Tucker Carlson went after Joy-Ann Reid and Tiffany Cross of MSNBC last night for being “Hutu Radio.” Imagine Tucker Carlson, Vladimir “Mass Graves” Putin’s man in New York bringing up the subject of genocide. He goes on to say that Tiffany Cross, an experienced broadcaster, cannot put together an English sentence.
“It’s always wrong to reduce people to the color of their skin, to their melanin content, to their DNA and its even worse to attack them on the basis of that — and, of course, it is the basis of actual violence, actual violence ..”
This is, to be sure, the same Tucker Carlson that “trimmed” the most anti-Semitic parts of his interview with Ye out so that he could sound presentable. And then there’s this …
This is the same Tucker Carlson that gave race pseudoscientist Charles Murray nearly an hour to spew his junk about IQs.
Speaking about race. There is something quite touching about “racially insensitive” writer Taki Theodoracopoulos, a difficult man, believing that he had found the most polite cab driver in the whole, wide world? My favorite, Christina Oxenberg, who is incapable of being uninteresting, played a one-sided parlor game with the poor little Greek boy. I won’t be a spoiler, but the end result almost had me misty-eyed. Perhaps all Taki — and all the racial insensitives — needs a little more love in his life.
