Tucker Carlson is a Creationist Tool

Apart from science deniers, I also can't stand far right political pundits who do nothing but stoke the fire of conspiracy and deteriorate the social fabric. You know, douchebags like Tucker Carlson. Tuckdawg recently went on Joe Rogan's podcast and spewed a bunch of creationist bullshit, so I thought it would be fun to crap all over it. Doesn't that sound nice?

She never broke news, only repeated other news in an exaggerated way. She has no problem with this because she does not pretend to be a journalist/newsbreaker. Tucker didn't get this same treatment, instead having to rely on the claim that "his reputation" was such that nobody reasonable would believe him. It's nothing to do with the context of his show, they're basically saying the ruling for him is a personal one given his reputation of insane and false statements. He isn't exaggerating a fact for comedic effect. He just straight up lies sometimes.

[@shexec32]

​@@bretttrommler756 Yeah sure, I can take an objective look at the Genesis account of creation. Hmm, I see there's a contradiction in Genesis 1:2 about the Earth existing before the Sun, in contradiction with the astronomical theory of star and protoplanetary formation. I'm reading a passage in 1:6 about the sky forming from the ocean, contradicting atmospheric geophysics and Genesis 1:2 where the water has a surface? I'm reading a thermodynamic paradox in Genesis 1:11 about liquid water existing without a source of heat, at below freezing point? Now I'm reading a contradiction in Genesis 1:11 to the basic biology about plants functioning without sunlight? Now I'm reading in Genesis 1:12 about fruit trees functioning without animals present, which contradicting angiosperm botany? How many contradictions are in this creation story? Oh and what's this on the next page, in Genesis 2? A different account of the same event but with a contradictory order to the events of Genesis 1? Two accounts of creation in the bible that contradict each other!? An objective mind should have no trouble dismissing a creation story filled with contradictory and self-contradictory statements as false. But just in case you have to be spoonfed your epistemology through bible verses (it's Matthew 23:28 btw), rather than understand the Aristotleian laws of thought, here's what the laws of thought say about contradictions. The law of noncontradiction states that contradictory accounts cannot be true at the same time in the same sense. At least one of the accounts must be wrong. Now let's look at evolution with an objective mind, a concept that requires just one more ingredient after you have accepted adaptation occurs like Comrade Tucker did in this video. One ingredient only - and that is time. Once you have adaptation and once you have time, evolution via genetic variability, is inevitable. Didn't even need to bring in natural selection (not that it doesn't occur), and we now have an explanation for the common descent of species, the appearance of transitional species, mass extinction events, the appearance of phenotypes, and an accepted theory that doesn't have to contradict the laws of physics or chemistry or biology or geology or history. So what evidence do we find that the Earth is more than 6000 years old? An objective mind sees that evidence in the stars & the years that light takes to reach us. That mind sees it in the solar system and the age of meteorites and the planetary craters, sees it in archaeology in the caves of Lascaux. That objective mind sees evidence in nuclear physics with the half life of uranium-238 or carbon-14 or potassium-40, in hydrocarbon exploration, in geological rock formation, in the African savanna, in the comparative anatomy of animals, in the directly observed domestication of the banana and tomato. So does my openly objective mind, accept the epistemologically sound evolutionary theory of life more than the contradiction-filled Genesis story and contradicts not just science, but also archeology, geography, history, logic and itself? My mind chooses the more parsimonious explanation. It was 17 contradictions I counted in the Genesis account of creation.

There is irony in that these are on the Protestant side when in the early Protestant movement they would reject the creationist argument because they believed in Predestination . Especially the Calvinist movement. This was from Theology that realized over time that if you worshiped an all knowing, present everywhere and all powerful God that God could insure everything thing they wanted to happen at the moment of creation that God would not need to do anything after that point other than direct talk to leaders and have a Son. Predestination in part what got the Catholic Church to switch sides to the Evolution side after the evidence for Evolution became overwhelming. That evolution is how god expressed god's will in the area. Note under Predestination God can hear prayer and answer it at the moment of creation no need to modify things currently. Here is God is not limited by time a logical theologic thought. Predestination fell out of favor over time as it meant your dammed to hell or to heaven when the Universe was created you don't actually have a choice it a very anti free will doctrine.

And what makes it even better, is that segregation is far from the worst thing America has ever done (it still wasn’t a good thing though).

[@tma2001]

I was shocked to learn that Lincoln advocated for segregation and wanted to encourage blacks to return to Africa: "On August 14, 1862, Lincoln met at the White House delegation of Black leaders to make his case for the voluntary emigration of African Americans to countries outside the U.S. “Your race suffer from living among us, while ours suffer from your presence… It is better for us both, therefore, to be separated,” Lincoln told the delegation." Intermarriage between the races and political equality were too much even for Lincoln - today we would label such views as white supremacist.

I’ve really had this on my mind every time people say it’s “just a theory”, is what they think a theory is closer to what a hypothesis actually is?

Yes, they think a scientific theory is what scientists actually call a hypothesis. A scientific theory is an explanation that corroborates lots of data by the scientific method. A well-established theory is when there is so much evidence that enough of the entire field agrees that it is the best explanation of what is really going on. A hypothesis is a potential explanation that doesn't yet have enough corroboration to call it a theory. Evolution by natural selection is a very well-established theory. People who make this mistake give themselves away as scientifically illiterate.

[@stavrosrahnos6071]

Yeah, pretty much. A lot of people have the "I have a theory as to how this works" and the scientific "theory of evolution" mixed up all the time. A theory is just an idea to some people or it's derived from the classic "in theory" expression so then when they hear the word theory, they think "oh evolution exists in theory".

I actually find it really annoying when the interviewer constantly interrupts the guest and derails the conversation. It's actually pretty entertaining listening to people say the most insane shit, to be honest. Lex Fridman also has this interview style. Even when his guests are saying some blatantly ridiculous things he just calmly keeps asking them about it while trying to maintain a straight face.

He did have an episode where he argued with a flat earther for an entire 40 minutes. If he can carry a conversation that long without losing his mind or the guest walking off, that’s honestly impressive.
