Tucker Carlson interviews & ideologies

[Voyageur]

Just started watching it myself, decent interview, it's actually good, even though he backtracks a lot of what he's said about Russia and Putin, but it's a good way to know where he stands with most issues.

I'd recommend it, I'm about halfway done with it.

Re this interview.

Yeah, interesting interview, although only 2 hours in. It also can be seen very much through the lens of western minds, albeit Friedman speaks Russian.

Both guys seemed stumped on the discourse of why were the words denazification used to describe what is wanted from what is happening i.e., people in the west think it strange, like how do you have peace negotiations based on, we want denazification.

Can see their point (for western observers stuck on what they think is Nazi), however what it means to Russians (Polish et al.) has a different meaning. Their understanding might (might) simply be that there is a neo-nazis regime that has forced itself, with western backing, to reemerge as ideology. To take at all costs, reanimated by 'operatives,' oligarchs, puppeets and the western Intel/NATO or not, military/industrial/biological/banking complex.

Maybe there are better words within Russia to describe what it is they mean, yet in essence, perhaps it is the merging of corporate/state interests with thugs/murderers to do their bidding while robbing everyone blind. Nazi Germany never had a chance without the merging of I.G. Farben, Standard Oil, IBM and on and on that goes, with a controlling pathology leader to rule.

Yes, or it could also mean that there are openly Nazi sympathizers in the military and in the government and it is not denounced or illegal, it is embraced. That ideology is the one behind their policies of extermination of anything opposed to their goals, and the West is backing it and using it to attack Russia, and they are bent on getting rid of it.

I think that's why the Russian's have backed and proposed the resolutions to make Nazi glorification illegal, even though that won't remove the ideology from individual's mind, it does make a difference that it is illegal, it allows for a legal framework domestically and internationally, and it creates a barrier for new recruits and younger people.

For sure, full of sympathizers (likely some only in appearance being too scared to oppose), just harken back to 2017-19 when the western press were all over the rise of neo-Nazi groups and their sympathizers as an ideology base in Ukraine (primarily Kiev and west). Within its military it was ripe, with the west openly and covertly training them. So, had been surprised that these two guys acted as if were not aware of the area being an ideological hotbed. Of course, they flipped the script and it all disappeared to be replaced by the mask of democracy, and how dare Putin.

This video from 2019 was from Time (forget the US focus rhetoric they make use of) that spells out just the tip of this ideological iceberg. So again, could they be so unaware as to not understand what Putin was taking about regarding denazification?

It was just a curious point that Friedman and Carlson had both elaborated upon (IMO) in an otherwise interesting talk..

That truly shocks me, to this day whenever I have ever discussed the topic of Nazi presence in Ukraine, despite it being reported in the media and it being mentioned by the UN, people still fall back on "well, every country has Nazis... it's not that big of a deal.. it's just part of the propaganda by Putin".

Whenever I find myself in these situations, I can't help but be reminded of that idea of the "reality creators" they truly do create reality for a lot of individuals.

Me too, and thus far my response has always been the same. I ask them how many of those countries officially incorporated Nazi groups into their armed forces. Of the approximately 30 privately funded Ukrainian 'nationalist volunteer' groups, what proportion of them use Nazi symbology?

I started watching this long interview of Lex Friedman with Tucker Carlson. Sorry if it was already mentioned and I missed it.

Regarding denazification, I wonder why he didnt ask Putin. He could have asked right there and then what he meant. Putin have cited that in the beginning when Ukraine was trying to establish their own identity, they have considered the Nazi ideology or parts of it.

Denazification is not aligned to Putin's view of a multipolar world.

I liked this interview. I think his values as a family man is commendable i.e., you do not leave your family when there is threat, relating to national threat where a president is the first to leave the country. And he is humble enough to admit his own ignorance and put to light some factors for a better perspective.

Regarding denazification, I wonder why he didnt ask Putin. He could have asked right there and then what he meant.

As far as I know Putin explained it pretty explicitly to Tucker in the interview.

I understand yet if there is some confusion on his end, he could have asked him face to face to clarify.

 

[Alejo]

I understand yet if there is some confusion on his end, he could have asked him face to face to clarify.

I also understood he explained it rather clearly, what it wasn't was a small tiny sound bite about it that he could retort to, Putin went way back in history and then gave him an adult response, Tucker was not expecting that.

In another note, from Tucker's latest episode I caught this connection he makes with Rome and the military forces:

"How did Rome fall? Historians have been actively debating this question for nearly 2,000 years, but all agree that one reason is fairly obvious. The Roman army and its legions were dominated by non-citizens, who ultimately, not being loyal to Rome, rebelled against the citizens," Carlson argues.

Speaking of a new law they're looking to pass, in which they would give illegal immigrants an expedited path towards citizenship if they serve in the armed forces.

Tucker is going to respond to Joe Biden's State of the Union Address which is going on now, live on his tuckercarlson.com network when it's over. I'm not staying up for it but I'm sure it will be available tomorrow to watch.

 

[BHelmet]

Interesting choice for Tucker to bring on Alex Jones (Why Jones of all people?) for the revolting, disturbing post state-of-the-union address by the bitter old Biden.

Here it is, another Tucson's wake-up call intent in the midst of ovation and cheers supporting yesterday's foul statments of Biden. And the lady's enervating standing up and down sitting next Biden each time the invisible red light turns on... oh my, just too funny for words.

A Tucker Carlson short dated April 2:

https://twitter.com/x/status/1775266965814431777

Emails show Hunter Biden's ex-business partner and impeachment witness Tony Bobulinski offered information to Democrat lawmakers on Joe Biden's links to his son's shady business dealings as early as 2020.

Records also show the businessman offered to turn over his business cell phones to forensic analysts – countering claims from Democrats that he isn't willing to back up his story with evidence.

The emails between Bobulinski and Democrat lawmaker Ro Khanna come from a short documentary released by Tucker Carlson on Tuesday night, with behind-the-scenes footage of Bobulinski during a congressional hearing last month.

The businessman's bombshell evidence he gave to lawmakers includes 2017 text messages between Hunter and other partners in a deal with Chinese government-linked oil giant CEFC, which appear to show them referencing Joe Biden's involvement.

Latest Tucker Carlson offering - 24 min vid at link:

Is Speaker of the House Mike Johnson being blackmailed to do the bidding of the left? It certainly seems that way. His colleague, Marjorie Taylor Greene, explains.

Transcript available for TCN members. Boils down to Mike Johnson is changing the rules to ensure Ukraine gets a $60 billion aid package. No different than Nancy Pelosi - he's a RINO.

Because I see it has not been posted, Tucker recently did an interview with Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, in which she makes the statement that the CIA is the one leading the conflict on the ground in Ukraine.

"To fund a war, to pay for it, to continue it, to advise it, to have our CIA on the ground running that war in Ukraine against Russia, a nuclear-armed Russia ... that is a complete departure from anything that is Christian,"

Which are rather interesting statements to make about the CIA's involvement in Ukraine right after the attack on Crocus City Hall.
