Is Tucker Carlson hiding the meat?
No, I’m not just trying to be cheeky, I’m legitimately curious why so many podcasters I listen to have seemingly ignored a VERY odd “interview” Tucker Carlson allowed Kevin Spacey’s “fictional” character, Frank Underwood, to give. Why did Tucker do this? Keep reading, because a conversation with a friend may have led me to figure this one out.
For some helpful context, here’s a link from 2020 detailing the strange history of Spacey’s Underwood LARP:
It’s been a while since we’ve seen Kevin Spacey. The actor has been accused of sexual misconduct many times over the past couple of years. And he dropped out of the public spotlight, only to occasionally resurface in a series of videos that some call creepy, others find disturbing, and a few find quite bewildering. Channeling his Frank Underwood persona, the actor has seemingly made threats to his accusers, while attempting to deny some of his actions. He dropped his first Christmas Video on December 24, 2018 and followed that up with a second video almost exactly a year later, dropping a fireside chat on Christmas Eve 2019. Now, he arrives with his third annual Christmas video. This one is a bit more somber, as he drops the Frank Underwood impression while reaching out to those individuals who are suffering in 2020.
When you have done the kind of work that I have done researching the psychopath class, you start understanding the kind of cat/mouse games they like to play with prey, but this one genuinely stumped me. Why would Tucker take this kind of risk with his conservative followers, followers who SHOULD know how Spacey connects to Jeffrey Epstein, and how Epstein connects to that little disruption to our lives we all experienced in 2020. Remember that?
Since I’ve reframed my political cynicism and redirected my energies into a form of engagement I call hyper-localism, the national media dynamics–which includes personalities like Tucker–really bores me, but I can’t ignore the forces that exert local control by controlling the minds of local people who STILL find comfort in sucking on Binky, which is how I see ANYONE investing energy in the Trump/Biden show.
Though mostly bored by this bullshit, I do try and track the geopolitical path to WWIII going hot, so when Tucker got Putin to wax poetic on Crimea for hours and hours, I kept my ears open for any Tucker skepticism on the platforms that I regularly listen to, but I didn’t hear ANY mention of what Tucker may have been signaling by pretending to interview Spacey’s Frank Underwood character.
It wasn’t until that conversation with a friend, who told me how Tucker was supposedly a target of a paid assassination attempt, that things finally clicked. I’ll get to what I think Tucker was doing with Kevin Spacey after this quote about the alleged plot:
So, what’s going on here? I have two ideas. The first one assumes a certain amount of “realness” between the Russia/America conflict playing out in Ukraine, and in this scenario Tucker KNEW his Putin interview was opposed by the intelligence community, which meant that some kind of attempt on his life was indeed possible, so the Underwood interview was signaling to that opposition that Tucker has some GOOD DIRT from the blackmail archives of Epstein. Kill Carlson, trigger the deadman’s switch, is potentially how this leverage could have been used.
The other idea is derived from the cynical perception that nation-states are run by globalist versions of professional wrestlers, so in this scenario Tucker Carlson is being propped up and given an exciting THREAT narrative in order to sheep-dip him with dipshits.
Sheep-dipping? One definition I found online provides a curious example, which I’ll get to after the definition, which is this:
The phrase “sheep dipped”, is commonly used in intelligence circles. It’s a way of saying someone has been given an alternate identity. The best known example being Air America, but also in many other covert ops applications. Not necessarily military.
No, not necessarily military. Right, Dick?
Dick, you may have guessed, is Tucker’s Daddy, and it wasn’t AIR America he headed, but VOICE of America, which has this as a part of its history:
The Office of War Information, when organized in the middle of 1942, officially took over VOA’s operations. VOA reached an agreement with the British Broadcasting Corporation to share medium-wave transmitters in Great Britain, and expanded into Tunis in North Africa and Palermo and Bari, Italy, as the Allies captured these territories. The OWI also set up the American Broadcasting Station in Europe. Asian transmissions started with one transmitter in California in 1941; services were expanded by adding transmitters in Hawaii and, after recapture, the Philippines.
By the end of the war, VOA had 39 transmitters and provided service in 40 languages. Programming was broadcast from production centers in New York and San Francisco, with more than 1,000 programs originating from New York. Programming consisted of music, news, commentary, and relays of U.S. domestic programming, in addition to specialized VOA programming. About half of VOA’s services, including the Arabic service, were discontinued in 1945. In late 1945, VOA was transferred to the US Department of State.
Some people think it’s cruel to allow children to believe in fantasies, like Santa Claus. I agree, because this just might be setting up those kids to CONTINUE BELIEVING in make-believe bullshit, like Tucker giving Americans genuine narratives about heads of state, like Putin.
Thanks for reading!
