Tucker Carlson doubles down on Ukraine, calling support 'the largest political flashmob in American

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Fox News host Tucker Carlson criticised the strong support for Ukraine from US civic, business, and political leaders, calling it “the largest political flash mob in American history”.

Mr Carlson compared it to the support for public health measures during the pandemic, such as mask mandates.

“Masks were a training exercise. Mandatory masking was a shock collar designed to teach Americans unquestioning obedience and, of course, it worked because shock collars do work,” Carlson said on Tuesday night. “In a single day last month we watched, for example, our entire professional class dutifully changed their Twitter avatars from ‘mask up’ to the now mandatory Ukrainian flag.

The Fox News host claimed that “there was no debate about doing this, no reflection. There was not even a real conversation. They just did it. Millions of people simply assumed reflexively a partisan position in a highly complicated foreign crisis, the next crisis, and as they did it, they moved in perfect lockstep”.

Put your money where your mouth is and move to Russia if you think it's so great.

2. Tucker Carlson: Tool of the Kremlin

Many of us who remember the Cold War not only remember reactionaries and other right-wingers hammering anyone to the left of John C. Calhoun as tools of the Kremlin but also those Republicans who erred on the side of decency and bipartisanship. Many of us also remember the incredulity and disgust many of us centrists and progressives had for the real-deal left-wing shameless apologists for the Soviet Union.

We thought it was wrong then and we still think that being a willing tool of Purim’s Kremlin is still a Very Bad Thing.

Here’s looking at you, Tucker.

24. Tucker's Flash Mob - A bunch of GOPutin pedos, with shrimp dicks, dropping trow to the defenseless.

[Ray Bruns]

3. Equating mask mandates with the support of Ukraine is a good way to gin up the rubes.

[Baltimike]

4. Tucker Carlson's BOSS went into a COURT OF LAW and said no reasonable

person should take him seriously.

They won that case.

[Volaris]

5. Oh, I see. So only tucker and his nazi pals are capable of critical thought,

Not us plebes, were just dumb sheeple.

I'm beginning to think that tucker doesnt actually care all that much for, yaknow,...democracy. My guess would be it's because how DARE the Great Many of Us get to tell His Specialness that hes wrong, and that he should shut up and fuck off.

[rambler_american]

6. Tucker Carlson can kiss my ass

but only after he boils his lips.

[niyad]

7. I would not let tuckyo rose KKKarlson kiss my dead cat's ass.

May this little traitor receive everything he deserves.

[PatSeg]

8. Okay, either he is totally losing his mind

or perhaps Putin has some serious kompromat on the weasel. He just keeps doubling down and I can't imagine how much lower he will go.

[SoonerPride]

9. Why does any corporation advertise on his show or Fox News at all?

They don't have to support his insanity.

[uponit7771]

11. His show doesn't have many major advertisers his funds come from the bundling by the

... providers like DirectTV, YouTube, Hulu etc

[SoonerPride]

13. I wish I could remove Fox News from my cable package.

I would in a second.

[uponit7771]

16. Yep, unfortunately Carlson taps into the darker angles among Americans and the young left ...

... because of his authoritarian leaning.

[uponit7771]

10. Triple down on calls for his cable news carriers to be canceled

[BlueIdaho]

12. Is that Useful Fucking Idiot being paid

By Putin? It would not surprise me.

[Caliman73]

21. He is not a "useful idiot"

The term "useful idiot" was used to describe people who were gullible and tricked into believing in a cause. They are useful because they are idiots and do not know any better but to blindly promote an ideology.

Carlson is worse than a useful idiot. He is a cynical mercenary who knows that what he is saying is false. He does what he does because he gets money and power.

[Initech]

14. He should move to Russia and put on the Z uniform and get it over with already.

[Paladin]

15. Tucker is more pathetic and ignorable, every day. (nt)

[muriel_volestrangler]

17. Millions of people simply assumed reflexively that the mass murderers were in the wrong

because they're not psychopaths, unlike Carlson. Really, he is psychopathic; he shows no empathy for others' suffering, just does everything to advance his own career.

[Jetheels]

34. He is a psychopath.

Unfortunately psychopaths and sociopaths are more common place than one would imagine.

[Beausoleil]

18. It's pretty amazing

how human beings can come together "in lockstep" with the same idea of right and wrong without "relflection" or "conversation".

And pity those who don't get it and those to which "never again" means "we need to think about it".

[Ohio Joe]

19. "a highly complicated foreign crisis"

Utter and complete nonsense. If you find a dictator invading a democracy without provocation and then committing war crimes a complicated thing to take a side on... Maybe you're a fucking murderous fascist.

[paulkienitz]

20. Tusker is baffled at why people would oppose mass murder with so little thought.

[robbob]

22. He like that legislator (Florida? Texas?)

Who said that we need to be teaching both sides of the holocaust…

[Magoo48]

23. I would never know what this Pendejo has to say if not for DU.

Perhaps, stop watching him. Don’t give him any play. He doesn’t care what we say here, and we are the choir. A view of him on any forum is a win for him.

[PurgedVoter]

25. Well this does connect all the points on the crazy wall

Koch Brothers, Fox News, Trump, MTG, Boebert, Hawley, etc. New and old, it is clear that the agents have been activated, the handlers have received instructions and and deep agents are now exposing themselves.

I wonder how many professors, businessmen and political figures have suddenly received a signal and instructions? I wonder how many of them have been paying attention to what Russia has become? I wonder how many remembered that they hired on before the fall and Putin took over. How many of these now have American friends, families, daughter in laws and spouses?

I would hope that they have spoken to the NSA and been told to cooperate for now and keep our country, their country now, informed and safe.

[SWBTATTReg]

26. I wonder if these people are unregistered foreign agents? Sure are acting like it.

[milestogo]

27. I would like to get him a shock collar.

[czarjak]

28. P-R-O-J-E-C-T-I-O-N from a Putin-Pleaser. Vlad's glad.

[madinmaryland]

29. Tucker seriously needs to go fuck himself. nt

[pfitz59]

30. Russian sanctions should apply to Tucker Swanson Carlson

Boycott Swansons and Faux.

[Evolve Dammit]

31. He is a seditionist, treasonous, batshit cray, frothing fuck w/ bowtie And those are his good points

[YoshidaYui]

32. Tucker Carlson works for the Kremlin

And should be treated like it!

[anarch]

33. at what point did we as a society say, "let's put the worst of us on TV"

It boggles my mind that anyone listens to this blowhard.
