... Bad Faith enters, yet again. When someone like Tucker Carlson,
Alex Jones, or Stephen Colbert adopts a persona for long enough, they
run the risk of inhabiting it. Colbert is competent. So his risk was
minimal. But Jones seems to have gotten totally lost. I'm not sure
about Carlson.
In 2016 I was promoting a Stephen Colbert/Tina Fey ticket on the belief
that half the Republicans would mistake them for their most notable
characters while most Democrats would recognize the best aspects of
satire that those characters inhabited.
Jones and Tucker are (from my POV which may be flawed itself) have long
been "caricatures of themselves"...
My parents were acutely good at not allowing me to project much with
them manipulatively... they seemed to *almost always* actually respond
to what I was thinking/feeling rather than any actions or affects I
might have tried to generate to get a specific response from them. I
very much appreciate that style of levelness, for all the ways it
interfered with my childhood deviousness.
