A while back I'd had it up to my ears with Russell Brand so told YouTube to never suggest a video of his. However, this latest one from a couple of days ago, sent me by mate, is simply wildly entertaining:

My mother showed me that Russell brand video the other day. I don't watch a lot of him either but he has a point there and that it was herself who showed me is a fair indicator of how mainstream the likes of this is getting.

Rumble Video, a platform I'm only vaguely aware of, have made an apparently totally serious offer to Joe Rogan of $100 million over 4 years to move ALL of his content over to them and produce new content with zero censorship, ever. This is really turning into a popcorn event!

I don't think he'll do it for a couple of reasons.

He likely has a contract with Spotify.
Neil Young wins.
Rumble isn't exactly a household name.
What does he have to be censored for now that he won't say the word anymore?

Then again, 100 million... what's he on at the minute?

I don't share Rogan's views on Covid, or numerous other issues for that matter, but I like his podcast, think he's a good and reasonably engaging presenter, and that he's probably a decent enough person. I'm not exactly sure myself where I stand on the overall controversy, so maybe I'm a bit hasty in passing it off as a bit of a non-issue, but Spotify is a streaming service and not a news agency or public service broadcaster...so I'm not sure what ethical or moral obligation it has to vet its podcaster's content any more than, say, the numerous musicians or bands it features with dodgy political views.
I hope no one posts up Howard 'hook nose' Stern's video of him black face with afro wig and spouting the N word...  :abbath:

Or even the despicable The Young Turks for that matter....
But sure here ya go...

You share the worst content, worse than my aunties, and that's saying something. A four year old story from the Mirror about a greetings card choice in one chain of supermarkets in the UK. Stop the fucking press! Oh wait, they did. Four years ago  :laugh:

The hullabaloo over a football player kicking his cat when billions of animals are brutally mistreated by the meat processing industry and others is beyond pathetic.

He is being crucified!

I'm not a vegan, although I respect the lifestyle choice, but for Jaysus sake, a bit of perspective, his pets taken off him, sponsors dropping him, massive fine and cunts signing petitions for him to be prosecuted. Get tae fuck!

https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/60312876

The optics are fairly bad Kev. I don't give two hoots about the vegan lifestyle and their reasoning and don't have nor want pets so I've no vested interest but it still takes a certain type of scumbag to do what he did. If some knacker did it, I'd hope they were prosecuted too. I haven't seen the video but in this instance I can certainly see why sponsors would be likely to drop him.

I saw the video. It's not the worst thing you'll ever see but it's not fucking on kicking and slapping your cat. Why they videoed it and put it up online is beyond me.

Here's the vid:

It's pointed abuse, not just a kick or a slap out of frustration, but physically abusing an animal, and passing the practice down to a kid and all. Shit things happen to animals in meat processing plants and on farms all the time, sure, and that's awful. But also, this guy, fuck him, who cares. Dug your grave, in ya get.

I'll put it this way lads, I'm delighted no one had a video recorder in their pocket in my day. Spastics on that front for sure.

Nevertheless, the reaction is way over the top. I caught my cat pissing on my runners and he received the discipline of a boot up the hole, swiftly and decisively.

No, fuck that. Animal abuse is reprehensible, no excuses. The harsher sanctions that hit the cunt, the better.

Just watched the video. No, fuck that cunt.  Dirty scumbag deserves whatever comes his way.

Wow so cool.
