Tucker Carlson

I did something wrong.

I'm going to admit it.

I think that's really important for the sake of preserving your soul.

And also, by the way, you get credibility when you're honest about yourself.

It's easy to be honest about other people.

You're fat.

But it's hard to say I'm fat, right?

So I agree with that on one level, but it's also just not true.

We are subject to forces that we can't control.

It's just a fact.

I didn't write the tax code, for example.

I don't have any control over the hiring standards at various companies or the admission standards at various schools.

Those are systemic problems.

It's just a fact.

They are systems.

Those are rules written by other people over which I have no control.

So for Ben Shapiro to say it's outrageous, it's a conspiracy theory to blame the system does make me suspect maybe you're a beneficiary of a system that you can't actually defend.

And so you're attacking me for asking questions about that system.

That's just my reaction to what he said.

Oh, I agree.
