In the same sense you can call yourself a cabbage if you want, sure. But if you don't watch someone's show, maybe don't wade in to defend them from even extreme criticism, since for all you know it might be correct. (I don't watch Carlson's show either, merely pointing out the internal logic of your statements.)
I would have had the same thing to say if he called Don Lemon a nazi. My point was really that degrading the conversation down to who is a nazi is pretty unproductive. Unless of course they actually were. I sure hope that’s an extreme example we can both agree on. Does that logic check out?
I have 100% confidence that a Nazi would not have their own television show on a popular network where they spread Nazi propaganda in America.
I do not believe the American people would tolerate it. Seems like a safe bet to me. I don’t need to watch his show to know that. There are also people whom I know who do watch his show who I know would never accept a nazi perspective even for one second. So I do believe I can have some confidence that it’s a ridiculous claim used to stir up fear and outrage.
Does this sound unreasonable? I appreciate the questions and the conversation. However I can’t tell if it is sincere or just having fun for fun’s sake. I’m down for both but if you really think that I should take a closer look to confirm whether or not he is a Nazi. Please point me in the right direction. Maybe my entire world view of how things currently work needs a calibration.
