I listened to the entire 3 hour podcast interview between Tucker and Joe Rogan and it was pretty fascinating. They covered everything, including illegal aliens and space aliens. It was a very interesting conversation discussing how he had changed his mind on many things due to the evidence presented to him.
I do wonder about the evidence. What if a lot of it is accurate, and then some ex-military guy tells Carlson about a lot of alien/UFO stuff, but that guy is now agency, and that agency wants to make Carlson look like a nut?
When you listen to the whole thing you get beyond the sound-bite mentality and hear what reasons Tucker has for saying what he does, and you hear Rogan and Tucker struggle to understand/explain the evidence they mention. It’s the kind of evidence-based reasoning the country needs - not just the “Oh that sounds crazy” and then dismissing everything, that we get in the country and - sadly, too often - right here at Free Republic.
I ignore the space alien issue but that’s probably because I don’t know the evidence and have a hard enough time dealing with just the crap I do know. I would not libel somebody else for having more information about a subject than I do. We’ve had WAAAAAY too much of that.
I ordered the “5th Generation Warfare” series, hoping it will help me to understand how we’ve been brought to a point where we as a nation can’t have rational discourse.
I have to say, hearing Tucker describe how angry he was about how the country is being sold out helped me feel less alone. And I was glad to hear him talk about how refreshing it was to find that he actually liked the old black guy who is being charged by DOJ just for saying the US pushed Putin to invade Ukraine. Hearing how Rogan listens critically and actually considers and processes what the other person says, and how he defends even those he disagrees with when he feels the criticism of them is going too far... was refreshing. This is the kind of honest talk the country needs.
But it doesn’t happen in a 30-second sound bite or in a NYT article, so it will be up to genuine truth-seekers to look to people like Rogan and Tucker.
