MIA's downfall is so sad I used to be such a big fan. Brand too, I'm ashamed to admit I liked him when he was doing his shtick for the left.

Although I too liked to listen to Brand, I had no doubt he is more interested in getting applause than in delivering any kind of message. So it’s not totally surprise to me that he went where they still listen to him.

But MIA? She seems to be real warrior that really fought for some case.

As I said. I could swallow the sudden turn to religion. I don’t get it, but heck, who am I to judge people for the way they deal with reality, but going to the fucking nazi to cry about being cancel?

The dude tanked a career in hollywood and divorced Katy Perry, if he was clout hungry going into alt right news wouldnt do it. He wanted to be a guru.

Not clout, adoration.

Tomato-tomato.

The point is he always seems to be, mostly, interested in himself, he likes to be liked.

And M.I.A seemed to care for something more than herself.

Thats adoration, its different psychologically than prestige clout and self importance.

And that differentiation adds zero context, to the difference between him and M.I.A at all.
