Last night Bill Kristol called out Tucker Carlson for discussing the very real issue of removing monuments of all American forefathers who once owned slaves, saying that Tucker was attempting to rationalize slavery and then later suggested he’d rationalize anti-semitism.
They started by rationalizing Trump. They ended by rationalizing slavery. https://t.co/1BYhLF9YQY

Next: Luther, Voltaire and Marx were anti-Jewish. So why's it a big deal that the marchers were chanting, "Jews will not replace us?" https://t.co/1BYhLF9YQY

If you watched the segment, all Tucker did was pose a very serious question, which I duplicated here that drew the ire of several residents.
Should we remove the monuments of anyone who once owned slaves?
Tucker responded last night, calling out Kristol for being ‘glued to social media like a slot machine junkie in Reno. He added that he had once worked for Kristol for 5 years and ‘a generally smart guy’ and a good boss, who was humane and intelligent.
Tucker then asked, ‘what happened?’
‘Hysteria has supplanted rational debate, where the purpose of political argument is to no longer explain your beliefs, but to highlight what a morally upstanding person you are, what a virtuous guy you are, usually by contrast of your opponent, who is by definition, evil. It’s childish, obviously — but for many people it’s pretty tempting. Even 64 year old men with Harvard degrees fall for it, apparently.
Tucker believes, ‘part of the problem is also the medium.’ He criticized the fact that Bill no longer thinks things through like he used to, when he was the editor at The Weekly Standard.
‘Now he just goes on Twitter and he stays on Twitter, all day, every day — dashing off little thoughts and impressions, scoring tiny little points against strangers in cyberspace — keeping obsessive track of his likes and retweets. At an age where he could be spending his time with his grandchildren, Kristol is glued to social media like a slot machine junkie in Reno.’
Watch.

Bill’s gone off the rails. I’ve seen him on live TV get hysterical and red-faced. He’s unfair and unreasonable. And taking down the monuments gnawed at me because it’s a bad road to get on.
“Monuments” are dildos to trannies. If it even barely fits. Good to go.
Nice post Fly. Maybe Twitter is just exposing Kristol’s true political views?
I find myself trying to comment on this whole monument issue but it utterly fucks my brain due to the sheer level of retardation coming from the left. All I can say is, because Russiagate failed and there’s no chance of impeachment and assassination is too obvious, the next best thing is stopping Donald Adolf Trump from winning the next election. This racial hysteria appears to be the most pathetic attempt so far by the left to keep Trump’s poll numbers down while re-painting “MAGA” with swastikas – and it seems to be working. The communists are going to have a hard time at the next election considering most Democratic voters (dead) will no longer be registered once the fraud is officially exposed soon. They need to create a new support base and it looks like they’ve decided its going to be rather radical. #ANTIFA2020
After the last election it should be obvious “polls” are a highly overrated metric.
Just sayin.
What happened you ask? The flow of money and power through D.C. is being threatened. That’s why swamp things are publicly backing ANTIFA. That’s why the media flat on out lies.
Quick question: very bad people use our taxes to do very bad things all over the world. Does that make all of us bad guys? Because no one seems to care as long as they get their own cut. Perhaps we deserved to be nuked. It’s a fair question.
I don’t pay taxes. I pay extortion.
“very bad people use our taxes to do very bad things all over the world. Does that make all of us bad guys? Because no one seems to care as long as they get their own cut.”
Excellent question and formulation.
Indeed, the MSM and C suite hypocrites that are busy virtue signalling didn’t say squat as this country went all over the mid-east slaughtering and displacing people.
His comments on twitter and social media were about Kristol or the pumpkin? Kinda applies to both.
You all realize that slot machine junkie description fits Trump also, no? However, the unwashed have a defect in their brain that does not allow comparative analytics and seeks to engage in species reduction strategies.
What a canard this “anti-semitism” and “anti-Jew” argument. No surprise it’s coming from (((Kristol))), a filthy neo-zionist.
