In the opening monologue of episode 45 of Tucker on X, Carlson delved into the theme of acknowledging and taking responsibility for one’s wrongdoings.
Tucker observed that the magnitude of a tragedy seems to inversely affect the willingness of those responsible to offer apologies. He exemplified this by saying that if he were to cause a minor accident, like denting someone’s car bumper, he would readily apologize.
“But if I were to say, invade Iraq under false pretenses and kill a million people and spend a trillion of your dollars doing it, I wouldn’t say a word. I would never admit that was a bad idea. I couldn’t. It implicates me too profoundly,” Carlson commented.
The same principle applies to COVID.
Tucker added to the “It implicates me too profoundly” remark by saying, “The same goes for if I say, locked your kids inside for a year and destroyed their brains and prevented them from getting an education.”
He lastly mentioned the infamous COVID vaccine. “Or if I say forced you to take a vax that didn’t work that very well might have hurt you, I could never admit that I did that. I just couldn’t. Because if I admitted it, I’d have to suffer the consequences.”
