    How most dumb people reason.

    I have no personal experience of this thing, so it must mean it’s not real.

    If i dont know, nobody knows.

    I’ve got the impression that Tucker Carlson is going after Alex Jones his audience. Tucker Carlson peddling crazy conspiracy theories right when the chickens are coming home to roost for Alex Jones, imo that’s no coincidence. Tucker never was stupid, he just has no morals, so he never had a problem with publicly stating stuff that he personally didn’t believe in. Grifters gonna grift.

      That’s my initial thought as well. The weird thing though is he’s already rich, he could bugger off into obscurity and live a life of luxury, but it seems like he just craves attention.

    Oppenheimer, Einstein, Bohr. What is this guy smoking? Wait, wasn’t this guy a news anchor not too long ago? Can people this stupid and uneducated really make it as a news anchor!?

    Looking at the content of the message and the name of the source, I thought this had to be satire. But the site seems to be an actual news site, and other news sites corroborate the story. Which brings me to the question I wanted to ask:

    What the fuck‽

    Tucker is the consummate media insider and comes right out of the rich elite. He has not gone crazy - he is just cornering a niche of crazies, to whom he will sell vitamins and demon repellent.

      I genuinely feel the same. I keep telling myself that’s just growing up and seeing the world more clearly with time, but it really feels like one big stupid drug-induced dream and I’m going to finally wake up from it eventually, cause the real world can’t be that dumb and insane.

    Ah yes, the ol’ “if I don’t know something, then it MUST be X” argument.

    Substitute X for whatever ya like! Demons, ghouls, demon ghouls…the possibilities are endless!

    It’s the reason why we should stick to using fossil fuel. God left us dragon poop for a reason, we’re supposed to burn the hell out of it, and the earth with it.

    It’s well documented that Tucker doesn’t believe the things he says. He’s just saying things for money.

      Okay, but this is either just fundamentally really stupid or some demented Cultural Bolshevism nonsense after he watched Oppenheimer and realized America wouldn’t have nukes without Jewish and socialist brains.
