But after The Mail on Sunday newspaper wrote about the calls, thousands of irate callers flooded the BBC switchboard and the incident became a political storm. Brand was forced into an apology, but Greenslade said that incident didn’t affect Brand’s popularity among fans as it played into his “bad boy” image. With those videos, Monbiot said, Brand engaged young and disenfranchised voters in a way that actual politicians had struggled to do. Over time, the tenor of the Brand’s videos changed, and became filled with conspiracies and conservative talking points, including vaccine skepticism. Throughout his career, Brand — a self-described narcissist — had sought attention and on YouTube, it was right-wing talking points that got the most likes and shares.

The fabricated image, dated May 11, shows The Guardian’s masthead, Monbiot’s author headshot and the headline: "I've caught Covid for the 23rd time despite having had dozens of boosters (I've lost count). Monbiot regularly writes columns about the environment, politics and social issues for The Guardian. Since it began to circulate, I’ve been called any number of things, including an ‘idiot’ for believing what the headline claims I believe. Coupled with the conspiracy theories surrounding Covid-19 and the vaccines used against it, this politics has become pretty toxic”. Guardian columnist George Monbiot did not write an article about catching COVID-19 23 times after receiving “dozens of booster” vaccinations.
