I’m not sure exactly where I stand on the concept of cultural appropriation personally* but presumably the circles Brinton moves in at least pretend to care about it?

Because this is surely a most obvious and egregious example of taking the aesthetic of someone else’s culture and being lauded for it without that person or their culture receiving any acknowledgement or credit?

He literal STOLE Asyaki Hamsin’s designs and paraded them about at events with guests who are at pinnacle of world politics!

Reposting Hamsin’s twitter to try and restore some of the balance - her designs should have her name attached (I hope the increased public profile results in good things for her mid and long term although I suspect it will be stressful in the short term).

*Personal view is that like with a lot of intersectional topics something that was once welll-intentioned and based on an observable phenomenon has gone monstrously out of control and is now used disingenuously to deepen divisions and claim personal capitall rather than facilitate cross cultural understanding and mutual respect

I saw one of his Insta posts via Twitter. He wore her stolen clothes to an event then tagged the post with a caption about fighting white supremacy.

You honestly couldn't make this shit up.

I wonder if it's too long ago for there to be CCTV footage from the airport where Hamsin lost her suitcase. Unless the pieces are literally unique it might be hard to definitively prove that he did not buy them or otherwise legitimately acquired them.

Not everything is about you either but you seem to be desperate for us all to toe your line with our words and delivery.

You think I come across as aggressive, I think you come across as patronising with an air of superiority here to tell us where we are all going wrong.

Look! I've no idea who you are; I was not even aware of you up until now. Don't engage with my posts if they are not to your taste. I will also know who to look out for, and avoid, in future. Perhaps you could create a separate thread for raking over the coals and nurturing personal grudges, and anyone else who is into that can join in witthout dreailing otherwise interesting or worthwhile discussions.

Not sure about that, but it might be possible to prove either that Brinton was nowhere near that airport when the suitcase disappeared or that he was there at the time, assuming he was flying himself.

On the theft question as a psychological phenomenon, my therapist acquaintance mentioned that the danger of possibly getting caught is part of the thrill of doing this. Boundary violations. And these can escalate in some cases.

So in what way is he not a man? I’m confused. Is he just your basic common or garden knicker nicker but spices it up by claiming he’s not a man like those other bad men who steal womens underwear?

It's cos he wears the knickers necklaces dresses etc he nicks!

He's not a knicker nicker he's a knicker nicker's bag picker, and he'll still be nicking knickers when the knicker bag bag picking's done.

Fighting white supremacy by wearing stolen clothes? Right you are

activism isn’t what it was, is it?

Reminds me of Ash Sarkar telling Julie Bindel she’d never done anything for Sally Challen because she’d searched her twitter timeline and there was no mention (justice for women campaigned on Challen’s behalf)

seems like Brinton and Sarkar’s activism has a lot in common

nepeta · 23/02/2023 16:13

It seems that Brinton might have stolen at least three suitcases, then. All from women. Possibly more than that.

picklemewalnuts · 23/02/2023 16:13

Funnily enough, he looks like those pictures TRAs often use where they've cut and paste a more flattering version of their face onto another picture.

Only he does it without needing tech. It's like his face is at a different event from the rest of him.

About my last para above: So wearing the stolen clothing in public would be part of the thrill as he might get caught.

BernardBlacksMolluscs · 23/02/2023 16:26

And I should say YY to making my skin crawl

that man is creepy as fuck and very much enjoying it <shudder>

Sam Brinton has been accused but has not been convicted have they? And yet the chat unfolds as if it has.

I think the evidence is pretty clear as Sam has been photographed on a number of occasions wearing the one off clothes of a fashion designer whose case he stole. He is currently splashed all over social media with the irrefutable evidence of his crimes.

As they say ‘he has been caught bang to rights’.

This information has been available for a while now. I would be surprised if other women don’t come forward having identified a garment that he stole being worn by him in public.

This takes the creepiness of his thefts to a whole new level.

And Brinton was caught on camera stealing a woman's suitcase at an airport.

Not (yet) convicted but the evidence is overwhelming: admission of guilt, caught on camera and caught wearing one-off clothing after the designer herself declared her luggage stolen...

According to an article I read, Brinton's lawyer said that he (the lawyer) was considering all options with the justice system.

Oh - and I love in that video clip of Brinton leaving the courtroom Brinton could not resist sticking Brinton's tongue out...

DeanVolecapeAKAelderberry · 23/02/2023 16:56

I'm sure the thrill of getting caught is a major part of it, coupled with an assumption no-one can prove the crime. He may have made a mistake stealing clothes made from an African print fabric - they're very distinctive and not widely available, and if the collection was photographed there'll be a clear record of several different very distinctive prints in their original owner's possession, and then by weird coincidence the same very distinctive prints draped over his nasty torso.

Stealing stuff going to a show was just evil - I hope he's sued for loss of income as well as serial theft.

He's not a knicker nicker he's a knicker nicker's bag picker, and he'll still be nicking knickers when the knicker bag bag picking's done.

Very good!

And I'll just add that he's not a pheasant plucker.

picklemewalnuts · 23/02/2023 22:31

He's not a pleasant fucker, either.

Personally I find it really helpful, as I keep reading it as Sal Brinton (the Lib Dem peer), and the non-binary bit reminds me that it's not her, it's someone else.

If we aren't constantly told Sam is NB how will the pronoun people know what his pronouns are?
Do they have even more special magic?

Yes.

Either people want their identities known and respected, by perpetually communicating said identities, or they are going to have to accept that other people just observe and make their own judgements and decisions on which words to use.

Traditionally, we just used the obvious words to refer to males and females. Now, we're told that nobody knows what words should be used. We have to be told. This is why people have special names and pronouns.

But now we're also told that we shouldn't use the requested words if some other people tell us that we shouldn't. In fact it's very wrong to use some people's requested words if some other people say so. But only in certain instances, like when someone has been accused of doing something criminal. Although the First Minister of Scotland will use the requested words and pronouns for a rapist, lots of other people think we shouldn't.

It's quite confusing.

It's not confusing at all.
Until their crimes become common knowledge they are sparkly princesses on raindow flying unicorn ponies from the Kingdom Theydom of Gender Woowoo who bring light and joy to the entire world and can do no wrong.
After their criminal activity becomes common knowledge they were never from the Kingdom Theydom of Gender Woowoo, and were just imposters all along, and no one from the Kingdom Theydom of Gender Woowoo ever remembers them ever having anything to do with the Kingdom Theydom of Gender Woowoo evar! And they slope off back to the mundane drab seedy world of paedophiles, groomers, third gender rapists, and fetishistic luggage thieves.

Brinton is clearly a fetishist.
No different to the creepy man that steals underwear from washing lines.
These sort of crimes progress to more dangerous ones. At least everyone knows what he is now.
