      I got the same feeling a lot with Tucker, where he’d say something so specific and so contrary to reality, that there must have been a point to it. I think a part of it is to inoculate the audience against criticism, doubt, and introspection. You flip around, or simply bring up and immediately dismiss what’s actually a strong argument against your position, so that people don’t take it seriously when it comes up outside of the echo chamber.
