    Gonna try and put it as plainly as I can:

    He is a con man. Famous for dressing up a nugget of truth in a wardrobe of lies. You cannot take a single word he says at face value.

    Therefore, you don’t post links to him if you want anyone to listen—it’s unlikely anyone will even click.

    If the point he is making has any merit whatsoever, you will find another, more trustworthy source. Especially because you cannot take a word he says at face value, you will have fact checked his points, right? So you should already have some reliable sources handy.

    Not doing this only helps the con man and discredits your point, because if you cared about the point being made you would simply use a source people generally trust, and entirely avoid this whole chain of discussion.

    And I’m sorry, but if you don’t think Tucker Carlson is bought and paid for by every possible corporate interest, I’ve got some magic beans to sell you.
