Brand get ready to learn Hebrew buddy.
Least shocking revelation ever. That guy always struck me as a creep.
Yeah, wasn't admitting to SA a huge part of his stand-up routine?
We get it you r-ape
It's always the ones you most suspect innit
So that's why he made a right wing shift
A shame really as he had good left content back before he switched to conspiracy and brainworms grifter.
I don't know... He always struck me as one of those hippies whose only in it to get laid.

100000%. I gather OldSoulHippie here traveled in the same or very similar circles around the same time as me growing up and we have seen soooooooooo many of these guys. I caught that vibe from him the first time I ever saw him speak. The dude just oozes sleaze.
Yup. Most likely. I went to my first hippie music festival in 2006 and my last contact with "the scene" was 2023 at a Dead and Company show. I've seen some wild shit. I've had a lot of great times too, but there are so many scumbags that dress the part, have a nice face and enough earthy platitudes to lure young girls into thinking they're so spiritual and wise. The movers and shakers of the jamband/festival world are for the most part absolute scumbags. The weird hippie capitalism that came up around what could have been a great place to mint leftists is really something to behold
Dead and Company
There is like a 50% chance you have been in a crowd with my mom lmao.
That describes my thoughts perfectly, I really thought this happened years ago
This is a headline from The Onion from 2023 lmao
wow.. so on point
LOL, I really ate an onion this morning because I saw this post on /r/TrueAnon saying he was moving to israel, and I thought that was the news.

This photo was taken on February 16 2025. RFK is appointed as Secretary of HHS and Oz is appointed as the admin of Medicare and Medicaid.
I can't tell of that's Tom Hanks squinting and Ron Paul with too much sunburn or RFK and some other guy.
It's the snake-oil salesman Mehmet Oz of The Dr Oz Show, spinoff from The Oprah Winfrey Show. Oz ran as republican in the Pennsylvania Senate race and lost to Fetterman. Yesterday Oz was confirmed by the Senate as the new Administrator of Medicare and Medicaid.
It's kind of lazy writing to name your sham witchdoctor "Oz" and have him just be the Wizard of Oz verbatim in a modern setting.
Like maybe an allusion or something? Sure. But this heavy handed? Bruh. It's like having a character named Benedict Wang Jingwei Arnold and they betray the protagonist.
nsfw tag and cw please
Sure, done.
What we actually need are post tags so users can filter these posts out of their feed before seeing them regardless of the title.
"I've never engaged in non-consensual activity."
Yeah, he’s consented to every sexual encounter that he’s forced on someone else.
Anyone who still refers to exiting the vampire castle as worthy of anything more than being used as toilet paper should be handled with utmost suspicion.
exiting the vampire castle
i have no idea what that is and i'm not looking it up
Mark Fisher whining about woke. Its a reference point to the worst kind of "leftists" you could imagine
Le username is epicly checking out!
I liked Fisher's Capitalist Realism but never read any of his other works, always kind of bummed me out how he killed himself.
Yeah stupidpol types are always going on about how "the evil wokes" drove him to do it.
Correct approach, it's the only way to browse this website. We're all in this together.
I was sittin here feeling bad that I thought this guy just looked like a sexual predator. Imagine my relief when everyone else apparently thought the same thing.
Shocked pikachu face.
Watch him go back to being a leftist in jail for some reason
material conditions?

Welcome to c/news! We aim to foster a book-club type environment for discussion and critical analysis of the news. Our policy objectives are:
-
To learn about and discuss meaningful news, analysis and perspectives from around the world, with a focus on news outside the Anglosphere and beyond what is normally seen in corporate media (e.g. anti-imperialist, anti-Zionist, Marxist, Indigenous, LGBTQ, people of colour).
-
To encourage community members to contribute commentary and for others to thoughtfully engage with this material.
-
To support healthy and good faith discussion as comrades, sharpening our analytical skills and helping one another better understand geopolitics.
We ask community members to appreciate the uncertainty inherent in critical analysis of current events, the need to constantly learn, and take part in the community with humility. None of us are the One True Leftist, not even you, the reader.
Newcomm and Newsmega Rules:
The Hexbear Code of Conduct and Terms of Service apply here.
-
Link titles: Please use informative link titles. Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.
-
Content warnings: Posts on the newscomm and top-level replies on the newsmega should use content warnings appropriately. Please be thoughtful about wording and triggers when describing awful things in post titles.
-
Fake news: No fake news posts ever, including April 1st. Deliberate fake news posting is a bannable offense. If you mistakenly post fake news the mod team may ask you to delete/modify the post or we may delete it ourselves.
-
Link sources: All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. If you are citing a Twitter post as news, please include the Xcancel.com (or another Nitter instance) or at least strip out identifier information from the twitter link. There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance, such as Libredirect or archive them as you would any other reactionary source.
-
Archive sites: We highly encourage use of non-paywalled archive sites (i.e. archive.is, web.archive.org, ghostarchive.org) so that links are widely accessible to the community and so that reactionary sources don’t derive data/ad revenue from Hexbear users. If you see a link without an archive link, please archive it yourself and add it to the thread, ask the OP to fix it, or report to mods. Including text of articles in threads is welcome.
-
Low effort material: Avoid memes/jokes/shitposts in newscomm posts and top-level replies to the newsmega. This kind of content is OK in post replies and in newsmega sub-threads. We encourage the community to balance their contribution of low effort material with effort posts, links to real news/analysis, and meaningful engagement with material posted in the community.
-
American politics: Discussion and effort posts on the (potential) material impacts of American electoral politics is welcome, but the never-ending circus of American Politics© Brought to You by Mountain Dew™ is not welcome. This refers to polling, pundit reactions, electoral horse races, rumors of who might run, etc.
-
Electoralism: Please try to avoid struggle sessions about the value of voting/taking part in the electoral system in the West. c/electoralism is right over there.
-
AI Slop: Don't post AI generated content. Posts about AI race/chip wars/data centers are fine.
