Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” talks to Russell Brand about his controversial appearance on “Real Time with Bill Maher” where he roasted MSNBC, Pfizer, and Big Pharma to the face of MSNBC host John Heilemann; the true differences between conservative and progressive ways of living; pandemic profiteering; if he considers himself a libertarian; why we should be striving to achieve maximum democracy; what sustainable communities would actually look like; how corporatism has replaced capitalism; why he doesn’t buy into the “Enlightenment Now” ideas of Steven Pinker and Jordan Peterson; why it’s a waste of time to talk about the differences between Republicans and Democrats; why both political parties in our two party system have been corrupted; how he went from stand up comedy to Hollywood actor to activist thought leader; how we are approaching an end to the corporatism influenced neoliberalism economy that we currently live in; why we should be worried about new forms of authoritarianism; why maximum democracy is so essential to fix our broken systems; how the liberal establishment like the Clinton Foundation got corrupted by the military industrial complex; and much more.
