Reply to comment by thelastevergreen in M&M's replaces its spokescandies with Maya Rudolph after Tucker Carlson's rants by koavf

Seems more like they are conceding to his demands. I don't like that they are giving his commentary any consideration at all.

I don't like that they're giving him attention (even if not actually calling him out by name) but they're doing so in a way that just makes him look absurd and turns him into a punchline, while also turning any inevitable backlash or retort into free advertising.

By leaning into this, they also know the absurdity of the move will also be commented on my late night TV hosts, which just results in more free advertising.

I’d have put the heels back on her, then announced she was trans. Imagine Tucker’s face when he realized he’d been jerking it to trans-candy this entire time.

Even NPR was calling out Tucker's weird sexual angle with M&Ms yesterday.
