:ohhh: @Rell Lauren Kinda surprised there's a dedicated Tucker Carlson thread in HL.

Highest rated news show in the US right now, possibly most popular in decades.
Let’s discuss his takes and monologues as a reflection of American political thought and the overal climate within the Republican Party (although it is the most popular show for Democrats too).

I think the impact is more his clips on Twitter and YouTube… watching his videos gets you on point with where the right wing cac has landed. I really enjoy it because it’s actually a much more intelligent version of the MSNBC shows which I used to enjoy. The dog whistles and race baiting is kinda masterful and you can recognize it in other places if you watch Tucker do it.

:lupe: Have you read his 2018 book, "Ship of Fools" yet? I listened to the audiobook last year. Definitely worth reading/listening to if you like watching Tucker's YouTube & Twitter clips:

The #1 New York Times bestseller from FOX News star of Tucker Carlson Tonight offers “a targeted snipe at the Democrats and Republicans and their elite enablers” (New York Journal of Books) in a funny political commentary on how America’s ruling class has failed everyday Americans.

“Informal and often humorous…an entertainingly told narrative of elite malfeasance” (Publishers Weekly), Tucker Carlson’s Ship of Fools tells the truth about the new American elites, a group whose power and wealth has grown beyond imagination even as the rest of the country has withered. The people who run America now barely interact with it. They fly on their own planes, ski on their own mountains, watch sporting events far from the stands in sky boxes. They have total contempt for you.

In Ship of Fools, Tucker Carlson offers a blistering critique of our new overlords and answers the all-important question: How do we put the country back on course? Traditional liberals are gone, he writes. The patchouli-scented hand-wringers who worried about whales and defended free speech have been replaced by globalists who hide their hard-edged economic agenda behind the smokescreen of identity politics. They’ll outsource your job while lecturing you about transgender bathrooms. Left and right, Carlson says, are no longer meaningful categories in America. “The rift is between those who benefit from the status quo, and those who don’t.”

Our leaders are fools, Carlson concludes, “unaware that they are captains of a sinking ship.” But in the signature and witty style that viewers of Tucker Carlson Tonight enjoy so much, Ship of Fools is “bulging with big and interesting ideas, presented succinctly with wit and precision, each chapter a potential book in itself” (The Washington Times).

What the hell does "the end of men" even mean? It just sounds like some western white chauvinist bullshyt.
That's exactly what it is. Same thing you see with people who lament the downfall of religion. Redpill taken to its conclusion. They see patriarchal, authoritarian, ethno-nationalist theocracies as the ideal society.

Remember the movie Birth Of A Nation. Before its name was changed to birth of a nation, it was called The Klansman.
Same concept here.
Can even be argued that movies like Colors, had the same goal by those who produced it.

This has got to be the first documentary inspired by a meme right?

I’m assuming this will be an extended version of shirtless Putin riding a horse.

Probably with some stuff thrown in about how if you control your wife’s swinger page she can’t cuck you.

Tim Pool always talks about having the same issue on his podcast. Other than Vaush, it's almost impossible to get breadtubers & other left-wingers to come on.

He routinely has Glenn Greenwald on his show along with Michael Tracy. Despite what people on here say; they are solidly new deal left wingers who believe in universal healthcare etc. Through and through Bernie bros.
