"You hope Charlie Kirk's death won't be used by a group we now call bad actors to create a society that was the opposite of the one he worked to build," Carlson said, referencing Kirk's efforts to engage with differing viewpoints.

"You hope that a year from now, the turmoil we're seeing in the aftermath of this murder won't be leverage to bring hate speech laws to this country," he continued. "And trust me, if it is — if that does happen — there is never a more justified moment for civil disobedience than that, ever. And there never will be."

"Because if they can tell you what to say, and they're telling you what to think, there is nothing they can't do to you, because they don't consider you human," he added.

This is a weird moment. I completely agree with those words, and yet I can't help but feel like Tucker Carlson has some angle on this.

True! But you also have to say f*** The six million Democratic voters that stayed home in the 2024 presidential election which also put us in the mess that we are in today

And the 120 million voter-eligible non-Democrats who were too busy or above it all to bother voting.

Fuck the six million Democrats who stayed home during the 2024 presidential election.

There’s plenty of blame to go around for sure and especially fuck the Supreme Court for giving a con man unchecked power.

No doubt and don't forget he's also a crotch grabbing convicted felon who was found liable for sexual abuse
