      Can you explain why referring to Iraqis as "monkeys" is a valuable idea that deserves serious consideration? Also, what is the "idea" value of a middle-age man talking about his lust for teenagers?

          Any man who jokes and fantasizes about his daughter’s boarding school classmates is a sick person.

          And why exactly is it worth “debating” whether women are ‘primitive’, as Tucker said? Exactly how are racism, misogyny or child rape “ideas” worthy of debate?

          Pro Tip: we ARE able to read Tucker’s mind & differentiate hyperbole from sincerely held beliefs.
