Darryl Cooper's Provocative Claims: A Modern Echo of Nazi Propaganda
Recently, Darryl Cooper's appearance on The Tucker Carlson Show has stirred considerable debate, and it’s worth examining why this might make figures like Adolf Hitler and Joseph Goebbels sit up and take notice. Cooper's rhetoric on the show seemed almost tailor-made for those familiar with Nazi-era propaganda techniques, blending historical revisionism with modern-day provocations.
Hitler and Goebbels were experts in the art of disinformation and creating narratives that served their political ends. Cooper's recent commentary, particularly his revisionist take on Winston Churchill and his alleged whitewashing of Nazi crimes, mirrors some of the same tactics used by the Nazis. As someone who has delved deeply into Hitler’s radicalization and Nazi propaganda campaigns, I found the parallels striking.

In Mein Kampf , Hitler outlined the role of propaganda as a tool to attract followers. Cooper’s boast that his podcast has climbed to the top of the iTunes charts is a testament to his success in capturing attention through provocative content. Much like Goebbels, who used scandalous tactics to provoke reactions and generate headlines, Cooper thrives on pushing boundaries, often commenting on how close he can get to crossing ethical lines without actually doing so.
One of Cooper’s more astonishing claims was that after 1940, Hitler sought a comprehensive peace with Britain but was thwarted by Churchill. This assertion would likely have left Hitler baffled, given that Hitler’s strategy was to secure German dominance through territorial expansion and genocidal policies rather than a peace deal with Britain. For Hitler, eliminating Jews and conquering Eastern Europe were integral to his vision of security, far beyond what a peace treaty with Britain could provide.
Cooper's focus on attacking Churchill as the “chief villain” of World War II is not just about historical revisionism but serves as a broader critique of Western postwar values. Churchill is a symbol of the Western order established post-1945, and by disparaging him, Cooper challenges the legitimacy of that order. His attacks on Churchill, coupled with Carlson’s endorsement, reflect a deeper disdain for the values that have shaped modern conservatism, as represented by institutions like Hillsdale College and the legacy of President George W. Bush’s Oval Office Churchill statue.
Furthermore, Cooper's views extend into his acceptance of violence for political ends, a stance that reflects a disturbing readiness to condone extremism. His unwillingness to criticize mob violence against Britons of color underscores a troubling acceptance of violence as a legitimate political tool.
The airing of Cooper’s views on Carlson’s show represents a broader challenge to the postwar consensus and American conservatism. It signals an attempt to reshape or even dismantle the ideological foundations that have long underpinned the GOP and conservative thought. The reaction from the conservative establishment will be crucial in determining whether these extremist ideas gain traction or are firmly rejected, shaping the future of American conservatism in the process.
In essence, Cooper’s appearance is more than just a provocative media event; it’s a reflection of a deeper ideological battle over the legacy of Western values and the future direction of American conservatism.
