I "accidentally" saw a short clip from his rant while browsing yesterday. It was so much worse to actually see it. How anyone can sit and watch/listen to Tucker Carlson is beyond me, I'd have to have some really big clown shoes to do that.
"In order to maintain a tolerant society, the society must be intolerant of intolerance." Paradox of tolerance
First they come for our cartoon rabbits then they come for our M&M's. Of all the problems today this is where we need to focus our rage.
Cadbury's bunny would be gassed today I tell ya.
but no seriously, is this a slow news day? lol

Lol you guys definitely missed the joke. He was mocking Mars Company for why they made the changes they did to be more "inclusive" in the first place. How does changing high heels to flats make the m&m more inclusive? What does that solve exactly?
"Mars announced on Thursday that the company would make changes to M&Ms as part of its "global commitment to creating a world where everyone feels they belong, and society is inclusive." Like.. its a fucking joke. Mars deserves to be mocked for this. At least changing your company logo to rainbow colors during pride month (except for China or Middle East or African countries) requires a bit more effort.
His humor uses exxageration and sarcasm together in a rant format. Tucker is a talk show host who tries to keep his audience entertained. You guys take this stuff too seriously.
They can! And they can add pointless lips and shoes and high heels and glasses. And it'll still be worth absolutely no meaningful reaction. The two are not mutually exclusive statements.
And yet here we are, still mocking Tucker Carlson for wanting to fuck a chocolate mascot. It's hilarious, because conservatives only really seem to be funny when they're not trying to be funny nowadays.
Hey, I already said it's fine to mock Mars for this. Colbert did it.
It's also fine to mock Tuck for coming off like a guy that is pissed off because the Brown M&M doesn't get his dick hard anymore.

Or, when they are trying to be funny... but the joke completely backfires on them.

The only joke is that these are the issues that FOX NEWS hosts choose to report on. This is the right wing outrage machine operating the same way it has for decades. M&Ms, Potato Head, you go back far enough and it's violent video games, D&D, and rock music.
Is this pandering by Mars pathetic? Yeah. But Conservative pundits actually ranting about this shit is infinitely more pathetic.
This is just right wing politics in 2022. Ignore the pandemic, ignore global warming, ignore poverty, ignore horrible working conditions, ignore crumbling infrastructure. Focus on how "woke socialists" are destroying America by cancelling cultural icons like Aunt Jemima and the green M&M.
Tucker is an entertainer on late night television. His show isn't supposed to be hard hitting journalism. It is meant to be for entertainment with some politics thrown in there. Just like how Colbert covered this story too since he's a comedian. Not every piece of news has to be super serious and the most important thing ever. Just whatever gets better ratings. You guys just seriously don't understand the difference between a news anchor and a talk show host on late night TV.
