Chugging raw eggs, tanning testicles are how Tucker's 'bro scientists' want to combat 'globalists'

Everyone got a good laugh back in April when Tucker Carlson released the trailer for his pseudo-documentary, “The End of Men,” which featured men tanning their testicles with what looked like a car charger and hunky muscle-bound weightlifters gazing at each other homoerotically while pumping iron. The ridicule that erupted on social media in response seems to have affected the film’s release; Carlson suddenly stopped promoting it, with a promise of a later release.

Carlson finally did so this week, streaming “The End of Men” on Fox Nation, and has been promoting it on Fox News via his nightly program. The “documentary” remains as absurd as ever, but it’s also become clear that it revolves almost entirely around the conspiracy theories promoted by a man who goes by the pseudonym Raw Egg Nationalist, based on his habit of consuming over 30 raw eggs daily, which he does as part of a diet he says will combat the “globalists” trying to control the world. What Carlson doesn’t tell his audience is that Raw Egg Nationalist is deeply enmeshed with racist white nationalists, including a publisher who specializes in reissuing old Nazi texts.

The identity of Raw Egg Nationalist, who speaks with a British accent, is currently unknown. But he has built a large social media following on Twitter and YouTube while promoting his theories about “soy globalism” attempting to control the population through diet. He touts pseudoscience to his followers, urging them to consume large amounts of raw eggs—called “slonking”—and uncooked foods, including meat, as a key to resisting their “tyranny.”

Before he turned up in Carlson’s pseudo-documentary, he had been featured on Infowars’ War Room with Owen Shroyer promoting the same claptrap. In addition to the underlying antisemitism of his rants about “globalists,” he regularly refers to “the Great Reset,” a QAnon-adjacent conspiracy theory concocted by COVID denialists and promoted heavily by Infowars’ Alex Jones, claiming that these “globalists” are using vaccines and health concerns to enslave the world. “Great Reset” theorists frequently use antisemitic themes to promote their claims.
