Summary
Former Fox News host Tucker Carlson claimed he was “physically mauled” by a demon in his sleep, leaving claw marks on his body, which he says are still visible. Carlson described waking with intense pain, bleeding claw marks, and an overwhelming urge to read the Bible. He recounted the experience as confusing yet transformative, adding that while he doesn’t expect others to believe him, the incident profoundly impacted him.
Cheating on his wife for sure
100%
If this is true, what did he do to deserve this. This doesn’t just happen to a good god fearing person. So I guess the real question is, what did he do to deserve this.
This doesn’t just happen to a good god fearing person. Why would this happen if he DIDN’T deserve this. Clearly he lost favor with the good lord and has opened himself up to the devil to be possessed by a demon.
As someone who was raised in a very evangelical household: the (non)-answer is that it happened to him in order to tempt him or test him or some shit. If it happens to a non-god-fearing individual, it’s deserved, otherwise it’s God’s plan all along. Because moving the goal posts is just way too easy.
The real answer is Tucker Carlson is either actually insane or hardcore grifting, but I’m probably preaching to the choir here going down that rabbit hole lol.
I figured my comment would be countered with “justification” as to why. Not you but your explanation and yea preaching my friend.
No you see he is like Job in the Bible!!! He’s so righteous God is testing him with demons!!!
-his fans probably
Job has to be one of the more disgusting stories in the Bible… It was the one that I read/was taught about in church as a teen that first made me go “wait a second…”.
From the first time I heard that story, it never sat well with me, and not a single adult was ever able to give me a satisfactory explanation for why it was OK for god to straight up destroy this poor man’s life (a man who was already super dedicated to this god), including literally killing his innocent family, over some petty bet with the actual devil.
That really opened my eyes to what the OT god really was in that book, and I did not like what I saw.
True. I know there will always be a justification and it would be a hard fight to change the minds of those who are being grifted.
This all obviously ridiculous but… I grew up with a family that 100% believed in spiritual warfare. My parents were more willing to believe my brother was possessed than to believe he needed psychiatric help. My Dad had the church elders pray over me when I had whooping cough, asking God to cast out the demon that had so obviously latched onto my 10 year old lungs. I regularly saw people at my church who would claim to have seen fantastical things.
Tucker is simply appealing to his base. The mass groups of people who truly believe they are warriors for Christ engaged in a life and death struggle for the soul of the whole world. There are thousands of them and they believe you and I as unbelievers are at best, unwittingly helping the enemy and at worst, willful vessels of the literal devil.
I wouldn’t be shocked if Tucker Carlson 100% believed what he’s saying. The groupthink in those circles is difficult to break out of.
Too bad it didn’t kill him
He’s such a cunt. Fuck that guy.
Weirdo. Through and through.
At the time, Carlson says, he was asleep in bed with his wife – and four dogs.
I have an alternate theory about those claw marks…
Even Fido has had enough of his shit
Good dog.
Hopefully Fucker gets rabies
I watched that video, and had he just stuck to being suddenly awake and having claw marks I would have thought there was something odd. But he led with having four dogs in the bed, so when he said he had claw marks…dear lord, he’s either trying too hard to play to some niche audience, or he’s really that stupid. At least make the story sound plausible…we know you can lie, why didn’t you just leave off some details here to sell it better.
Ever since he got kicked off Fox, he’s been making the pivot to the hard right audience, which includes the narrative that they’re in a spiritual war against the literal devil.
It’s the same conspiracy-laden bullshit that Alex Jones pushes.
It’s Jon Stewart’s fault. Tucker never recovered from that jab about the bow tie.
And he never wore a bow tie after that. Lol.
If anything, Tucker needs another sit-down with JonHe’s been holding a towel on his rear-end ever since.
And we got Trump cause Obama roasted him so hard he was afraid no one would think he was white anymore.
Maybe ridiculing fascists isn’t the best way to treat them.
Right, Trump’s fragile ego voted him into office 🤨
There are a lot of contributing factors. Obama making fun of him might have seen him run for office, but without all the enablers along the way carrying him on he would have collapsed a few steps in, fucked off to go eat a gourmet Happy Meal and told himself (and anyone in earshot) how brave and strong he is for running in the first place.
Ridicule may have lit the fuse, but the powder was there long before.
You’re correct, actually.
i don’t understand how lemmy works. this meme obviously suggest killing fascists, which is in fact, the correct answer. but if i say “we should kill fascists” they’ll delete my comment. WTF? say it in a meme, because that’s somehow, different?
Yeah, I don’t know when “Trump ran for president because he was so thoroughly emasculated by Obama” and “You can’t shame the shameless out of fascism” became such hot takes.
You can shame them, just not for anything they should feel shamed about. Jabs about very facile facets of their masculinity? shamed. Dragged through the ringer because they are rapists? No shame.
Ridiculing Fascists is the best way to treat them. They’re fragile little snowflakes and can not handle being the butt of the joke. Why do you think aside from journalists and politicians, comedians also get censored or imprisoned first when fascists take over?
So the problem with Trump is that he’s not being ridiculed enough? The orange-skinned, diaper wearing, wispy-pube-haired, tiny hands, mushroom dick, broke-ass billionaire wanna-be, so cheap he won’t even bother to have his suits tailored, neck-gina, “dumbest goddamn student I ever had”, can’t drink water, nuke hurricanes, salutes North Korean generals, paper towel throwing, bleach-drinking, UV light up the asshole, bigliest, yugliest, covfefe bunker bitch will go away if we just make fun of him?
If you think you can stop the fascist by calling him Mango Mussolini or Agolf Shitler more, fucking go for it. Comedians get imprisoned by fascists because they hurt their feelings- but that doesn’t stop fascism, or else they wouldn’t have ended up in prison.
And he’s been Orange ever since.
The dude used to wear a bow tie, unironically, and in public no less, so…
Bowties are cool.
The bowtie wasn’t the problem.
It’s the person that makes it uncool.
I’d argue that the fact that he stopped wearing the bowties when he was mocked for it says more about him than the bowties do.
It absolutely does. Jon knew it would have to be something low to get under his skin and he was right.
I’ve been rocking a bowtie for a while, and my wife loves it. Maybe it’s that his were clipons.
I bet it’s deliberate. Like a power play knowing his story is clearly bullshit but the morons he’s appealing to are believing it making him feel even more superior.
Occam’s Razor? Naw, it’s gotta be Occam’s Jewish Space Laser.
Yeah, if I were married to Tucker Carlson I’d be pretty messed up too.
Heyo
We know his wife didn’t leave them in the throes of passion, that’s for sure
But a mistress that he’s trying to cover up? That’s plausible.
If by “mistress” you mean “4 dogs” then I agree.
He brought the Bible into it so I’m betting it was a misteress.
A dominatrix is also plausible
No man! It was a succubus!
Dude, even small dogs can hog some serious space. 4 dogs? I’m surprised there’s any room left for the fucker and his wife. He probably got scratches falling out of bed.
Yeah, i imagine his wife is pretty vicious.
Holy shit I did not think the alt right could get any fucking dumber.
“I went to bed and woke up next to this unconscious woman… I was in my bed with the wife and dogs at the time, so she must’ve been a demon.”
Is it Tucker Carlson has hell hounds for pets?
I do too. Paranoid delusions
His boyfriend choked him out too hard? I’m bad at inferences.
Former Fox News host Tucker Carlson claimed he was “physically mauled” by a demon in his sleep, leaving claw marks on his body, which he says are still visible.
next time he shouldn’t use teeth and make sure you cup the balls, Mr. Carlson.
I can’t believe I almost ate a non-existent onion.
How to explain away the signs of rough gay sex to your wife.
This.
How to explain away the signs of rough
gaybeastial sex to your wife.FTFY
Tucker Carlson and JD Vance had rough normal gay guy sex and he’s getting ahead of any story and saying it was demon assault.
I can also take part in conspiracies
Tucker made the mistake of dressing up as a couch for Halloween.
He was asking for it!
He was asking for it.
It’s why JD Vance’s pimp handlers slather him in makeup and eyeliner to keep Tucker interested in MAGA. All funded from the top down by Elon Musk who eats babies in a failed and desperate attempt to stay young.
That’s why he makes that many, he has to start numbering them in Xenu…
The demon turned him into a couch
People are saying it’s the dogs, but given that it’s Tucker Carlson I think it’s far more likely that he’s just flat out lying.
I dunno. If anyone has the servants of darkness hanging out at their home, it’s this guy.
If forced to wager, split money between affair and prostitute. Longshot: beaten up by old school influencers.
Lol
“I got attacked while I was asleep with my wife and four dogs and mauled, physically mauled.” … “I have no idea what happened.”
lol
This is the level of critical thinking that conservative pundits are exercising.
He claims the dogs were sleeping but, who knows. 🤷♂️
4… FOUR Dogs? Imagine the smell…
I’m actually a bit jealous of his sleeping situation. I don’t mind dogs being “dirty” and I’d prefer 4 dogs (and maybe a wife) to sleeping alone.
Plus he’s rich so nbd to have a huge bed and have your dogs groomed every other day.
Tucker Carlson fights his demons. I would give this show a chance even though I really hate the guy. If he does a whole Spike from Buffy arc… It could work. [Sarcasm]
