The Labyrinth: critical theory, culture, and politics

The false salvation of Tucker Carlson


Listen Later

I listened to his Turning Point speech…and I have some thoughts.

So…talking about Tucker Carlson and President Trump. I think Tucker is going to be the follow up guy to Trump. To put it simply.

Also…Tucker is better at playing politics…

Anway…in this one I talk about how they both weaponize aesthetics and catharsis in order to replace real potential political solutions (I’m speaking into the void on this one). They don’t want to solve systemic problems…their politics run on spectacle, not substance.

All i’m saying…think about what really gets the “elites” scared? It’s always someone who represents real change. Who often represents real change? Someone that is backed by the average voter AND has proposed solutions for systemic change.

Stay curious.
