“SIDE WITH HITLER?” The Tucker Carlson Show Officially Goes Off the Rails
Promoting World War II contrarianism and indulging outlandish historical revisionism under the guise of "just asking questions" represents a disastrous failure of judgment and basic historical literacy. Rich breaks down how Tucker Carlson’s willingness to entertain arguments that the U.S. should have allied with Adolf Hitler against Joseph Stalin ignores geopolitical reality, moral clarity, and the foundational facts of the Nazi regime. Unpacking how edgy contrarianism decays into toxic apologia, Rich exposes why attempting to reframe Axis powers as misunderstood partners isn't brave truth-telling—it's perversion masquerading as commentary.
