Here’s a clip pointing out tucker carlson’s hypocrisy about this scenario vs a teacher giving a teenager a lap dance in class:
https://fb.watch/fL0COKyqu8/tucker’s not actually concerned about sexualizing children. He’s just trying to drum up a little extra transphobia.
What does he have to do with the wider debate this has sparked?
tucker’s show is among the widest watched in the USA. It IS the wider debate. And he’s a complete hypocrite, completely unconcerned with sexualizing children and focused on boosting transphobia.
How can one man be the wider debate? Most people probably don't even know that Tucker has even weighed into this. I didn't know until this thread was posted.
Because he has the second highest audience of a nightly show at 3.2 Million viewers. He’s the right wing troll reason why this story has been amplified throughout the internet vs just being some local news blurb in nowheresville Ontario.
A teacher wearing massive, cartoonishly huge prosthetic sex toy tits while teaching kids is hardly a local news blurb.
Being popular doesn't mean anything. A lot of people who disagree with him might watch his show because they want to know what his opinions are. A lot of people who agree with him might watch his show because they want to know what his opinions are. I have no idea what he's actually said on the matter, but if his likes grossly exceed his dislikes on Youtube for example on one of his rants then it's a clear sign of public discontent towards the subject of his rant with many people agreeing with him.
I don't even know what transphobic stuff he's said too (if he has), but to be transphobic you need to actually dislike trans people themselves......not kick up a stink over sex toys/fetish attire in a classroom. It's a separate issue.
It's like when people are called transphobic for question why someone who's 6 foot 2 can compete against women in swimming (an issue with physical size as an ex male and not being trans itself)
It's like being called transphobic for debating the reason why people with autism seem more likely to be trans (an issue with a development disorder conflicting with hormones and not being trans itself)
It's like being called transphobic when people object to non standard personal pronouns because it goes against what they understand about the English language and/or issues with memory, social anxiety or autism. (again not transphobia)
All this I've seen on WP very recently. I hope this thread isn't going the same route.
