Apologies if this has been shared already. I haven’t watched Fox or Tucker Carlson before - I know they are biased obviously - but he did seem to grasp the wider problem of the ideology in terms of making people lie and affecting how you think being dangerous etc.

'The question asked of Judge Brown Jackson was a complete "gotcha" question that had nothing to do with her fitness for the position.'

What is a 'gotcha' question?

Posie is constantly criticised for talking to right-wing people, or even standing near them.

But as left-wing platforms won't do it, there's no choice.

I think Posie Parker appearing on Fox News with Tucker Carlson demonstrates a lack of judgement on her part. I fear it will erode rather than strengthen support for her point of view.

Hmm, the link above did work just then. No idea why I couldn’t get to it before!

'I'm not a vet, but I know what a dog is'

I hope Posy puts it on a T shirt. It would sell thousands. 😁

I saw an email from Standing For Women that said they were going to put it on a t-shirt. But weirdly, when I tried to get the links on the website to work, they didn’t. Tried on two devices. Hopefully just a glitch.

@timeisnotaline

I also am fiercely gender critical but I won’t watch tucker Carlson. The standard you walk past is the standard you accept, and he’s a master of hypocrisy, I suppose they asked him because he’s such an expert ‘ in terms of making people lie and affecting how you think being dangerous etc’ I wish he could be charged re January 6 personally.

For me, this isn't about Fox News or Tucker Carlson, I don't know anything about him. It's about Posie getting her message out to as wide an audience as possible.

She is pushing for people to be able to speak clearly and not deny the reality they can see in front of them.

If the neutral or left-wing sources won't allow the truth to be spoken we need to find other platforms.

It's why she is promoting her speaker's corner events. It gives a chance to speak to people in public about this issue.

'the obvious spontaneous scorn of oh my god, don't be ridiculous, comes a very close second.'

I agree. She absolutely refuses to play the 'very complex issue, respectful debate' game, and just calls utter nonsense out for what it is.

KittyLeMew · 26/03/2022 08:11

I will watch it to see Posie.

Left wing media (and parties) have deserted women. Ignore the trolling and doxxing of GC women. Gaslight and lie regarding the impact on women of TW in sport, defend the description of rapists as women, tell us puberty blockers are reversible, repeat lies about trans teens and suicide, present transing kids as positive and kind, ignore the impact of single sex space erosion, present sexual assaults on women and teenagers as lies and moral panic, give no coverage to the rape of a woman in a hospital by a TW, tell us TW have women’s bodies, promote columnists who say same sex attraction is transphobic, pay writers with connections to paedophile acceptance groups... They don’t give a FUCK about any woman or girl.

I’ve been a leftie all my life and I feel utterly betrayed by left wing parties and media. But I’m not going to be a Turkey voting for Christmas. Needs must and we need to get the message out there to everyone.

And I will be voting for the party that doesn’t seek to wipe my rights, identity, safety and opportunities or the destruction of a generation of vulnerable teens and children.

A stopped clock is right twice a day.

Not EVERY word uttered by Trump was ridiculous. Not EVERY utterance of Tucker Carter is ridiculous. Probably Putin has told some truths in his lifetime (perhaps he told his mother he loved her? Idk)
To dismiss a media platform with a huge audience is wrong. Well done KJK.

Only 2 years til the Olympics though. One year back on testosterone and then start with the hormone suppression in time for 2024.

Appalonia · 26/03/2022 08:05

So do people who refuse to ever watch anything on Fox News, also refuse to watch GB News as, even though they are the only channel who have had many feminists on and regularly challenge gender ideology, they have also had Nigel Farage on?

timeisnotaline · 26/03/2022 08:00

@MalagaNights

If you don't watch Fox or Tucker Carlson then presumably you have no idea the range of topics they discuss, the people they have on, or the level of scrutiny of ideas?

And your view is based only on what you glean from the framing others give you?

It's a right wing channel so it'll all be right wing slanted, as CNN is left biased. And both appealing to their bases.

I don't watch either as I despise the superficial tribal approach of main stream media, but then I don't claim one side is good and the other side is an evil piece of shit, so I don't think that type of media it's aimed at me.

He sufficiently far out on the scale of awful that reading the US news gives you a fairly regular update on his latest interview, rant, public humiliating of people, beating up on minorities etc etc. although I have just ended my wsj so I won’t get that centre right view on his awfulness as much from now on.
MalagaNights · 26/03/2022 07:31

And you don't have to explain to feminists the evils of Fox news. In fact I hope you don't bother here as this thread is about Posie and not your wider political views.

But maybe you could begin to just imagine: not all feminists share all your views.
And that's OK.

The real question is why isn’t anyone from MSNBC or CNN hosting Posie?

yes.

NotBadConsidering · 25/03/2022 23:55

It’s always the same whenever the right wing media are involved, it’s concern or contempt over them promoting or hosting someone GC. It was the same when Matt Walsh was on Dr Phil and had perfectly legitimate views about the Loudoun County rape case; but instead the focus was on his right wing position.

The real question is why isn’t anyone from MSNBC or CNN hosting Posie? Why are they so anti-women? CNN had Rachel McKinnon/Veronica Ivy on FFS. Posie appearing on Tucker Carlson and Fox News is as much as an indictment on the Left’s hatred of women - particularly opinionated women who won’t toe the party line - and their avoidance of hosting them on air as it is of anything else.

Datun · 25/03/2022 23:47

I have to say, although her 'I'm not a vet, but I know what a dog is' crack was sheer perfection, the obvious spontaneous scorn of oh my god, don't be ridiculous, comes a very close second.

The distain was so clearly genuine it was enough to disarm anyone.

Pallisers · 25/03/2022 23:31

Am I really having to point out the damage Fox News has done to a group of feminists?

Pallisers · 25/03/2022 23:30

posie parker on Tucker Carlson.

Look most likely we agree completely on the gender critical stuff. I'll do a lot for the cause but I won't listen to Fox News and I won't accept that thinking Fox News and Tucker Carlson are threats to the democracy in which I live is unnuanced thinking. When you see evil you should call it out.

And Malaga, nothing you listed there has any relevance to Fox New's agenda and content. They were hardly saying "well I know Trump is wrong on many things but he did make a good point about xyz" or "we understand BLM but we have some concerns" Those nuanced thoughts belong to other commentators- not them.

ScreamingMeMe · 25/03/2022 23:13

But the topic of this thread is Tucker Carlson

Actually I think it's Posie Parker.

MalagaNights · 25/03/2022 22:54

If you were against vaccine mandates: vaccine denier.

If you thought Trump made a good point on anything: Trump supporter.

If you didn't agree Jan 6th was a pearl harbor level disaster: insurrection apologist.

If you have any concerns about the BLM movement: racist frother.

If you don't think trans women are women: transphobic piece of shit.

It's all the same. Lack of nuance, easy dismissive slurs, good/bad thinking.

If you engage in any of the simplistic side taking above, you can't complain when it gets aimed at you.

Pallisers · 25/03/2022 22:38

You need to aim some of your rage at them.

I have plenty of rage for them and have directed it in real life and on other threads. But the topic of this thread is Tucker Carlson. He is a piece of shit imo and nothing would make me watch Fox News - the lovely people who gave us Trump, Covid denial, Vaccine denial (the later 2 while shielding themselves and getting the vaccine), Critical Race Theory frothing, riling up the right about BLM, Jan 6 insurrection apologies and the bare-faced lie that the election was stolen. They are a threat to democracy.
