[QUOTE="fokm, post: 1485002, member: 4396"] I'm sure of the many arguments I've made against Tucker there is a strawman, or two, or three. But I've made many, many arguments. The eating of cicadas, to me, is really not defensible and is a big deal. That's why I'm pressing it. When you pair it with his dad being head of PBS and Tucker working with the likes of Bill Kristol and John Bolton for most of his career...how many strawmen do you need? Dismissing even that, the fact that Tucker and everyone else on Fox News does not do daily segments about the people in solitary confinement from Jan 6 and Ashli Babbitt, including outing the man who shot her, should be a huge wake up call that Tucker and Fox as a whole are not on your side. The other MSM talking head shows press much harder on issues their viewers care about. That is no strawman, and not one person here who defends Tucker has told me that point is wrong or misguided in any way (because it is not). The other thing I'd like the point out is that those who disagree with me have resorted to saying my criticism of Tucker is invalid (without explaining why), accused me of libeling/slandering Tucker (without saying what exactly I've stated that constitutes the accusation), dismissed my arguments outright (eh, eating bugs in no big deal), or classified my arguments as strawman arguments (again, without being specific). But no one has stated or pointed out where I've been outright wrong. This isn't necessarily about me being right (I'm happy to be proven wrong), but I do want to point out the types of arguments that have been used against my ideas aren't exactly great either, no matter what any of you think of my arguments. I would show my White teenage nephew Tucker and oppo media as an example of [URL='http://dissident-mag.com/2020/08/05/fink-me-once-shame-on-jews-fink-me-twice/']Finkelthink[/URL]. I would try to make sure he knows that the current culture despises him and would do everything I could to make sure he does not serve in the military or go to college. Inform him of how power works and why idealism is fantasy. I do not have teenage nephews but I do have some teen/tween nieces and I do take opportunities to expose them to different ways of thinking when the opportunities arise. As far as my avatar, I was very fortunate to see the Hokusai exhibit in Tokyo a few years back. It's my understanding that they were planning to move that exhibit out to the country side and that should have happened by now, so it's much harder to view it.
