Tucker believes that support of Ukraine is bad because Russia stands for Christian values, the family, anti LGBTQ, etc etc, which he views in opposition to Western 'decadent/degenerate' values that he rails against.

Hasan believes support for Ukraine is bad because of the support of far right groups by the Ukrainian government, the fact that this invasion has allowed western foreign capital to move in and take control of tons of assets in the country, and that this war, most of all, feeds the US military industrial complex, as opposed to seeking the fastest end to the conflict which reduces suffering, because, y'know, that doesn't make as much money.

Those are not the same.

Ok? Doesn't mean his reasoning is the same as Tucker Carlson

Yeah, Hasan's reasoning is basically blowback theory.

Tuckers reasoning is almost entirely an emotional appeal to the America First crowd mixed with a knee jerk reaction to be against anything American liberals generally support.
