What does that solve? FoxNews will just hire another whitey to sit in that chair and say the same stuff.

[Long Duck Dong]

Your own link says he announced his vacation plans at end of the show before the liberals had another ridiculous virtue signaling meltdown.

Let's see, he now has the 2nd most viewed cable news show. Virtue signaling Rachel Maddow who was formerly #2 a year ago, is now #5. Do we need some tissue for all your liberal tears over this. :(

As opposed to a plantation blackey trotted out by the white liberal elites to parrot their instructions :lol

I’m by no means a Republican or have strictly conservative viewpoints but a Tucker Carlson is one of the most sensible talking heads on television the last few years.

I don’t watch him regularly, so I’m sure he still panders to FOX demographic, fck FOX news, but he had always had a good pulse on America with intelligence yet still seemed to keep it rational and simplify all the bullshit that crazy liberals make entirely too complicated at every turn

You don't know shit about this country. Feminism/BLM are "real problems" ?? :lol :lol

Bout to say that same.

It won't solve anything. They'll replace him with another talking head and he'll only amplify his message on a different medium.

Tucker is only preaching to the choir, he's not changing anyone's opinion he's only solidifying it even more.

On Tuesday, the Fox News host claimed that white supremacy is a “hoax” and “not a real problem in America.”

On June 17, 2015, Dylann Roof walked into Emanuel AME Church and sat through a Bible study during which he engaged with 12 others who were in attendance to discuss scripture. When they began to pray, he pulled out a gun with the intention of shooting everyone. When they tried to talk him down, he responded, "I have to do it. "You rape our women and you're taking over our country. And you have to go." He proceeded to shoot and kill 9 people, reloading his gun 5 times. Of those killed, one woman was 87 years old, another was 70 years old and a gentleman was 74 years old. The youngest person killed was 26, the grandnephew of the 87 year old woman.

After he was caught and during the investigation into him, investigators found images of Roof wearing items that were popular among white supremacists and posing with a gun and the Confederate Flag. They found a website that belonged to him with a manifesto in which he denigrated Jews, Blacks, Hispanics and Asians and explained how his ideology and hatred for black people came about. They also found that he had communication with other white supremacists online.

During his trial, prosecutors presented excerpts from the journal he kept in prison. At one point, he wrote “I would like to make it crystal clear, I do not regret what I did. ”I am not sorry. I have not shed a tear for the innocent people I killed.” In the end, he was convicted of 33 murder and hate crime charges.

In Feb of 2017, Benjamin McDowell, a white supremacist was arrested after buying a gun from an undercover FBI agent, telling the agent that he planned to carry out an attack "in the spirit of Dylann Roof." Authorities had been investigating him after he threatened a synagogue of Facebook and police had been keeping tabs on him after a prior jail stint during which he made connections with white supremacists. McDowell didn't have a specific target in mind, but he did tell the agent that he might go after a party with black people. From his interaction with McDowell, the under cover agent recounted McDowell's take... "Screaming 'white power' was not getting the job done. He indicated he desired a deeper response."

None of that seems like a hoax... certainly not to those who lost loves ones, or the the FBI agents and prosecutors who were involved in those cases.

True, I've met so many Americans of different political and racial backgrounds (but most are white) who moved down here and we all get along, and looking at it from the outside, it's seems so silly and a huge waste of time all this divisiveness. A lot of it is promoted by the media, liberal media making conservatives out to be bad guys and vice versa with zero middle ground, most people don't give a crap what your political viewpoints are, if you're a chill dude, people will want to hang out with you but too many people are buying into the political and racial divisiveness pushed by MSM and social media. It really sucks...

[MaxFly]

Everything is “a problem” it’s just a matter of scale. People getting struck by lightning is a problem. Is it one of the major problems America faces? No, it obviously isn’t.

More people get struck by lightning than people that get shot by white supremacists. Lightning obviously doesn’t have a motive. It’s random. But there are many problems with motives that are clearly much bigger problems than white supremacy that we don’t hear much about.

Gang violence is clearly a much bigger problem, but there’s no way to fear monger about in a way that politically benefits the Democrats.


This is an interesting take. By that logic, illegal immigration isn't anywhere near one of the major problems America faces, nor is gang violence, general gun violence, or terrorism... or most other problems. Heart disease, cancer and unintentional injuries arising from accidents are by far the biggest killers in the US, and the most economically costly. In fact, the common concerns that many cite - gang violence, violence perpetrated by illegal immigrants, and terrorism - all combined would not come close to making the top 10 list of causes of death in the US. Why then are so many people on the right and the left concerned about some of these things? Simple... there is a strong belief that it is within our power as a nation to address many of these issues in a more immediate and effective way. There's also a perception that violence, murder, hate and terrorism are big threats to the nature and character of our country.

Christoper Wray strongly disagrees with Tucker. We know there is a rising number of attacks by white supremacists in the US and an increasing number of people who associate with or identify as white supremacists. The FBI said a majority of arrests related to racially motivated domestic terrorism over the previous nine months were believed to be inspired by white supremacy. He said, under oath:


"The danger, I think, of white supremacists, violent extremism or any other kind of violent extremism, is significant. We assess that it’s a persistent, pervasive threat."

Let's make sure to frame this properly... Tucker Carlson called White Supremacy a "hoax"... he said, "It’s actually not a real problem in America." All while playing up the threats of supposedly real problems like Black Lives Matters, Antifa and Sharia Law. :confusedshrug:

You mentioned two people here. Two. It's a hoax that this is a problem in America. It's not a hoax that these incidents didn't happen. But this certainly isn't a "problem".

[NumberSix]

The FBI said a majority of arrests related to racially motivated domestic terrorism over the previous nine months were believed to be inspired by white supremacy. He said, under oath:
1. Well of course, when you narrow it down to “racially motivated” white supremacists are responsible for the majority of “racially motivated” domestic terrorism. The main strain of terrorism in the world, islamist terrorism, isn’t racially motivated. That’s like saying white supremacists are NOT responsible for “religiously motivated” terrorism or “anti-monarchy” terrorism.

2. I think you’re misinterpreting what the phrase “domestic terrorism” means.

The FBI has 2 main categories of terrorism. Domestic and international. You might think that this simply means attacks that happen in America and attacks that happen in other countries, but that’s not what it means.

For example, the pulse terror attack. That happened in Florida and it was done by an American, but the FBI categorizes this as international terrorism.

In fact, all attacks related to isis or alqaeda are categorized as international terrorism.

If there’s a KKK related attack, that’s considered domestic terror because the KKK is something that is local to America. It’s not an international movement. The KKK is a domestic group whereas Isis and alqaeda are international groups.

Man linked to white supremacy, bomb-making materials discussed attacking Las Vegas synagogue, DOJ says (https://www.wtae.com/article/man-linked-to-white-supremacy-bomb-making-materials-discussed-attacking-las-vegas-synagogue-doj-says/28663360)

A man with ties to a white supremacy group discussed online about attacking a Las Vegas synagogue and regularly used racial, anti-Semitic and homosexual slurs, officials said.

The 23-year-old Las Vegas man was charged in court Friday in connection to bomb-making materials found at his home, a U.S. attorney's office said.

He allegedly had online conversations this year in which he discussed attacking a synagogue and making Molotov cocktails and improvised explosive devices and regularly used derogatory slurs, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Nevada.

The man was linked to a white supremacist extremist organization using the National Socialist Movement to promote its ideology, according to authorities. "The organization encourages attacks on the federal government, including critical infrastructure, minorities and members of the LGBTQ community," Justice Department officials said. The group consisted mostly of men between the approximate ages of 16 to 30 "who all believe in the superiority of the white race," according to a criminal complaint.

"(The) FBI will always be proactive to combat threats that cross a line from free speech to potential violence," Special Agent in Charge Aaron Rouse, of the FBI, said.

Executing a search warrant on Thursday, law enforcement found a notebook containing several hand-drawn schematics for a potential attack as well as drawings of timed explosive devices, according to a criminal complaint. The man also claimed to have tried to recruit a homeless individual for pre-attack surveillance against at least one synagogue and other targets, officials said.

Are White Supremacists still a hoax when anti-Semitism is in play and individuals are potentially building bombs?

[NumberSix]

Yeah... the take away is that the head of the FBI doesn't consider white supremacy and white supremacists a hoax, or "not a real problem." You'll notice that he didn't say "Well, more people are dying from diabetes than racially motivated domestic terrorism, or domestic terrorism in general, so scale-wise, it's not a real problem."



I'm not... I was pointing out that according to the FBI, an increasing number of domestic terrorist attacks in the US (attacks carried out by US citizens and residents) are related specifically to the "hoax" that is white supremacy.
Easy yes or no question.

Do you think Democrats believe that the bigger the threat they can make white supremacy out to be, the more it is to their political benefit?

Think about how much money is spent to combat heart disease and cancer. When people are doing those lists they don't think of those things but they probably spend more time thinkin about cancer and heart disease than terrorism. Every time you eat, news, this causes cancer this helps keep you from getting cancer, o shit my sister got cancer. Have this food it's good for your heart. Exercise etc.

So in a way Yea those are things we care about, but hard to villify them. You can put on your survivor t shirt or a cancer crossed our but it doesn't compare to being like white supremacists are ruining our country or immigrants etc. But like I said I bet even those dudes who spend all day on TV talking about that shit care more about heart disease and cancer. If they don't, they have zero awareness

True. Stories about cancer and heart disease arnt sensational enough for them to cycle through over and over. Our News networks are not interested in having legit topics and reasonable discussions. They are trolls. CNN, MSNBC, FOX, all of them.

Very few people spend time thinking about heart disease or cancer until they or someone they know is diagnosed with heart disease or cancer, but you're right... health related afflictions are hard to vilify. It's also true that heart disease and cancer don't fall on you suddenly in a church or at a Walmart with your children. The sudden, violent and gruesome nature of mass shootings, leading to the death of people who would otherwise live on for decades, tends to stand salient in the minds of people. As a society, we've come to terms with health related death, but we haven't become numb to violent and unexpected death at the hands of deranged people.

But I'm not surprised to see that people think that death from health related illness far overshadows people shooting up 5, 6 and 7 year olds, and senior citizens.

For the hundredth time, White Supremacy being a big problem in this country is the hoax.

[Nanners]

I am surprised it took him this long to get benched. He is one of the biggest Russiagate skeptics on TV and absolutely embarrassed Adam Schiff on the subject, he has been one of the loudest voices against the prospect of new wars in Iran and Syria, and hes spent time debunking the supposed justification for starting new conflicts with these countries, he criticizes companies like Amazon for the way they treat their employees... not exactly a "team player".

If fox drops him, I hope he starts a youtube show or whatever and doubles down on his countering of these mainstream narratives.

[MaxFly]

No, obviously not. It is, sadly, very real.

So then what are the motivations of those who say it's a hoax if it isn't a hoax. To whom are they communicating that message, and why?


I do however believe there is disproportionate fear monger by politically motivated people.

Disproportionate in comparison to how politicians have addressed other concerns like Islamic Terrorism on US soil, or how Tucker Carlson has addressed Black Lives Matters, Antifa and Sharia Law? It seems right in keeping with how we, for quite some time, have addressed terrorism and terrorist organizations in this country... especially those that target specific demographics.

Politicians focus on the issues that most concern and affect their constituents; it's one of the intrinsic aspects of the job. Their positions are often politically motivated as it relates to what their voters and supporters are pushing them to address and support. When Black, Hispanic and Jewish people see violence targeted and perpetrated against their communities by white supremacists, it's an issue that is important to them, and it's not a surprise to see some Republican politicians downplay or find alternate excuses for that violence. It doesn't serve the narrative that Republicans want to play in and it's not what excites their voters. It's a political choice that they've made when they decry "all hate" and then quickly pivot to "mental health" after mass shootings targeting these groups. Everyone is playing politics here; let's not pretend that Republicans are operating on some political high ground. The simply truth is that many of them don't want to talk about white supremacists because their voters don't particularly care about the issue and they don't want to deal with the far-right ideologies that white supremacists generally spout. Democrats seek to press the issue because their voters care about the issue and tend to be of the communities affected, and most white supremacists happen to have far-right ideologies.

As for white supremacy being a "real problem" but not a "big problem," I think we do the issue a disservice when we frame it only in the context of scale. Sure, we don't have hundreds of black, Hispanic and Jewish people dying every year at the hands of white supremacists, but those communities don't view the problem from such a simple perspective. For instance, we are 150 years removed from slavery and 50 years removed from the end of Jim Crow, redlining and racially restrictive covenants. Black people have been repeatedly told to move on from that era... to stop talking about it, complaining about it, making movies about it... but here we are on the precipice of 2020, and white supremacy and nationalism, a relic from that era, is strong, alive and growing. They're killing people in churches, synagogues and at Walmarts now. The reason these communities regard the resurgence of white supremacy as a "big" problem is because they know how quickly these sorts of ideologies take hold and spread, and how easily people can be radicalized on the internet to take action. It's a "big" problem because the country has never dealt with it... we assumed that we would outgrow it and that it would die off... but here we are in 2019, it's growing and actors are becoming increasingly bold, active and violent. It's a "big" problem because many of our elected leaders can't muster the courage to address it for more than two, short sentences even after mass shootings, and even as the communities affected mourn.
