Russell Brand

I'm glad I'm not the only one who can see it here. Although, in general a lot of people seem to have wised up to his game or can see him for what he is. That's something.

A lot of his fans (much like Jones or Ickes fans) tend to go with the fallacy that if you don't buy into Brand's act, you're blind to the government, or automatically believe all the government says.
Because, obviously, if you don't hold attitude X, that automatically means you hold attitude Y. Of course!

Yes. Also, I always find it ironic that certain people don't want to trust anyone with first hand knowledge (such as someone who is on the front lines of any profession), yet these same people somehow find it easy to trust someone else who uses manipulative tricks such as saying, "This is what *they* don't want you to know." Or, "Don't trust anyone else but me, because I will tell you the truth." "I will explain the real truth to you since I know you don't want to be fooled any longer by x, y, or z."
