So this story doesn't need a lot of
setup because we all know who
Tucker Carlson is and
what he actually does for Fox News,
which is to put a clean
face on white supremacy.
Here he is yesterday, defending or
perpetuating the white replacement
theory.
>> Now, I know that the left and
all the little gatekeepers
on Twitter become literally
hysterical, if you use the term
replacement, if you suggest that
the Democratic Party is trying to
replace the current electorate,
the voters now casting ballots with
new people, more obedient voters
from the Third World.
But they become hysterical because
that's what's happening actually,
let's just say it, that's true.
So this matters on a bunch of
different levels, but
on the most basic level,
it's a voting rights question.
In a democracy,
one person equals one vote.
If you change the population,
you dilute the political power of
the people who live there.
So every time they import a new
voter, I become disenfranchised
as a current voter.
So I don't understand why you
don't understand this.
I mean, everyone wants to make
a racial issue out of it.
Ooh, the white replacement theory.
No, no, no,
this is a voting rights question.
I have less political power because
they're importing a brand new
electorate.
Why should I sit back and
take that?
The power that I have as
an American guaranteed at birth is
one man, one vote, and
they're diluting it.
No, they're not allowed to do that.
Why are we putting up with this?
>> Now for anyone who's not
familiar with the white replacement
theory, I want to read something
from Counter Extremism Project.
They're counterextremism.org and
they define it this way.
They say, ethno-nationalist groups
around the world such as
the American Identity Movement and
Generation Identity profess
the Great Replacement Theory.
These two specific groups claim to
be nonviolent, but
others on the far right have used
the Great Replacement Theory as
justification for violence.
They went on to say, for example,
Brenton Tarrant, who killed 51
people during the attacks on two
mosques in Christchurch, New
Zealand, on March 15, 2019, titled
his manifesto after the theory and
warned of white genocide.
Patrick Crusius,
who killed 21 people at a Walmart
in El Paso,Texas on August 3, 2019,
also subscribed to
the Great Replacement Theory.
Violent white nationalists believe
they are ensuring the survival of
their own race through violence
against other ethnicities, Cenk.
>> Yeah, so
I am going to show to you why this
is about race.
So, of course,
whenever Tucker Carlson and
Fox News says something racist,
they immediately say, well, no,
it's not about race.
They're replacing us as voters.
Okay, well, who is they?
Well, he says, well,
it's not about race.
So what, I guess it's about
political ideology?
But how do you know what their
political ideology is?
So the only thing you know about
them is where they're coming from.
And here, think about it this way.
If you're a Republican and
you're truly not racist,
wouldn't you think, good, those
are more potential voters for us.
Well, why don't you think that?
You don't think that because
they're not white, okay?
Because if you think about it,
hey, the Republican party is more
religious.
Latinos are very religious.
You want to talk about
self-reliant?
A guy walks a couple hundreds,
or maybe thousands of miles to get
here, is willing to take the lowest
paying job to help his family.
You want talk about working hard
and family values and
does it all for his family.
I mean you want to talk about
leaving it out in the field.
These could be perfect Republican
voters, so why don't you want
them as your voters?
because they're not white,
that's the only reason.
You know that's the only reason.
You can't come up with
a ideological reason for it.
So by definition, by saying these
people are going to replace us, and
I don't even want their votes,
I'm not even going to try for their
votes, you're basically admitting,
yeah, this is all based on race.
And guys now also important,
historical context.
The reason why the Neo Nazis
chanted the Jews will not replace
us in Charlottesville is because
that's an old Nazi chant.
And the Nazi propaganda was
the Jews are coming in to
replace the pure Germans.
And they're going to do what?
They're going to dilute us.
And how many times did you hear
Tucker Carlson talk about diluting
their political power?
And if you remove the obvious and,
I mean, what a weird term,
replacing.
They're not replacing us, if
anything they're adding on, right?
I mean, George,
if we're talking about facts.
So using the word replacement is
a direct reference to the Nazis.
It doesn't make sense in any
other context.
It's not like we're leaving and
we're going to Mexico.
It's not an actual replacement.
It only makes sense as an allusion
to Nazi propaganda.
And so, I think when they say,
we don't want to dilute our
political power.
Even if you say, hey,
I don't get it,
I've never read history,
I don't know what anti-Semitism is,
I don't know what the Nazis did.
No, I don't want them here, but
it's for ideological grounds, even
though I don't know their ideology.
Even if you say all that,
saying under the logic of they're
going to dilute my political power,
we would never have, not only any
more immigrants in the country,
we wouldn't have any more babies in
the country.
They're diluting our
political power.
Now, do Republicans say that?
No, they don't.
Well, King and
a couple of times Fox News anchors
have said, well,
we don't want their babies, okay?
[LAUGH] But our babies,
we gotta be producing more.
In fact, Tucker said that, we gotta
be producing more of our babies.
What happened?
Those babies are going to dilute
your political power, Tucker.
>> Yeah, they've been saying this
for a while.
This is the other question
that comes up.
How are they replacing you with
votes?
So are you saying these
are illegal voters?
That anybody who comes to
the country is being just given
voting cards?
I'm not sure if the discussion
started with them supporting these
anti-voting bills that are going
across the country.
Or they're just saying in general,
any legal voter that we deem
not willing to vote for
my side shouldn't vote because
it'll replace me, they're supposed
to vote for my side.
That's not how voting works,
that's not how democracy works.
So, either you're talking about how
they're unlawfully voting which
we've already discovered is a huge
line of BS.
Or you think them legally voting is
replacing you because this
country only belongs to you.
Who is you again?
You, that rich, white guy.
That's who you think it belongs to.
Because historically, rich,
white guys, landowners, previously,
when we were starting this off,
were the ones who were
allowed to vote because
they were the ones in power.
So now that power gets
diluted because guess who else has
land now?
Other minority men, women do.
All these folks that you didn't
want to have power before or
land and money, have it.
And you're upset about it all over
again, and it's only getting worse.
So also this whole idea
of replacement,
the very nature of it is violent.
If they're replacing,
how are they replacing you?
Where are you going?
You can only go away and die.
So that's baked into this, you
being replaced is a violent thing.
And the violence, in response,
is a natural thing,
especially in this country.
Somebody is coming to get me,
I'm going to go get them first.
That's what we base all of
our lives on.
So let's not say that it is a non
violent line of attack,
because it absolutely is.
And also, it makes no sense that
someone's trying to replace you in
that they're legal or illegal.
I'm not sure which way this is
going to go.
>> Just those points by Jayar
are brilliant.
I'm not getting diluted.
Who is the you that's getting
diluted?
Right, white people.
Okay, at least rich,
white males like Tucker Carlson
