JD Vance’s campaign said he “doesn’t believe in guilt-by-association cancel culture” but doesn’t share the views of Tucker Carlson’s guest, who claimed the Holocaust was not premeditated genocide.

When you’re not able to denounce people who promote actual Nazis you’re way outside the realm of what’s acceptable.

    You don’t need to add the layer of separation:

    If you promote a Nazi, you’re a Nazi. I call it the transitive property of Naziism.

    “Look, if I start denouncing Nazis and Holocaust deniers, I’m going to run out of friends very quickly. At this point, they’re the only people who even like me. I mean, maybe some other people like me. Have the alt-right incels gotten over the crossdressing and mascara yet?”

      All the reason why voting in November is so important. We need to show these nazi muffins that this shit is unacceptable, and throttle them to the point where there is a necessary overhaul of their entire party.

    It’s not like they are just guys who happen to know each other like they are in the same bowling league. And it is not like he invited the guy on to talk about the weather and then he went off on a whole Nazi tangent of his own accord. Tucker knew who he was, liked the things he says, and invited him on his show to specifically spread his words to his audiences. He intentionally platformed a Nazi. That is not “guilt-by-association”. That is guilt-by-your-own-actions. Also known as guilt, and full on Nazi shit.

    “We are very, very close to being able to ignore Trump most nights,” he wrote in a text sent on 4 January 2021. “I truly can’t wait.”

    “I hate him passionately,” he added.

    I’m so excited to see Vance and Carlson get into a SpaceX rocket with Elon Musk and fire themselves off to Mars together, once this election is over.
