Tucker Carlson returned to Twitter on Tuesday for an epic interview with social media influencer and former professional kickboxer Andrew Tate who has been accused of human trafficking and is currently under house arrest in Romania where he lives.
The former Fox News ratings king traveled overseas for his sit-down with the controversial Tate, in a wide-ranging discussion that hit on many of the biggest social taboos in the extended two-and-a-half-hour talk that, as of early Wednesday morning, had already amassed more than 38 million views on the social media platform.

After a brief introduction on the systemic emasculation of men in modern American society, which he called a “grotesque and destructive” experiment, he set the stage for Tate, who has consistently emphasized the importance of masculinity for the extended episode nine of “Tucker on Twitter” which judging from early numbers, could be his most popular one yet.
“My message is traditional masculinity,” Tate said in response to the question of what it is about his message that so infuriates people. “My message is to stand up and say what you mean and mean what you say and even going to the gym nowadays is an act of defiance because when you have a man who’s built with any degree of principle, you say no to things.

“And I think if I have to analyze my message and why I’m so disliked by the people who dislike me, it’s not the things I’m saying, it’s the fact that if you adhere to my principles and you adhere to the things I say you end up being the kind of person who will resist certain ideas,” he said.
Tate also called it as he saw it on the Ukraine/NATO vs. Russia conflict.
“If you are naïve enough to believe that there are good guys and bad guys in wars and it’s as simple as good & bad… you need to do a little more investigation…,” he said, drawing a response from Carlson who said, “That’s the truest thing.. and anyone who doesn’t understand that should shut the f**k up”
