Burger King is facing the cancel-culture heat after pulling ads from the platform, Rumble, a right-wing heavy service on which Brand has a weekly show.
A Burger King Boycott is now being called for by many in the public eye.
It came to light last week that Brand is facing multiple rape accusations for a period of time between 2006 and 2013.
The former actor turned show host, and social commentator, Russell Brand is a reported “right-wing extremist”.
In response to the allegations – Burger King, Hello Fresh, and Asos pulled their ads from Rumble in reaction.
Now, supporters like right-wing activist leader Charlie Kirk, and Jordan Peterson are calling for people to stop going to Burger King.
The reaction to the Burger King reaction calls for a boycott of the fast food chain for being “woke” and not promoting free speech.
Matthew Nichols, Pro-Maga responded to the situation on X (formerly Twitter)
“F*** you Burger King. I will never eat your garbage again. Boycott Burger King. Woke corporations suck. Do you agree?”
Kyle Becker, host of the podcast Relentless said:
“Stop supporting un-American companies like Burger King, Hello Fresh, Bud Light, Target, Kohls, Delta, American Airlines, Nike, Starbucks, Amazon, Disney. They hate you. They hate your rights. They hate America. Take your business elsewhere.”
Former Fox News host Dan Bongino turned radio host:
Burger King wants you to “have it your way.” Who knew their “way” was wokeism, censorship & cancel culture. Their burgers are shit any way. Spend your money wisely.
Pyschologist, Jordan Peters also championed a boycott: “That includes@BurgerKing. For those of you who care to know. Maybe eat at the other place. For a while.”
The documentary, Russell Brand: In Plain Sight came out last week and was put together by The Sunday Times, Channel Four, and The Times. It exposed allegations made by multiple women against the former actor.
Brands video answer to the allegations were that his relationships “were always consensual” and that he denies “these very serious criminal allegations.
YouTube has also de-monitized Brand’s channel. Rumble continues to air Brand’s content, standing behind their creator.
The situation calls to mind the Bud Light debacle which saw the brand canceled after they hired a trans-gender spokesperson. Bud Light’s sales are down to abysmal levels after the call for a boycott leveled them.
