    When I was poor and I complained about inequality they said I was bitter. Now I’m rich and I complain about inequality they say I’m a hypocrite. I’m starting to think they just don’t want to talk about inequality. —Russell Brand

    Still one of my favorite quotes, it’s unfortunate that I won’t really be able to use it any more.

    Brand used to be a legit socialist back in the day. The longer he had money, the harder I think was for him to continue to understand the struggle of the common people. Either that or its audience capture like what happened to Dave Rueben.

    The YouTube channel the Kavernacle has done some good coverage on his drift to the right.
