Both should be aliased to live tucker reaction instead.

Yeah, but Tucker (Tucker Carlson) reaction is straight up just the actual origin of the meme. The other ones (slug, etc.) came later.

that's the origin.

back in 2021 during a speech by Biden, Fox News put a facecam of Tucker Carlson in the corner labled LIVE TUCKER REACTION. presumably this was going to be a thing they'd do more than once, but they got memed for it so hard they never did it again. (see: KYM)

Fair enough

Although I do still think that live_reaction_(meme) is a better name for the tag, more general and less likely to make people suddenly think of Tucker Carlson while going through the site. (i don't feel that strongly about it though, up to people what they prefer)

That might be a more open name, but for memes I believe they should always use the original name if it exists. Especially if Know Your Meme has it with a description

Alias autocorrect is sufficient for directing people to live_reaction_(meme) → live_tucker_reaction, it avoids an awkward (meme) suffix, it's better for broader internet searching, and if a different "live reaction" meme format comes along it means the Tucker version is already nonambiguous.
