Mark Levin's call to deplatform Tucker Carlson and Nick Fuentes
A public fight has broken out on the American right, with Fox News host Mark Levin openly calling for critics inside the conservative movement to be canceled and deplatformed.
- Levin said he has spent six months fighting figures like Tucker Carlson and Nick Fuentes and wants them pushed off platforms.
- He listed antisemitism and criticism of Winston Churchill as grounds for cancellation.
- Carlson hit back by saying Levin now sounds like the left-wing activists conservatives used to attack, and looks eager to punish people who disagree with him.
- The deeper charge: the politicians and media figures elected on an anti-cancel-culture platform two years ago are behaving like the people they replaced, only more aggressively.
Outlook: The split between establishment conservative media and the newer online right is widening, and more public attacks between the two camps are likely.
