Wow, (not really). I guess I need to follow these more as I was not aware of this brouhaha over Tucker and company.
But why ? I forgot all about Tucker. Must be more of a distraction than an irritation. Meh ...
I'll let the rest of you chase your tails for me so I don't have to.
I'll be watching the commie in NYC instead.

Except that the mayor is a Democratic Socialist. And I saw your other post about how theyâre all basically the same - not capitalism! (Which is a big part of our problem at this point: profit regardless of how the rest of society suffers from exploitation.)
Quick DuckDuckGo lookup:
Democratic socialism and communism share roots in critiques of capitalism but diverge on democracy, private property, and implementation: democratic socialism seeks social ownership combined with electoral democracy and civil liberties, while communism historically aims for a classless, party-led or stateless end state often achieved through revolutionary means. Contemporary defenders of democratic socialism emphasize incremental democratic reforms; critics point to historical communist regimes to warn of authoritarian outcomes

For those not keeping track there have been recent attacks from right-wingers on Tucker Carlson for hosting neonazi/holocaust denier/white nationalist Nick Fuentes for a two hour interview/cuddle session.
Not for criticizing Israel, for hosting a Nazi.
Heritage tax policy analyst Preston Brashers posted a meme to Twitter stating "NAZIS ARE BAD", which was echoed by Heritage staffers Richard Stern, Jason Bedrick, Jay Greene, and John Peluso.
This of course led to calls for them to resign, as apparently the sentiment "Nazis are bad" is now controversial at Heritage.
It's cute that you're trying to paint Tucker Carlson as a hero here, but go ahead and cuddle up to Fuentes too if it serves your purpose.
Heâs just making sure he meets his daily news aggregation mandates.
FTA:To laughs in the room, Lairmore walked the jury through the "baseball pitch" of a sub throw, as another witness put it.
Lairmore said he "could feel it through his ballistic vest" and it "exploded all over" him after the Subway stack hit him. He said he "could smell the onions and mustard" on his uniform, and even had an onion string hanging by his police radio later that night. The fast-food mustard, he said, stained his shirt.
They also pressed Lairmore on why there are no evidentiary photos of stains on his shirt or of the sandwich after it was thrown, only a video posted to social media platform Instagram from a bystander showing the sandwich mostly intact. Lairmore said the Metropolitan Police Department in D.C. took over the investigation after Dunn was detained, and Lairmore said the sandwich appeared at least "bent and out of shape" in its wrapper.
