Russell Brand, the British comedian, used a guest editorship of the 100-plus-year-old leftist magazine New Statesman last month to call for a "total revolution of consciousness and our entire social, political and economic system." Capitalism, and the ideology that sustains it — "100 percent corrupt" — must be overthrown. He also doesn't think people should vote, as partaking in democracy would further the illusion that a rotten system could change. It was a call, albeit chaotically phrased, for a socialist revolution. |

Good. Where can I go to withdraw from his bank account?
Idiot. |
|
I do not understand why these "celebrities" think anyone gives a fuck about their opinions or political views.
|
|
|
Rich celebes talking about socialism and spreading the wealth .... as along as it's not "their wealth". Who would have guessed
|
|
He's a millionaire entertainer and he wants to see a socialist revolution? Surrrrrrrre you do, Russell.
|
|
His next live show will sell out all seats.
He's padding his own bottom line. |

Each according to his need. I need a Larue OBR Mr. Brand. Get it for me NOW!
|
|
Pffft, socialist revolutions are so 2013.
Russel Brand: proof that a large vocabulary does not mean that you are intelligent |
|
Yes, I always seek out former Heroin junkies to get an in depth treatise on socio-economic political theories.
|
|
Russell Brand is Fuckin idiot and when the balloon goes up,he's one of the first ones we eat!!
|
|
|
Not even cool anymore. He's like 230-ish years too late. French already tried it, ask them how it worked out...

Lol, what a little bitch. He doesn't want a war, he wants to government(s) to do his dirty work for him while he drinks cappuccinos in his mansion.

Hey fucktard, youve got more money than me , Im on my way over. Ill take it all in 100s .
|
|
|
Any time some one suggests sharing the wealth to me, I counter with the suggestion to spread the pussy.
Some people get it, some don't. |

Russel Brand is an idiot.
You know, most hippie libtards that want socialism don't really understand what it is. They're focused on the receiving end of it - "to each according to his need." They think this means that they, and everyone else, will have everything they need and that nobody will be poor or destitute anymore. But they are forgetting the other half. FROM EACH ACCORDING TO HIS ABILITY. You think you're gonna sit on your ass waxing poetic about 17th Century French Underwater Basketweaving at the local Starbucks all day? NOPE, YOUR ASS IS GOING TO WORK. You have no valuable skills? YOU WILL DIG DITCHES AND DO MANUAL LABOR. Don't like that? OFF TO THE GULAG FOR YOU! |
|
|
I mean if it hasn't worked for dozens of collapsed socialist systems, it just HAS to work this time. Right?
|
|
Fine.
No problem. Just like how the idiots in the streets of Phnom Penh clapping and cheering for the Khmer Rouge were among the first to be killed,he would be in the 1% of those whose wealth needs redistributed. Funny how they are deluded into thinking they are actually useful rather than easily replaceable entertainers. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |

I agree. Brand is revolting. Even more revolting when he opens his mouth and speaks.
Brand, I challenge you to prove your bullshit and reject all capitalism, starting with your own personal wealth. |
|
He's an unfunny shitbag. Hopefully he can convince a few more fucktards to not vote.
|
|
I do partly agree with the statement that voting gives the illusion of change. Seems like the only way you could get any true change in the system would be to create laws that the lawmakers have no interest in passing because it would not benefit them instead of those they are serving.

While a capitalist and/or democratic system can become corrupt, a socialist system is always intrinisically corrupt.
I'll stick with our current system, thanks. |

"Listen to me because I'm a rich celebrity. I have millions of dollars that I got from corrupt capitalism. But I'm different and not corrupt." |
