“Tucker Carlson is pretty much persona non grata here”
Yeah i notice a herd mentality in this forum on occasion where any shade of deviation from the zeitgeist is met by cursing the messenger to the grave. It’s strange the polarization that happens when people of like mind gather and begin to require compliance. It is then that the movement begin a journey towards institutionalization.
I like Tucker Carlson because half the time i disagree with him. That means he’s thinking. And he makes me think too. I may conclude differently than he does but that’s not a reason to discount everything he says or to curse him and his program. Because the other half the time i do agree with him. Hannity, on the other hand, is not bad, but it’s like doing a powerpoint presentation with him. I feel like he’s presenting the talking points from the GOP. I can read them for myself.
I wish we would be more careful with our ideological exclusions here.
Apparently it’s possible to grovel enough to get back into the good graces of the people. Mark Levin is a good example. As far as I can remember Tucker Carlson never called himself a NeverTrumper.
