This man doesn't actually meaningfully believe anything that he says. That said, what he is saying here is true.
A broken Nazi Russian asset asshole clock is right once a day
Trump has actually said critical stuff of Putin lately, maybe Tucker got a bit of marching orders to stir shit up?
Whhaattttt?
That website is an op
Please elaborate or I’ll presume you’re an op against a general strike
What makes you say that?
Stating the obvious to hoard in people... While still being a fascist himself. Who could have seen this coming...
It's something all the right wing grifters will realize at some point.
These people have no purpose if Trump forces all the news networks in the country to say whatever he wants. He no longer requires any of their services as mouthpieces.
I think Charlie Kirk ironically would be the first one to balk at the supression of leftist rhetoric.
Without opposition looking to make him look like an asshat while he thinks he's making them look like an asshat, these pundits lose their 'edge'. They have nothing to rant against, and without ranting, what's their draw, how do they make a living being right wing assholes that don't actually do anything or have to take accountability for anything?
Holy shit I agree with Tucker Carlson?
Guess someone forgot to send tucker his check.
"Finally! I've finished my kill-bot. Come, gather round, as I unveil it to the world"
"But Professor Killington"
"Yes, adorable, one-legged, orphan Timmy?"
"Why did you make a kill-bot?"
"Well, so it would indiscriminately murder anything and everything that moves, of course"
"But professor, that sounds dangerous"
"Don't be a fucking retard Timmy. I know what I'm doing"
"O-okay Professor"
"Now everyone gather round as I turn on the killbot for the very first time, and be amazed as it makes me pancakes"
flips switch
"OH NO, STOP, STOP, STOP KILLING ME, KILL-BOT OH MY GOD, MY SPLEEN, OH, IF ONLY SOMEBODY COULD HAVE FORRSEEN THIS TERRIBLE TURN OF EVENTS".
Timmy would go on to run for Congress on an anti killbot policy. He would lose to a bigoted blowhard who insisted on the right for all people to own killbots to make them pancakes.
Interesting. I don't know who he is, but based on (part of) the Russian shopping video I saw of him yesterday, where he was excited at what everything a Russian supermarket has to offer, finally cumming into his pants after finding that Russia has bread, I wouldn't expect much.
I only saw a clip of that. In the piece, did he ever disclose how much a typical Russian makes in a year?
Nope. Too busy fucking a dark rye bagel.
Someone did detail that information and response and he had spent like more than a Russian makes in a month at that grocery store, which is geared for the Bourgeois there. Not a working man's store.
The best part of that video is how he is amazed at coin locked shopping carts. Clearly he has never been in a grocery store.
OMG they have Whole Foods in Russia?!?
Awesome. Thanks.
Kudos for the rapid fire response too.
I was just thinking this is the perfect meme in this context.
Not only a good point... He dared to go against supreme leader, despite his much he normally licks boots, and when other more moderate people are licking boot about all this
I'm confused, but happy to see it.
Ugh Fucker Carlson making sense. I hate this world.
If he ends up getting Kirked over this, I'll gladly nudge him over the line to "on the right side of history". Won't mourn his passing though, he's peddled enough bullshit to make himself irredeemable as decent human being.
I wouldn’t nudge him
What fucking bizarro world have I stepped into where fash-lite bowtie man is making sense
Tucker's a smart guy with a clever tongue. He can lay out an exhaustive, reasoned, rationalist case for basic civil liberties. And then he can come back a day later to lay out an exhaustive, reasoned, rationalist case against them.
Just depends on which side of the line he's standing. Dude's a talk radio mercenary. He'll fight for whichever side he thinks will turn him a profit.
Tucker’s a smart guy with a clever tongue.
No, Tucker Carlson, the guy who tells idiots what they want to hear.
He was full strength fashy before 2021. He was the one floating a lot of these ideas to see how they play, like locking up your political rivals or news media.
I suspect that it turned out that Carlson's mean words towards his superiors at Fox News did him in more than anything. They held grudges after being called dumb fucking cunts or whatever and took the excuse to ask him.
He's honestly been right about very niche things for a while, sometimes for the wrong reasons, and never a good person. But he's sometimes right
I've noticed this happening more often than I would have imagined, actually. There are some times where Trump or one of his sycophants will make an off-the-cuff remark that is actually, genuinely, a good and logical thing to do. it doesn't happen that often, but it does happen. The bizarre part is that when that idea fails to manifest media coverage detailing how bad it is, they just... give up on it. It's like the conservative political philosophy has completely morphed into being a contrarian force against liberalism, in spite of whatever their personal beliefs might be. If democrats are ambivalent on an issue, so are they.
I am floored that I agree with that piece of shit, but… here we are.
What a weird time to live in.
Tucker is scared because kimmel and other media personalities are getting nuked. That's his money flow at risk, nothing else.
Ya know there a principle I am rather fond of, doing good for bad reasons is still good. While Carlson may be a shitstain undeserving of his kneecaps and while he may be doing a good thing for bad reasons, well I'll take what I can get. We are effectively shrieking into the void like the banshee outside of my window, nobody hears us but they do hear Carlson.
Probably, but it's smart to take allies where you can find them. A lot of right-wingers pay attention to Carlson, and his stance is hitting where left-leaning sources have no pull.
While his general rhetoric may be aligned, his engagement is driven by people that want validation against those "elite libs" that are saying things they don't like.
Without those voices in the room, even if there's an audience that agrees with his words, that audience doesn't need him anymare.
Similar thing for me recently. Learned musk is against collective shouts censorship. Made me really evaluate why I was against it. Still against it. Censorship limits freedom of speech but so does deplatforming the censors. Weird times
Sure, but sometimes the enemy of your enemy is still your enemy. I agree with this one thing that Tucker said. I vehemently disagree with pretty much every single other thing he says, or has said.
He just realized that he is NOT SAFE
Good for Tucker. Rare time I say it.
Holy shit, Tucker dares to go against Trump.
Huh, whatever happened to loving how things are done in Putinist Russia, Tucker?
I Hate This Timeline.
I agreed with Cucker Tarlson and Marge Sporktoes on things! Wtf???
So now he cares about such principles...
They keep wanting a civil war between leftwingers and rightwingers, but seems more likely they will have a civil war amongst the rightwingers themselves. 🤦♂️
