All right wing populist demagogue blather. Refreshing compared to the Fox corporatist shill stuff, but not to be compared to serious analysis. In the end he points to nothing real, he's just in it for the eyeballs, which he can get by using the rest of Fox as a foil.
I disagree. The guy deals with serious issues in a time frame and platform which are usually associated with fluff. For instance: ventilating the convergence of Detroit and rural America.
Additionally the guy is not rigid.

Being non-rigid may indicate an open mind, or it may indicate a go-where-the-winds-blow strategy. Guess which theory I favor....

Only confirms the difficulty of having anything to say, debate re race.

No.

It's always the right wing that insists there is stuff to debate about race, and it quickly slides into THEY are against US, when it doesn't just constitute full-fledged race-baiting. Carlson simply panders to such anxiety. Usually tries to keep it deniable.

I wonder how many Black Hebrew Israelites have actually been to Israel at any point in their lives?

No, this does not make me a racist.

There's nothing sillier about Black Hebrew Israelites than there is about any other flavor of religiosity, and far as the religiosity goes. Using it as justification for getting all obnoxious is of course extra silly.

I agree with your first sentence. They are regular here in Brooklyn. They are not only silly but extremely obnoxious equal opportunity offenders; notice - Uncle Tomahawkers in reference to the Native Americans.



I believe you are still missing the essence of reaction...How could such a obnoxious group be omiited from a presentation which is intended to depict intolerance? That is the story...the omission.

What did they have video of? The video drove the initial reporting and social media reaction.

[apologies for letting phone-mangled text go uncorrected so long]

No. No self-respecting right wing lunatic would ever be caught dead in an Oakland Raiders shirt.
