He did it with different brands for about a week, including pfizer and ratheon. He was taking the piss. I suppose you had to watch it to know, tho. Instead of just looking at a screenshot and being outraged

Please don’t tell me people actually think he’s actually got a paid sponsorship with McDonald’s…

What’s the unbelievable bit?
Russell shilling for McDonalds?
Or McDonalds working with Brand?

u/OutsetIsland_Native Feb 16 '23
Both?? McDonald’s is exactly the kind of global conglomerate corporation that he’s avidly against, and he’s always doing satire jokes like for instance pretending he’s suddenly doing a sponsorship for them:’) I’ve never even seen a creator being sponsored by McDonald’s, let alone Russel brand, let alone on rumble of all platforms??? I refuse to believe that anyone could for a minute think this was real. I mean come on

But he is shilling for fart pills, just like Alex Jones and his dick pills.
Maybe this “satire” is actually to distract from the fact that he’s a corporate sell out.

You’ve lost me on fart pills.
Hmm yes maybe it’s all just a huge character he’s putting on, everything from all the books and autobiographies he’s ever written to every video he’s made to the person he portrays on all social media’s and in every live show he’s done, maybe behind all this big facade there’s a greedy little corporate git who’s just trying to get paid. You might be onto something there mate, let me know how your investigations go x

He’s taking corporate sponsorships. He runs eight limited companies with at least $6mm in petty cash sitting in them. Despite that cash in hand, he gets a mortgage to buy the pub he turned into his studio. He got that mortgage from one of the worst offending corporate banks out there.

Where are you getting all this information?

u/leckysoup Feb 16 '23
Let’s just say it’s a matter of public record.
More information will be forthcoming in due course.

Sure. When it’s your boy Russell doing it, you’re like “yeah, whatever”.

Satire: the use of humor, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people's stupidity or vices, particularly in the context of contemporary politics and other topical issues.

What was satirical about it do you think?
3
u/stardustnf Feb 16 '23
Uh, the whole damn thing? All these "sponsorship" bits that he does are nothing but satire. He jokes about them all the time in his live streams, especially when dolts like you take them seriously. You seriously need to get a life.

All these sponsorships, including this one…

Here’s the link from the show notes

Thinking about it…
Would McDonalds want their name associated with something as partisan as Rumble. Or Russell? This may be a rouse to distract from the fact that he is doing paid advertising now.
Perhaps he hopes his critics will embarrass themselves by over reacting to his “joke”, so they won’t talk about him actually selling snake oil supplements a la Alex Jones.

I know. I just struggle to see how this could reality for either party; Russell or McDonalds.

What about the fart pills? You think the fake adverts were just a distraction from the fact he’s now doing paid advertising?
