because I am built the way I am internally I have a deep desire for a guy like this to fall hard, to feel some pain and regret over how the choices he's made about how to look at the world have resulted in both 1) a worse world for others and 2) a waste of potential, which is to say, I am kind of a simpleton who doesn't accept the actual realities of the world, which are that he was born rich and will die rich and 100% does not give a shit where he has to peddle his grift at this point because the mechanisms for converting setbacks into gain are all right there for him, and yet I can't rid myself of the desire for him to be thinking, I fucked up, I fucked up, perhaps I am the problem

I was tempted to feel that way when I read this story too — I don’t actually watch his show, so my first reaction was that it was a surprising moment of introspection. but others more familiar with him see through it:
This text is emblematic of Carlson’s rhetorical strategy on his every show: overtly pushes hate, racism, encouraging brutality, but then he rhetorically stands back from it, as if to say, but of course, I am a good person and am not advocating this very thing I relentlessly push. pic.twitter.com/ylzgd8DlCq— 𝙼𝚊𝚡𝚒𝚖𝚒𝚕𝚕𝚒𝚊𝚗 𝙿𝚘𝚝𝚝𝚎𝚛 (@maxapotter) May 3, 2023

I guess his Twitter show debuted last night.
NYT:
The 10-minute video, Mr. Carlson’s first extended commentary since Fox took him off the air in April, was similar to a stripped-down version of what his roughly three million Fox viewers would have seen on his nightly program.There were no guests or produced segments — only a monologue from Mr. Carlson, in which he hit some familiar themes. He expressed sympathy for President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia and mocked President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine. He accused the mainstream media of lying. He wrapped up by declaring that U.F.O.s and extraterrestrial life are “actually real.”“As of today, we’ve come to Twitter,” Mr. Carlson said in the video. “We’re told there are no gatekeepers here. If that turns out to be false, we’ll leave.”

Tucker Carlson’s First Twitter “Show” Is BadTo be clear, I don’t mean it’s “bad” ideologically. It’s genuinely a poorly made and extremely pathetic attempt from a production standpoint. It’s boring and ugly and would not do well on a platform that had real metrics. If it wasn’t being heavily promoted by Elon Musk and his cronies I’m not even sure it would do well on Twitter.Carlson’s video is 10 minutes of meandering ranting and archival footage and I honestly couldn’t even tell you what it’s about. It doesn’t even have graphics, apart from a “Tucker On Twitter” watermark. Bro, hire a teenaged MrBeast fan to give you some fun subtitles or dynamic zoom cuts or something.

No-one watches his Twitter stuff, despite Musk's desperate gaming of the system, do they? Guff like this feels like some kind of last gasp, before the churn of what I'll laughing call the "culture" sends Carlson through the u-bend to his inescapable destiny next to Glenn Beck and all the rest of the tired and wrung-out ghouls. None of the "stars" are bigger than the structure in this world of right-wing media demegoguery, and even that structure seems to be degrading in the face of Newsmax et al, who are, in their moment of cannibalising the mothership, making the whole thing more atomised and cliquey, which is surely not their point.

MUST SEE TV
Far-right pundit and former Fox News host Tucker Carlson confirmed on Tuesday he was in Moscow to interview Vladimir Putin, and said he will air his conversation with Russia’s president to counter what he described as pro-Ukraine “fawning pep sessions” by western media covering the war.
Speculation had been growing for days that Carlson, who was dumped by Fox last year for “getting too big for his boots”, had traveled to the Russian capital to meet Putin, whose reasons for invading Ukraine he says have a right to be heard by the American public.
But his visit, which reportedly has included visits to the Bolshoi ballet and dining in fine restaurants, has drawn accusations he is acting as a propaganda tool for Putin, whom he has frequently defended. Russian media, meanwhile, has hailed Carlson as a celebrity “who speaks the truth”.
