Tucker Carlson falsely claims Joe Biden called white Republican men "more dangerous than ISIS"

Biden actually said: "Terrorism from white supremacy is the most lethal threat to the homeland today -- not ISIS, not al-Qaida, white supremacists." pic.twitter.com/Z8gaoC54J3

One Carlson Theory
Tucker Carlson conflates the two things not just as propaganda (although it is, with the intent of sharpening the feelings of misplaced grievance his viewers have) but because he is unaware that it's possible to be white without being a white supremacist. He certainly has never tried it.
As a small addition--this is an abusive tactic: "The anti-racists are the REAL RACISTS." It comes from the same screwy moral place that the anti-critical race theory drive, and reminds me of how abusers react to the threat of accountability: Deny, Attack, Reverse Victim and Offender. The denial is perpetuated by saying things like "white supremacy isn't that bad a threat" or isn't even real, attacking critics (obviously lying to do so--in other words, gaslighting), and claiming victimization for himself (on behalf of all white dudes).
