The case against Darryl Cooper A warning to the Right about the man Tucker Carlson called 'the best and most honest popular historian in the United States'
2025-07-21
[BeingRight] Earlier this week, Tucker Carlson announced that he will once again be hosting podcaster Darryl Cooper on The Tucker Carlson Show, this time for a live primetime interview about the Jeffrey Epstein case. In a reply to Tucker’s announcement post on X, I said the following:

Darryl Cooper is a Nazi, and you’re setting what’s left of your reputation on fire for not only choosing to platform him, but praising him like this.

This admittedly provocative reply has gotten over 46,000 impressions and received over 1,000 likes. In response, I’ve gotten a lot of nasty replies, many of them undeniably antisemitic. (I’m not Jewish, but if you defend Israel or attack Nazism or antisemitism, you’re going to receive antisemitic comments.)

I did have several people ask me, many of them seemingly in good faith, why I called Cooper a Nazi. One person even kindly DM’d me and said something to the effect of "Hey, I followed you recently, and I like most of what you say, but I’m not sure about this one. Can you explain why you called him that?"

First, I don’t call someone a Nazi lightly. Unfortunately, a lot of people completely brush off the term because for the last decade, the American Left has been calling everyone one inch to their right a Nazi. When I use the term, I mean specifically that the person I’m calling a Nazi holds reverence or sympathy for Adolf Hitler and the Nazi regime. I think Cooper meets that criterion. Here are just a few examples that support the claim.

Last year, someone on X asked Cooper the following question:

In your read of history, do you believe a united continental Europe under Nazi/Hitler rule would have been a better outcome than what actually transpired? | I assume far less innocent people would have died, but in your opinion, would that have been the better outcome in totality?

Cooper replied:

I can't imagine anything worse happening than what did happen.
How about Hitler getting away with it and genociding the entire Jewish population of Europe?

In another post, he posted two pictures. On the right was the blasphemous "Last Supper" depiction from the opening ceremony of the 2024 Paris Olympics. On the left was a photo of Hitler and his entourage with the Eiffel Tower behind them after France fell to the Nazis. Along with those two photos, Cooper posted:

This may be putting it too crudely for some, but the picture on the left was infinitely preferable in virtually every way than the one on the right.

In another post on X last summer, Cooper posted a photo of himself driving a tractor while holding a coffee mug with what looks like a Nazi eagle insignia on it with the caption, "Guten morgen, fellas."

#7  Cooper spends a fair amount of time hanging out online with Thomas777 and Pete Quinones. (Look them up.) So yeah: the Nazi designation pretty much checks out. Not as some kind of insult but as objectively true.

#6  Kanye is very wealthy. His anti Semitic stuff is, probably based on mental illness.

Daryl Cooper is not at all wealthy I think. A good chance his anti Semitic stuff is partly a money making strategy.

Tucker may be doing both.

#5  The 'books' being burned were not Plato or Aristotle.

“Deviant” of all sorts, Jewish… the Nazis burn both.

Kanye West is operating on a combination of bipolar mania, a desire for attention, good or bad, and a number of anti-Jewish, anti-white, and other conspiracy theories accepted in swathes of the African-American community for at least a century. The man has so much talent, but the mind that carries those talents is seriously flawed.

#4  Is someone making excuses for Nazi book-burning? Unbelievable. What's next, those books were all written by Jews, eh, Adolf? I find your insanity intriguing and would like to subscribe to your newsletter.
This excuse-making for Nazis is getting out of hand. I blame Kanye West. He was the one who really broke the dam for young people. He was fiercely punished afterwards (he just did a concert in China because that's the only place he can play now) but the damage was done. He'll never be able to play in America again. We're talking about a man whose latest hit was a song called - and I am not making this up- Heil Hitler.

#3  I read 95% of 1930's Germans belonged to a church, with Protestants and Catholic Women voting overwhelmingly for the Nazi Party.

I also discovered recently that that famous picture of the Nazis burning books was mostly a pysop. The 'books' being burned were not Plato or Aristotle. The 'books' burned were from a private collection of a deviant gay activists that was a pain in the butt to the nazi regime. The collection was of really gay non-binary stuff, pedophilic books about pederasty, and other non-normal sexual deviations.

Book Burning vs Burning Pederasty has two different energies and vibes.
