Tucker Carlson was on Joe Rogan's show & one of their discussions was on evolution. Aron Ra has chimed in:

 

[Audie]

Tucker C is all too characteristic of
America.

That's mean,

but sadly accurate.

I'm a fan of the USA.
But you guys worry me.

 

[Heyo]

Tucker C is all too characteristic of
America.

I don't think Tucker is a typical US citizen. He isn't stupid.

Careful, he represents a very large population of fundamentalist Christians rejecting the sciences of evolution and they are being elected to Congress and other elected offices across the country including the Supreme Court,

Due to the evangelism of Creationism worldwide the rejection of sciences of evolution is growing in the advocate of "Intelligent Design" and outright literal Biblical Creation.

This fundamentalist Christian beliefs extends to the increasing persecution and outlawing the LGBTQ community, even the death penalty.

Also remember Tucker is a buddy buddy cheek warming friend of Putin.

I'm the last to accuse someone of malice when their actions (or opinions) can be equally explained by stupidity. But I don't think that Mr. Carlson's opinions can be explained by stupidity. He knows the facts. But he is very good at spinning a narrative very convincingly, and we know that he is willing to lie.

So does a large percentage of Americans that believe as Tucker believes

He and Rupert Murdoch know how to make money.

Nope. Most YEC do believe that the Bible stories are true. Mr. Carlson doesn't. He knows they aren't true. He just believes that it is good for his goals when dumb people believe what he tells them.

I am not sure what Tucker believes, He does say he is a Christian.

To me he appears to be sensationalist "Medicine Wagon Dr."

He may be a Christian, but he's not a YEC. He is smart and he is educated. Pretending to be a YEC helps his political agenda.

It has a bit of that. But instead of snake oil, he sells white supremacy.

There is no doubt that he is totally amoral. All he cares about is what helps him. But I do think that there may be some severe damage to ceretain parts of his brain. It is almost as if the reasoning part of the brain is dead except for the conniving areas of reason.

And don't forget that he is so ridiculous in what he says that a case was won using the "Tucker Carlson Defense".

You mean the "reverse reasoning" part? His talent to take any kind of news and twist it into what he wants it to say, and articulate that as if that was the only possible, logic conclusion is unparalleled. You could give him your grandma's apple pie receipt, and he'd turn it into a defence of Israel - and 90% of his audience would be convinced by his "brilliant analyses".

Tucker Carlson is right on at least one issue, by being with and for America on the situation in Gaza.

Which means what?
I shudder to think.

Those who watched the video would've heard Aron Ra characterizing Tucker Carlson as always wrong about everything, and I gave that as an example that it's not exactly true.

So you think Aron Ra made an error, but you are unwilling top tell us what it was?

Have you heard of the "Tucker Carlson Defense"? I doubt if you have.
