Tucker Carlson Spews Truly Evil Trash About Trans People In 'Christianity' Rant

Tucker Carlson seized on a mass shooting in Tennessee to spread vile and dangerous anti-transgender hate on Tuesday, joining a chorus of other prominent right-wingers.

Steering well clear of the gun control issue, the Fox News host sought instead to peg Monday’s violence as evidence of a war between Christians and transgender people. The 28-year-old shooter, whom authorities identified as trans, killed six people at a private Christian school they used to attend before the assailant was shot dead by police.

“Why are some trans people so angry, and why do they seem to be mad, specifically, at traditional Christians? We can’t think of any trans person who’s ever been murdered by a pastor,” Carlson said.

Pushing his trademark “us against them” rhetoric, Carlson then suggested that trans people and Christians are “natural enemies” that can never be reconciled.

“The trans movement is the mirror image of Christianity and therefore its natural enemy,” he said. “In Christianity, the price of admission is admitting that you’re not God. Christians openly concede that they have no real power over anything, for that matter.”

“The trans movement takes the opposite view. Trans ideology claims dominion over nature itself,” he said. “‘We can change the identity we were born with.’”
