Like, first off, Fuck Carlson. Years of damage and bullshit… not forgetting that. He’s never gonna be “on my side”… And I know his pivot is entirely a self interest grift.
But I’m still in favor of it? Like…
He’s not a good person, but he’s respected by the far-right. And still manages a large audience of alt-righters. So, if he’s criticizing Israel, and Trump, and TPUSA… then… maybe that’s good? In the clip he’s openly discussing how Fox news (his former employer) is being deliberately manipulative with their wording… that’s… good?
I’d say, “broken clocks” but I don’t he’s “right” either. I think he has his own purposes that aren’t “good”, but some good may come of it. If that makes sense.
He sees the writing on the wall that young rightists are anti-Israel (for all the wrong reasons) and is positioning himself to be the next anti-establishment right-wing voice in a post Trump era. It’s pure cynical politics.
I look it as though Tucker is just the first rat off the ship trying reestablish himself as the “true republican”. He helped make this monster and now he’s doing this “the right have lost their way” bit after it all went tits up.
oh, no doubt. I’m not giving him any credit. This isn’t some “oh look, Tucker is moving to a more moderate position and we should all give him grace”… No fuck that, Tucker is a self-interersted dickfuck fuckbag.
BUT, him back peddling may deradicalize some of his viewers. If they can connect the dots between “wait a minute, tucker says Fox are liars… maybe I’ve been lied to…” that’s a good first step. I know, putting a lot of hopes in “maga connects the dots”… but I want to believe!
Tucker is using the Liberal strategy. He will point out all the problems correctly. But his solution will be to tell you to vote for JD Vance in 2028. Sheepdogging people back in.
That is how you know you really f*cked up. At this rate, Sheeran is going to end up touring with Kid Rock.
Wanna feel really confused by it? Tucker Carlson is defending Macklemore.
Yeah. That makes me feel yucky.
It’s really weird, right?

It does make some sense, and I agree that whatever Cucker is doing, it’s only to help himself.

But I guess still better than defending genocide.
The bar is in hell.

We need to stop treating Tucker as a garden variety red hat. Unfortunately he is an opportunist who found an easy to manipulate audience
Whatever Tucker does is only meant to make Tucker look good.
Tucker Carlson is just desperate for relevance. That’s what everything he’s done over the past year or so comes down to.
