    I didn’t expect that, but i’m entirely unsurprised.

    I’m sure Trump feels especially at ease being “interviewed” by a fellow abuser, liar and Putin fellator, so Jr. was instructed to bring him along as a first step toward getting him back on the air.

    Carlson did not interact with Newscorp CEO Rupert Murdoch, who also showed up at the RNC unannounced on Tuesday.

    Because he knows Rupert is scary and Hannity is not.

              If you see the rascist, fascist Tucker Carlson as anything but a horrible human being that never does anything but horrible things, I question your own beliefs when it comes to race and fascism.

              Also, no one is going to click on the YouTube links of someone who praises Tucker Carlson.

                  By that, do you mean you share Tucker Carlson’s racist beliefs about black people? Because that may have to be brought up in future conversations. It’s a very important detail about you.

      It seems only weeks ago you were pretending to consume independent media and claiming to avoid bias. What changed in the far-right propaganda circuit that you don’t find the pretense useful or necessary any longer?

        pretending

        far-right = far-left = working class, MSM = Status Quo = Governement = Propaganda = All owned by the Owner Class

        I have not changed; I continue to learn and shift my views a bit, but I am still posting views that get downvoted since I left Reddit.

        Taking a look at the communities I manage now vs. when I became active in Lemmy World, I had similar core communities, but less.

        You may have just seen some of the things you agreed with, and now you are seeing some of the things that you don’t agree with.

          I have never seen anything from you that wasn’t far-right. Usually a far-right podcaster with a known history of factual inaccuracy.

          Your support for a white supremacist like Tucker Carlson is therefore totally in character. The only difference is doing so openly, instead of writing the “far-right = far-left I only consume independent media” falsehoods.

          You jumped back into character in that comment so maybe it was just a one-time slip up.

              Horseshoe theory is a crock of shit made by people who don’t know what authoritarianism is.
