Re: Fuentes, Carlson and their ilk: the problem is not the money-grubbing media; it is the vast bigot population seeking comfort and confirmation in the "fellowship of kindred souls." My eyes were opened to this problem when Trump won the nomination in 2016 on a purely racist appeal. Thank God he is destroying the nation economically; even bigots are cost-conscious.
Most of my relatives perished during the holocaust but I don’t take offense form idiot who doesn’t offend me. We do need to pay close attention and not underestimate how hate has metastasized, for if we do not it will be at our own peril. My remaining aunt said “every generation they come for us.”

any media, even the so-called respectable media, lives off screaming or attention seeking headlines that capture readers/audiences and hence - given enough volume - advertisers.

the real problem is the global reach of any old nutty Hyde Park Corner soap box expouser of views with no legal constraints.

governments need to apply the same laws that hold for traditional media to the new (Internet based) media (social or otherwise) because if the same economics.
Thank you for your insightful summary. I agree with you that the media companies monetize extremist figures. However the fact that there’s a large and growing audience for people like Fuentes speaks to the moral decay of our society.
I really enjoyed this and learned enough to know I don’t have to listen to Fuentes ever. I think he must be more of a train wreck that captivates people. I would note that while White Nationalism is vile and does indeed separate us into US and THEM, the same case if s there for Identity Politics - which I blame on Obama.
I remember a black man, posting on a YouTube video, the day after Trump won in November of 24, and how that post had a profound effect on this white woman!
He stated he'd been part of this group and was courted and accepted. He voted for Trump. The next day, after Trump's victory, he posted that he went on the same platform to celebrate and was told he was not welcome nor would ever be.
I've since asked for these people, of color, gender, anything, that experienced the same shameful experience, that certainly wasn't their fault, entirely, to speak up and out. To whom, I'm not sure, but someone should be asking that question and providing the platform necessary to get their stories and experiences to counteract the rhetoric of one virgin male child.
Whether it helps or not I'm no expert but the more people understand how one is viewed and for what worth they represent after their use date is up, the more will push back, with help, against this rancid vile BS, there may be.
As a European and someone who was born in a country with a totalitarian history and my grandparents' real experiences with Nazism and the horror of the Holocaust, I am watching the rise of these ideas all over the world. 20 years ago, the idea of a MAGA nationalist USA would have sounded like a sci-fi dystopia. I am trying to understand the nature of nationalism in the USA in the context of what it has in Europe. American nationalism is certainly different in many ways, also due to the lack of cultural historical experience. In Europe, supporting extremist movements as nationalism is punishable. I often feel like shouting towards American society: Hey, look how Hitler's NSDA took power in 1933 turned out! Look who liquidated democracy for months and used government by decree to do so! Hey, look, the parallel is the same and history shows how bad it will turn out! Unfortunately, here in Europe I am now watching a real remake of a movie about how to break up civil society and then unleash global hell. The worst thing is that MAGA exports are heading to Europe with the help of techno-feudalists, and from the other side, the death of Neo-Stalinism is breathing down our necks. Those who don't know history are forced to repeat it.
these are really just transparent efforts to tar Republicans with the Hitler/Nazi tag.
.
kind of discouraging. Is that, and EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN all anyone has for reasons to vote Democrat?
.
I guess Democrats refuse to look at why they lost; refuse to reconsider their more extreme policies like wide-open borders, bio boys in girls sports & locker rooms, juvenile trans surgery etc.
I agree that excessive woke policies & behaviour created a reaction and those "progressives" in their blinkered minds will lose election after election.

only ICE's behaviour, the health care bs and the economy may get them some seats in either of both houses.

There should be a button saying “Upgrade.”
So Nick Fuentes claims to be a virgin and, at the same time, complains there’s not enough white births??
Exactly!
In some ways it may be good to have him on a platform like Morgan's, which is far afield from his norm. It lets some see just how vile he is.

better education might help, too.

There’s not much restriction on traditional media. The NYT can write pretty much whatever they want.
It’s alarming that Fuentes has got yet another interview based on the one with Tucker Carlson.
Maybe NYT is next!

Sounds awful. 😞
I thought so....

Fuentes played Morgan for the huckster he is. “I think it was more than 6 million, maybe 10 million.” Lmap
