discussion ATRL Fave Tulsi Gabbard Hosts "Tucker Carlson Tonight"

[Bethenny Frankel]

Can y'all please stop kiking over her? She's gone off the rails and is now a full Republican

 

 

[bleuwaffle]

from red scare to tucker, lemme look into ms tulsi

[Jotham]

I never liked her. Progressives see her attack on Kamala during one of the debates as some "yasss queen" moment but her attacks have been thoroughly debunked. And before the 2020 primaries, she was already criticized for her Islamophobic and homophobic views.

 

So I can't say I'm surprised that she's buddying up to Tucker Carlson.

[Element]

Just another piece of proof that the right wing is the ultimate grifting opportunity. People and politicians see huge dollar signs there.

[Horizon Flame]

She has hated gays her entire life just like her father. The majority of us knew her history and that she was garbage. 

[Quiqui4eva]

 

[ClashAndBurn]

Her takedown of Kamala was epic and appreciated since it helped kill her epic failure of a campaign, but it's been nothing but downhill for Miss Gabbard ever since.

[helikesitheymikey]

Tulsi Gabbard is a russian asset. We already knew this.

[ZIVERT]

Not shocking. Tankies and Fascists somehow always manage to meet in the middle

[confide in me]

A loser

[Lil Mxnster]

Another centrist becoming far-right.

 

 

[Sergi91]

But she ended Kamala !!!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

three years later, one is the VP while the other lost her seat and is now on Fox News

Girl pls don't ever speak without making sure you know what comes out of your mouth is factual. Progressives despise her. During the debate, yes maybe we cackled when she dragged kamala but so did the Pete buttigeig stans and anyone else who was stanning any other  dem nominee contender that night. You ain't slick for piling on progressives with that.

She wants so badly to be seen as morally righteous while she espouses republican/russian talking points  you can't make this up

[khalyan]

Progressives HATE Tulsi, IDK why anyone thinks otherwise . She's abysmal.

[Revolution]

Well, she is a far-right Hindu extremist.

Basically. Only one person ever even considered her a fave, and while they do make (admittedly, many) references to the Kamala debate drag, they've otherwise moved on from stanning her ever since she shifted to her right-wing grift.

 

So yeah. OP's just being needlessly inflammatory by calling her an "ATRL fave" when literally nobody uses her beyond that one hilarious debate moment where she was the only one to call out Kamala for her disastrously bad prosecutorial record. And even then, the more she opens her mouth on Tucker Carlson Tonight, the more her credibility rating drops into the negatives.

@rihannabiggestfan your fave ❤️

I think there’s a couple people that stan her in the civics - politics thread but continue to call themselves this uber progressive. If they quote this, you’ll know who I’m talking about

Tulsi "drone warfare is better than boots-on-the-ground" Gabbard is... a tankie? Y'all just be saying anything now.  All this liberalsplaining from the usual suspects on things they continually having no idea about.

They think laughing at a thing a politician once said is "stanning" them because they themselves only look towards people like Clinton and Kamala as celebrity icons and self-esteem figures instead of being interested in getting policy passed through politicians, so the concept that no progressive would actually vote for Tulsi off the fact that she didn't support M4A is foreign to them.

You and I both know that there is a section of the online 'left' that has been friendly towards Tulsi in an extremely disproportionate way because they like her political aesthetic/populist framing. The Jimmy Dore crowd. Then also Krystal Ball etc. And we have people that still betray their sympathies for her on this forum, no point denying that truth. She's made a career dunking on the libs and some leftists like it for the wrong reasons.

Some of these people are willing to call out Tulsi for her disgusting pivot (Krystal), and that is appreciated. But its disingenuous to suggest that she wasn't portrayed as the best alternative to Bernie for much of the primary even as it was obvious that her entire grift was profiting from attacking already unpopular democratic women like Clinton & Warren, while sucking up to more popular figures like Joe Biden & Bernie Sanders.

Yup denying that some lefties adore her is dishonest. Glenn Greenwald and friends love her (you can argue that he is not a leftie anymore but that’s a separate discussion)

Sis, it's literally one person. Why are you afraid to @ them? @rihannabiggestfan

 

Now, I respect the good sis to have any views they want and we agree on several topics.

But I have a feeling they'll disagree with your decision to label them a "leftist" and place that label on them given that they have made it explicitly clear that they're personally both "anti-communist" and "anti-socialism". 

 

In fact, that would make them largely no different to your kind of liberalism, no?

Now I don't claim to know why liberals in their various shades support or don't support Tulsi.

All I do remember is that it was "Bernie or Bust" for a reason. 

I like many leftists voted in 2020 for the only candidate who supported M4A and thankfully it was neither Biden or Tulsi or Warren or Trump or whoever have you. 

 

[LustSpell]

The way people tried stanning this trash during election season  The way her homophobic and transphobic history never stood right with me and I'm glad I saw through that BS.
