Well that is more than a little surprising.  Not unwelcome, just surprising.  I will miss Andreas Katsulas though.  G’kar was the heart of that show for me.

Secretly.

But yet, it’s the white conservatives who actually carry out the attacks, violence towards liberals and minorities far more than liberals since it’s far-right terrorism that’s way up.

Yeah, I’m not buying this. He had way more overt racism and white nationalism on air than what that text had and Fox had no problem airing it for years. Now apparently in one of the texts he also called his boss a C U Next Tuesday, so that’s probably what got him fired. Which is totally valid! You should be fired for d…

Does this guy ever say anything that isn’t mean, racist or misogynist? Surely he must take a break and just order lunch at some point in the day, right?

Yet suddenly I found myself rooting for the mob against the man, hoping they’d hit him harder, kill him. I really wanted them to hurt the kid. I could taste it. Then somewhere deep in my brain, an alarm went off: this isn’t good for me.

He may not have believed all of his own lies, but it takes someone whose at least #teambigot to actually go on the air and spread misinformation the way he did. This more or less confirms he’s the person I’ve always assumed he was.

It’s weird the board is pretending this is a shocking revelation when his show was basically just straight up white supremacy like this every night.

My bet is that it’s the latter portion of that text, where Tucker suggests that the Antifa person might actually a human being, that Fox News knew would offend its viewer base the most.

A few of these stories have come out now, claiming Carlson was fired for behavior and texts that go against progressive and liberal — not conservative — values. There was one that claimed it was because his “prayer talk” freaked out Murdoch and another that claimed it was because of his contributions to a culture of…

“If I reduce people to politics, how am I better than he is? From now on, I’m just gonna stick to reducing people to their race.”

If I don’t care about those things, if I reduce people to their politics, how am I better than he is?

Let’s Get It On is faster. The melody and lyrics are different. You can’t copyright a chord progression. It will be a disaster if he loses. And I doubt he will.

[insert joke about how Sheeran sucks and we’d be better off if he quit music, even though I’ve never listened to any of his music and don’t actually have a negative opinion of him, but it’s fun to jump on bandwagons and pretend like it makes me cool to hate things, and surely no one else here is doing this, right?]

Promise?

Can we get that in some sort of legally binding form, please? Because I’m not sure my heart can take any more broken promises of hope. 

This is a mixed bag. On one hand, you want Ed to win because of the copyright implications. On the other, you want him to lose so he quits music forever. Tough call.

Nope, the joke’s too easy
