Russell Brand Convicted In UK Court On Charges Of Raping While Not Muslim

[Dixie Forever @DixieForeverRJ]

African Tippu Tip owned roughly 10,000 slaves in the 1890s. That was decades after the American Civil War, the Emancipation Proclamation, and the 13th Amendment.

While white European societies had already abolished the slave trade and then slavery itself this man was still marching deep into Central Africa, burning villages, chaining captives, and selling them.

Tippu Tip became a famous slave and ivory trader of the East African interior. He led armed caravans of thousands of men hundreds of miles inland, raiding villages at dawn, killing the weak or elderly on the spot, and marching the rest in coffles to the coast. Roughly one-third of the captives often died on the journey.

The survivors were sold for Zanzibar’s clove plantations, for domestic service, and for export to the Arabian Peninsula and the Gulf. Women and girls were routinely taken as sex slaves and concubines—standard practice in the Arab trade for centuries.

By 1895 he controlled seven plantations worked by about 10,000 slaves. He built a personal commercial and political domain in the eastern Congo, confirmed or replaced local chiefs, monopolized the ivory trade, and became one of the richest men of his era.

He assisted European explorers when it suited him, then watched from comfortable retirement in Zanzibar as European powers finished suppressing the trade he had helped expand. He died in 1905.

This photograph of him seated in turban and robes, staff in hand, is the classic image of the merchant who got rich selling other Africans.

You can earn a degree in African American studies and never hear Tippu Tip’s name, or the names of the African kings and Arab traders who actually captured and sold Africans who crossed the Atlantic or the Indian. Today’s universities treat the Arab and Swahili caravan Slave traders as footnotes or ignored entirely.

This is not an accident. Acknowledging that African elites and Middle Eastern buyers ran the supply side for centuries undercuts the simple narrative that frames slavery as a uniquely white-European or American invention.

British whites abolished the slave trade in 1807 and slavery in its colonies in 1833, then spent decades and enormous resources on naval patrols to stop the trade. The United States followed in 1865. These white societies were among the first large-scale institutional and systematic bans on slavery in history.

Slavery and the open slave trade continued in Africa and the Islamic world long afterward. Legal chattel slavery was abolished in Saudi Arabia only in 1962; Mauritania was the last country to ban it on paper, in 1981. Tippu Tip’s operation in the 1880s and 1890s was not a dying remnant; it was still large, profitable, and expanding under Arab-Swahili leadership.

The peak slave population in the United States in 1860 was about 3.95 million. Modern estimates of people in forced labor, forced marriage, and other forms of modern slavery put the global total near 50 million TODAY!!!.

Africa alone accounts for millions of slaves TODAY; the Arab states also show some of the highest prevalence rates in the world TODAY. Absolute numbers of people in modern slavery in Africa and the Middle East today exceed the peak historical figure for the United States. Definitions differ—historical chattel slavery is not identical to every form of forced marriage or debt bondage—but the scale of ongoing exploitation is not small.

Tippu Tip was certainly not the only African slave trader. Arab and Swahili traders from Zanzibar and the Omani sphere ran the East African trade for generations, selling captives north into the Middle East for labor, military service.

European societies were among the first to abolish slavery and enforce the ban. That fact is routinely omitted from the version of history taught in American universities. The men who owned ten thousand slaves in the 1890s while marching deep into the African interior should not be ignored. -RJ

Liberal Goes Back In Time To Kill Hitler

[𝐃𝐚𝐫𝐤 𝐇𝐚𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐝 @DKH013]

To everyone in the LGBTQ+ community, I hope you take the time to watch this video and truly listen to what is being said.

Don't just watch it. Hear the message. Ask questions. Think critically.

I know this is a sensitive topic. I know for a lot of people, this is personal. It's about identity. It's about belonging. It's about finally feeling seen. I get that. And nobody is trying to take that away from you.

But this is exactly why we need to have honest conversations.

Don't just accept what you are told because it sounds supportive. Don't just accept what you are told because it comes from a doctor, or a clinic, or an influencer, or a big organization. Ask questions.

Ask: What are the long-term effects?
Ask: What happens if I change my mind?
Ask: What are the risks?
Ask: What are ALL my options?

And let's not ignore the pharmaceutical industry's financial interests in medications that some patients may need to take long-term.

This is the part nobody wants to talk about. When a patient has to stay on a medication for years, or for life, that is not just healthcare. That is a business model. That is recurring revenue. And when there is that much money involved, we have to ask who is really benefiting.

Healthcare should always put people before profits. Patients deserve transparency, honest information, and the freedom to make informed decisions about their own health.

Not rushed decisions. Not pressured decisions. Not decisions made because you were afraid to ask questions or afraid of being called a bad person for asking.

Informed decisions. Real information. Real risks. Real benefits. Real alternatives.

You deserve that. Every patient deserves that. No matter who you are. No matter how you identify.

This conversation deserves attention. 🚨

Not because we want to divide people. But because we want to protect people.

Watch it. Listen. Think. Then decide for yourself.

He got too honest, too loud, too influential, about the things they don’t want to be heard.

The Branding of a Dissident: The UK's Corrupt Judiciary Just Sentenced Truth to 10 Years in Hell

The United Kingdom has just witnessed the ultimate display of selective justice, a spectacle so transparently corrupt it should make every single person with a shred of decency sick to their stomach.

Russell Brand has been handed a sentence of 10 years and 6 months by Judge Joel Bennathan at Southwark Crown Court.

This is not justice. This is a political hit job wrapped in the robes of the law, designed to destroy a man who dared to challenge the very establishment that now sits in judgment of him.

Look at the numbers. Look at the sheer audacity of this so-called "justice system." Brand was convicted of one count of rape and three counts of sexual assault, alleged to have occurred between 2004 and 2009.

For this, he receives a decade behind bars. Yet, where is this same iron fist when it comes to actual, proven violent criminals who happen to align with the narratives the elite despise? The hypocrisy is staggering. We see individuals convicted of genuine, violent rape cases receiving suspended sentences or walking free with time served because they fit the profile of the "victim" or the "perpetrator" that the media complex prefers. But Brand? A man who has openly discussed his past addictions and who has become a vocal critic of the pharmaceutical industry, the media, and the government's control mechanisms? He gets the book thrown at him with a speed and severity that is frankly terrifying.

The judge, Joel Bennathan, had the gall to lecture Brand about "fame" and "arrogance".

Let's be clear about what this really is. This is the establishment punishing dissent. Brand's "crime" in the eyes of the state was not what happened in a private room twenty years ago, which he has consistently denied, claiming all encounters were consensual.

His real crime was becoming too influential, too questioning, and too dangerous to the narrative. The fact that a jury convicted him after a four-week trial where he was found not guilty of two counts of rape and one count of attempted indecent assault shows the fragility of the case against him.

Even with the deck stacked, with the media circus demanding blood, they could only get a conviction on a fraction of the charges. And yet, the sentence is 10.5 years.

Compare this to the absolute travesty we see in other cases. We have seen individuals convicted of violent crimes, crimes with DNA evidence and immediate reporting, receive sentences that are a fraction of this for far more egregious acts. The disparity is not an accident. It is a feature of a system that has been infiltrated by ideological zealots who view the law as a weapon to be used against their enemies. The left and their allies in the judiciary and the media have created a culture where an accusation is a conviction, and where the accused is guilty until proven innocent, a complete inversion of the very principles this country was built upon.

The fact that Brand will serve two-thirds of this sentence before any possibility of release is a testament to the severity with which the state is treating this.

They are making an example of him. They are sending a message to anyone else who might think about stepping out of line, about questioning the official narrative, about challenging the power structures that govern our lives. This is about silencing a voice that has become too loud, too popular, and too effective at exposing the rot at the heart of our institutions.

This entire process, from the initial accusations that were eagerly amplified by every major media outlet without question, to the swift and severe sentencing, has been a masterful manipulation of the public. They want you to believe this is about justice for women. It is not. It is about justice for the state. It is about crushing a man who has become a symbol of resistance. The left's obsession with canceling, de-platforming, and now imprisoning those who disagree with them has reached its logical conclusion. They have no arguments left. They have no moral high ground. All they have is the power of the state, and they are using it with a ruthlessness that should terrify every single one of us.

The UK justice system has today proven itself to be nothing more than a tool of political repression. It is corrupt, it is biased, and it is fundamentally broken. Russell Brand is a political prisoner, and his imprisonment is a stain on the soul of this nation that will not be easily washed away.

We must stand with him, not because he is perfect, but because if they can do this to him, they can do it to anyone. And they will.

Completely hypothetical question: Suppose that someone today started a new religion that condoned pedophilia, viewed women as inferior, despised everyone who was not of their religion, hated dogs, desired to conquer every inch of the world, hated our culture, civilization, and heritage, was astoundingly illiberal, cut off the clitorises of five-year-old girls, along with 1,000,000 other pieces of evidence that were contrary to every one of your liberal values. Would you think it ok to ban it or should it be granted full freedom to take over our society?

Zastąpiliśmy stare chrześcijańskie leki nowoczesną psychologią, czyli SATANIZMEM, który usprawiedliwia wszelkie zwierzęce impulsy.

Dawniej człowiek miał duszę, a dusza miała obowiązki. Dzisiaj człowiek ma psychikę, a psychika ma potrzeby. I oto cała metafizyczna katastrofa naszych czasów!

Grzech przemianowano na traumę. Rozpustę na samorealizację. Tchórzostwo na troskę o własny komfort. Pycha stała się poczuciem własnej wartości, egoizm — stawianiem granic, a zwykłe, ordynarne świństwo — autentycznym wyrażaniem siebie.

Cóż za cudowna operacja na sumieniu! Bez skalpela, bez krwi, bez znieczulenia! Wystarczy zmienić nazwę, a zbrodnia moralna zamienia się w przypadek terapeutyczny.

Człowiek już nie odpowiada za swoje czyny. Człowiek się realizuje!

Jeżeli zdradza, to dlatego, że jego potrzeby emocjonalne nie zostały zaspokojone. Jeżeli krzywdzi, to dlatego, że sam został kiedyś skrzywdzony. Jeżeli jest nikczemny, to dlatego, że społeczeństwo nie pozwoliło mu rozwinąć jego prawdziwego JA.

A to JA! To monstrualne, rozdęte, tłuste JA, siedzące na tronie z własnych wydzielin psychicznych, domagające się nieustannego hołdu od całego wszechświata!

JA CZUJĘ! JA PRAGNĘ! JA POTRZEBUJĘ!

A więc mam rację!

Oto nowy katechizm. Oto objawienie epoki. Oto Ewangelia według Świętego Narcyza!

Chrześcijaństwo, przy całej swojej straszliwej surowości, stawiało przed człowiekiem zadanie niemal nadludzkie: przekroczyć samego siebie. Opanować namiętności. Zapanować nad żądzą. Nie być niewolnikiem własnego brzucha, genitaliów, strachu i próżności.

A współczesny człowiek?

Współczesny człowiek urządził sobie z własnego brzucha świątynię, z genitaliów wyrocznię, a ze strachu najwyższą instancję moralną.

Nie chce już zbawienia. Chce akceptacji.

Nie chce prawdy. Chce potwierdzenia.

Nie chce być lepszy. Chce usłyszeć, że już jest doskonały, a wszystkie jego świństwa są tylko naturalnymi przejawami jego cudownej osobowości.

I dlatego nazywam to SATANIZMEM.

Nie tym teatralnym, z rogami, pentagramami i czarnymi świecami. To byłoby jeszcze zbyt uczciwe! Diabeł przynajmniej miał kiedyś odwagę występować jako diabeł.

Nie! Dzisiejszy szatan nosi miękki sweterek, mówi spokojnym głosem i zapewnia, że nie powinniśmy siebie osądzać.

Nie kusi już człowieka do grzechu.

On mu tłumaczy, że grzech nigdy nie istniał.

A człowiek, ta nieszczęsna małpa metafizyczna, która przez tysiąclecia próbowała wydostać się ze swojej zwierzęcości, przyjmuje tę wiadomość z zachwytem.

Wreszcie wolno mu być świnią bez poczucia winy!

Wreszcie może tarzać się we własnych instynktach i nazywać to rozwojem osobistym!

Wreszcie nie musi już walczyć z samym sobą!

I oto największy triumf nowoczesności: człowiek wyzwolony z obowiązku bycia człowiekiem.
