Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Paul_Sothern: We shall see but so far Tucker is doing a lot better than Bill O' Reilly after The Borg ejected him. The nice thing about getting cancelled is you are free to say what you want. Scott Adams and Tucker come to mind making their comments more real and of possible value. Most talking heads are just corrupt empty vessels spewing the useless propaganda of their masters. Agreed...in that we shall see. but, O'Reilly has had more time to become tarnished... Tucker is catching up. |

Tucker has been doing this UFO shtick for a while now. It's totally wacko.
He's a very bright guy and has a deep understanding of the media and its impact on people. I think he does it because he is not comfortable with mode many people get into with a demigod where they trust and believe anything they say. There any many TV personalities, especially on the left, who's fans will not question anything they say. This make them vulnerable to exploitation. I think he does it to keep people thinking and not just following blindly. |

He asks questions on why those topics are classified and what is in open record on those events and the amount of public information available that doesn't make sense with what is found on Google with people involved and career paths. It's a sort of fringe Podcast because people like fringe topics, but he says a lot of Truth when it comes to the .gov turning Secret Police and overt spying and blackmailing people to get the results they want. The people really no longer have a say in the government when the people in charge of monitoring intelligence agencies are afraid of those agencies. Discusses the traits that identify evil and what it takes advantage of. UFOs are a multi faceted area, but several times he mentions that people need to look at the facts and not just blindly adopt and act on opinions without knowing exactly why they have those opinions.

Colion Noir, Eric Weinstein, James Lindsey, Mike Baker, Mike Benz… If these two guys just want to have an energy drink, some good whiskey and shoot the breeze at a meta level about what they’ve talked with others about, that’s fine with me too.

Lots of CNN bots on page 1. There's a big difference between being open to new ideas, and being so open minded your brain falls out. Pretty easy to see which side a lot fall onto here Carlson absolutely makes some strange assertions. How did he come across the ideas which underpinned his perceptions? Who/what were Tucker Carlson's sources on the UAP/UWP phenomena? (Unknown Aerial/Underwater Phenomena). Do you know, off the top of your head? And if you don't know--what does that say about your own perceptions on the topic? As for me--I had the exact same conversation, almost verbatim, inre: politicians and intelligence agencies with a guy who developed AI search engines to the DOD and Homeland Security. He admitted that while we couldn't effectively parse the ocean of clues to find the terrorist fish, we COULD turn the intelligence apparatus against individual targets and go the Lavrentiy Beria* route on sitting politicians. He admitted that can and does and is currently happening. His casual takeaway on Big Brother and his software is that we don't have to worry about a Stalinist totalitarian faction taking control of America because the Federal Government is completely incompetent--which I personally find to be a rather stupid and short-sighted position. Almost as bad as the shit that got spouted when the USA Patriot Act was introduced--"If you've done nothing wrong, you've got nothing to worry about". Anybody with 2 brain cells knew that was a crock of shit--even at the time. *Lavrentiy Beria is famously quoted as saying: Show me the man and I will show you the crime. |

Tucker doesn't come across as dumb or an attention whore, although I'm sure the allure of intelligence and fame are constant influences.
I wonder if anybody has already done the "enhance" on that video to see if they can find out who he's texting in the government by the reflections of his glasses when looking down at his screen. They probably already know anyway... |

You sound freaking ridiculous. Enduring a 3 hour uncensored interview is risky stuff so I cut Tucker some slack. Tucker is not running for President. The A bomb debate has been around since it was dropped. Lots of Monday morning quarterbacking; many books have been written on the topic. My dad probably would have died in WWII if it was not dropped so I am a little biased. As for UFO's; show me real proof. I am skeptical but open to ideas. Tucker basically said every civilization in history has been spiritual including current Western Civilization up until the dropping of the atom bomb. At that point it was all about science. We became the Gods...in so many words. Something to think about. Tucker has been an insider for many years. He has met a lot of people through his family and through his own career. Time will tell if he is a BS artist or not. |

The people you named are all old guard controlled opp cuckservatives who failed to conserve a damn thing, so much for their real solutions. The future is right wing populism and I love how mad it has made the people who look at politics like a fucking football game, with their favorite think tank authors and legacy media pre-vetted pundits. We are entering into a point where politics in America is rapidly becoming a matter of survival. The more people deny it, the more they expose their privilege and the bubbles they live in. Everyone in the thick of it can see it and understands it implicitly. But the folks decrying the populists try to feed them the same placebos "we're more alike than different" "we survived XYZ election cycle, we will survive this one" and they only betray their ignorance that most folks in the populist camp are no longer looking at the political landscape through the same eyes at this point. They see culture wars that will continue onward into full blown witch-hunts against the "other", they see shifting cultural norms being imposed through force, the emergence of Maoist struggle sessions, identity politics that will coalesce into outright genocide, etc. These aren't fringe theories or crazy ideas, these are what a rational person who has the faintest understanding of history and who has seen how far things have deteriorated in the last 20 years can look ahead and simply extrapolate the same trends, if continued at the same pace, will put us in another 20 years. What's hard to understand about that? Your Krauthammers and your Bill Kristols won't stop what's coming. |

Now I get it. Let me help. Which of the heavies you just cited (and thank you God for each of them in their work against cultural mind control) had a NIGHTLY show 5 fucking times a week for an hour each episode? Or had to fufill the multi-faceted roles of journalist, intellectual shepherd AND nightly Entertainer? Answer: None. And if they did they might have somewhat diluted their gravitas--don't you think? So given that you are comparing Apples to Oranges--I'd say that Tucker Carlson packs a pretty good punch, given the demands of his particular Genre. Is he Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn? No. And personally I don't need him to be. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Eight_Ring: I find Tucker Carlson interesting to listen to. That's pretty much as far as it goes. If he says something I might happen to disagree with (or maybe don't understand where he's even coming from) I don't have an Aspergers-inspired meltdown and decide that he needs to be destroyed. But yeah--I'm "freaking rediculous". It is interesting to see people actually invent behavior so they can attack and insult them... Please show us where you have witnessed an "Aspergers-inspired meltdown" or where anyone has decided tucker needs to be destroyed." |

Can see the point in most posts in this thread.
There was one point he made about Trump not releasing the JFK files because the American people couldn’t handle the truth. One of the big take aways from the interview, all crazy “conspiracies” asside, and trying to tease out the factutal things said is the following: There is such a high volume of misinformation, partial truths, and other underhanded shit going on at all levels of government if the truth were to be released it would result in a tremendous amount of instability, turn shit on its head, and force everyone to reevaluate what they think they know about just about everything. |

Ephesians 6 It's very possible to view the world through a Biblical lens and not say things like "UFOs are demons." I believed in demons once, came from a fundamentalist Baptist family. We all believed in lots of conspiracies, including the Illuminati and all that stuff. No one I ever met thought UFOs were demons. Demons, I was taught, were not things that manifested themselves physically, they were spiritual beings that could possess people who left openings for them. If any of our family or church or surrounding group thought about UFOs at all, it was that they were either hoaxes or military experiments. Not one of them thought they were demons. |

And no, there are plenty of people in this thread who disagree with you. Sorry you can't just live in the little bubble who won't point out that the emperor has no clothes. |
