The post-Trump fascist creep catch-all thread

Tucker Carlson's White Power Hour continues its steady march into open white nationalism.

This time, Carlson is parroting the elements of "White Replacement Theory", the idea that liberals intend to take political power in this country by importing or outbreeding white Americans.

White nationalists are thrilled to see their talking points on primetime television:

Quote:

White nationalist website calls Tucker Carlson’s ‘replacement’ rant ‘one of the best things Fox News has ever aired’
The Fox News host has won the praise of an officially designated hate group after appearing to endorse the racist ‘replacement’ theory

You may be familiar with this type of rhetoric from the manifesto of several mass shooters in recent memory. The language that white people are experiencing a soft genocide is exactly the justification at the root of white nationalist and fascistic terrorism that is currently in vogue. You may also recall the chants of "you will not replace us" during the neo-nazi rally held in Charlottesville that ended in a terrorist attack perpetrated by a white nationalist.

Seems the mainstream right is not seeing the Trump loss as a repudiation of their increasingly white nationalist, fascistic politics, but rather are doubling down.
