Russell Brand Accuses Democrats Of Colluding With Big Tech To Influence 2020 Election
In the battle of subversive British personalities pulling off edgy commentary in America, comedian Russell Brand takes the cake over the self-aggrandizing Prince Harry.
Get Him To The Greek star and comedian Russell Brand, now occupied as a full-time host of the “Under the Skin” podcast, has frequently questioned the rioting, poisonous political discourse, censorship from major tech companies, and corporate race-baiting in America in the past several years.
Brand may not be a conservative himself, but he displays refreshing common sense in pointing out flaws within his own party. Such honesty is more than we often expect from a modern Hollywood personality.
“Look, I’m not a pro-Republican person. I don’t see myself that way," said Brand. "I don’t see myself as a conservative, or that I’m in a Trump or Giuliani or media establishments that were reporting on these revelations. They are not my cultural, social, or political allies. That’s certainly not how I see myself. However, it seems to me that what reason is Hunter Biden on the board of an energy company in the Ukraine? What reason is James Biden on the board or receiving payments from an energy company in China?”

Brand suggests that tech leaders in Silicon Valley are altering the public conversation on politics through selective editing and biased media coverage -- and he's right.
The most notable, hand caught in the flame Big Tech censorship moment came when Twitter suspended the official NY Post account after the publication tweeted credible evidence about the Hunter Biden laptop story just as tensions between Biden and Trump in the 2020 election were ramping up.
“Did the media and social media conspire together to keep information about Joe Biden and Hunter Biden’s relationship with foreign energy companies out of the media?” Brand asks during his episode. “The answer is: yes, they did.”
As the podcast craze continues to turn Americans into dedicated fans of names like Joe Rogan, Bill Burr, and Brand himself, Leftists in mainstream media -- who forbid discussion of certain topics -- have starved Americans of common sense discussions and tacitly encouraged them to explore more transparent conversations elsewhere, such as on various podcasts.
According to a Statista report, 55% of Americans over the age of 12 have listened to podcasts.
Brand himself has participated in interviews with staunch conservatives like Candace Owens, thereby engaging in honest conversation with people on any end of the political spectrum and aiding the movement to cancel Cancel Culture.
Brand may be a Hollywood figure with whom you disagree politically, but he has demonstrated a willingness to engage in discourse without hysteria. Americans in and out of Hollywood should take notice of Brand's defiant stance against the media.
