    Yes, Mr. Carlson can be offensive, that is why he gets the big pay.

    Tonight he was making fun of the solemn remembrance that will take place tomorrow. One of the most significant dates in our history. They will soon be razing the Washington monument to make way for the 1/6 monument.

      Is Tucker an asshole?

      Yep.

          Yeah, he's smart and insightful, but like most of the people in the industry - lacking scruples and integrity.

            Scruples and integrity have never been as common as we'd like to believe.

              Spreading misinformation about Covid isn't smart. There's a difference between clever and smart.

                  Maybe. You at least heard that viewpoint, right or wrong. If you want something you always agree with, may I suggest the NYT.

                    That's a good point.

                    But, TuCa sat there not pushing back asking for proof, etc. So, he's an asshole for that.

                      From the little I've seen Carlson has been moving more and more towards supporting conspiracy theories.

                      He's in danger of filling the gaping void left by Glenn Beck, another guy who provided stuff you'd see on his show and nowhere else.

                          (With apologies to John Cooper Clarke):

                          Like a nightclub in the morning, you're the bitter end
                          Like a recently disinfected shithouse, you're clean round the bend
                          You give me the horrors
                          Too bad to be true
                          All of my tomorrows
                          Are lousy 'cause of you
                          You put the Shat in Shatter
                          Put the Pain in Spain
                          Your germs are splattered about
                          Your face is just a stain
                          You're certainly no raver, commonly known as a drag
                          Do us all a favor, here, wear this polythene bag
                          You're like a dose of scabies
                          I've got you under my skin
                          You make life a fairytale
                          Grimm!
                          People mention murder, the moment you arrive
                          I'd consider killing you if I thought you were alive
                          You've got this slippery quality
                          It makes me think of phlegm
                          And a dual personality
                          I hate both of them
                          You're bad breath, vamps disease, destruction, and decay
                          Please, please, please, please, take yourself away
                          Like a death a birthday party
                          You ruin all the fun
                          Like a sucked and spat-our Smartie
                          You're no use to anyone
                          Like the shadow of the guillotine
                          On a dead consumptive's face
                          Speaking as an outsider
                          What do you think of the human race?
                          You went to a progressive psychiatrist
                          He recommended suicide
                          Before scratching your bad name off his list
                          And pointing the way outside
                          You hear laughter breaking through, it makes you want to fart
                          You're heading for a breakdown
                          Better pull yourself apart
                          Your dirty name gets passed about when something goes amiss
                          Your attitudes are platitudes
                          Just make me wanna piss
                          What kind of creature bore you
                          Was it some kind of bat?
                          They can't find a good word for you
                          But I can
                          Twat!

                          I was only joking

                              If you just make tons of shit up, then some of it will inevitably turn out to be true.

                              It's the making shit up that's the problem.

                              What qualifications does this guy have to make all these suppositions?

                              Clearly, he's got an agenda. And exposing the truth isn't it.

                                How much stuff have we been told from the beginning that was either A) blatantly known to be untrue, B) not known, but presented as known, and B)presented as fact, but later turned out to be false.

                                Do you own homework and due diligence. Then, chart the best course you can, given the information you have.

                                  What I do know is that right from the beginning, there has been a group of people downplaying the seriousness of this disease, and they have been wrong time and time again, and the body count has continued to rise. Fuck them.

                                  I was only joking

We have to be aware these people are suffering. It’s like chronic fatigue syndrome that have taken over parts of medicine in the last 30 years. Middle aged women, a certain person fits this profile.

                                        Sounds like Barenson is confusing the reality of Long Haul Covid with the dubiousness of fibromyalgia. That, or he’s an unabashed plagiarist as well as a charlatan.

                                          So, you've got one guy giving his opinion and it's gospel?

                                          In light of COVID, I don't think anybody does that.
