Tucker is on now. Hope he isn't triggering some of our posters. He wasn't fawning over Putin tonight nor was he last night. Stupid take.

"You're a russian shill" is the new battle cry of "If you're not with us, you're with the terrorists" that we saw in the 2000s.

Think for a second. Please. And these battle cries are coming from democrats who supposedly were anti-war during the bush era.

Don't let your hate of the left fool you into believing Putin wouldn't shoot you and your entire family to take over the world.

He is still an Ahole.
American progressives would love to do the exact same thing, and they too are *******s.


You think the average American progressive wants to murder your family? Might be time to step away from the internet for a bit.

Good evening, gentlemen. I recall, this morning, a poster making direct comparison to Hitler.

Feb. 2022 is like 1939!!

Is nonsense continuing?

Progressives are evil, that's why liberals shouldn't get thrown in with them. Progs want to control, punish and destroy values that form a strong basis for societies. I've dealt with a ton of progs and their vitriol and hate consumes them if you don't see things the way they think should be. If I posted what they've said they wanted to happen to me I'd catch a perma. It doesn't bother me though because the feeling is mutual. They're subhuman pos and a cancer to society. HTH

Again, if you deal with people who you think want to murder you and your family every day, it might be time to find something else to fill your time. The internet =/= real life.

That's true, only about 65% of democrats support what Trudeau did in Canada, seizing bank accounts, trampling grannies, cracking down on dissent. And only about half of democrats want to throw unvaxxed or people who spread "misinformation" into camps. So not all, but a large number.

there's not much nuance in tucker's take here. he ascended to fame and fortune by spoon feeding grievance politics to an audience addicted to outrage. this is just him going back to the well and reminding them why they're watching - to be mad at the libs. never mind the nuclear power dictator invading his neighbor on the doorstep of our allies.

if he wants to make the case that we have bigger threats domestically than Russia fine, but he can do it without dismissing Putin's actions
He's been harsher on Lindsay Graham and Mitch McConnell in the last two nights than any of the libs. He also repeatedly ripped Putin tonight but somehow people on here thinks he has a hardo for Vlad.

Watching all the tards meltdown consistently over Tucker Carlson is one of the funniest things in life to me.

Putin has always been dangerous but we made him a trillion times more dangerous but mishandling foreign policy with him for years. Can't necessarily hate him for that.

Reading this thread is like taking crazy pills. A bunch of CMs (the usual suspects) don't understand nuance...at all...and jump in this thread emotionally attacking everything that moves because they aren't bright enough to understand Tucker's commentary.

It's easy to see why we are where we are currently as a country. Supposedly college educated adults can't grasp subtlety or nuance so they create strawmen to argue against and blame the "other side" for supporting Putin because they aren't equipped to grasp what should be glaringly obvious (looking at Georgia's true colors re-emerging). When you try to break it down and explain it to them slowly they put their fingers in their ears and start screaming " BUT MUH RUSSIA"!

All I can think about when reading Georgia, OldMcDonald or Larry's posts...

I just perused this thread for the first time.

I think it's hilarious/sad that the usual concerned moderate crowd around here is reacting to Putin dunking all over their beloved President Poopy Pants by expressing their outrage at Tucker Carlson instead of taking a good long look at their own "leadership" and demanding real answers.

At this point, Biden is such a colossal failure (and so hopelessly incompetent) that they're down to accusing anyone that points this fact out of being "pro-Putin." None of us are and you all know that. It's just the first lazy "argument" they can think of when confronted with the stark reality of the situation: the person they put in the White House is completely overmatched, entirely out of his depth, has no business having the job or holding the office, and once again has orchestrated a tragic failure that will cause death and suffering for millions and financial malaise across the globe. Perhaps start with owning that and people will stop rolling their eyes at you.

Maybe hilarious/sad was the wrong description. I think I'll change that to pathetic.
So if you think Putin is in the wrong, you are a Biden supporter?

What a load of hogwash.


To some simpletons it is that black and white.

Tucker's take was embarrassingly bad. He didn't pull off the snark like he meant to. He took the wrong stance at the wrong time. Just like his early Covid takes. He will reverse course in a few weeks again no doubt.

And i usually love the guy. And love trump. They both live to enrage libtopia. But it wasn't a good day for either.

270 posts on what some TV personality said with lots attacking him. None of those posters bother to post on the president speaking today. Wow. CM are not concerned
Not to play the role of Captain Obvious, but we all know the truth. They can no longer hide that neither Biden nor his handlers have a clue what they're doing. They are hopelessly overmatched.

So they yack about TV personalities instead of confronting reality.
Or…the failures of Biden are so obvious, the multitude of posts commenting on this failure continue ad nauseum here…and Tucker was the topic of this post. Why continue to add to the circle jerk? People can choose to post on what they want. The converse is true for negative Trump topics and the lack of his sycophants commenting. Biden is an idiot. Feel better?

Here he is last night I guess noting with an expert/guest how the left…as per his comments the other night that triggered this thread…wants energy prices to skyrocket which is why Biden has ceded so much power/leverage to him.

Has Tucker said that Putin is wrong by doing his invasion of Ukraine?
There are in fact two things, science and opinion; the former begets knowledge, the later ignorance. Hippocrates

Yes, of course. But I am sure nothing is ever enough for the CCP-Dem talking points. At this point, belief that we must hate Carson Tucker just as much as Putin is a religious belief on the left just as 'Trump supported the white supremacists in Charlottesville.'

Quote:

Carlson urged the United States not to get involved in the war in Ukraine, instead saying the West should use this as an opportunity to become less dependent on Russian gas.

'Vladimir Putin started this war so whatever the context of the decision that he made, he did it. He fired the first shots. He is to blame for what we're seeing tonight in Ukraine,' Carlson said on his show Tucker Carlson Tonight.

His comments came just two days after he raised eyebrows by asking what exactly Putin had done to the United States and denounced the Biden administration for painting Russian president as a 'bogeyman.'
Carlson said Thursday night that it was 'obvious' that Putin was responsible for the violence in Ukraine, before asking how the U.S. should respond.
Maybe people should spend more time worrying about the silence on Putin that matters; like why Biden isn't freezing his personal wealth/assets, or the silence from people like Merkel/Macron etc. who have very recently visited the Kremlin.

The need for absolute unity/constant hatred for Putin in the US alone is so bizarre, even for MSM-following sheep, I find it tough to believe, even nowadays.

I am so old, I remember when W called for national unity in response to the 9/11 attacks, and right wing extremist Nancy Pelosi declared dissent the highest form of patriotism as to disagreeing with his policies/engagements against islamic extremists/Afghanistan etc.

However, that whole policy changed in 2009, and she later recanted when those violent extremists protested obamacare, claiming those actions were 'unAmerican.' Oh, and needless to say the tea party violent rioters were un-American. It's almost like whatever doesn't line up with leftist talking points offends leftist sheep.

Clearly, a talking point today is a need to hate Putin, culpability for enabling/encouraging his actions are not found more broadly in the actions/policies of Biden/Merkel etc.

Apparently the Biden administration is not as outraged over the invasion as some of the posters here.

Well, much respect to you, but I am old enough to remember some past leftist/MSM talking points which our regular leftist posters seem to conveniently forget, whenever a target of opportunity like Tucker pops up on their CCP code pink daily email blast.

Tucker Carlson is a moron and it's all about clicks and viewership. The more extreme he gets the more $$ money he makes.

You simply cannot defend this.
Hosting one of the highest rated cable tv shows does not exactly fit the term moron. Defending you calling him a moron is actually quite easy. Now I can't defend you getting your feelings being hurt should you watch his show.

It's not nuanced though. This wasn't a one-off comment from Tucker. He's been pushing pro-Russia, anti-NATO **** for years. Defends Putin's every move, explains his side of the story. And I'm not buying his "hAs PuTiN eVeR CaLLeD mE RaCiSt??" diatribe, because it's a disingenuous argument and distracts form the real issue. He's downplaying the Russian threat by talking about other domestic issues. Tucker doesn't seem to understand you can care about more than one issue at the same time.

There's nothing subtle or nuanced about the garbage that comes out of his mouth. He's actively pro-Russian and pro-Putin and he's using a superficial sense of patriotism to justify it.

Tucker is a traitor and he can go **** himself.


Larry, here's what I don't understand so maybe you can help me out. Clearly you, Blu, Old McDonald, Gordo14, etc. really think Putin is a bad guy. Which is true. However, you guys didn't seem to care about Obama rolling over and letting him take Crimea. I didn't see any of you railing against Biden when he torpedoed the Keystone pipeline because "muh environment" yet green lit Nord stream 2 for Putin or not lift a finger to help Ukraine. You only could muster outrage at Tucker Carlson because you didn't understand his commentary.

For people who hate Putin and Russia so much yet you only get outraged at some talking points from Tucker. No anger whatsoever directed at Obama and Biden who took actions to directly help Putin. Why do you think that is? Seems really strange...

Facebook is permitting users to praise the neo-Nazi Azov regiment of the Ukrainian National Guard if it defends against the Russians.
Azov forces were previously banned from free discussion under the Dangerous Organizations policy.

So, looks like I was fully correct yesterday morning about the actual Nazi situation.
Huh.

Are you beginning to understand why the terrorist hate us, and us spreading our degenerate culture to their countries?

They use our own military recruitment videos as propaganda. We live in a backwards clown world. Our culture is subversive to us, and to the countries we influence. Of course they don't like us, or our culture. I don't even like our culture.

At a certain point our own regime are the bad guys. Pushing globalism and degeneracy.

Is Putin a saint? Do I like Muslim terrorist? NO.
Do I understand why they hate us. YES.

I love the American people, and want them to repent. I hate the evil of our government.
