Turn Pushers of This 'Anti-White' Conspiracy Theory Into Pariahs

All ideas are not created equal.

Even the most ardent free speech supporter should be able to make the distinction between “censorship” and marginalizing the worst ideas as beyond the pale—and to make proponents of those ideas unwelcome in polite society.

The tragedy in Buffalo has once again turned attention to the rise of so-called “great replacement theory” on the right. As with previous white supremacist terrorists—from the 2019 Christchurch shooter to the 1995 Oklahoma City bomber, the killer was animated by a noxious brew of ideas centered around the claim that there is a deliberate plot to commit to genocide against white Americans—using non-white immigration as its supposed primary means.

Tucker Carlson, the most watched cable news host in the country, has repeatedly endorsed the basic tenets of replacement theory. He does not even shy away from using the term, denouncing “the replacement of legacy Americans with more obedient people from far away countries.”

Carlson’s allusions are heavily sanitized and rarely cross the line into explicitly racial terms, though they often tiptoe right up to the line—like when he said immigrants are making America “dirtier.” And unlike the much more extreme sources cited by radicalized terrorists, Carlson does not posit that the globalist elite plot to alter America’s demographics is being run by the Jews.

The much more proximate influences on white supremacist terrorists can be found in online communities of openly avowed neo-nazis. It is this material that fills the rambling manifestos of many of the deranged killers. The relationship between such fringe environments and the xenophobic political messages that are broadcast to much larger audiences should not be overstated.

But what are we to make of the mainstreaming of replacement theory and its relationship to individual acts of terrorism committed by radicalized extremists who buy into it? Is it cancel culture run amok to draw a line from those who promote replacement theory to the actions of these terrorists and their rambling manifestos?

No, it’s not.

1. The problem?

They will call this guy a nutter and continue to embrace the sentiment. It’s a badge of honor. They have no moral compass. No shame. They are unabashed white nationalists, and now they can say the quiet part out loud.

Do you really expect Stefanik to walk backer her pedo grifter comment ? Who’s going to condemn tucker Carlson? Ain’t gonna happen. These people are full on nazis and proud of it.

2. That is insane. Only the right would try to say that.

There is a HUGE line connecting those who spew that crap to those weak egoed fools who are so desperate for someone to blame for their own shortcomings (other than themselves) that they will believe anything. Their hypocrisy on the subject of 'cancel culture' is laughable to say the least.
