Tucker Carlson is as much a propagandist as anyone else in Media Fox News is fabulously popular right-wing pundit Tucker Carlson has ratcheted up his Show's anti-china propaganda yet again introducing his interview with Brazil's rightist president jair bolsonaro with a psychotic rant against Beijing that word about Moscow would have looked perfectly at home among even the most demented mainstream liberal punditry at the height of Russia gate2/18
hysteria around 2018. before attempting to help bolsonaro reverse his abysmal polling against his left-wing opponent Lula de Silva in a presidential election this coming October Carlson LED with the completely unevidenced claim that China has been busy with its own agenda taking over the world all facts and evidence say that China is not working to take over the world that's what the U.S is doing but is3/18
rather working to give rise to a multi-polar world order that's no longer dominated by a single unipolar hegemon all the facts you ever see people citing to claim that China is attempting to supplant the U.S as a unipolar hegemon are when you drill down on them in reality perfectly in alignment with beijing's stated agenda of multi-polarism China taking up more space on the world stage only4/18
looks like an egregious assault when viewed through the prism of a worldview which believes this planet is the property of the United States government Carlson's claim that China has an agenda of taking over the world is also absurd on its face because it's nonsensical to claim that Beijing has been watching the US Empire Crush itself under its own weight burning itself out in a few short5/18
decades with its frenzied attempts to rule the globe and thinking hey that looks awesome let's do that Carlson also made the even more ridiculous claim that the Chinese have succeeded in recolonizing the entire continent of Africa Carlson does not bother to explain how Africa was recolonized in its entirety by China while the continent remains dominated militarily by United States Africa command africom and economically by the6/18
World Bank the IMF and Western plutocrats and corporations clearly the Chinese government is not run by self-sacrificing Martyrs who gain nothing from Chinese infrastructure projects in Africa but it's absurd to put this on anywhere near the same level as the U.S dominating the continent with dozens of military bases and amassing proxy forces and the crushing neoliberalism of the World Bank and IMF anyone who's done any7/18
intellectually honest Research into Chinese infrastructure development in Africa knows that it is far more mutually beneficial and far more ethical than the Western systems of Oppression which have been exploiting that continent for centuries so why isn't the New York Times writing stories about any of this Carlson asks of the horrors in Africa he just invented in his head you know why because the New York Times8/18
is on China's side Carlson is lying this claim of his that the New York Times is on China's side reveals so much about the fraudulent nature of Carlson's populism schtick it takes nothing more than a quick search of the keyword China on the New York Times website to show that the outlet has been frenetically churning out articles that can only be described as aggressively critical of9/18
China like this one this one this one and this one these are links in the article just to choose a few examples from the last few days do you see how this works Carlson portrays himself as an anti-establishment hero who's sharing knowledge with his viewers that they'll never get to hear from the Elites at the New York Times or those fat cats in Washington then goes10/18
on to tell them things that are perfectly in alignment with the agendas of those establishment institutions do you see how this tricks viewers into believing they're getting the inside scoop on what the powerful are really up to Behind Closed Doors while actually manipulating them into alignment with the long-term goals of the powerful I have some overlap with Carlson's audience because I criticize some of the same11/18
things he does like the US proxy war in Ukraine so some of my readers get confused and upset when I say he's just as much a propagandist as the Empire spinmeister's on CNN and MSNBC but if you actually look at what Carlson does from day to day you'll start to notice that he only criticizes some Imperial actions which are opposed by right-wing populist strains in the12/18
U.S while continuously sheepdogging that audience into supporting establishment agendas like the cold war with China legitimizing two-party electoral politics and keeping everyone fixated on vapid culture War there is no more important goal for the oligarchic Empire than securing U.S hegemony by halting the rise of China and there is no figure more effective in manufacturing consent for that goal than Tucker Carlson he gains credibility by appearing13/18
to fight the power then uses that stolen credibility to help manufacture consent for the most high priority agendas of the powerful and that's just the sort of behavior you'd expect from someone whose life has been full of Highly Shady overlap with the Central Intelligence Agency and who has actually admitted to having applied to join the CIA Carlson introduced bolsonaro as a leader who opposes quote allowing14/18
Brazil to become a colony of China implanting the idea that this is a real thing in his gullible audience's mind China is taking over the world and the powerful political and media Elites wanted to take over the world so the best way to fight those Elites is to support the fight against China never mind the fact that the Pentagon says openly that China is America's number15/18
one enemy and that the entire political media class is firmly in alignment with the agenda to stop it the propaganda campaign against China has been quietly heating up on the back burner while everyone focuses on Russia and Ukraine every so often I mentioned China on social media and the responses I get from those who listen to Tucker Carlson and his fellow right populist pundits are just16/18
appalling in their stupidity and their white hot emotionality I am really not looking forward to when the Imperial crosshairs moved to Beijing partly for the self-evident reason that this will be extremely dangerous and economically disastrous but also because getting swarmed by all these brainwashed dupes in my replies is going to be excruciating they've already been made crazy and they're going to be driven a whole lot17/18
crazier as this propaganda campaign gains more and more momentum if you have fallen for this ruse it's not too late to step back and realize that you haven't been receiving Brave anti-establishment commentary from the single most prominent pundit in the Murdoch press anyone who tells you that the correct response to your instinct that things are messed up is to vote for one of America's two mainstream
