    Russell Brand hits mainstream, calling for revolution

    Well, this is an interesting development. We've probably all seen the robust interview with Paxman where Brand calls for a revolution.

    This is on the front page of Sydney Morning Herald website - mainstream media.

    It's not a re-run of the interview, but rather an analysis of why it's hit a chord. Interesting....

    When I first posted this, there were no comments.

    Now there are 92 comments. Interestingly enough, comments have now 'been closed'. Only about 10 comments are published*.

    How blatant is that for public censorship? The writing is on the wall for mainstream media.

    Edit: *you can see the rest of the 92 comments if you click 'read more', nevertheless the comments are now closed.

    Crikey those comments are depressing.

    A "revolution" by people who have little idea of what the current state of play is would only result in something far worse.

    The main reason things are like they are is because people are like they are, any revolution that seeks betterment requires internal revolution of the individual, and few either want or are prepared for that hard path.

    That article only proves that Thomas Sheridan was bang on in his appraisal of the whole RB phenomenon.http://thomassheridanofficialblog.bl...ll-cometh.html

    Interesting article Spiral and don't forget Brand was married to Katy Perry, a mind-controlled illuminati puppet.

    Oh dear, I'm starting to sound like a conspiracy theorist, lol...perish the thought.

    I still think this is all matter of interpretation. T Sheridan took the MSM interpretation of RB's words and used it to create his debunk story based on a few more people who are very suspicious and try to understand why the MSM uses RB. They might be right and this all might be a good stage to keep people asleep. But why all those who listened to the RB interview will be influenced by the BBC's interpretation of the story.

    Most of the people who can think independently won't take the call for revolution literally in terms that we all used to think in the past. In my opinion RB said that people should start thinking and not listening what anybody tells them,he spoke about politics but this was more symbolical or emblematically . He also called for spiritual revolution and if we ignore the socio -political terminology he used in its pure meaning he just told people to wake up and stand for their own real needs. Many thinkers started interpreting his words in the old fashioned socio - philosophical manner and for this reason it all came out as
    Russell Brand's interview on British Brain Control (BBC) where he advocated a SOCIALIST EGALITARIAN system based on the massive redistribution of wealth to solve today's political problems
    . Here I think some people tried to be clever.

    Since all this conversation was labeled in this manner some thinkers critics of the system and society will develop it further and will exploit this in a way that resonates with their own views. There is nothing wrong to be suspicious and to distrust everything that comes from the MSM but it is also important to try and see through different lenses. If we hypothetically separate RB from his past like his ex wife, royal visits and mistakes hes done and accept the possibility that he managed to turn his life, in a opposite direction and to use his wealth and status to promote mass awareness then things might look different. I am not saying this is the truth I am just saying that things might not be as straightforward as they look like. It is easy to demonize a person just because he is rich and has had dark past. I am not saying that he has to be accepted as a messiah or anything that might lead to just another cult. It is possible that RB used BBC to reach more sleeping people and BBC on the other hand used RB to tell those sleepers that you can't trust someone whose past speaks more than anything. And this is what most of the alternative media figures bought, they got the bait and try to turn alternative community against RB.

    I know I might be totally wrong here as I am relatively new in this. For this reason I cannot dismiss both ideas and I cannot decide for myself yet but I think that labeling RB as MSM puppet can be wrong but we still need to keep in mind that this might be true as well.

    Love,

    Rayna

    I don't think anyone is calling him a MSM puppet, more a Tavistock change agent, using his charm (thats if you don't find he makes your flesh creep) and the dopamine hits that have taken the likes of Icke to the top.


    Any one remember Charlie Veitch ???

    I do think he is ripe for co-opting at the moment. Has nt he hooked up with a Rothschild recently ?
    Ive followed his journey quite closely and his sincerity shines out for me.

    The ptb will have to " engage " him mind, because ironically, his current tour focuses on how the message of cultural icons like, Gandhi, Che Guevara etc
    have always been twisted to serve another agenda. Hope his " art " does nt imitate life.

    I think this interview with Alex Jones gives a more "under the bonnet" look at where Brand appears to be coming from.

    3 sides to every story - his side, her side and the Truth.

    In this case, I do believe the truth lies somewhere in there - and what is good and bad?!?! I have often seen one lead to the other - conversely I have seen one continue on course.

    Whether being manipulated or not, RB could be waking up some who can only be awaken by his type. Once awaken, they could then divert from revolution to evolution or anything inbetween
