Oh, the horror. Oh, the tragedy.
Thing is, Graham Platner doesn’t ACT like a Nazi. He acts like a man who cares about his community, his state, and his country, which he actually served as a soldier, and during which service he obtained said tattoo.
Our president, on the other hand, IS an actual fucking Nazi – whose own military service, which he called his “own personal Vietnam,” consisted of a bout of syphilis – and who has installed an actual fascist government, and you’re trembling in your Mary Janes over one ex-soldier-turned-fisherman’s ink, lol.
I note you have not a single word to say about Hegseth’s actual Nazi tattoos, (archive link) much less the administration in place that is fascist by definition.
Nope, you’re going against the one guy that actually cares about his neighbors and his state, trotting out squeals of disapproval over a single (very common) tattoo like it’s 1955 and you’re his grandmother afraid he’s going to hell for it, lol.
Let me go cry in terror and moral outrage now because I saw a grown man’s ink, lol. Oh, wait . . . that’s not my position, that’s yours.
Note: Out of many articles available on the far-right associations of Hegseth’s tattoos, I specifically chose Der Spiegel because they know Nazis better than anyone else. It translates easily. Here’s the upshot: “It is unlikely that Pete Hegseth would not be aware of all this: “Crusader symbolism” today primarily represents right-wing radical or even right-wing extremist sentiment.” Have fun.
Fettermam and Sinema didn’t act like conservatives before being elected either.
I hope you are right about Platner, but until then, I’m skeptical of him.
