evilweasel posted:breaking down someone's door while people are home is a very explicit threat of violence, and that context is easily understood by anyone Considering how consistently being named on FOX has lead to harassment and even murder of the person named, I suggest that having your name in Tucker’s mouth is also a very explicit call for violence.

Pretty much anything a right wing pundit or politician says is probably lying so never repeat their claims without serious double-checking.

i'd bet this is enjoined nationally within the next two weeks and ultimately is brought down on some kind of APA issue (failure to do this through N&C and trying to push it through immediately as an interim final rule, if i had to take a guess)

Why are we arguing about breaking down someone's door when it didn't loving happen? gently caress it, sure, i agree that some hypothetical maybe bad, but let's focus on that fact that y'all are falling for the right wing spin on the narrative which transformed "someone knocked on the door hard and there's a crack in it" to "they beat the door down with a battering ram and laid claim to anything that was inside" Next let's talk about how Acosta really did assault that intern

Jim Acosta isn't a white nationalist, so breaking down his door would be bad. Tucker Carlson is a white nationalist, so breaking down his door would be fine (in a moral sense, I am not arguing it should be legal). Property damage isn't going to hurt his kids. axeil posted:protesters break down a left-leaning media figure's door = bad I don't agree that it's hypocritical because I don't agree that white nationalist/fascism is equivalent to other political ideologies.

Condiv posted:https://twitter.com/StephenAtHome/status/1060577331759210497 God, I loving hate this so much. On some level, I absolutely agree with the sentiment: it DOES feel like this is crossing some kind of line that should give reasonable people pause. But rich media personalities rushing out with these lukewarm musings about civility are ignoring the context that they have completely abdicated their responsibility to fight this problem the "right" way for YEARS. Tucker Carlson and his ilk have grown into such a vile cesspool because they were given legitimacy by everyone clutching their pearls about this now, or at the absolute most, made the butt of some jokes that were very intentionally designed to not cut *too* deep. So really, every single time I see prominent names wax poetic about how we should be better than this, I really have to ask myself... what the gently caress do they expect people to do when they feel like no one is willing to actually fight on their behalf?

I mean did anyone actually read the news report about this or are we all just hot taking off other people's hot takes? I put absolutely no faith in Tucker Carlson reporting that someone cracked Tucker Carlson's door because he's going to blow every single bit of this up as much as he can to get as much sympathy as he can so he can go on being a Nazi gently caress on TV without any personal consequences. Apparently THIS is the mob we're all freaking out about. Like six people with signs. This is what he's gotten everyone into a frothing "save Tucker's children" rage over: https://twitter.com/bakerlarry84/status/1060621509201461248

It's okay to break down his door, no one got hurt. It's okay to throw a brick in his window, no one got hurt. It's okay to kill him, his family is still alive. It's okay to injure his family, the children are still okay. It's okay to kill his wife, the children are better off. It's okay to kill his children, they would grow up just like him. ^^^ All things left-wing revolutions have done. Violence breeds violence. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

For real Tucker putting it out there that his "house was broken into" and that his "family was threatened" was done for the explicit purpose of starting the discussion of whether it would be appropriate or not, whether it happened or not, and it's devilishly effective.CelestialScribe posted:It's okay to break down his door, no one got hurt. wtf are you arguing, and with who
