If Rachel Maddow went to Russia and said/did what Carlson said/did, there’d be relentless and passionate disdain for her from all conservatives.

That's an odd thought experiment, since she's already held in contempt by the other tribe. But it's absolutely par for the course for a lefty to compare America disfavorably with other countries, and in the process use dubious logic. It wouldn't appear on the radar of conservatives.

As far as Tucker is concerned, the phrase much loved by conservatives during the cold war, to wit - "If you like Russia so much, why don't you go and fucking live there?", springs to mind.

He's very clear in the interview I listened to recently that he thinks Russia is garbage compared to the US overall. He's particularly fond of the free speech one is granted in America.
Education is extremely important.

So apparently he’s not consistent after all, because that guy was practically nursing a semi when he went grocery shopping in Moscow, and claimed to have been radicalized.

So Tucker has calculated, as the cynical grifter that he is, that his audience wants to be told that Russia is better than America. Interesting perspective.

No, that's not what I think, but this isn't really about what I think, it's about why Tucker did what he did.
You tell me, why do you think he was being so pro Russia in his creepy Putin show?
You're the one who once said that 'Tucker was good people'. What was his intent in that show?

I would think his main intent was to give insight into Putin's perspective. His opposition to the US's current level of support of Ukraine is obviously a factor.

So why do the pro-Russia propoganda bullshit? Because that's what it looked like to me. The idea that he didn't realise that $107 is worth considerably more money in Russia than it is in the US is hard to swallow unless you believe that he's an imbecile.
I was only joking

“Pro-Russian propaganda bullshit” and “imbecile” are not mutually exclusive.

I think it was a throwaway comment, a stupid one, from what you've told me about it. His intent was to say something nice about Russia, probably to offset what he sees as an imbalanced negativity in America. This is a completely common rhetorical device. There's probably someone saying something nice about Gaza in a mainstream news outlet as we speak, because they feel it's important to do so. That doesn't mean they're in love with Gaza.

Radicalized? Assuming he doesn't mean he was penetrated by a root vegetable during the interview, that's a pretty strong word for a throwaway remark.

I did listen to a long form interview with him after he got back from Russia, and he did not strike me as radicalized, and the word was not used. I am comfortable that it was a throwaway remark. It presents an easy target for sneering / giggling at him, but I don't buy that anybody is really disquieted by him saying that.
