The left often attacks Tucker Carlson as a demagogue, but I find that he is mostly on target. This infuriates the Left, as his audience dwarfs their mainstream media outlets, including the sought-after younger viewer demographics.
This spells trouble for Democrats, who have been able to pull the wool over the eyes of younger voters for decades (myself included, in my teens and 20s, with a very brief relapse 10 years ago). Most young, college-educated people haven’t experienced the real world of taxes, inflation, affirmative action, and other challenges of adult life. The Biden administration’s incompetence and wokeness at all costs have thrown cold water on their idealism and naivety.
That said, it appears that Tucker has had an epiphany spurred on by a far-reaching “equity” policy introduced by Biden last week.
I welcome Carlson’s critique of this disgraceful and discriminatory policy, but it’s a little late to make a goal-line stand. Fifty-plus years too late. Racial and gender preference policy is now decades old, and Biden’s latest ‘equity’ policy is just the final result of this collective idiocy.
I submit that my hometown of Rochester, New York, was at the forefront of this movement in the 1960s. Then Rochester-headquartered Xerox Corp. was ‘woke’ well before it was fashionable. In fact, founding CEO Joseph C. Wilson directed Xerox managers to hire unqualified minorities in 1968. Remember the Left’s canard that told us that all affirmative action recipients are qualified? Wilson’s memo disproves that lie.
Extreme “Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion” policies were a long time in the making, much like a slow-moving train wreck.

It seems that the left wants us to descend into a bunch of warring tribes.
“warring tribes”
The Left will loose. Take that to the bank.
(The left often attacks Tucker Carlson as a demagogue, but I find that he is mostly on target.)
True and True.
“It seems that the left wants us to descend into a bunch of warring tribes.”
...and the Neocons think we can defeat China and Russia to RULE THE WORLD with this crap going on. That’s what angers me the most - the Democrats wage TOTAL WAR on the producers in this country, horrifically divide it socially, bankrupt it (with plenty of help from the GOP, by the way), gut the military, and then decide that we are going to RUN THE WORLD.
At least other Empire Builders, like the UK, Hitler, and Imperial Japan knew enough to have their home-front in order before trying to TAKE OVER THE WORLD! Talk about a bunch of TOTAL IDIOTS here.
If we have any cities left after this crap, I’ll be shocked!
We are late for sure but so what?
Anyone who follows the preference issue closely knows that racial preferences will not go away without a relentless (and often violent) fight from the left.
Again so what? If these aren't the thing to fight for or the hill to die on then what is?
Let’s go Brandonski.
A White man’s worst enemy are Fem/Woke Whites. Not Blacks, not Browns, but wealthy,Liberal-Leftist Whites.
Biden’s new installation of “equity teams” at every federal agency is far more than just preferential hiring, and more malignant. It is the equivalent of Soviet “political officers” at every level, to monitor and insure compliance with the party’s agenda. As it is applied to the executive branch, it is being done by executive order, and will not need congressional or judicial approval. Remember his attempt to create a government oversight department of disinformation. This is the same idea only in spades.
THE WRATH OF THE AWAKENED SAXON
by Rudyard Kipling
It was not part of their blood,
It came to them very late,
With long arrears to make good,
When the Saxon began to hate.
They were not easily moved,
They were icy — willing to wait
Till every count should be proved,
Ere the Saxon began to hate.
Their voices were even and low.
Their eyes were level and straight.
There was neither sign nor show
When the Saxon began to hate.
It was not preached to the crowd.
It was not taught by the state.
No man spoke it aloud
When the Saxon began to hate.
It was not suddently bred.
It will not swiftly abate.
Through the chilled years ahead,
When Time shall count from the date
That the Saxon began to hate.
We’re already a bunch of warring tribes, except the biggest tribe still hasn’t noticed or responded, so the other tribes are completely emboldened.
Well said.
Propagandist you show your behind once again. This article wasn’t about Ukraine and your jihad against “neocons”.
That’s exactly what they want... And then government will need to declare full control... Viola... Communism...
Count the number of people who still wear masks in public, and note their gender and race.
Then calculate the percentage of Mask Clingers™ who are beneficiaries of any Federal "racial and gender equity" policies and programs.
Is your calculation > 95% ?
Good for Tucker.
“Propagandist you show your behind once again. This article wasn’t about Ukraine and your jihad against “neocons”.”
Your support of the Neocon Agenda BLINDS you to the fact that this country is in NO CONDITION to rule the world. The Neocons will learn that FACT one way or the other. My hope is that having the world destroyed is NOT part of their ‘journey to reality’, but I do CLEARLY understand that others really don’t give a crap as to what happens in the end, all they want is the power to rule the world.
I hope so. It seems like they have been winning election after election since 2018. Just yesterday, they won in New Hampshire and Virginia and has a radical Supreme Court candidate in Wisconsin which could take the republican majority on the state Supreme Court. The point is, we used to win special elections easily and now we are losing them all over the country. Something is wrong and we can blame cheating cuz it feels good. But it’s about getting our side to show up at the polls.
The GOP is very uninspiring.
