  A, B, C, D, E, F-uck Tuck >
  
  And people still continue to think they are watching “the news” when they watch his show.  Networks should have to offer a disclaimer about programming like his. >
  
  I have felt they needed a visual and verbal disclaimer each and every time they come back from commercial break, right after they claimed in court no reasonable person would take them seriously.
  "Warning. Everyone is a paid performer, paid to lie to you for entertainment purposes only. No news personal work here. We hope you enjoy our deadpan theatric performance." >
  
  I have long felt that Fox News should be shut down entirely. I know it's a bit of an authoritarian take, but frankly, Fox News and their ilk are extremely dangerous and compromised right wing propaganda arms. I don't know if I'd call for the arrests of any hosts or owners of Fox News, but I'd definitely love to see the entire channel shut the fuck down. 
  One could argue, pretty successfully, that Fox News, Newsmax, OANN, and the like are all risking our national security. >
  
  Yeah, Sinclair broadcasting group, a known right-wing media group that buys up local channels to spew right wing propaganda as "Must-runs" did a must-run about "fake news" being dangerous. They literally pulled that straight from Hitler.
  The difference is that right-wing pundits shout about fake news (with no evidence) to create the illusion that they are the only trustworthy news source. 
  There is evidence that right-wing pundits and talking heads are inspiring terrorists. Look at Libs of TikTok for a prime example of that. Or Tucker Carlson. Or Ben Shapiro. They all have had mass shooters and domestic terrorists name them as inspirations for why they were terrorists.
  I'm not sure if you meant to pull a "gotcha!" on me, but the key difference between what I said and what fake news people say is that there is plentiful evidence pointing out that right-wingers are quite literally the biggest threat our country is facing at this time, whether through terrorism or through insane political moves. >
  
  Then it seems we are in agreement. There is no 'gotcha', it's a supportive statement. >
  
  Ah okay. I am a jaded man and assume that people who reply are here to argue. It's a bad habit, but one that stems from years of right-wing dumbassery, tbh. >
  
  All good 👊 >
  
  He doesn't hate liberals. Instead, Fucker Carlson hates his caricature view of liberals, which he deliberately crafted for his audience. Those liberals don't actually exist exist except in his mind and the minds of his viewers. They built up a straw man and that's the one they rail against constantly. Their own ridiculousness leads them to hate more than half of their own compatriots. It's an addiction that's gotten way out of hand. >
  
  Nah, he genuinely hates liberals. 
  They mocked his efforts to go mainstream, and exposed him as the joke he always was. Now he's throwing an extended tantrum and rules a kingdom of lies and hate. Just like Trump and Clarence Thomas. >
  
  his mommy, who abandoned him, is or can be construed as a "liberal."  that's what normal people in this country have to worry about: how tucker is managing his feelings about his mom today. that's the sum of his ideology and what he cares about. >
  
  Mother issues?  That strangely explains a lot. >
  
  It's his villain origin story >
  
  Part of it. The other part is when he had to stop wearing his bowtie. John Stewart finished what his mother began. >
  
  That Jon Stewart interview was brutal. My hubs and I watch it every now and then when we need a good laugh. >
  
  Tucker is such a piece of shit >
  
  Jon Stewart called him out greatly on this when Tucker and another guy had a dumb show together and Stewart was guest. >
  
  Oh, on Crossfire. On CNN. Back when Fucker Carlson wore those stupid bow ties. >
  
  Only the 11th Doctor could pull off the bow tie look and even then it was more for irony sake >
  
  Funny, he didn't hate liberals, or even Hunter Biden, when he was trying to get his idiot son into college. Quite the opposite, he reached out to his good friend Hunter and asked for some alumni pull. >
  
  While you can assume my comments are sarcastic, they're also factual. >
  
  
  Carlson was one of several pundits and politicians who predicted sweeping GOP victories in the midterms that never materialized. 
  
  Has Tucker ever once not declared "sweeping victory" before any election? Has any Republican? That's a part of the cult mantra isn't it? Just keeping screaming "we're winning we're wining" no matter what, then when you dont just go "aww fuck" and move on to the next election >
  
  You were right up until the end.  They don’t say “aww fuck” they shriek that everyone else cheated. >
  
  It also is part of a very common voter suppression tactic. Flood the news with predictions and skewed polls that say the Republicans are going to sweep the election, every election. 
  It's meant to make people on the left become apathetic and think that there's no point in voting, so then they don't.
  EDIT:
  Forgot to mention that this is something paid trolls do en masse, in case you somehow haven't noticed. Post doom and gloom comments about how Republican victory is inevitable, so why should "we" bother. Same tactic, same reason. >
  
  Well put. Conservative operatives like Tuck are also paid trolls. He's a script reader. Foreign enemy assets pay him to be the star of his own game show, where he's both the host and the only contestant. >
  
  I mean, he’s basically the star of the Russian propaganda channel. They show clips of him at least every week, if not every day. >
  
  Putin got his money's worth investing fox news, his American affiliate. >
  
  Raise your hand if you still remember Jon Stewart making fun of this tool 15 years ago on CNN’s Crossfire! 🖐️ >
  
  The funniest thing about the Crossfire incident: according to Rob Corddry, Stewart didn't plan on going off the way he did that day - it happened because he hadn't really eaten anything and he was feeling crabby. 
  Jon Stewart destroyed Crossfire and Tucker Carlson's ability to wear bowties because he was hangry.
  E: Here's a link to Corddry. He starts talking about the Crossfire incident around the 1:45 mark. >
  
  What kind of asshole who is (a) over the age of 10, and (b) living in the 21st century wears a bow tie? >
  
  Bowties are cool. >
  
  The only person who ever made a bowtie look cool was Brother Mouzone on ‘The Wire.’ Everyone else who wears one looks like a clown. >
  
  Clearly you've never watched Doctor Who. >
  
  Or Bill Nye >
  
  This man has a national platform. If anyone on any other news channel said they hated Conservatives a couple things would happen. They would be fired, and crazy right wingers would start making bombs. >
  
  The culture war is asymmetric. The right has had a 20 year headstart. >
  
  You mean 40. Since reaganism opened the floodgates for extremists into the republican party and deregulated ownership of the media helping kickstart the oligopolistic hellscape we are currently in. It can be argued even farther back with Nixon and the drug war along with the original plans for a fox news coming from then. >
  
  
  It can be argued even farther back with Nixon and the...
  
  ...Southern Strategy. That was just a recalibration of language from civil rights, which goes back to slavery. Although you could probably trace it back to before the country, the country is probably all that really matters with this stuff. It is surprising how much of this stuff can be traced back to slavery, though; Heather Cox-Richardson does an amazing job of spelling it out with current events. Her newsletter is worth reading (and can just be read on the site)

  "What the liberals are doing is so wrong, it's immoral on every level... They let women and the poor access healthcare, they throw ketchup over their food instead of the walls, hunter biden has a big penis and he gets away with it... it's just so evil" >
  
  "Why do only liberals get large penises?" - Tucker Carlson (probably) >
  
  conservatives hate liberal people while liberals hate conservative policies. >
  
  So glad someone said this.
  . #1 CABLE NEWS SHOW HOST SAYS HE HATES PEOPLE WITH DIFFERENT POLITICAL OPINION. 
  THIS. IS. NOT. NORMAL.
  The Conservative right are a growing threat to everyone's safety. >
  
  TV dinner princeling has bad judgement
  More at 11 >
  
  More “entertainment” at 11 >
  
  Tucker hates liberals and thinks everyone of color, immigrants, many women and all LGBTQ persons are liberals. Some easy math right there. >
  
  No what Tucker really hates are non-white people, any and all of them. He hates liberals for not hating non-white people.
  He is a white supremacist. It's that simple. >
  
  Let's be fair.  He hates about 50% of white people too - the women. >
  
  
  “I did learn that, like, I have no freaking idea what goes on in American politics.”
  
  Oh, really now? You don't say! It's nice to hear something even slightly accountable fall out of his face for a change. What a toolbox. >
  
  This was my favorite part too. He finally says something I can agree with! >
  
  
  I have no freaking idea what goes on in American politics.
  
  First true statement I have ever read from him.
  Also, he was sad and disappointed during the 45 era? Why the fucking hell would you defend someone who disappoints you so much?
  It's a rhetorical question, really. He's answered it in his admission of cold, dark hate for humanity. >
  
  Notice he says Liberals not Liberalism. An idea is something to be destroyed in a modern society. It is the essence of the right to free speech. But by hating Liberals he is saying the Person is the one to be destroyed. Since he has no compelling case to destroy the idea of Liberalism he has to kill the Person who carries the idea. >
  
  Good point. >
  
  “I have no freaking idea what goes on in American politics.”
  Yes Tucker because you’re a rich asshole >
  
  I miss when this troglodytic mouthbreathing imbecile wore a bowtie so you could identify his idiocy from a distance and at a mere glance. He had to ditch it for the GQP to take him seriously. I'm not sure which of those sentences is more depressing. >
  
  Tucker ditched the bow tie when Jon Stewart handed him his ass on Crossfire back in '04, long before the Q nonsense. >
  
  A part of me thinks the reason for Tucker's extreme hatred for the left is precisely because Jon Stewart was 100% on the money with his comments.  Some people when confronted with the truth, will accept it, while others decide they will fight it with every fiber of their being.  Tucker Carlson is the latter case. >
  
  Tucker Carlson is a paid russian agent
  Everybody must know this by now >
  
  At least he’s consistent, dude was born a millionaire, he’s been all about protecting the rich since birth. 
  It’s the idiots who think he stands for the average man that I can’t stand. like how stupid do you have to be to think a millionaire inheritor who’s been stupidly wealthy since birth is going to stand up for what’s in your best interest? 🤣 Republican levels of stupidity are really something else >
  
  
  “I did learn that, like, I have no freaking idea what 
  goes on in American politics.”
  
  Then how about you shut your fucking mouth about them, Tuck? You’ve done enough damage to our democracy. 🙄 >
  
  No worries Tuck. You can tell your friends Us liberals hate you. Let us know when you grow tired of trying to divide and destroy our country >
  
  But not now… the hatred I have now and preach you to have immediately after the bad thing I wanna distance myself from is ok and is puuuure clear mindedness. >
  
  “And I wanted that so much, not because I like the Republicans — I really dislike them more than I ever have — but I dislike the other side more,” he added, saying, “I did learn that, like, I have no freaking idea what goes on in American politics.”
  So, I think this is really instructive. I think this is the attitude of Trump voters broadly, and why the GOP is in such a terrible position right now. The typical MAGA person doesn't like Republicans, they just really, really hate liberals and Democrats.
  They saw Trump as someone outside the system (I still don't know how he pulled that off, but whatever) who could fuck over both parties and shake things up. Now that Trump is largely sidelined, I think the GOP thought that those type of voters would still back the party.
  Sure doesn't look like it so far, and now they have mini-Trumps in the party like Bobert and Gaetz who,  through malicious self-aggrandizement, can effectively prevent them from doing anything. Starting with what we're seeing on the floor of the House currently.
  Lindsay Graham was right, it just took longer than he expected for that quote to come true. >
  
  Pretty misdirected and hateful way of saying “I was wrong, and not just innocently wrong, I told you the wrong thing intentionally to rile you up” >
  
  Fuck off, Traitor. >
  
  Having dick for brains clouded Tucker’s judgment permanently >
  
  I think his head up his ass would have clouded his judgement. >
  
  Disagreeing is ok Tucker, but letting it get to hatred is unprofessional and stupid! Get some help dude >
  
  Isn't he the one always talking about "X is living in liberals' heads rent-free"? Now he's claiming his judgment was clouded due to his own hatred. Doesn't get much more "living in one's head rent-free" than that. >
  
  I don't believe a word he says, this is a ploy. >
  
  Hatred? We’re your countrymen, not your mortal enemies.
  I want a functioning Republican Party that works for the American people and doesn’t work to harm their perceived enemies. >
  
  I always think about the story of how Tucker's biological mother abandoned him when he was a kid, and he ended up wearing a bow tie all the time so other mothers would say "well aren't you a darling little man!" He wore that bow tie into his 30's.
  He once said that he never even thinks about his mother leaving at all. Then he bitterly smokes a cigarette and lashes out at liberals, while quietly sneering at the republicans who watch his show every night. >
  
  And didnt stop until Stewart "ROASTED" him for it on his own show. >
  
  
  “I did learn that, like, I have no freaking idea what goes on in American politics.”
  
  finally said something accurate >
  
  Hatred of liberals has turned the whole of conservative into  America ~~into~~ evil ~~sub~~ humans
  edit: strike some bad language >
  
  They were already evil. The only thing that changed is the permission structure for expressing it out loud. >
  
  Again, Conservatives aren’t evil, they are misguided. This is the problem the US faces: an abundance of false claims leading to a twisted perception of reality and an abundance of hatred. The only cure is education, but how can you teach people the truth when the system is just as corrupt as the institutions that govern it?
  what a mess. >
  
  Conservatives are evil.  You're just pretending they're not to make yourself feel better. >
  
  Walks like a duck, talks like a duck... but don't call it a duck, or you'll hurt it's feelings. >
  
  Lib hate or all the farts he was sucking out of DJT’s rear? >
  
  Country club lifestyle had him hating empathetic policy makers long before DJT was even a Republican. >
  
  “I did learn that, like, I have no freaking idea what goes on in American politics.”
  Probably the sanest thing that's come out of his mouth. Too bad he's going to take this as "because everybody else are wrong" instead of "because I'm wrong". >
  
  “And I wanted that so much, not because I like the Republicans — I really dislike them more than I ever have — but I dislike the other side more,” he added, saying, “I did learn that, like, I have no freaking idea what goes on in American politics.”  What in the actual shit? The party of fear and self-loathing is apparently lifting the veil and sharing their values aloud, alongside their ignorance. >
  
  Fucker is so full of shit. He is drawing a paycheck and will say anything for his bottom line. He is looking out for him and his. That is the culture which Raygun created and which has become the US creed. >
  
  Tucker Carlson is a racist, sexist, misogynistic, homophobic, transphobic, lying sack of shit. >
  
  A NEWS CASTERS HATRED OF OVER HALF OF THE AMERICAN POPULATION ..  I think syphilis would be too good for him. >
  
  His mommy issues have clouded his judgement his whole life. >
  
  I can certainly believe that his judgement is clouded by hatred. >
  
  So not fair and balanced then?  Noted. >
  
  Huh.
  I’ve never let my hatred of Tucker Carlson affect my judgement in any way.
  Maybe he’s just a weak-brained idiot.
  Oops. “Weak-brained idiot” is a redundant phrase.
  I guess I see how this hatred thing works after all.
  My apologies. >
  
  Tucker is wrong more often than not on each opening of his mouth.  Admitting a single wrong does nothing to lessen the overall flood of wrongs coming from his mouth. >
  
  Extolling those Christians values of hate and intolerance. >
  
  There's no hate like Christian love >
  
  
  he added, saying, “I did learn that, like, I have no freaking idea what goes on in American politics.”
  
  To the surprise of no one. >
  
  I thought he was a Christian. Sounds like his little pact with the Devil has consequences. >
  
  ….Only before midterms? >
  
  Weird. My hatred of Tucker Carlson hasn't clouded my judgment in the slightest- I see clearly that he's a racist Russian asset. >
  
  Funny, that this lying MF'er will call Hunter Biden to help his kid get accepted into a top tier college but he hates liberals.  The maga/qanon freaks are soooo gullible! >
  
  All I see is "it turns out I am in fact NOT a reliable source of information." >
  
  🖕🏾 Tuck >
  
  Hatred of American clouded my judgement...there fixed that for you. >
  
  "I have no freaking idea what goes on in politics"
  -Tucker Carlson >
  
  Carlson does not have judgment. He only has motive. >
  
  Look what you made me do.
  -Every Abuser >
  
  I didn’t know there was such a word as “wronger”!  This guys supposed to be smart?  What a f’n dumbass!  Is his education level grade 8?  Idiots like him have no place on tv. >
  
  Really wish this russian sycophant would just fade away. >
  
  Who cares what that absolute pile of shit of a human being says? >
  
  I think the scope of hate clouding his judgment is far more cascading than he's capable of processing. >
  
  I think his judgement clouded his judgement. >
  
  Nothing clouds my hatred of Tucker Carlson..it’s crystal clear >
  
  Actually he has got a lot wrong in the last years. This was bot his worst. But: He is not news, but entertainment for the extreme right. >
  
  A pic of a shit sandwich, except the bread is shit too. >
  
  Press X to Doubt. >
  
  The Republicans are the immoral side. They elected Trump. >
  
  Hatred huh?  Without those pesky liberals you “fear” what would you talk about? >
  
  Remember when he blamed his poor take on Putin and Ukraine on Biden putting Harris "in charge" of the issue so it can't be serious. 
  This is why News Corp argued he's satire. But about 45% of our country thinks he's real and it's fucking us. >
  
  What judgment? He is a right wing demagogue. >
  
  $ <- ‘Hatred of Liberals’ >
  
  Well I guess that happens when you're not a news-person and just a simple "entertainer" like Tucker. >
  
  Fuck Tucker. That weak chinned piece of shit >
  
  Oh wow, 3 russian assets in one picture. >
  
  I would say fuck Tucker, but he doesn't exist in a vacuum.   Fuck the dumb people who watch Fox unironically that believe him more. >
  
  This makes me so fucking angry. These people don't even know what liberals are. They just believe a bunch of shit that suits their narrative. They are destroying the country. >
  
  Aside from Tucker Carlson being an absolute idiot in general, this article really highlights that he has no ideals. He seems to be unhappy with any possible outcome of American government. I mean, if he, of all people, wasn't happy about the Trump presidency, then what would he be happy with? He "hates the democrats" but also has never "disliked them (republicans) more"...what gives? Maybe it's time to unfurrow the brow, and call it a day. Sorry, ranting at this point, Tucker is just such a feckless, loser with a non-existent belief system. >
  
  Let me fix this for you; Tucker Carlson: ‘Hatred of Americans ‘clouded my judgment’ before midterms. There, that’s better. You are welcome >
  
  Weird. My hatred of him enhanced my judgment. >
  
  Says a man consumed by his own ego >
  
  
  “I look at 2016 in the opposite way,” he added. “We thought this was the ultimate triumph. We really did. And I was thrilled by it … and then I spent, you know, four years feeling like really disappointed and sad.”
  
  Fucker was sad that even more hate and destruction wasn't reaped upon his enemy for four years. >
  
  Tucker “F your feelings” Carlson recounts how anger, hate, sadness and disappointment affected his job performance. >
  
  I dunno, maybe don't give national TV time to someone who 'hates' others? >
  
  Funny he says "I've never been more wrong."  
  I think he is regularly as wrong, and more! >
  
  Here is the thing, i think it is great when someone has a moment of self realization going on and see their issues. But that ends up being meaningless if the pattern of lies, conspiracies,  and deceit continues on air. It becomes meaningless realizing g mistakes if those mistakes continue without issue. >
  
  He’s not having a moment of clarity. He’s attempting to distance himself from shit right now and wants to avoid admitting that he deliberately strung people along with lies and stoked hatred for the results we now have. >
  
  "I hate the libs so much it's all their fault." >
  
  Want to know where Tucker came from? Watch “The Lady and The Dale” doc. Amazing origin story of his father… >
  
  Hey Fucker, fuck you, you stupid motherfucker.  He's just pussy because he blew it coz HE'S A STUPID MOTHERFUCKER. >
  
  Tucker Carlson is undoubtedly a fascist, so his stated dislike for the Republican party is entirely rooted in the fact that they aren't openly fascist at this point. That is the sum total of his dislike of the American GOP political party. >
  
  Anyone in the world who hates any group of people is a fucking moron that deserves all the worst things in life. Everyone has a unique view of life. A liberal to this person is someone that doesn’t agree with him. >
  
  I hate the group of people who say the same shit as tucker. Sorry not sorry. >
  
  At least you’re being specific >
  
  Rupert Murdoch has ordered his minions to no longer support Donald Treason—I’d bet we see a new narrative out of Hannity and the rest of the Fox News gang soon. >
  
  Pretty much sums up the entire Fox agenda. >
  
  I think he has his parties mixed up >
  
  What form of judgement is he purporting to have now? >
  
  Maybe he should be Calling the whambulance >
  
  All you have is hatred, you petulant TV dinner baby >
  
  lol what a fucking idiot. >
  
  He only hates liberals while on fox. Behind close doors the dude doesn’t give a fuck because he’s a fucking multimillionaire. He just had to go one tv once a night to keep the money coming in. Dude doesn’t give a shit about any of this >
  
  Always remember that the "T" in Tucker is pronounced as a "F" >
  
  I loved when he was called the worst human being by a fly fishing guy in Montana. >
  
  Oh, sweetie, it's been far longer than that. >
  
  I think it’s more like all the shit between his ears is clouding his ability to think… >
  
  To fuck yourself with a cactus Tucker.
