Why does right wing propaganda like Tucker Carlson resonate so strongly with some of the left?
They don’t resonate with us, nor do we pay them attention. The few instances where we agree are merely coincidental and usually for different reasons.

The person I was replying to linked an article using Carlson as a primary source.
I know.
Carlson is hard to avoid. You don’t necessarily have to seek out his opinion to be aware of it. And I wouldn’t know how “left” OP is.
You just showed how easy it was to talk about this topic without mentioning Tucker.
It’s not so easy. Most people—even those ostensibly on the “left”—aren’t even aware of non-corporate left media like MintPress News and Consortium News.
