Fox News fires Tucker Carlson

Russian Wagner nazis and Ukrainian Azov nazis. You’d think that the region has a bit of a nazi problem.

If Russia is destroyed as a power what exactly do you think happens to their nuclear arsenal?

Reverse the roles here too, If Russia tried to put military bases or weapons in Mexico (or Cuba) I think history has shown how America would react. Isn’t it all very convenient for the military industrial complex that this all kicks off as Afghanistan is wound up?

I see you ignored the point about Ukraine having Nazis too and what would happen in the power vacuum without Putin. I suppose it doesn’t fit your own extremist rhetoric.

good riddence to nazis

The fact that he could still have a career really says a lot about his audience, it was all there in his texts. Does he really think that little of them? As for his Russia support, how anyone thinks it's some noble stand against war is mind boggling. Like his support for the Iraq War back in the day (remember anyone who was against it as a traitor, and then the supporters rallied around a man who ran against it), he probably relishes in the idea of seeing a superior power pummel someone smaller.

"We are very, very close to being able to ignore Trump most nights," he wrote in a text sent on 4 January 2021. "I truly can't wait."

"I hate him passionately," he added

So much kool aid.

I just feel sorry for people THIS detached from reality.

It is nothing short of copium to suggest Carlson is greater than Fox News. That has not ever been the case. It also makes no logical sense, he was a salary employee of Fox News, one of many. Speaking of that income his contract with FNC was tens of millions, none of the revenue streams you mention come close to that. Nor does the reach of YouTube. Fox News broadcast in basically every US military base across the world. To suggest the massive Fox News political machine is somehow smaller than one man in a bow tie they “elevated” is utterly laughable.

I fully invite him to be nearly so egotistical and reckless though. He will be exposing himself directly to all manner of defamation and sexual harassment etc. lawsuits without the benefit of entire office floors full of Murdoch lawyers on permanent retainer. Love to try and see him scrape together a base of income from male testosterone pills.

Ukraine perhaps naively believed that a treaty signed by Russia in the 1990s guaranteeing the territorial integrity of Ukraine was worth the paper it was written on.

It's not a point, it's a nothing burger. A couple of Wagner mercenaries or a handful of soldiers with questionable tattoos is not a "Nazi" problem. In 2014 elections the far-right in Ukraine got less than 2% of the vote, lower than most European countries.

Putin is not going anywhere, and even if he does, it'll likely be someone from his circle.

Tucker Carlson plays to the fringe extremists in the US, usually sharing the Venn diagram with Alex Jones, the GOP rely on them as voters, he makes bank, it's a match made in heaven. Par for the course is the generic pro-Russian propaganda, the "great replacement" theory and all the rest of the conspiracy craporama that goes along with it.
