Or take the infamous Carlson quote, "Iraq is a crappy place filled with, you know, semiliterate, primitive monkeys." Calling that racist isn't an example of pc leftist concept creep. That's the real deal. — PolitiTweet.org

In the abstract, when I say, "How do you feel about the kind of person who spreads hysteria about refugees?" something negative probably comes to mind. Well, is that clip not spreading hysteria about refugees? It's awful. — PolitiTweet.org

This is a man who broadcasts sweeping pejorative generalizations about ethnic minority groups at the drop of a hat. In what world do any of you think the deliberately sensationalistic hearsay broadcast at beginning of this segment is responsible? https://t.co/tA4SEweh4i — PolitiTweet.org

If I tried my hardest to defend Tucker Carlson's Fox News show, I could not mount an intellectually honest defense, because it so frequently broadcasts content that is indefensible. And whatever you think of the New York Times doesn't make that any less true. — PolitiTweet.org

This is from a 2019 journal article on British and Canadian schools. Question: is this a description of what's going on in the U.S. that folks on the right, left, and center would agree on, or dispute, or would opinion be all mixed up? (FWIW this seems somewhat off to me.) https://t.co/6qO57BDVyq — PolitiTweet.org
