26. I'm always fascinated to watch Russell Brand… This is a GREAT Keiser Report

I think the best explanation for what TRUTHSEEKERS reach out to do in these times is how Brand philosophizes his part of "the revolution".

He's experienced a pretty full spectrum of vibration (being quite truthful of the drug culture, sex, then being successful on stage with all this in his routines. Now he sees what a lot of us talk about here. And it's really the same message, but with a charisma.

It's, "I've been there, done that" and realizes his own mortality. We've all gotten to that point (I'd hope) where we realize the precious time we have left on earth. He could be dangerous. He's able to be ignored by the mainstream (BBC) when drawing 50,000 people to his stream of consciousness about greed and who's in charge of a tribal nature long felt but recently forgotten.

IS it time to push humanity back to being human and not simple some corporate producer for the one percent? He's asking vast crowds that question, I suppose, and getting attention.

Whhooooo-oo-o-oo-oo--
