This is ultimately why concerns about "cancel culture" sound like B.S. to me. People who behave atrociously but legally should face social consequences for their action. And the people who complain most loudly about "cancel culture" and "political correctness" are just a$$holes who don't want to face consequences for their antisocial behavior.


"Cancel Culture" is a propaganda term which removes the blame from the people who have behaved badly and places it on those who reject them.


Incorrect.

He was that desperate for a date.


He's only 28 or 29, a Dartmouth alum, with writing credits in a NYT no. 1 best selling book and the no. 1 cable news show of all time. This was a dumb decision but he's still quite young. However, I'd recommend he just embrace the bald head or pony up for Elon Musk hair transplant surgery -- and lose those dorky specs for something more hipster-ish and youthful.

The whole point of inceldom is that you make no effort to be stylish and respectful but expect women to want you anyway.


It sounds like you're projecting. Not everyone bases their status or self-esteem in or on their ability to have promiscuous sex, and it's retrograde for you to assume that everyone is interested in casual sexual encounters and if they don't, they warrant ridicule.


True, but incels can’t get ANY sex. Not with a monogamous partner in a committed and loving relationship, not a causal encounter, not a pity f***, not any kind of sex with anyone. That makes them feel angry and pathetic, and so they pretend it’s their decision and a choice they have intentionally made. Frankly, it’s probably better for the species that they aren’t contributing to the gene pool.


Actually, “incel” stands for “involuntary celibacy.” They blame other men and women for their celibacy.

A long running series in the Washington Post where the newspaper sets up two single Washingtonians for a blind date. The individuals then discuss the date with reporter and rate the date.

The DateLab with Blake Neff is just sooooo weird.

I've been reading Date Lab for years, and this is really the weirdest one ever.


Sounds like he was trying to troll and be edgy. Safe bet he subtly bragged to his forum friends this was him.


CNN has all the deets. Frankly, it's a bit overblown. He posted on 1000 comment threads that had bad words and forbidden thoughts on them. I guess he should have tried rioting and pulling down statues instead.


Vanity. He couldn't stop bragging. What I'm assuming did him in was boasting to Dartmouth Alumni Magazine last month that he writes every word Carlson speaks. Safe bet at least Jake Tapper caught that...

It's good to know that when faced with a challenging cable competitor, CNN will pull out all the stops to do investigative journalism to land a hit. "I bet some of his staff post anonymously online - let's scour the internet to try to find something, anything, to bring him down."

Too bad they don't investigate important matters anymore -- like who is really behind BLM, and why is all this happening now?

What was this kid's salary, maybe $100k? If Carlson really cares about him (spoiler: he doesn't), he'd pay him himself to ghostwrite his scripts. Tucker must make 20 million bucks a year.

PP. Yep, agree with this.

If it’s no big deal, why did Carlson can him?

Tucker Carlson literally made it a mission to publish a bunch of bogus articles “exposing” journalists who made comments in a chat group a decade ago. Turnabout is fair play.

NP. No, that’s pretty spot on. It’s an attempt to minimize the offense and suggest those who were offended were overreacting.

People are big mad at this Tucker guy's ratings.

Btw is Tucker a nickname or his real name?

Did you read the article? They got a tip and followed up on it, and the guy made it obvious who he was.

DP here. In some cases I think they are overreacting. In this case though, I think Carlson was right to fire him.

And I’m sure Carlson will say that his racist attitude never affected his writing. Yeah!

That is the human boat shoe’s real name.
