To think Chris Brown should be next?

[ThisLimeMoose]

Now that Russell Brand has been found guilty of rape and sexual assault, can we please talk about Chris Brown?

A man who pleaded guilty to brutally assaulting Rihanna. A man who, just last month, received a suspended prison sentence after attacking another man with a glass bottle in a London nightclub.

And let’s not forget the housekeeper who suffered horrific facial and bodily injuries after being mauled by his guard dog. A jury found him liable for negligence.

These are just some of the incidents associated with him over the years. Yet somehow, he continues to sell out arenas, enjoy an enormous fanbase and be celebrated as though none of this matters. I’m genuinely baffled by the continued adoration of this man, particularly from women.

At what point do we stop excusing violent men simply because they’re famous and talented?

AIBU to think Chris Brown should have been held to much greater account long ago?

I totally agree.
I don't know if you have seen the footage of the reporter talking to his fans outside Hampden ahead of his concert there in July 2025. Asking if they know about his conviction for his assault on Rihanna, his other violence against women and rape accusations etc. Some of them say they haven't heard about these. But more worrying are the ones who have heard and don't really care. Absolutely shows why these men feel justified and invincible.
