Tucker Carlson Steps on his White Supremacist **** Again!

[ReubenSherr]

No, I wouldn't compliment you. But a conversation about all things important would seem to be in order. Are you being open minded about the removal of monuments to those who believed slaves were meant to be lesser men and that God intended it to be so?

Somewhat, but my opinion concerning statues is completely irrelevant.

Tucker has the right to be insulted when a member of Congress says we should "have a dialogue" about vandals trashing statues of our Founding Fathers, and, to the point of this thread, it has nothing to do with racism.

Maybe this is a better example: If Mitch McConnell told a reporter that "We should have a dialogue about trashing statue of Martin Luther King," any political commentator would be completely justified in calling him a coward, or any other name.

 

[ReubenSherr]

Tucker must be amazingly unperceptive, because that was the garbage that was being written for him to recite
It would be more accurate to say 'When the media found out about his chief writer, Tucker let him go'.

Do you have any sourcing that says Tucker knew this guy was posting racist garbage online, and kept him?

Or any evidence that Tucker read this guy's racist garbage on the air?

While you propose this in a unlikely conversation, I agree. Nothing to do with removing monuments to hero's or to to demons, should be done without conversations by the those who live in the communities. My town square should not have a statue of a man who enslaved my great grandfather, calling him a hero.
Or do you have a narrative that makes that an acceptable outcome?

That isn't what I said. I said that Tucker was presented racist material to regurgitate (see the title of this thread). Even though he had writers, Tucker is responsible for the content he spews. The point of this thread was Tucker spews racist garbage. Then, it's found out that his chief writer puts racist and white supremacist ideas on public forums under a fake name.

Can you connect the dots, and see those two items are related?

 

[enderpotato00]

so you accept a lie as truth because it fits your bigoted view of "democrats" as the anti americans. Simple bull**** for simple minds.

Not all democrats, but the mainstream Democrats are

 

[trblmkr]

Seems like you really drunk the kool aid rather than me. Democrats encourage the riots despite a pandemic going on.

The president says there is no pandemic or any reason to pay any attention to the CDC recommendations. Everything is the best. Any where in the world. So what pandemic are you talking about? You must be deep state.

 

[Nickyjo]

He is one of the few people I do try to catch on TV when I want some perspective. I agree with most of his positions and do not see sny racism in the things he says.

You must have missed the part when he said immigration was ruining the country.

 

[calamity]

lol...Tucker Carlson's racist writer--top writer, no less--busted posting racist **** online for years.

Tucker Carlson's top writer quits after secretly posting racist and sexist remarks in online forum - CNN

****ing awesome!

 

[ReubenSherr]

Guys, that is not a racist statement.

Every country in the world has the right to limit immigration, it has nothing to do with anyone's race.

 

[Nickyjo]

Saying that "we should have a dialogue about statues in our society" is validating the will of the people tearing down the statues

++ That is an extraordinary, absurd leap of logic. Like saying that you are concerned about the Floyd incident means you hate cops.

I'm not saying that Duckworth is necessarily "Unpatriotic," but Tucker has a perfect right to feel this way. He criticizes white men and women constantly, on almost every show...Implying that it is inappropriate for a white male to be criticizing a woman of color is ridiculous, it's the left wing playing race politics

++ One of the curious characteristics of our society is that some equate criticism of actions of the government with disloyalty. Tucker seems to subscribe to that theory.

Again, this has nothing to do with my own personal opinion about statues.

Tucker has the right to be upset about a member of Congress suggesting that we listen to both sides of the story regarding vandalizing statues of our First President.

It has nothing to do with racism, the only reason it's an issue, I think, is because the left is purposely using women/minorities/people who are disabled to promote these ideas, so that when the ideas are attacked, liberals can simply play race and/or disability politics without having to answer any political arguments.

To put it another way, I do not think it was a coincidence that this message happened to come from a female, disabled, woman of color

I think Democrats are staging this on purpose, and it's pathetically easy to see through them

 

[ReubenSherr]

That's completely legitimate, I agree 100%. But it has nothing to do with racism.

Sinclair Lewis was communist scum, anyone was a fascist in his mind

Albert Einstein was a socialist so was George Orwell. Better men than you.

No argument with your point. But Carlson said immigration makes the country dirtier, that it is changing the nature of our society. In saying such things, he echoes what was said in previous generations about Irish, Italians and Jews. Tucker makes it about race.

 

[Phys251]

Wrong. Dead wrong. There was no validating, just asking us to talk about the issue. I find it interesting, you and Tucker are against having conversation with people about a sensitive subject.

You also moved the goalpost here. You first said that Duckworth wanted to tear down statues. That was not the case.

I am curious why you don't want to hear a different point-of-view. What is offensive about listening?

Because supporters of fascism never want dialogue. They want to scream their hate everywhere while the rest of us take it in silence.

They are a loud, dying minority. Decent Americans have had enough of that ****.

We have heard this plenty of times but faux news will lose its grip on patriotism soon enough.

When did Trump claim there was no pandemic?

 

[ReubenSherr]

No argument with your point. But Carlson said immigration makes the country dirtier

This was a really poor choice of words, but he meant that sanctuary cities are taking in people who might be unhealthy, ill, etc. - the word "dirtier" was not a reference to anyone's skin color, he meant that cities such as San Francisco weren't vetting people coming in, and these cities are a health hazard

 

[Jonsa]

again, you are full of it. The fringes of the left are as stupid and radical as the fringes on the right. Same animal different coloring. And they are the ones shovelling all kinds of whacked out bull****. The majority that straddles the center of the spectrum generally speaking share way way more than differ.

Dunning Kruger brought about by severe confirmation bias is something that guarantees that facts and reality will not impinge on your worldview.

@Geoist and Rogue Valley

Tucker is criticizing her for not condemning people who tear down statues of George Washington.

It’s tragic that she lost her legs in a war, but that doesn’t mean we need to permit her to encourage defamation of our Founding Fathers. She chose to go into politics, it’s almost like you’re claiming that her war injuries keep her immune from criticism.

You and Tucker can disagree with Duckworth all you want. Nothing wrong with that. The problem is when Tucker makes it personal. It is disrespectful in general, but it is especially disrespectful to say a soldier who sacrificed a third of her body for her country hates her country.

Disrespectful, yes. Racist, no.

Tucker Carlson Accused Of Echoing White Supremacist Talking Points On Fox News | HuffPost



I guess Fox is going to start bleeding sponsors again. I can't believe the two white supremacists, Carlson and Ingram still have jobs there! When is enough going to be enough?

Wrong. Carlson wants to lower the immigration quota, because immigrants wants to destroy America. He talked about immigrants are making America dirtier. There are no "poor choice of words" here. He wasn't talking about illegals.

That’s putting a positive spin on it. But Carlson has also lamented the loss of national identity due to immigration. In doing so, he echoes the laments of the past which followed periods of significant immigration. Our country was significantly changed and imoroved by that migration. As I noted, what Tucker has said is no different than what was said about Irish, Italians, and Jews. Yes, those groups changed the nature of the country, and no doubt many then turned around a generation later and complained about the latest group of newcomers.

As to sanctuary cities, the dirtiness one might find in San Francisco - still a beautiful, clean city I am in frequently - is not from immigrants. It comes from the mentally ill, drug addicted, and poor who can’t afford housing that are on the streets. Mexican illegals, for example, don’t come here to live on the street. They can do that in Mexico.
