Are there really people that stupid out there that they believe this garbage? I know free speech and all but just outright lying and making millions doing it. I just hope the sane people realize just how dangerous electing republicans to power will be. It will be over of this country as we know it. And all the fools who vote for Trump and if he wins, will be shocked to find out how fast they will lose everything to Trump including their money and dignity. I don`t want to depend on the military for coming down on the side of the constitution. There are too many of them that support Trump.

Truth is based on an emotional response, not on examination of facts

(53,012 posts)It doesn't matter if viewers believe or mock it. They all contribute to his ability to spread his crap on the airways. It turns out that a significant portion of his audience is comprised of Democrats. So for those of you who watch or record Carlson, look in the mirror for the answer to the question you pose.
Carlson gets MORE Democratic viewers in the key demographic than Rachel Maddow does. https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/tucker-carlson-secures-most-democratic-223803687.html?msclkid=fc63ab32b13811ec91c49af3dddfde43
Those Democrats therefore contribute to the debasement of our political culture.
So quit watching him. It's disgusting and immoral.

(13,731 posts)They think he tells the truth and if you point out the lies? They get upset, saying we lie about what he says! I just figure that you cant fix stupid, so I dont talk to them about Fox, Trump and other right wing b.s.! Life is much easier!

I was unaware of some of what these people are listening to. The podcast they were listening to was deplorable. Ive never heard someone use the word pedophile so many times. I was directly defined as a pedophile for voting for democrats. Even further than that, Republicans to the left of Liz Cheney were defined as pedophiles. Yes, Liz Cheney one of the most conservative congresspersons.
They two then started talking about how amazing it was that all vaccinated people were finally about to have their eyes opened because Nadals career was over because of the vaccine. They were excited as they talked about how vaccinated people would all begin dying in the next couple of years.
These people arent alone. They have their own cottage industry of misinformation.
I think what many of us dont want to say is Tucker is becoming the center of their party. He has been normalized simply by this insane social cottage industry of propaganda that has been created.
That tenant will never understand that she is the enemy of the owner of the property. She is fully in bed with the enemy.
