not my opinion. This is history's opinion.

Russel Brand has just had a number of sexual assault allegations made against him [1]. I would assume Youtube's decision is linked to those allegations rather than the content of his channel, since his channel content has been pretty consistent [1]: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-66838794 https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-66838794

  Allegations? Anyone can say anything but we have courts to prove they-said-they-said type problems. That's pretty shitty.
