Two years of lockdowns has changed everything
There’s no question that the coronavirus lockdowns accelerated the transformation of the United States.
Tucker compares the United States we live in now with the one pre-pandemic, and has a look at the other crises you’re not supposed to question or even know about because coronavirus and Ukraine. Highlights include:
“Think back to the America you grew up in. There were 3 things you knew about that country: It was a free country. It was a middle-class country, it was defined by small business. And it was a Constitutional country. Our politicians were limited by the guard rails in our founding documents, they couldn’t go past that. So, it was a happy place.”
“Unfortunately, none of those 3 things is still true about the United States, and lockdowns are not entirely to blame for that, no single cause ever is. But there’s no question that the coronavirus lockdowns accelerated the transformation of the United States.”

“Masks were a training exercise. Mandatory masking was a shock collar designed to teach Americans unquestioning obedience, and of course it worked because shock collars do work. In a single day last month, we watched, for example, our entire professional class dutifully change their twitter avatars from ‘Mask Up!’ to the now mandatory Ukrainian flag. There was no debate about doing this, no reflection, there was not even a real conversation, they just did it. Millions of people simply assumed, reflexively, a partisan position in a highly complicated foreign crisis, the next crisis, and as they did they moved in perfect lockstep.”
“Once we allowed political leaders to force Americans to take drugs they didn’t want, the old arrangement where the citizen had as much or more power than the leaders was over. Our politicians now have effectively limitless power, and they know that. They know it perfectly well, that’s why they did it. And if you doubt that they know it, watch the way they communicate with the American population.”
“They’re giving you propaganda, they always have. What’s changed is that their propaganda is no longer sophisticated or persuasive because it doesn’t have to be. Instead, their propaganda is blunt and vulgar.”
“It turns out one of the biggest stories of the decade dropped this morning. The Wall Street Journal reported that Saudi Arabia is considering accepting Chinese currency rather than US dollars for its oil sales to China. Now, why is that a big deal, seems like some little financial story? Well, because it would spell the end of the petrodollar.”
“The petrodollar is one of the keys to the United States’ wealth.”
“Saudi Arabia has traded oil exclusively in US dollars for nearly half a century, and that is one of the key reasons the United States has the highest living standard of any big country in the world despite the fact that our manufacturing sector long ago collapsed. Petrodollars allow our government, in short, to spend money that we don’t have, and that money pays for an awful lot of what we have.”
“Is it really just the virus that’s causing this behavior? Yes, say the propagandists at the Washington Post. It definitely is, it’s definitely not a trade war brought on by the Biden administration’s incompetence in international affairs. We’re not suffering for the fact that they don’t know what they’re doing. No, it’s just a virus.”

Tucker: We’re Back.
At the most basic level, the news you consume is a lie, a lie of the stealthiest and most insidious kind. Facts have been withheld on purpose, along with proportion and perspective. You are being manipulated.
Tucker again lays into the media propaganda machine as he announces he’s taking the show to Twitter. Highlights include:
“You often hear people say that news is full of lies, but most of the time, that’s not exactly right. Much of what you see on television or read in the New York Times is, in fact, true in the ‘literal’ sense, it could pass one of the media’s own ‘fact checks.’ Lawyers would be willing to sign off on it, in fact they may have. But that doesn’t make it true. It’s not true.”

“The best you can hope for in the news business at this point is the freedom to tell the fullest truth that you can, but there are always limits, and you know that if you bump up against those limits often enough, you will be fired for it. That’s not a guess, it’s guaranteed. Every person who works in the English language media understands that. The rule of what you can’t say defines everything. It’s filthy, really, and it’s utterly corrupting.”
“For the most part, the news that you see analyzed on Twitter comes from media organizations that are themselves thinly disguised propaganda outlets. You see it on cable news, you talk about it on Twitter. The result may feel like a debate, but actually the gatekeepers are still in charge. We think that’s a bad system. We know exactly how it works, and we’re sick of it.”

Tucker: See you soon
When honest people say what’s true calmly and without embarrassment, they become powerful. At the same time, the liars who’ve been trying to silence them shrink.
Oh gosh, I’m using Twitter. Tucker dropped a video today on his Twitter account, again commenting on the current state of US media and finishing with a hopeful “See you soon.” Highlights include:
“One of the first things you realize when you step outside the noise for a few days is how many genuinely nice people there are in this country, kind and decent people, people who really care about what’s true, and a bunch of hilarious people also, a lot of those, it’s gotta be the majority of the population, even now, so that’s heartening. The other thing you notice when you take a little time off is how unbelievably stupid most of the debates you see on television are…”
“Both political parties and their donors have reached consensus on what benefits them and they actively collude to shut down any conversation about it. Suddenly, the United States looks very much like a one party state. That’s a depressing realization, but it’s not permanent. Our current orthodoxies won’t last. They’re brain dead.”

“This moment is too inherently ridiculous to continue, and so it won’t. The people in charge know this, that’s why they’re hysterical and aggressive. They’re afraid. They’ve given up persuasion, they’re resorting to force. But it won’t work. When honest people say what’s true calmly and without embarrassment, they become powerful. At the same time, the liars who’ve been trying to silence them shrink, and they become weaker. That’s the iron law of the universe, true things prevail.”
