    Here’s a compilation from media matters, annoyingly interspersed with war footage.

    But you’ll get an idea. He full on said numerous times he supports Russia in the conflict.

    Hence the quote from Frum I quoted when he backtracked.

        @LuFins-Dad said in The darling of Russian state TV:

        There has been a weird and strong influence by the Russians in some areas of Conservative media.

        It doesn't make any sense at all for "conservatives" to be fans of this Russian regime. It's completely at odds with what they're supposed to stand for.

        Indeed, the intellectual conservatives should recognize that lots of what the Putin regime does is at odds with conservatism. But the emotional self-proclaimed “conservatives” seem more easily taken in by Putin’s manufactured “strong man” propaganda, more ready to accept unilaterally taking another country by force as a sign of “genius,” well, as long as said “genius” wraps himself in some form of Christian whiteness.

        So, the west by and large cares about Ukraine because Ukraine is mostly white, except for the faux conservatives who care about Russia, because Russia is mostly white. Yes, that checks out as the worldview of lefties vis a vis racism being the root cause of everything wrong.

        The faux conservatives first seems to be attracted to Putin’s “strong man” persona. But Putin is not the only autocrat to project a “strong man” persona, so why the faux conservatives are not similarly attracted to other “strong man” personae? The differentiator may well be that Putin is white wraps himself in Christianity (the Russian Orthodox Church) while the other “strong man” personae (e.g., Erdogan, Duterte, Kim) is not, cannot, or do not. Call it intersectionalism, these emotional conservatives seem attracted to “white Christian strongmen.”

        Yes, the dickhead was quoting scripture at his Nuremberg rally today in Moscow glorifying the Russian seizure and annexation of Crimea eight years ago. It was truly repulsive.

          Once again, I'm left with the impression that the guy didn't finish a single day at high school without having his underpants pulled over his chubby little head.

          I'm kidding, of course. There's no way he didn't go to a posh little private place where they positively encourage being a douchebag.

                Here's a slightly less hysterical description of Carlson's take on Ukraine

                  As far as I’m concerned personalities like Carlson and his loudmouthed counterpart in Russia, Zhirinovsky, are nothing more than media limelight whores. That one is a media talking head and the other is politician is of little consequence. Coming across as Putin stooges is part and parcel of their current clown act. Both have their devoted followers.

                  Turn on the spotlights and show them for what they are; vacuous fools

                    Mr. Carlson reports stories nobody else wants.

                    And he makes a big deal about how he is the only one reporting it.

                    And he makes a point that the story should be reported.

                    This fits that MO. Nobody else is asking Why hate Putin?

                    The story here is that the answer to his question is, for the most part, he shouldn't ask the question.

                    Give him the answer, Mr. Putin is bad, and let it go.

                    Another reason is that Ukraine is a huge underdog, everyone loves the underdog. If somehow Russia becomes the underdog, things could change.

                      He used to wear a tie that nobody else wanted.

                      You know why nobody else wanted it?

                      Because it made him look like a twat.

                      The same thing goes for his "commentary" on Ukraine.

                              Mr. Carlson reports stories nobody else wants.

                              I wouldn’t call what Carlson does, reporting. He may take what he thinks is a story and then sensationalizes it out of all recognition. Some might call it yellow journalism, I just call it FUBARed.
