    I've even wondered if Tucker's 'ruling class' and the Left's 1% are the same thing:

    I mean a tv personality with millions of viewers who owns the microphone who is on nearly every night who has other media access should not assault people just because he disagrees with their opinion and then expect people won't do the same to him.

    I will make you a proposition. I will not assault Tucker Carleson, or Hannity, or fox news, or Newsmax or Former President Trump or Ronald Reagan or Mitch McConnel as long as you don't assault President Biden or Nancy Pelosi. Do you accept?

    You sure it doesn't fall in to the Hypocrisy column? Or is it a twofer?

    Yeesh.

    Carlson is a propagandist.

    Reality is not a cartoon.. Let's take the "Left" as an example of your intellectual insufficiency. The Left was suppressed so hard, and so long, there really isn't a Left. Real Lefties, like the Communist party, are microscopic.

    When I was a kid, the East Coast Establishment (ECE) ran the country, and the Republican party. When the power in the Republican party went West, the ECE wound up dominating the Democrat party. I call it the Corporate Wing of the party. They hate Progressives with a passion.

    But the Progressives are going to continue to gain ground; which freaks them out.

    There is a small group of psychotic super-rich that want to take the country to what it was like before the Civil War, in the South. The economist they like is to the Right of Ayn Rand. They knew a supermajority of the country would reject them, so all this culture war nonsense (starting with abortion) they ginned up with propaganda. They get the power, you get your various kinds of bigotry, democracy ends, and then you become nothing more than a medieval serf.

    From Marx's bourgeoisie to the current 1% the Left certainly has it's 'ruling class'. Which one is the 'real' one, Tucker's or the Left's? And how can we tell:

    By applying common sense.

    If you stood immediately behind the biggest cow in the field all day long, you couldn't be covered in any more crap than that article.

    Most likely the Left is trying to position this as a dumb 'moral panic':

    It sounds like Nicholas has an obsession.

    And never apologize for being white, either.
