Never knew the Tuck was so sensitive. :)
Remember when these guys would unironically refer to liberals as snowflakes?

Now the mere act of someone wearing a mask near him fills him with fear, anger, and disgust. That’s right - someone dressing in a way he disapproves of makes him want to call armed agents of the government to force that person to stop.

I know really he’s just playing a character and doesn’t actually believe any of this, but presumably at least some of his audience thinks he’s sincere. Don’t they hate snowflakes like him? (Rhetorical question)

Well I think his point is that because liberals can’t control their emotions and feelings when Tucker Carlson makes them mad he draws conservatives to watch him. He apparently did not take the time to think about if that meant conservatives can’t control their emotions and feelings because when you think about it that’s way weirder.

Imagine watching a TV show because it makes you happy thinking that someone else is watching it and feeling sad. What sort of psycho does that.
1prophet does that it seems....but then I guess we can see that from his posts.

a friend of mine used to bring salt & vinegar potato chips to guys meetups. Not because he liked salt & vinegar chips, he didn’t mind them but everyone else hated them.
even this is not as evil as watching something for the sole purpose of making someone else sad.

Also what kind of monster doesn’t like salt and vinegar potato chips, objectively the best potato chip?

My daughter's PreK doesn't make the kids wear masks, but my daughter wears hers at least one day a week because she likes to for some reason. She has never had an issue with them, even when we spent 7 full days at Disney when she was wearing them for 12 hours.

It's adults acting like babies that make kids not want to wear masks.

The only person I’ve been able to find in history who doesn’t think salt and vinegar are the best was Hitler. You may be number two. Maybe it’s just a coincidence but…

I'm "meh" on them at best.
I'd never buy them myself, but if they are the only chip left in the pantry...

You are all terribly wrong. The potato chip order clearly goes:

1) salt and vinegar
2) jalapeño (and jalapeño adjacent flavors)
3) sour cream and onion
4) barbecue
5) plain
6) pledging your soul to Satan
7) all other flavors

Holy shit this is a wildly accurate list. Perhaps most accurate list ever posted to P&N.

Full disclosure, I have, on more than one occasion, binged on so many perfect (salt and vinegar to the uninitiated) potato chips that I have sloughed off parts of the lining on my mouth.

That is the one and only downside to salt and vinegar chips - if I eat as many as I want to I inflict significant damage on the roof of my mouth.

Just wish O'Grady's was still being made. Luckily Old Dutch comes close to the same flavour and crunchiness

I mean the options of truly horrific people on the GQP side is immense. Tucker, Hannity, Murdoch, Ingraham, Dobbs, Trump, Trump Jr, Cruz, Hawley, Greene, Boebert, McConnell and on and on and on.

Sure the Dems have some douchebags, but the right just takes it to another level of hideousness.

He might want to take a look at the top two numbers in "cases by age group" on this screenshot I just took.

He's a dumb Mother Tucker.
