Russel Brand is one of the very, VERY few anti-establisment leftists who actually went yoooo wait a minute when the establishment coopted his language and goals, and recognizes that many of his peers have become the same useful idiots a lot of the hawkish right wingers were in the coldwar and 9/11.
He is, a dyed in the wool anti-establisment socialist. He is also, very perceptive and very fair minded, and is arguably one of the very few leftists that can generously and accurately describe trump's ascension. That is to say, he is one of the only consistent and principled progressives left on this earth.
He's not principled. Read his biography, he's about as unprincipled as you can get.
However, you're right about him being an anti-establishment leftist, and that's most likely why he's speaking out against the WuFlu propaganda. He hates the establishment. Most leftists today are establishment puppets, but Russell Brand is a rare exception.

His principles are a recent development, I'll admit
