Tucker Carlson Is Over All the Covid Talk: ‘Imagine Telling People About Your Prostate Every Day’
As the Omicron variant of Covid-19 spreads, so have fears about a winter surge of Covid-19 cases and deaths. While it’s extremely unlikely that a vaccinated person who gets Covid will die from the disease, many Americans simply aren’t vaccinated. As a result, the U.S. currently has a seven-day rolling average of more than 1,200 deaths from Covid per day.
On Thursday, Tucker Carlson addressed the uptick in Covid talk of late, saying it’s time to move on from the issue – at least in private conversations.
“Here’s a piece of advice,” he began a mini-monologue. “If you find yourself living in a place where people are still talking about Covid nonstop two years in, it is time to move. Not just because your neighbors have been brainwashed – though obviously they have been – but because your neighbors are boring.
He added,
At this point it is simply not an interesting topic for your private life. Yes, Covid has killed a lot of people. So has prostate cancer. Imagine telling people about your prostate every day for the next two years. People would know that you were a narcissist. No one would sit next to you at dinner. You would be boorish. And that’s exactly what Covid talk sounds to the well-adjusted among us.
When we talk about Covid incessantly, we miss everything else. And that’s the the real point. This is a big and complicated and completely fascinating world. Babies are born. The elderly die. And in between all kinds of amazing things happen. We succeed, we fail, we scheme, we inspire, we fall in love, we create things that hadn’t existed before, we have deep and valuable insights into life itself. Human beings do a remarkable variety of legitimately interesting things. Talking about Corona is not one of them. So let’s stop.
