Tucker Carlson's Racism Was Always Real

[Celerity]

Shocking text messages reveal Tucker Carlson really is an abhorrent racist, and it might have cost Fox News $787 million.

I’ve always wondered whether Tucker Carlson’s nightly racism was real or just performance art to keep his audience entertained. I suspected it probably was legitimate, but not anywhere near as pronounced as Carlson pretended. I’ve always pegged the former Fox host as more manipulative sociopath than heartfelt White Nationalist, but a new shocking text from the Dominion/Fox News lawsuit proves otherwise. Tucker Carlson, it turns out, is a deeply malevolent narcissist and a genuine racist.

The story that was broken by the New York Times yesterday is stunning on a number of levels. Not only does it expose Carlson’s appalling racism, it provides a compelling explanation for why Fox settled with Dominion so quickly, and reveals why Carlson was axed almost immediately after. It also begs the important question: who is leaking these extremely damaging text messages, and why?

According to the Times, a text message Carlson sent to an unknown producer “set off a panic at the highest levels of Fox on the eve of its billion-dollar defamation trial”. For Fox to be worried about something Tucker Carlson said going public means it must have been really, really bad. And oh boy, it was. Here is the leaked text message in full:



The text reveals Carlson’s grotesque, Kiplingesque world view where noble white men struggle to retain their civility and innate sense of morality in the face of black and brown savagery. Because only black and brown have gangs, only black and brown people engage in horrific violence against helpless victims. Carlson’s moral dilemma isn’t about the senseless beating of a left wing activist, but about him becoming like the left wing activist — or ostensibly the black and brown people who do engage in that kind of violence.
