Woe betide the left-leaning hack who deviates from the narrative about Tucker Carlson. Tucker’s a fascist and any liberal who says otherwise should expect swift cancellation. Witness the troubles at the American Prospect. On Wednesday, the day after Carlson’s abrupt departure from Fox News, that young organ of pained liberalism made the grave error of publishing a piece suggesting Carlson might in fact be a complicated figure. Perhaps – whisper it – a rebellious one. Might this boisterous puncturer of the new elite’s ‘lazy pieties’, this primetime critic of war, free-market capitalism and Big Tech, hold some lessons for the left? Oh dear. Summon the mob. A liberal has made unapproved comments about Mr Carlson.
The irregular commentary was written by Lee Harris and Luke Goldstein. Yes, Carlson could be ‘obsessively nativist’, they said, not least by flirting with Great Replacement theories. But he also had a ‘willingness to challenge and mock ruling elites’ and he won a ‘wide audience’ by doing so. Which begs a question, said these reckless dissenters from Tuckerphobia: ‘Why other nightly news shows that attacked him didn’t raise the same critiques.’ It’s a good question. There was Tucker saying ‘You’d have to be a fool to worship [market capitalism]’ and roasting the DC elites for ‘spending tens of billions of dollars’ on war, while Trevor Noah was fluttering his lashes at war criminal Hillary Clinton and asking: ‘What does it feel like being the boogeyman to the right?’ Instead of mauling Carlson some more, why don’t ‘liberal media outlets like the Guardian’ do some of their own ‘skewering [of] comfortable pieties’, asked Harris and Goldstein?

The establishment does not want their gravy train to end. They hate Tucker the same reason they hate Trump. They hate the TRUTH.
“The establishment does not want their gravy train to end. They hate Tucker the same reason they hate Trump. They hate the TRUTH.”
^THIS
BTTT
They hate Tucker for the same reason that cockroaches hate the light.
Tucker is not even very Conservative.
Carlson was a real threat to the people who run the globalist Council of Foreign Relations and other America hating elitists. Hopefully there are still some wealthy, patriotic people who will give him and others like him a new platform. Sadly Murdoch is now an easily manipulated old man with incompetent sons. A new pro American platform is needed.
Maybe the Obozo/Biden White House has something on the Murdock s and wanted Tucker removed immediately due to his Conservative ideology.
American Thinker has a nice piece talking about how TC was a generic Republican but got red pilled after COVID hit.
Good point. The losers on the Left are bound by their own ilk from saying the truth. They are enslaved.
.
It isn't "paranoia" when, in the span of less than 50 years, more than 15% of the population is illegal aliens.
“The establishment does not want their gravy train to end. They hate Tucker the same reason they hate Trump. They hate the TRUTH.”
Add to this the fact that he’s a happy guy, with a good family and he enjoys his life. They hate that whole scenario - they love the misery and victimhood.
Also, and this is a biggie, he laughs his head off at their insanity. He makes them look as ridiculous as they are.
Agree 100%!
Um, gee...
Because he’s a ‘truthsayer’ and they don’t like the truth?
The left hates. It’s what they do. Hated Bill O’Reilly before him and Brett what’s - his -name before that.
Tucker would make a great POTUS-or would he?
I felt those jollies with O’reily and Hannity when they were at the top of their game. Then realized they’re all out for themselves. The Swami fella is another who’s gab is building his own forum.
The left falls for the gift-of-gabbers. It worked with BJ and the Kenyan. They have no one now. Both were once in a century types. Biden’s a lucky caretaker. Find a governor who’s won twice. Clinton was a failed one. Obama a community organizer. What I’m saying is that the best formula doesn’t always work. We’re screwed.
Speaking of hate. I hear Tucker hates Donald Trump.
Here in CA, we white-skinned folks went from around 75% of the population in 1970 to around 35% today. Imagine that.
The ‘elites’ hate Tucker because Tucker is alive - and they’re dead inside...
