Ep. 2471 - MASK OFF: Commie Carlson

Folks, I've been saying for a long time, Tucker Carlson is not conservative. He is not conservative. Now, many people didn't believe me. I get it.

The Tucker Carlson from Fox News, the guy who says he hates illegal immigration, the one who campaigned with President Trump. Yeah, that guy. Well, yesterday, Tucker Carlson laid bare his true beliefs.

The mask is pretty much totally off at this point. He no longer even really pretends to be conservative. Tucker Carlson believes that the American system of economics is rigged by conspiratorial powers, that we're in the middle of a class war,

and that you are being distracted by all those unimportant issues, you know, like trans or BLM. You know, just the way

all the Democratic socialists say. Now, why is this important? Because we are still in a battle for the soul of the conservative movement.

And Tucker is still in the ear of many people in the White House. Listen, too many people remember the Tucker from Fox News,

or maybe the Tucker from CNN, or maybe the Tucker from MSNBC. They think, hey, that guy seemed like a conservative,

and this guy looks physically like that guy. But here is the thing. Tucker Carlson is not conservative. He just isn't.

Now, you can listen to Tucker all you want. I get it. He's entertaining and he's bizarrely fascinating. And he does an amazing job of pretending.

He has access to all the conspiratorial secrets of the universe. Also, he sells nicotine pouches made in India. But here's the thing. Age him up about 10 years.

Give him a Brooklyn accent. And he's basically Bernie Sanders. I have the video to prove it. I'll explain in just one moment.

Plus, we'll get to Candace Owens apparently getting scammed for 10 grand, Jews getting stabbed in Zorn Mamdani's New York, and Elon Musk taking on the European media. All that and more on today's Ben Shapiro show.

Okay, so yesterday, Tucker Carlson did an interview with Stephen A. Smith. Pretty interesting from a wide variety of perspectives. Tucker talked about how he had basically

given up on Trump over Iran, which we knew since he called him the Antichrist, and how the country is being run by a secret cabal. You know, all the usual Tucker stuff.

But there is something he said that is making some waves because the mask is off and it shows who Tucker truly is, a left-wing conspiracy theorist, basically Bernie Sanders. All right, enough of the buildup. Here's the clip. The true crisis in the country, which has nothing to do with race and has to do with economics and the people benefiting from the private equity scams and the crypto scams and all the other scams underway in the American economy. We don't really produce anything. We just lend money at high interest, sell real estate again and again.

those people are getting richer than everyone else the billionaire class and they don't want to deal with questions about how exactly this works why are they paying half the taxes that you're paying as a wage earner like i don't really get that and they don't want to have to defend it so instead they're like the real problem is race right and so in a normal country you just

like have a revolution people like i'm not putting up with this but in our country because our every conversation is controlled by the media filter we don't even know what's happening and so people are like, well, my life sucks. It must be the whites or some whites are like it must be the blacks or whatever. It's like this is racial foment. This is racial conflict, which is created

by the people who are taking all the money. Tucker is just a Marxist. It's not a slur. It's a genuine description of his worldview. He believes in class conflict. He believes that all the outcomes are rigged by the rigged system. He believes that they, wink, wink, are rigging the system by getting you all hot and bothered about trans and Black Lives Matter

racial divisions that you'll be distracted from the gigantic sucking sound from the rich people who are screwing you. I mean, who does that sound like? I'm having a time. Who does it? The worst fear that the ruling class in this country has is that Americans, black, white, Latino, urban and rural, gay and straight, young and old, that all of us will come together to

demand a government that represents all of the people in our country, not just the wealthy few. The oligarch's nightmare is that we will not allow ourselves to be divided up by race, religion, sexual orientation, or country of origin, and we'll together have the courage to take them on. Will this struggle be easy? Absolutely not. And one of the reasons for that

is that the ruling class of this country will constantly remind you that they have all the power. They control the government. They own the media. You want to take us on? Good luck, they will say. There is nothing you can do about it. Hey, Tucker and Bernie are indistinguishable. If you just switch the inflections, they sound the same. Now, Tucker does this routine all the

time. But when he's called on this, that is me, a socialist. Right. But I'm just wondering, do people who generally like the free market argue in favor of feudalism? Again, this is the classic principle of actually how you get a king, right? Because they're generally generationally invested in the well-being of the land they're ruling,

the people they're ruling, and they have the power to control the outcomes there. So if you actually care about that, if you're actually going to benefit, why not invest your control and actually producing a better population. I completely agree.

I mean, feudalism is so much better than what we have now because at least in feudalism, the leader is vested in the prosperity of the people he rules. Right.

If all your serfs die, you starve. Yeah, there's a true incentive to care for those people. I'm not saying that I just like capital. I love, as an American, I love capitalism.

I hate capitalism, but I also, but I love it because I don't want to be called a socialist, but I really, really hate it. I mean, really deep down.

Here he was in 2019.
