A few weeks ago, my friend, who is actually in Smash Racism DC (I haven't been art of the organization for three years) send me a pastebin doxx of Tucker Carlson and a few other far right personalities, so I probably should have seen this coming. SRDC has really been on fire with the doxxes as of late. Anyway, last night my SRDC comrades engaged in what's known as 'grassroots lobbying' - showing up at a powerful person's doorstep, usually at night, and generally making as much noise as possible.
Now Tucker Carlson is crying. He is afraid for his family even! From USA Today:
“Here’s the problem, I have four children,” he told Fox. “I never thought twice about leaving them home alone, but this is the reaction because this group doesn’t like my TV show.
Now we're supposed to feel bad for Tucker Carlson's family. This same Tucker Carlson who literally advocated the separation of thousands of families at the US border. We're supposed to fear for his children. This is the same Tucker Carlson whose Daily Caller published white nationalist Scott Greer's callous rebuke of justice for black children slain by the police. Go ahead read it.
The fact is, Tucker has used his platform to strike fear into millions of people every night from the comfort of his own studio. His eliminationist politics of racial purity influences policy to bring ICE agents to the doorsteps of thousands. He influences policy to ensure that pigs who shoot children are let off the hook. Tucker can cry all he wants, this is just chickens coming home to roost.
