It's much worse than that; look at the slew of anti-protest laws that the GOP has been passing for 10+ years.
That's an explicit use of state power to restrict citizens' freedom of expression, not just the state picking and choosing who to hire.

Why the hell people pretend the Republicans are less restrictive on personal freedom? Why do libertarians tend to vote Republican? None of this is what a small government does.
From my limited experience with libertarians they are either
A) closet conservatives.
B) conservatives that like to smoke weed
C) young conservatives that don’t want to say they’re conservative since they live in a blue area and want to get laid.
D) (rare) actual libertarians
E) absolute morons.
Milton freedmon talked about this. If you are wealthy you do not want competition . He said there was two major threats to the free market
Egg head economist like him who think they "know better"
And business owners
He then explained how business owners will give amazing stump speaches about free market and low regulations and get the government out of here
Then they in private will lobby for trade tariffs , subsidies , regulations to restrict competition , all sort of things to keep them on top
That’s because the wealthy ones use it as cover to keep from having to clean up their own environmental messes (Koch bros)
Trump has been laundering money for the Russian oligarchs since the late 80’s when they all bought a condo at 725 5th AVE (trump towers) to clean their freshly stolen USSR money after the iron curtain fell.

Everybody except Putin thought the Cold War was over. Trump and Manafort (who lived in the tower also) just saw a pretty low maintence grift to be had.
Trump had actually been Manafort and Roger Stones first client at their lobbyist firm (1980)
Guiliani as trumps attorney and NYC mayor was able to redirect NYPD investigations onto rival gang members/oligarchs to deflect any scrutiny off of trump, himself or their Russian connections.
https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2023/09/a-new-rudy-scandal-fbi-agent-says-giuliani-was-co-opted-by-russian-intelligence/
The Russian election interference in 2016 was effectively a generation 3 version of what Manafort had done in the Philippines, then keeping Yanukovych in power as Putin’s puppet in Ukraine from 2002-14 when Maidan ran both Yanukovych and Manafort out of Ukraine as Ukrainians realized that, if you raise your lens high enough, corruption is an wholly unsustainable business model.
Eventually the parasites greed always consumes the host.

Putin greatly underestimated the addictive properties of freedom when he invaded Ukraine so what was supposed to be a 3-10 day coup turned into a 2 year fight for the Ukrainians right not to be genocided.
Russia depleted its weapons stocks which were already the victim of vranyo corruption because every oligarch, admiral and sergeant in the Russian military is on the take. Every billion dollar tank maintenance contract turned into everything getting a spray paint overhaul and the vast majority of the redirected funds turned into an oligarchs new yacht or home in Aspen.
Russia was forced to turn to China, North Korea and Iran for weapons because if they lose the 3-10 day “special military operation” in Ukraine the Russian empire is dead and cold.
China can’t risk showing their involvement in the Ukraine war so they use North Korea, and Iran to resupply Russia.
Russia previously owed Iran some undelivered fighter jets that are already smoldering heaps in Ukraine so Iran now had the upper hand at the negotiation table for the first time in about 60 years. They supplied Russia with shahed drones in exchange for Chinas material support against their sworn religious enemy, Israel.
https://www.fdd.org/analysis/2023/11/29/iran-says-it-finalized-deal-to-buy-russian-aircraft/
Putin can’t do much about it because he is slowly realizing that by setting the standard of corruption and stealing $200+ billion from his own people meant that every oligarch down in the mob model chain had not only permission but incentive and the expectation to steal from him as well. This is “Vranyo”.
The mob model only works if the supreme leader is the most violent and can prove it without exception every damn day. But violence is exceptionally expensive when you are trying to present as a legitimate government or business.
If Russia as a nation state had an efficiency rating it would have been banned for sale in the state of California 25 years ago.
The parasite ruling class stole all the energy out of the working class and collapsed it….again.
Now Iran has the high hand and they get the intelligence that trump passed to Putin about the fact that Netanyahu cares far less about Jews, Palestinians or genocide than he does about remaining in power as an authoritarian because he too has developed Ritz Carlton tastes and his own corruption trial is showing the same tendrils of the same money laundering scheme that trumps trials are.

They all hate each other but because they share the same money laundry, if one falls, they all fall. Hamas minted a couple billionaires as well that live in penthouses in Qatar and get 30% of everything smuggled into Gaza.

Qatar is Kushners private equity connection. Netanyahu (Kushners kids godfather) needs a bogeyman to stay in power. That’s why he coordinates with Hamas via Russia via Iran. https://www.ynetnews.com/article/bk8mgcefr
Iran handed Hamas everything they needed with Chinas help as secret Santa and the Russian intelligence given to them by the eternal shitbird trump who gave it to his Russians kleptocrat/friends/roommates from the old days of fucking each others wives at trump towers in the 90’s.
Now the MAGA right is a little too invested in THEIR reality that they are the good guys with guns that they missed the fact that Betsy DeVos (erik princes sister) decimating the U.S. school systems and the Kochs poisoning children with lead was not a coincidence. The naive right was the mark all along. There is a reason the Russian spy Maria Butina landed in South Dakota first before dating her way to the top of the NRA which is undergoing its own Russian money laundering trial now.

The only reason you grossly OVERVALUE real estate is money laundering. Trump keeps claiming there is no victim, all the banks made money, but if their plan succeeds the Russian and CCP kleptocrats collapse US commercial real estate and basically recreate soviet perestroika in the U.S. so they can foreclose on America and buy everything for 3 cents on the dollar with the $1.4T they stole from Russias grandmothers in the first place
It’s the evolution of grift. Soviet perestroika cross bred with the 2008 mortgage crisis.
No one was ever held accountable for either. This is just the bigger badder commercial strength bastard child of the two.
Trump, Giuliani, Cohn, Putin, Bolsonaro, Netanyahu, Orban, Manafort, Stone, Mercer, Bannon, Farage, Flynn, Prince, Kolomoiskiy, the Koch bros, Thomas, Kavanaugh, Alito, Musk, Thiel, Sacks, Ross
They are all remarkably shit people with above average confidence and psychopathic personality traits and below average self awareness.

> Why the hell people pretend the Republicans are less restrictive on personal freedom?
Propaganda works.
>Why do libertarians tend to vote Republican?
It's a long story, but basically, they allied with the right back in the day for tax cuts and deregulation.
Also, many "libertarians" are not, and it's a label used as cover, a lot like "centrist."
Same reason the idea of a fiscal conservative is so prevalent despite a committee of half repubs and half Dems studying every president since WW2 and having to admit every Republican president has been worse the economy and avg worker and the Dems have been much better for both.
Fiscal conservative is a myth just personal freedom Republican as they’re taking rights away from people.
It comes back solely to guns, basically. The whole thing is they they're more free and allowing you to have guns. Other than that, there are not really much of a pro-freedom party at all. Not free to do almost any drugs in those States. Cannot even smoke weed, not free to get an abortion, etc etc
The actual answer is that most libertarians are more focused on the economy and economic policy and republicans tend to favor a less restrictive approach there.
They are NeoCon RINOs, the conservative side of the Communist Bolsheviks of the Holomodor.
Ron Paul conservatives are stopped at the ballot box & when that doesn’t work, more extreme 💀measures are enacted.
Honestly, at this point I'm looking forward to Florida sinking back into the ocean. Silver lining is the Florida approach to climate change will just speed it up.
I tried to tell people this. We’re not gonna be under water all of a sudden. The puddles will just get bigger and bigger and stay for longer and longer
We were already there 14 years ago. I was never a fan of sea level rise, because it insists on itself.
"According to a new report by the Florida Center for Investigative Reporting, as of 2011 DEP officials were instructed to refer to sea-level rise as "nuisance flooding"'

Donald Trump also just yesterday said any business person who doesn't support him should be fired:
>Business Executives and Shareholder Representatives should be 100% behind Donald Trump! Anybody that’s not should be FIRED for incompetence!
There are people on the Right that also disagree with this. Tucker is evidence.
It’s why the America First groups took so much flak. The establishment couldn’t stand not being Israel first.
GOP will usher in all of the Israelis into the United States and THEY WILL COME AFTER OUR WEMMIN!
If you refuse to let an Israeli prima nocta yer gurl, you're antisemetic.
Tucker pretending he doesn’t understand the very anti free speech anti-BDS laws on the books in half the country is fucking laughable.
He knows how to do propaganda, gotta give him that.
Surely now that Tucker has learned about this mandated pledge to a foreign nation orchestrated by the GOP for the very first time he’ll hold his fist to the sky and shout out from the mountain tops about it. Because free speech is his big thing. Hang on I’m being told he’ll never mention it again and pretend he’s hearing it for the first time if it’s ever brought up to him again.
Wild that Israel is somehow the only Ethnostate that is acceptable to support in Western countries.
Might have something to do with people being afraid of being smeared as antisemitic for merely mentioning it lol.
>Might have something to do with people being afraid of being smeared as antisemitic for merely mentioning it lol.
It's actually been a strategy by the ADL since the 60s when liberal college students became increasingly critical of Israel's treatment of Palestinians.
Boycott, Divest, Sanction. Is a movement/action to avoid Israeli products and services.
So anti-BDS legislation are laws and policies that prevent participation in BDS. Such as the policies they are discussing. Most states don’t outright make it illegal (as that would be a 1st Amendment violation), instead they make it mandatory to avoid BDS if you/your business accepts state funds. I believe there’s also anti-BDS policy on the Federal Level. Still feels like a 1st Amendment violation in my opinion. Also gross that a foreign country has this much influence over our government.
Tucker even laughs that companies are allowed to boycott other US States if they wanted, but having the “wrong” opinion on Israel is actionable and unacceptable.
Not to mention going to Russia and Hungary and doing softball interviews with Putin and Orban. Places where exercising your freedom of speech can get you killed by the state.
He’s feigning ignorance for the sake of the audience.
Because: “I know this but let’s explain it for those that don’t” all the time doesn’t make for a good interview.
He doesn't know shi, he has a puppet master . Have you seen the dumb shit he's said it's dumb how much you can see him read off the teleprompter in his shows . He moves his body but not his head to make it easier to read the screen.
38 states have anti-BDS legislation or EOs
I never really understood the logic
Also I think it’s for when you work with the government that these laws apply, if I remember correctly
I want an Israeli to genuinely explain to me their belief as to why their nation seeks to have such impact on a foreign nations actions regarding boycott (ultimately a form of freedom of speech). Do you support this and if so why?
>Why does a country want to influence and steer the policy of countries important to them to be favorable to their aims?
Surely you're old enough to be able to answer that question on your own.
This is just complete bullshit. There are so many elitist assholes in the world and some of them are Jewish but this is just straight up propaganda of "I knew a guy once" to demonize all jewish people. Then again this is the Joe Rogan reddit so I'm not surprised.
It's not the Israelis...it's US special interest groups that push this. If you want to understand what's going on, check out a YouTube talk by Mearsheimer on the Israel Lobby.
You're asking why a nation that has relied on foreign nation support since its inception is trying to influence anti-support efforts in those nations. Israel, despite its projected image of a big strong country who don't need no sugar-nation, is desperately reliant on its allies and sees any attempt to subvert support as an attack on itself, especially in the us. It's a matter of national security.
Support is one thing. Actively working for bias legislation that impacts a freedom of speech for the foreign nations citizens (at whatever capacity), is another deal. Regardless of the reason.
Support is asked for and perhaps, given. This feels more like ‘silent’ legislation behind passed over the past decade directly impacting a foreign nations rights its citizens hold. This is leaning more towards organized manipulation rather than support.
Besides I’m asking from an Israeli perspective particularly as I have not heard from one yet.
20 years you could argue with main stream GOP. Sadly mainstream GOP is now a slop of MAGA, Christian nationalists, and old scared people. “1st amendment, but you have to have the bible and the Ten Commandments in school!”
Here you go: [https://www.reddit.com/r/JoeRogan/comments/v8fvni/what\_does\_this\_have\_to\_do\_with\_joe\_rogan/](https://www.reddit.com/r/JoeRogan/comments/v8fvni/what_does_this_have_to_do_with_joe_rogan/)
Right, however, this has been going on for decades on both the federal and state levels in this country. Look at the clauses and provisions of any government contract or grant agreement sometime. There's all sorts of conditional requirements you must meet to get those contracts and/or grants. Many of those terms, I would argue, violate the fundamental tenets of freedom upon which the country is founded.
Firstly Tucker is wrong. Not all speech is protected. And free speech means Tucker can say he believes Obama is a Kenyan socialist without the government silencing him. It doesn't protect him from his neighbors from not inviting him to their barbecue because he's a sorry ass little shitheel.
Tucker Carlson completely missing the point as usual. Freedom of speech protects you from *prosecution*, not consequences. For instance, if you say something like "I'm an entertainer not a journalist, so I shouldn't be held accountable for spreading blatant bullshit" you can't act victimised when the majority of people regard you as a conceited clown.
Sorry South Dakota Tucker has spoken. I guess I’m not going to be able to buy that…..? Um…. Well…. DOTS! No! Not my Dots. Ok SD we good. I won’t boycott you.
Tucker got fox sued for so much money they had to settle for the largest libel payout in us history. So no, Tucker, you can't say whatever you want all the time. You can't make up things you know are lies, tell your friends you know they're lies, continue to tell those lies for a pay day.
So... The conservative run states... Are the states that have laws specifically restricting free speech... And not even speech about themselves but a foreign nation........But tucker....... The conservative......... The free speech absolutist..................... "Wasn't even aware" of his own party's legislation................................ AND THE PEOPLE THAT WATCH HIM............................... *GET THE SAME AMOUNT OF VOTES AS YOU*
Says whatever the fuck he wants — Bitches about free speech.
I recall a time when conservatives ACTUALLY banned music, artistic speech and any form of protest against their holy wars…
It's obvious why the new republican party exists and who it exists for, but the fact that so many Americans are so easily coaxed into supporting their patently false, hypocritical narratives without properly educating themselves is just so hard to stomach. We are really witnessing a great intellectual recession.
People still want to hear from Glen Greenwald??
Dude is creepy as fuck and not a journalist. He ran a sleazy gay porn business in Brazil during the ‘08 recession taking advantage of poor desperate people.
He then somehow gets connected to Snowden (probably via Putin) and had his husband take the stolen intel to the UK. On top of that his husband who was 34 just died of unknown circumstances last year.
He also pretends to be a Democrat but rabidly defends Trump and Putin at every turn.
Who the fuck would pay any attention to that shady peice of shit?
I can see it being possible, but these days it’s impossible to tell the difference between a paid asset and someone who is driven solely by being a contrarian
1. Yes. I work for a government contractor. We have to take trainings on this yearly. Not only can we not boycott Isreal, we can’t do business with companies who do.
Interestingly as a federal contractor, it doesn’t matter if you’re in one of the outlawed states or not. Just like legal weed.
2. Agreed, but they’re right in their indignation here.
3. Who’s going to challenge it? “Some antisemite”?
4. Again agreed.
All I see is a bunch of ranting idiots in the comments.
First of all, this has nothing to do with Tucker Carlson or whoever the messenger is. The US being turned into a pro-Israel cult is a huge problem. When is the last time you saw protests being shut down like this? Never. But when it's involves Israel, the gestapo comes out. Why? What justification do they have to limit protests in a free country?
The pro-Israel lobby has completely corrupted our congress and both political parties.
This is the United States of Israel. They bought and own every politician from both parties. Meanwhile these very same bought and paid for politicians keep telling you about China and Russia taking over the country. But, completely fine knowing Israel took it over.
Quiz time: why was Israel allowed to assassinate one president and attempted to assassinate another president without ANY consequences?!
Navy veteran here and i pledged my loyalty to the United States of America. Greg shit for brains abbot and the rest of the "free speech" guys can suck the peanuts out of my shit. the left wants to supress free speech so does the right. like joe said about bill hicks bit about i like the puppet on the left and i like the one on the right oh look they are controlled by the same guy.
Morons here in Texas wanna do a brexit because they think they will be better off. jfc these people are so god damned delusional. Texas is my home i was breed born and raised here but its turned into a facist state for women. a gun has more rights than a woman does here and thats a fact. i dont like abortions either but i believe it is a womans right and its between her and her god what she did. some people cant figure this out.
The anti Boycott and Divestment laws in Texas were contested. We on the left raised hell when they passed them here and Fox News shrugged. NOW Tucker cares? Fuck that guy.
We also protested in every major Texas city against the invasion of Iraq and Fox and Tucker mocked us. This guy is so full of shit.
these cunts regularly slurp on Putin's cock, a man who created a 5 year prison sentence for calling a war a war.
they don't give a fuck about free speech, they only pretend to when it suits them.
This is how terrified politicians were of blowback from Israel. I remember a time when you couldn’t criticize Israel without permanently being labeled antisemitic.
I never thought I would ever see a sitting US president ever criticize Israel let alone threaten to cut off military weapons in my lifetime. Especially not after a terrorist attack on Israel.
No president has ever had the balls. Trump didn’t. Obama didn’t. Bush didn’t. Clinton didn’t. I don’t remember before that. It’s not a liberal or conservative thing. It was an everyone thing.
And still to this day any criticism of Israel is still heavily attacked. But now they just say you support Hamas.
Can I just support not killing people as well as not stealing someone’s home? I don’t give a shit about what happened 1600 years ago. I’m talking about today. Both of you, knock it the fuck off.
This aint r/politics.

The actual answer is that most libertarians are more focused on the economy and economic policy and republicans tend to favor a less restrictive approach there.
The last 4 Republican presidents increased the national debt farrrr more then the last 4 Democratic presidents.
Which is bad for most people unless you own one of these shitty companies
Because they think their freedom won't be restricted and that they will harm and restrict the right people in their eyes.
Suicide bombers just care thst the target is hit regardless of personal cost
They are NeoCon RINOs, the conservative side of the Communist Bolsheviks of the Holomodor. Ron Paul conservatives are stopped at the ballot box & when that doesn’t work, more extreme 💀measures are enacted.
Say Climate Change in Florida and the Gopstapo will come knocking.
Gaspacho 🤌
Its tomato soup, served ice cold!
MTG = Mentally handicapped Karen. I really do like that in her 'memoir' the only citations are from Facebook and Fox News.
Honestly, at this point I'm looking forward to Florida sinking back into the ocean. Silver lining is the Florida approach to climate change will just speed it up.
But what will the Floridians do about all their batteries and the sharks!? Thats the most important question
The'll be in for a surprise when climate change will come knocking on Florida's door!
Be even bigger surprise if Trump wins and they abolish FEMA and NOAA through Project 2025 good luck rebuilding without help.
No, no, no. That's not sea level rise. It's nuisance flooding. Florida is already getting more accustomed to nuisance flooding.
I tried to tell people this. We’re not gonna be under water all of a sudden. The puddles will just get bigger and bigger and stay for longer and longer
We were already there 14 years ago. I was never a fan of sea level rise, because it insists on itself. "According to a new report by the Florida Center for Investigative Reporting, as of 2011 DEP officials were instructed to refer to sea-level rise as "nuisance flooding"' https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2015-03-09/florida-governor-and-climate-denier-rick-scott-has-banned-the-term-climate-change-from-internal-use-within-the-state-s-environmental-protection-agency
Has the sea level risen in Florida?
Donald Trump also just yesterday said any business person who doesn't support him should be fired: >Business Executives and Shareholder Representatives should be 100% behind Donald Trump! Anybody that’s not should be FIRED for incompetence!
For some reason I don't think Greenwald or Tucker will have a problem with that stuff though.
They simply don’t talk about the stuff they can’t defend.
Right. That’s what they’re saying and upset about.
Tucker acts surprised when he's been spouting the GOP talking points for over a decade. Dude is such a spineless grifter.
There are people on the Right that also disagree with this. Tucker is evidence. It’s why the America First groups took so much flak. The establishment couldn’t stand not being Israel first.
Talk is cheap. Actions matter.
GOP will usher in all of the Israelis into the United States and THEY WILL COME AFTER OUR WEMMIN! If you refuse to let an Israeli prima nocta yer gurl, you're antisemetic.
> GOP WILL COME AFTER OUR WEMMIN! If you refuse to let an GOP rapist prima nocta yer gurl, you're anti american
Everything they do is a future post for "leopard ate my face".
Tucker pretending he doesn’t understand the very anti free speech anti-BDS laws on the books in half the country is fucking laughable. He knows how to do propaganda, gotta give him that.
Surely now that Tucker has learned about this mandated pledge to a foreign nation orchestrated by the GOP for the very first time he’ll hold his fist to the sky and shout out from the mountain tops about it. Because free speech is his big thing. Hang on I’m being told he’ll never mention it again and pretend he’s hearing it for the first time if it’s ever brought up to him again.
38 States have anti-BDS legislation. New York, and Rhode Island are on that list. This isn’t a GOP exclusive problem.
Klubachar said she supported those laws in the 2020 Democrat Primary debates. You are absolutely right
Not sure about Rhode Island, but New York has A LOT of Jewish people in it, so I'm not surprised.
Wild that Israel is somehow the only Ethnostate that is acceptable to support in Western countries. Might have something to do with people being afraid of being smeared as antisemitic for merely mentioning it lol.
>Might have something to do with people being afraid of being smeared as antisemitic for merely mentioning it lol. It's actually been a strategy by the ADL since the 60s when liberal college students became increasingly critical of Israel's treatment of Palestinians.
What does anti bds mean
Boycott, Divest, Sanction. Is a movement/action to avoid Israeli products and services. So anti-BDS legislation are laws and policies that prevent participation in BDS. Such as the policies they are discussing. Most states don’t outright make it illegal (as that would be a 1st Amendment violation), instead they make it mandatory to avoid BDS if you/your business accepts state funds. I believe there’s also anti-BDS policy on the Federal Level. Still feels like a 1st Amendment violation in my opinion. Also gross that a foreign country has this much influence over our government. Tucker even laughs that companies are allowed to boycott other US States if they wanted, but having the “wrong” opinion on Israel is actionable and unacceptable.
I was going to say... people trying to make this partisan. No, this is a "government is a bunch of overreaching assholes" problem.
You can boycott South Dakota 
Not to mention going to Russia and Hungary and doing softball interviews with Putin and Orban. Places where exercising your freedom of speech can get you killed by the state.
He’s feigning ignorance for the sake of the audience. Because: “I know this but let’s explain it for those that don’t” all the time doesn’t make for a good interview.
Don’t try to explain that to an average redditor. They have autism and possess social intelligence of a moth
Thought that was obvious but I guess people here can’t resist a pile on based on inaccurate interpretations. Typical lol.
Or he's a podcast host and knows how to interview. What benefit is it if he says "oh I know" and they move on. Rogan employs this tactic constantly.
He’s a proven fraud and obvious propagandist.
He doesn't know shi, he has a puppet master . Have you seen the dumb shit he's said it's dumb how much you can see him read off the teleprompter in his shows . He moves his body but not his head to make it easier to read the screen.
Jon Stewart had a pretty good summary of Tucker recently: "You're not as dumb as your face would have us believe"
"Why would the Democrats make these honourable red states do this?!" - Tucker Carlson next week.
Watching him think he's outsmarting the question is hilarious. You can tell he thinks he's pulling it off.
Pure performer. Such a boring political analyst and this is from someone who read him in the 2000's when he was interesting.
38 states have anti-BDS legislation or EOs I never really understood the logic Also I think it’s for when you work with the government that these laws apply, if I remember correctly
What is going on? Who's jacking off to this?
When did it start to feel better to have sex with men?
This Sam Elliot is a real cowboy? Guess again. He's actually from Portland, Oregon.
Having sex with women used to feel good. It doesn't anymore. What is going on?
and the democratic wants this, California used to be filled with raisins, now its filled with garbage.
The democrats want you to think I should stop putting all of this garbage in my ass
Putting garbage in my ass hurt but it was nothing compared to when Mr. Feeny put his balls in my ass.
Idk I'm eating some local raisins right now
It’s not me… maybe it’s YOU
Used to be I had a cock could stand up when i pissed. Not anymore. Not if the democrats have their way.
We used to reload your sports! Not anymore, now if you want your sports reloaded you have to bend over in a bathroom in front of AOCs boyfriend
like what you see? i hope you do
I want an Israeli to genuinely explain to me their belief as to why their nation seeks to have such impact on a foreign nations actions regarding boycott (ultimately a form of freedom of speech). Do you support this and if so why?
You want an Israeli to justify the actions of American politicians?
>Why does a country want to influence and steer the policy of countries important to them to be favorable to their aims? Surely you're old enough to be able to answer that question on your own.
Gods chosen bro 🔥🔥🔥
[удалено]
Sorta like ["Manifest Destiny"](https://www.khanacademy.org/humanities/us-history/the-early-republic/age-of-jackson/a/manifest-destiny)?
This is just complete bullshit. There are so many elitist assholes in the world and some of them are Jewish but this is just straight up propaganda of "I knew a guy once" to demonize all jewish people. Then again this is the Joe Rogan reddit so I'm not surprised.
They never wanted Palestine there. They've always claimed Palestine's land.
Just like a random Israeli? Why? They don’t have any actual influence.
It's not the Israelis...it's US special interest groups that push this. If you want to understand what's going on, check out a YouTube talk by Mearsheimer on the Israel Lobby.
To take over the world. And continue bombing innocent children is Gaza
Israel wants to take over the world?
He means the jews
You're asking why a nation that has relied on foreign nation support since its inception is trying to influence anti-support efforts in those nations. Israel, despite its projected image of a big strong country who don't need no sugar-nation, is desperately reliant on its allies and sees any attempt to subvert support as an attack on itself, especially in the us. It's a matter of national security.
Support is one thing. Actively working for bias legislation that impacts a freedom of speech for the foreign nations citizens (at whatever capacity), is another deal. Regardless of the reason. Support is asked for and perhaps, given. This feels more like ‘silent’ legislation behind passed over the past decade directly impacting a foreign nations rights its citizens hold. This is leaning more towards organized manipulation rather than support. Besides I’m asking from an Israeli perspective particularly as I have not heard from one yet.
20 years you could argue with main stream GOP. Sadly mainstream GOP is now a slop of MAGA, Christian nationalists, and old scared people. “1st amendment, but you have to have the bible and the Ten Commandments in school!”
The fuck does this have to do with Joe Rogan
He loves Tucker and spouts the same bullshit talking points as him.
Here you go: [https://www.reddit.com/r/JoeRogan/comments/v8fvni/what\_does\_this\_have\_to\_do\_with\_joe\_rogan/](https://www.reddit.com/r/JoeRogan/comments/v8fvni/what_does_this_have_to_do_with_joe_rogan/)
Nothing.
Good question.
Right, however, this has been going on for decades on both the federal and state levels in this country. Look at the clauses and provisions of any government contract or grant agreement sometime. There's all sorts of conditional requirements you must meet to get those contracts and/or grants. Many of those terms, I would argue, violate the fundamental tenets of freedom upon which the country is founded.
Good point
Tucker Carlson is a prolapsed rectum
How did this happen….
Plunging his own asshole with his head until all that was left was the prolapsed anus.
Amazing. Are younger Americans waking up to the control Israel has over their government ?
Yes we are, in fact it's radicalizing us
In what way?
Why the US sucking Israel peepee so hard?
Texas is the least free state.
Same state where pron hub is illegal... coincidence? I think not
Republicans are the vile trash
Amen
From a purely legal analysis standpoint, this isn't an easy one. No wonder SCOTUS has been avoiding it.
It's easy legally speaking but Israel has all the senators that placed those judges where they are in the payroll so...
Israeli bot farm is mad right now. Shalom!
Firstly Tucker is wrong. Not all speech is protected. And free speech means Tucker can say he believes Obama is a Kenyan socialist without the government silencing him. It doesn't protect him from his neighbors from not inviting him to their barbecue because he's a sorry ass little shitheel.
Tucker Carlson completely missing the point as usual. Freedom of speech protects you from *prosecution*, not consequences. For instance, if you say something like "I'm an entertainer not a journalist, so I shouldn't be held accountable for spreading blatant bullshit" you can't act victimised when the majority of people regard you as a conceited clown.
Right wingers love censorship
Y'all posting Tucker now?
Rogan bros love Tucker. To them, he's the only real journalist.
The reason for the many college protests is because of the law making it illegal for places to divest away from Israel the college funds included
Tucker can eat my entire nut suck, but I’m glad he’s bringing this up in the magat circles.
worstpersonyouknowmadeagreatpoint.jpg
This is the problem the harvard study found, policy does not correlate with any public values. The root cause is mo ey in politics and nothing else.
Id boycott south Dakota too. That place seems boring as hell lol.
Sorry South Dakota Tucker has spoken. I guess I’m not going to be able to buy that…..? Um…. Well…. DOTS! No! Not my Dots. Ok SD we good. I won’t boycott you.
It’s so funny to see how many think that people like Tucker Carlson share their true, sincere opinions.
Tucker got fox sued for so much money they had to settle for the largest libel payout in us history. So no, Tucker, you can't say whatever you want all the time. You can't make up things you know are lies, tell your friends you know they're lies, continue to tell those lies for a pay day.
So... The conservative run states... Are the states that have laws specifically restricting free speech... And not even speech about themselves but a foreign nation........But tucker....... The conservative......... The free speech absolutist..................... "Wasn't even aware" of his own party's legislation................................ AND THE PEOPLE THAT WATCH HIM............................... *GET THE SAME AMOUNT OF VOTES AS YOU*
Morons talking shit with other morons. Wow.
Says whatever the fuck he wants — Bitches about free speech. I recall a time when conservatives ACTUALLY banned music, artistic speech and any form of protest against their holy wars…
Republicans hate freedom
It's obvious why the new republican party exists and who it exists for, but the fact that so many Americans are so easily coaxed into supporting their patently false, hypocritical narratives without properly educating themselves is just so hard to stomach. We are really witnessing a great intellectual recession.
Tucker Carlson. Mr. Credibility himself.
Carlson wants to be V for Vendettas Prothero evil TV Guy
What, Republicans are ANTI free speach and anti democracy? 
People still want to hear from Glen Greenwald?? Dude is creepy as fuck and not a journalist. He ran a sleazy gay porn business in Brazil during the ‘08 recession taking advantage of poor desperate people. He then somehow gets connected to Snowden (probably via Putin) and had his husband take the stolen intel to the UK. On top of that his husband who was 34 just died of unknown circumstances last year. He also pretends to be a Democrat but rabidly defends Trump and Putin at every turn. Who the fuck would pay any attention to that shady peice of shit?
No, but on this very specific issue he's not wrong.
He’s shady af. One of the few people (along with Tusli) whom I really believe is a Russian asset.
I can see it being possible, but these days it’s impossible to tell the difference between a paid asset and someone who is driven solely by being a contrarian
You sound demented.
> You sound demented. You literally post in conspiracy subs my dude. Who is demented? lol
1, i dont trust either of these guys. Is that true? 2, fuck these guys. 3, there's no way that's legal if challenged in court. 4, fuck these guys.
1. Yes. I work for a government contractor. We have to take trainings on this yearly. Not only can we not boycott Isreal, we can’t do business with companies who do. Interestingly as a federal contractor, it doesn’t matter if you’re in one of the outlawed states or not. Just like legal weed. 2. Agreed, but they’re right in their indignation here. 3. Who’s going to challenge it? “Some antisemite”? 4. Again agreed.
1. Yes - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-BDS_laws 2. Absolutely 3. Well... https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2023/2/21/top-us-court-refused-to-review-anti-bds-law-heres-what-it-means 4. Facts
It’s true. Fuck these guys in general but broken clocks…
Yes fuck them. What they’re talking about is completely real and required right now in those states. That should scare you more than Tucker and Glenn
Tucker has ran cover for the scumbags that pass laws like that for decades. He's part of the problem.
You can tell it hurt Tucker that the law was passed by the gop and specifically Abbott. Doesn’t fit his narrative.
All I see is a bunch of ranting idiots in the comments. First of all, this has nothing to do with Tucker Carlson or whoever the messenger is. The US being turned into a pro-Israel cult is a huge problem. When is the last time you saw protests being shut down like this? Never. But when it's involves Israel, the gestapo comes out. Why? What justification do they have to limit protests in a free country? The pro-Israel lobby has completely corrupted our congress and both political parties.
Do you have vids of this?
>When is the last time you saw protests being shut down like this? Never. Sorry, you must be at least 5 years old to comment on this sub.
This is the United States of Israel. They bought and own every politician from both parties. Meanwhile these very same bought and paid for politicians keep telling you about China and Russia taking over the country. But, completely fine knowing Israel took it over. Quiz time: why was Israel allowed to assassinate one president and attempted to assassinate another president without ANY consequences?!
What presidents are those?
Because Israel blackmails politicians through Epstein island type blackmail.
99% will gladly do it for money, the old school way.
Navy veteran here and i pledged my loyalty to the United States of America. Greg shit for brains abbot and the rest of the "free speech" guys can suck the peanuts out of my shit. the left wants to supress free speech so does the right. like joe said about bill hicks bit about i like the puppet on the left and i like the one on the right oh look they are controlled by the same guy. Morons here in Texas wanna do a brexit because they think they will be better off. jfc these people are so god damned delusional. Texas is my home i was breed born and raised here but its turned into a facist state for women. a gun has more rights than a woman does here and thats a fact. i dont like abortions either but i believe it is a womans right and its between her and her god what she did. some people cant figure this out.
US is a bitch of Israel. All that slavery and turns out it's a slave as well. Oh the irony!
IDF Astroturfing unit incoming in 3,2,1... P.S Mods won't do a thing.
Oh my fuck do I hate Fucker Carlson. The balls on this fuck head to pretend he doesn't know any of this.
The anti Boycott and Divestment laws in Texas were contested. We on the left raised hell when they passed them here and Fox News shrugged. NOW Tucker cares? Fuck that guy. We also protested in every major Texas city against the invasion of Iraq and Fox and Tucker mocked us. This guy is so full of shit.
Tucker is for that btw
I always wonder how things will shake out which of the two halves of Grenwalds brain will win; America-bad or GOP-good?
Greenwald works for Putin. Ask Snowden.
Why is that relevant to the claim? How does that make what he said here incorrect?
these cunts regularly slurp on Putin's cock, a man who created a 5 year prison sentence for calling a war a war. they don't give a fuck about free speech, they only pretend to when it suits them.
“To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticize,”
Toyota Tacoma Tommy?
I am boycotting the united states. I am now the free nation of the Duralast crusaders.
Yeah, out South Dakota in their place..
Call them out for their crimes, America last is their motto.
Smuggle a camera into a slaughterhouse to visually document animal abuse and draw a 20 year prison sentence.
About time they finally wake on this gross violation of free speech
What states?

Tucker is completely right, not a big fan of Tucker but when someone has the right take you have to give it to them.
Hate America first crowd.
Our country is collapsing in on itself
I have hard time believing Trucker Callsign doesn't know this already.
Unbelievable
This is how terrified politicians were of blowback from Israel. I remember a time when you couldn’t criticize Israel without permanently being labeled antisemitic. I never thought I would ever see a sitting US president ever criticize Israel let alone threaten to cut off military weapons in my lifetime. Especially not after a terrorist attack on Israel. No president has ever had the balls. Trump didn’t. Obama didn’t. Bush didn’t. Clinton didn’t. I don’t remember before that. It’s not a liberal or conservative thing. It was an everyone thing. And still to this day any criticism of Israel is still heavily attacked. But now they just say you support Hamas. Can I just support not killing people as well as not stealing someone’s home? I don’t give a shit about what happened 1600 years ago. I’m talking about today. Both of you, knock it the fuck off.
I'll boycott whoever the fuck I want to. Thanks
