Re: Russell Brand champion of the people?

So, aren't these youngsters going to make the connection that this guy has money, but is talking about the politics of not having money? Of having a morally decayed government and political systems...when they can see that this man has absolutely no morals at all.
Russell Brand is no better than the political systems he is having a pop at.
Do you think that they won't see the cynical ploy that he is using to manipulate his audience, the media and anyone who plugs into this......?
I think there are many young people out there who are smarter than you give them credit for...or is that just my vain hope?
They may be interested in the things you have cited, but these may not be their only interests.
So Guinness, I guess you are right...we are never going to agree tha Russell Brand is a champion of the people...now I'm just going to go and have another of my anti-cynicism pills...it seems like the last one is wearing off right now
