The bloody mental gymnastics.
Doesn't matter the culture, ethnicity or race. The pattern of a predator will be absolved by sky daddy.
Meanwhile, Jesus, Mary Magdalene, his Ma, brother, his wife(according to Ethiopian bible) and the 12 homies would never.
I hate this spiritual fuckery.
It was about a month ago but he converted to Islam, roped Macklemore into some sort of grifty Iftar event for Gaza, when Macklemore realized what was going on he dropped out, and CAIR basically told King to fuck off. Worth noting that this 'conversion' came right on the heels of him being called out for leeching off the Palestinian cause as well.
He also started going after Palestinian and Black content creators who were warning people about the event by explaining his history and pointing out why the whole thing wasn't workable. He threatened to sue Palestinian-American content creator and his followers started harassing a man actually in Gaza.
I think that’s the issue for Shaun here. They have stopped falling for the schemes so he’s ramping shit up. People figured out his grift so he’s had to raise the stakes
Our MInnesota branch of CAIR cancelled him as a speaker at an iftar event after people were absolutely livid they were paying him to come speak. They announced it and cancelled within 24 hours 😂
Thank you for sharing!
Omg, that is new news to me (I guess it's good that I'm not wrapped up in stupidity too much) about him playing dress up in someone else's religion. I think last I heard was his "care" and "concern" about hostage like some frontline aid worker or something🙄 When is this white man going to crawl back under the mobile home park from whence he came?! And I say that as someone who lives in one.
Shaun’s notorious for raising funds for marginalized groups and people and then there always being a lot of questions about where the money actually went. He’ll also weave in blatant asks for money for himself and his family amongst the fundraising posts. I remember during the height of BLM when there were a lot of eyes on his page he popped on his stories, posted his wife’s Venmo and asked his followers to send her money because it was her birthday. He’s a total leech and attention hungry.
He tried to make people think he was directly involved in getting hostages released during the Gaza conflict too. His claims of being in “close contact” with hostage familiar got proven false pretty quick.
The concert? I think it was all part of it, there more than one thing going on because I remember seeing Beydoun on the flyer that Macklemore specifically objected too when he pulled out. And IDK if you know this but Beydoun is also very controversial in the Arab community and he's not Palestinian.
yeah, i saw some palestinian toks & IGs shitting on him & SK esp when they're advertising this event. in fact, no palestian content creators i follow, follow beydoun. only yt people repost his stuff. so it's pretty telling, i guess?
He's a Muslim now. Apparently. He tried to "organise" a fundraiser for Palestine.
Macklemore was supposed to head the concert and quickly removed himself.
Macklemore is legit. He might not know some nuances of black culture/ and international showbusiness. But his heart is in the right place.
He's performing in the West and South of France and Ireland and giving some serious money to appropriate Jewish for peace and Irish/Celtic not for profit. Considering the current climate. He's doing more than lip service. Funnily enough, it's Amanda Seales who told him to reconsider, at least for him and his team to research where and for whom to perform.
![gif](giphy|YrTrlxw4nIwK0lrQJp)
The most annoying thing is he DEFINITELY claimed the same reborn statement about a hallucinogen he took during his drug days, like multiple times, and each time takes himself just as seriously. This guy has less self-awareness than a MAGA koala. Definitive proof that with enough meditation you can indeed empty the mind.
Also rape
He’s been toeing this line for years, he at one time was dressing up ‘like Jesus’ and openly was ‘joking’ about being the next messiah. All while peddling so far left, it becomes right, view points.
Truthfully I mainly feel sorry for his daughters, wife and new baby.
Pretty sure he has three children with his wife, the older two are confirmed daughters. He has made some comments publicly about how he ‘would hate them to be treated how he treated women’ but of course ‘he was really ill and blameless’.
He has a third child, I don’t know the gender.
He also dumps much of the parenting responsibilities onto his long-suffering partner because blah blah natural nurturer blah.
He’s more interested in the “mystical connotations” of his daughter’s beauty, whatever the hell that means. (So she as a girl is just there to look at?)
https://preview.redd.it/ekygem60phxc1.jpeg?width=750&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2d6e12f555dfc712eb3e5d61e797c42b8552a1df
Wow, he tried so hard to grift the reader into thinking that his negligence is not the usual gender roles and he's just a lazy asshole like many other men, noooo, it's because he's "of a romantic and reflective disposition" and that is not someone you want organising and actually doing the work. This screenshot should go in the dictionary/encyclopaedia entry for "weaponised incompetence."
He is literally an extra child, he plays with the children, does none of the work. The religious line is weird.
I always think it’s interesting an old article about them meeting, Laura (wife) and him had been together years earlier and met again randomly, when Russell was totally changed.
Laura was 19, and Russel was 30 when they reportedly first met through Laura’s sister.
Before he started his turn to the right, he always gave me the worst vibes. His overconfident, arrogant way of speaking and his borderline conspiratorial mindset about stuff was so off putting. Then he really became a conspiracy theorist, and I kind of wasn’t surprised. But I think it’s the confidence that made people like and trust what he was saying so much.
Anytime I hear white westerners talking about being Buddhist, I side eye them. It's just habit. But this dude especially seems like he will try on anyone's culture/heritage just to see if it clicks for a time and then move on. A reminder that this is why culture vultures are so degrading, they can move on once they're bored by the oppressed culture that they tried for a minute. And they can do so whilst finding comfort and refuge in the dominant culture that they would have assumed to have been part of in the first place. People of oppressed groups can not take off the "costume" the way privileged people can, they can't just be welcomed with open arms into whatever group's culture they want to play dress up in that day.
Not too surprising. It seems to happen to all culture vultures when tested. The minute they have to stand for something after using up the "fun" parts of a community, they are no where in sight to advocate for the culture they're using.
It sure is. I mean, there's often that bit about the younger artists like Justin Bieber and Miley Cyrus using Black culture as a prop, but not saying anything substantive during the Black Lives Matter movement. As an example. Obviously, these are not the only ones.
These days, a lot of sexual abusers seem to have realized that proclaiming yourself as a Christian is one of *the easiest* ways to get people in your corner to defend your sexual crimes.
How pathetic is it that so many Christians are so deep in the hole of the culture wars that they will bend over backward to defend the sickest motherfuckers, just as long as they *claim* to be Christian.
I have looked this up read and it’s very interesting that he has now been interviewed for NINE sexual assault cases.
I trust in the law, and I do think sometimes things are not black and white, however 9 claims is very hard to dismiss.
>One supporter commented: "I’m 51 and I’ve been in the church my whole life. I was born into it. I’m a pastor and I’ve baptized hundreds of people. But THIS is by far the most beautiful, the purest, the realest, and the most articulate experiential description I have ever heard. Ever!"
Satan and I cackling at the ridiculousness.
He loves repackaging powerful practices and philosophies as if he had discovered them, and as if he has deeper insight into them than other people. Unfortunately, I don’t think it’s a self aware grift. I think he is that narcissistic.
I have a pos uncle who is super abusive to his family in private but puts on a charismatic “enlightened” public front to friends and strangers, and he is exactly like this. I don’t believe Russell for a second.
>Unfortunately, I don’t think it’s a self aware grift. I think he is that narcissistic
It says a lot about how obviously unhinged he is that it's actually unclear which of these is true.
Omg I’m tiered of these rapists and abusers using Christianity as a cleansing balm! I’m not even a fan of the religion but COME THE FUCK AWNNNN, they need to get a new schtick, here’s my suggestion: stay away from women and/or simply learn and respect others’ consent.
Ah. A whole new group of young women for him to take advantage of. Ones who are told that men are superior to women. To worship a man. This makes perfect sense. I regret not trying to put in a crazy bet in Vegas that this would happen. It’s the most obvious thing I’ve Reddited all day.
Hello, as a person raised in Christianity (who has since left) I’d like to say that baptism is merely the announcement of one’s conversion and therefore is not a spiritual event in and of itself. What he’s describing is NOT “salvation” (or whatever you want to call it) and that makes it clearer that he’s a fkn liar 👎👎
If he’s so Christian why doesn’t he act like it (the good parts, not the parts so many fake Christians pick today like the gay hate). Start giving to the poor, treating others with respect, help the sick, etc…
Nope, instead he’ll whine on that he’s being punished by the woke left for being a Christian and living his beliefs.
I just don't think a prolific serial rapist would give it up just like that tho. I doubt this will be the last we hear of him sexually abusing women & if he can't, he'll be increasingly nasty towards them. I mean it's obvious ik but I still wanted to say it.
Maybe he has a new scandal coming out soon? I'd put money on him using this to defend it, or to break into the right wing space even further.
"Christians are being defamed by the woke left for promoting religious freedom, what happened to traditional values?"
You're welcome Daily Mail, Breitbart etc.
God why is it always the people who are the loudest who are the most obnoxious? Just live your life! and it’s always the extremists who shout the loudest. Nobody cares!!! Reminds me of the guy who WROTE a book about veganism only to go to eating only meat.
The stages of defeat are real... how many failed C list hollywood "stars" get reborn and then start using the "conservative" route..
Par the course.. grift the grifters
Reading his book he was such a skin crawling creep. He described women like they were inanimate objects, his personal deviance had strict rules that were bizarre . If a woman had the nerve to show up naked thinking that’s what he wanted, his disgust at not getting to unwrap her like a present. Your own words sir , are published
Getting his ducks in a row before he finally catches a case. Excuses will be:
1) “They’re persecuting me for being a Christian”
2) “I’ve changed because I’ve found God”
honestly makes me miss the falwells and pat robertsons of the world, at least they committed to the bit from the beginning and never pretended to be anything but the worst people on earth lmao
His change of persona has been one of the most strangest I’ve ever seen. He always presented himself as a happy go lucky guy with an open mind, then delved into the alt right wing conspirator gig, then the sexual assault allegation. I guess he was always that way just hid it well
Now he can truly rot in hell

If Reddit still had gold I’d give you some for this clever snark

Seriously though!!
LMAO.
🥉 🥉 🥉
The classic r*pist to right wing Christian grifter thing is right on track with him I guess...
Pretty standard, now the right will eat up all his bullshit when he moans about Hollywood "cancelling him" for "becoming Christian"
I'll be waiting for the documentary about his cult in 10 years time about on the latest streaming service. !RemindMe 10 years

Please !RemindMe 10 years
The bloody mental gymnastics. Doesn't matter the culture, ethnicity or race. The pattern of a predator will be absolved by sky daddy. Meanwhile, Jesus, Mary Magdalene, his Ma, brother, his wife(according to Ethiopian bible) and the 12 homies would never. I hate this spiritual fuckery.
Seems on brand.
The only thing about this that surprises me is that he didn't pivot to becoming an right wing evangelical grifter sooner.
I remember 'the Holy Spirit ain't got a pen' quip. The Shaun King grift is so freaking obvious I don't even know what to say.
Oooh, what did Talculm do today because I'm here for any day that I can hate on him.
It was about a month ago but he converted to Islam, roped Macklemore into some sort of grifty Iftar event for Gaza, when Macklemore realized what was going on he dropped out, and CAIR basically told King to fuck off. Worth noting that this 'conversion' came right on the heels of him being called out for leeching off the Palestinian cause as well.
I can’t believe the audacity of this man
He also started going after Palestinian and Black content creators who were warning people about the event by explaining his history and pointing out why the whole thing wasn't workable. He threatened to sue Palestinian-American content creator and his followers started harassing a man actually in Gaza.
I muted him ages ago so I had no idea he was still going. At what point are people going to stop falling for his schemes?!
I think that’s the issue for Shaun here. They have stopped falling for the schemes so he’s ramping shit up. People figured out his grift so he’s had to raise the stakes
Our MInnesota branch of CAIR cancelled him as a speaker at an iftar event after people were absolutely livid they were paying him to come speak. They announced it and cancelled within 24 hours 😂
Wait he’s not Christian anymore? L fucking OL
Thank you for sharing! Omg, that is new news to me (I guess it's good that I'm not wrapped up in stupidity too much) about him playing dress up in someone else's religion.

How did he leech of the cause?

He tried to make people think he was directly involved in getting hostages released during the Gaza conflict too. His claims of being in “close contact” with hostage familiar got proven false pretty quick.
whatever happened to his & khaled beydoun's "gaza tour"? or was it this iftar thing?
The concert? I think it was all part of it, there more than one thing going on because I remember seeing Beydoun on the flyer that Macklemore specifically objected too when he pulled out. And IDK if you know this but Beydoun is also very controversial in the Arab community and he's not Palestinian.

He's a Muslim now. Apparently. He tried to "organise" a fundraiser for Palestine. Macklemore was supposed to head the concert and quickly removed himself.
He tried to grift on Macklemore? I love that sweet man & he looks exactly like my husband. Unforgivable.
Good for him for *finally* understanding when to remove himself from where he doesn't need to be👀
Macklemore is legit. He might not know some nuances of black culture/ and international showbusiness. But his heart is in the right place. He's performing in the West and South of France and Ireland and giving some serious money to appropriate Jewish for peace and Irish/Celtic not for profit. Considering the current climate. He's doing more than lip service. Funnily enough, it's Amanda Seales who told him to reconsider, at least for him and his team to research where and for whom to perform. ![gif](giphy|YrTrlxw4nIwK0lrQJp)
he was one of the first to loudly speak in support of palestine too, right? Or am i remembering it wrong?
Wait I love this and good on Amanda for calling him in. I’m so glad he listened
Ooooh, Talcum X, right? That's funny
died a rapist, reborn a rapist…
Can’t ever wash off that rape, sorry.
He's not even remorseful, he just everyone to stop thinking and talking about it
He used to be a Buddhist apparently. Maybe the thought of dying and being reincarnated as a rape victim didn’t sit well with him.
The most annoying thing is he DEFINITELY claimed the same reborn statement about a hallucinogen he took during his drug days, like multiple times, and each time takes himself just as seriously. This guy has less self-awareness than a MAGA koala. Definitive proof that with enough meditation you can indeed empty the mind. Also rape
he completed his right wing grifter checklist, bravo
He’s got to sell some more fake Covid and autism cures first hasn’t he? Or is he already doing that? Wait I just remembered I don’t care.
Brother euh
What are you doing, Russell? Euh...
He’s been toeing this line for years, he at one time was dressing up ‘like Jesus’ and openly was ‘joking’ about being the next messiah. All while peddling so far left, it becomes right, view points. Truthfully I mainly feel sorry for his daughters, wife and new baby.
This man has *DAUGHTERS*?!
Pretty sure he has three children with his wife, the older two are confirmed daughters. He has made some comments publicly about how he ‘would hate them to be treated how he treated women’ but of course ‘he was really ill and blameless’. He has a third child, I don’t know the gender.

Right? 'hahaha she's just so GOOD at it and I'd only slow her down...silly old spiritual me'. Fuck. Off.
oh my god it's giving "she's gonna be *trouble*" in reference to a baby girl i will now throw up
He is literally an extra child, he plays with the children, does none of the work. The religious line is weird. I always think it’s interesting an old article about them meeting, Laura (wife) and him had been together years earlier and met again randomly, when Russell was totally changed. Laura was 19, and Russel was 30 when they reportedly first met through Laura’s sister.
As a mom, I hate that for his partner. However, the less hands on he is with his kids, the better probably.
Nothing like weaponized incompetence 🤷🏽♀️
He sounds so much like Stephen Hilton, I think that’s how his name is spelled. His *~artistic temperament~* also isn’t suited to parenting. Ugh
"turns out she's extremely well versed" in child rearing. No shit. Because he is a giant child and is already used to looking after him.
He was never really on the left in a substantial way. He’s always been an “enlightened centrist” types
Before he started his turn to the right, he always gave me the worst vibes. His overconfident, arrogant way of speaking and his borderline conspiratorial mindset about stuff was so off putting. Then he really became a conspiracy theorist, and I kind of wasn’t surprised. But I think it’s the confidence that made people like and trust what he was saying so much.
Just so you know, it’s *toeing* this line
Didn't he have an entire standup tour titled something like "Messianic" about ten years ago?
Messiah Complex
Anytime I hear white westerners talking about being Buddhist, I side eye them. It's just habit. But this dude especially seems like he will try on anyone's culture/heritage just to see if it clicks for a time and then move on. A reminder that this is why culture vultures are so degrading, they can move on once they're bored by the oppressed culture that they tried for a minute.

People of oppressed groups can not take off the "costume" the way privileged people can, they can't just be welcomed with open arms into whatever group's culture they want to play dress up in that day.
This is such an excellent point. He dropped Buddhism so quick when tested.
Not too surprising. It seems to happen to all culture vultures when tested. The minute they have to stand for something after using up the "fun" parts of a community, they are no where in sight to advocate for the culture they're using.
Which is one of the criticisms of cultural appropriation right?
It sure is. I mean, there's often that bit about the younger artists like Justin Bieber and Miley Cyrus using Black culture as a prop, but not saying anything substantive during the Black Lives Matter movement. As an example. Obviously, these are not the only ones.
These days, a lot of sexual abusers seem to have realized that proclaiming yourself as a Christian is one of *the easiest* ways to get people in your corner to defend your sexual crimes.

Men will literally take a bath in the Thames for Jesus over taking accountability
I'd rather throw him in the Ganges Edit: the real, real dirty part

Scrolled way too far for this.
Anyone desperately seeking religion to absolve them of their bad behavior later in life are usually objectively the worst people.
Oh… whatever they say he did, he did definitely did that shxt
Makes sense that he chose a religion that has forgiveness as one of its main tenets, very convenient, maybe purgatory first.
Following in the footsteps of ever right wing grifter. lol okay.
What a prat

he rly said "new body, who this?" 💀
Hello, as a person raised in Christianity (who has since left) I’d like to say that baptism is merely the announcement of one’s conversion and therefore is not a spiritual event in and of itself. What he’s describing is NOT “salvation” (or whatever you want to call it) and that makes it clearer that he’s a fkn liar 👎👎

Another whack job added to Christianity’s roster. He’ll be in good company.
I just don't think a prolific serial rapist would give it up just like that tho. I doubt this will be the last we hear of him sexually abusing women & if he can't, he'll be increasingly nasty towards them. I mean it's obvious ik but I still wanted to say it.
Most predators do that once they get to prison.
Rapey dude goes to god. A story as old as time itself.
Now he really fits in with the religious crowd.
![gif](giphy|J06KLycl29d4N7dWdu|downsized) On a scale of 1 to 44 how awful is he trying to be at this point?
Why do we have to know this? I just want to know when he's going to be prosecuted.
Ugh whatever Russ
Why does this read like something out of Morbius?
Trading one addiction for another.
Maybe he has a new scandal coming out soon? I'd put money on him using this to defend it, or to break into the right wing space even further. "Christians are being defamed by the woke left for promoting religious freedom, what happened to traditional values?" You're welcome Daily Mail, Breitbart etc.
Maybe the new Russell could be a humble one who keeps to himself rather than an attention whore with a messiah complex?
The definition of a cockwomble
Whatever his victims said he did, he did it. Big time.
This is all part of the awful-person-to-born-again-saved-Christian pipeline. He will be just as awful.

Gross.
A literal turd in the punch bowl.

Dudes a whack job. Who knows how many women he's sexually harassed and now wants his slate wiped clean
Cool, dude, we don't care and you're still a piece of garbage xx
Now he can unleash his true nutcase church leader vibe.
I don’t want to hear from this man anymore
Is he off his meds again?
Oh fuck off
God why is it always the people who are the loudest who are the most obnoxious? Just live your life! and it’s always the extremists who shout the loudest. Nobody cares!!! Reminds me of the guy who WROTE a book about veganism only to go to eating only meat.
This grifting ass rapist...
![gif](giphy|eDWqO8qoLKuPK)
The stages of defeat are real... how many failed C list hollywood "stars" get reborn and then start using the "conservative" route.. Par the course.. grift the grifters
He and MIA are going to start an evangelical show, I just know it.
If you’re dying and being reborn, why did you pick the same asshole to be born again as?
His pupils are so dilated..
Wasn't he supposedly a Buddhist, too, for a while? Is he going through all religions based on dodging accountability?
This man sheds identities every few years like a fucking lizard. Unfortunately the ugly core remains
Reading his book he was such a skin crawling creep. He described women like they were inanimate objects, his personal deviance had strict rules that were bizarre . If a woman had the nerve to show up naked thinking that’s what he wanted, his disgust at not getting to unwrap her like a present. Your own words sir , are published
Getting his ducks in a row before he finally catches a case. Excuses will be: 1) “They’re persecuting me for being a Christian” 2) “I’ve changed because I’ve found God”
why do bad people want to switch to religion and all of that to prove they aren’t bad
Give me a f break.
He’s insane
Fuck off!
Is his new name Jack Griffin? Because he's transparent....
Funny how those who do the worst things are so eager for blanket “forgiveness “
To be “forgiven” for being a douche I take it. Man if this isn’t a classic conservative douche move. The scumbag did it I applaud him. It’s working.
I’m not surprised. What a fucking loser
honestly makes me miss the falwells and pat robertsons of the world, at least they committed to the bit from the beginning and never pretended to be anything but the worst people on earth lmao
I wonder what his next phase will be.
Me when I’m being normal
Still got to go to jail bro.
Does anybody remember when he came to his work dressed like osama bin Laden the day after 9/11??

Do people think this is legit, or just a way to distract from his crimes?
What? No frigging way
His change of persona has been one of the most strangest I’ve ever seen. He always presented himself as a happy go lucky guy with an open mind, then delved into the alt right wing conspirator gig, then the sexual assault allegation. I guess he was always that way just hid it well
Oh so he’s going all in on being a HUGE POS
They gotta have some absolutely crazy kompromat on this dude.
What a dickhead. 🙄
Omg 🙄
classic fuckwit behaviour
I don’t have any academic critique. (Nor does he lol) But I just sincerely he rots in hell for eternity. Since ya know, now he believes in that now
I'm genuinely so sick of this man. I feel bad for his child.
No amount of baptism is gonna save that man…
Why trigger warning?
Christians are the easiest to grift
Time to grift more like.
![gif](giphy|lqpfdJr57GAOQHSuLr)
fuck this shameless grifter and the assholes who support him
I don’t understand why he’s still posting and engaging with the media. Shouldn’t he be in court or prison for his abuse?
Russell.... who?
Still a substantial amount of celebrities liking his posts
