No surprise. The right, and extreme nationalists like Tucker Carlson, support brutality here against our own people with their anti Semitism and bigotry toward Black Lives Matter. Of course they support toxic patriarchy and autocracy in Afghanistan. And misogyny. Why, “some of their women even like it,”cheers Carlson. What incredible ‘liberal’ freedoms we have that a profound liar and disinformation weaponizer as Carlson has such a public platform. He should be on his knees with thanks as an American as should the alt right that they have so much opportunity here to damage our country and cheer on the Taliban. The liberalism they defame keeps their pirate ship afloat.
