Which economic and political ideologies would you suggest for his little goldfish brain?

(p.s. -- inspired by my appreciation, AJ1 😉 )
Stop insulting fish.

A goldfish only knows one thing.

Eat.

That is capitalism.

Average Joe eats 😏

Have you seen the recent news about fisherman pulling goldfish out of the lakes?
They are huge and ready to eat more.

Naughty Joe 😏
They also have very short memory spans, that must be why no matter how many times you answer his inane questions he swears blind that you haven’t answered his inane questions.
That other Kevin might be onto something here.

We hashed this. Tucker said this in the vein of being a show host and couching this and that.
But my question, and could you relay it to Suzianne, is for you to tell me an exact lie that Tucker told. What lie? Did he say that Hunter robbed the First National Bank in Toledo on Jan 13, 2018.? That would be a lie. I know he did NOT, I googled it to be sure.
What lie?

Geez. NOW I know why libs don't answer questions....they don't RECOGNIZE questions. I have asked it at least 20 times. And you may mine one at the library, and I will admit it, you got me. But I have not seen it yet.

Fox News host Tucker Carlson (Fox News)

Tucker Carlson admitted during a recent interview with conservative talk show host Dave Rubin that he “sometimes lies” on his show.

The Fox News host appeared on a YouTube programme hosted by Mr Rubin on Sunday and was asked to explain why, supposedly, other TV network anchors lie.

Carlson responded: “I mean, I lie if I’m really cornered or something. I lie.”

He added: “I really try not to. I try never to lie on TV. I just don’t ― I don’t like lying [but] I certainly do it, you know, out of weakness or whatever.”

The 52-year-old host claimed that his rivals at competing cable networks like CNN “systematically” and deliberately lie to protect “the system”.

He added: “So if these people ask themselves why am I doing this? And they say, well, I want to protect the system because I really believe in the system. OK, who’s running the system? You’re lying to defend Jeff Bezos? Like, you’re treating Bill Gates like some sort of moral leader, like, are you kidding me? How dare you do that?”

Rubin, the host of the YouTube show The Rubin Report, had asked Carlson how CNN employees like Chris Cuomo and Brian Stelter “live with themselves...when they just lie again and again and we have the internet to expose the lies.”

Carlson is known to espouse controversial theories with little basis in fact on his programme. In September 2020, Fox News won a defamation suit against Carlson by successfully arguing that “given Mr Carlson’s reputation, any reasonable viewer arrive[s] with an appropriate amount of scepticism about the statement he makes”.

A Manhattan federal judge had ruled that “[Carlson] is not stating actual facts” about the topics he discusses and is instead engaging in “exaggeration” and “non-literal commentary”.

The Poynter Institute’s fact-checking site PolitiFact surveyed 18 statements made by Carlson, finding that only six of those statements had some degree of truth.

I've got an idea. Why don't you and Suzianne tell me that you have already told me an exact lie that he has told? Then, though he has not, you will feel better, and feel that you have bested Average Joe, though you have not. Your fantasy-ism will carry you over the finish line.
Best part, I can fry other fish instead of joust with insipid (zzzzz) posts.
No more. Tell everyone you bested Joe, and I will back you up.

Well you said it best, I called you on it, and you're slithering away,

That little rhyme was posted in our locker room back in the early 70's.

I don't like the title of this thread. Though I disagree with several people here on a great many things, and very much doubt average joe ever taught economics to anyone, I don't believe in name calling and other disrespectful language designed to belittle people.

Thumbs down from me Keven. 😕
Thank you, and the thumb-down accepted.

I agree with you in principle, but figured AverageJoe would see the humorous intent, and also that he was capable of objecting on his own behalf.
