Here’s something you don’t see very often: white liberal celebrities being called out. Author Frederick Joseph notes that “it says a lot” that more white liberal celebrities spoke up after Will Smith slapped Chris Rock at the Oscars than spoke out against Tucker Carlson after he went on a mass shooting at a Buffalo supermarket. Hold on … we’re being told that Carlson was not the man behind the trigger — that was an 18-year-old white supremacist who thought Fox News was overrun by Jews.
But let’s go ahead and hold those white liberal celebrities’ feet to the fire; why aren’t more of them speaking out against Carlson?
There were more white liberal celebrities who spoke against Will Smith after the Oscars than there have been speaking against Tucker Carlson and the GOP after the mass shooting in Buffalo.
Which says a lot.

Yeah, it says Will Smith actually did the thing he's accused of doing. https://t.co/c7XIAsMDdw

The Buffalo shooter spoke against Tucker Carlson and the GOP.
He called Fox News "corporatist" and said he was "socialist" and "mild-moderate authoritarian left."

Probably because Will Smith did actually slap Chris Rock and Tucker Carlson did not do what some people claim. Simple really.

In his manifesto, the shooter explicitly noted those sources that radicalized him — it was sites like The Daily Stormer, not Fox News, and not the GOP.

Because one of them actually did something rather than absorb blame by association?

One thing actually happened. The other didn't. Seems an important distinction.

Analogy fail.

We’re happy to trash white liberal celebrities all day — especially if they think they can somehow pin the Buffalo mass shooting on the GOP and Carlson.
