On 9 September 2022, Tucker Carlson said this on his own Fox News show:
"Strong countries dominate week countries, and that trend shows no sign of changing. What you can say about the English is that they took their colonial responsibility seriously. They did not just take things, they added.
The British Empire was more than just. The British did not commit genocide, except possibly against the Dutch during the Boer War. The British did give us the Magna Carta, habeas corpus, free speech. They ended the transatlantic slave trade as well as the ritual murder of widows in India.
The British Empire spread Protestant Christianity to the entire world and published some of the greatest literature ever written and produced some of the finest manufactured goods ever made anywhere at any time, including now. It was an impressive place run by impressive people.
We will see many empires going forward, but we will never see one so benign. That’s true, and because it is true, the people who would like to run the world in a far harsher way would like to make certain that you don’t know it. And so they destroy the evidence. The evidence that it ever existed...
Slander the ruler, discredit the entire period she lived in. And that’s exactly why they are attacking Queen Elizabeth tonight. Not because she was a bad person, she wasn't a bad person, but because she lived during a better time."
