WHAT? But she JUST allowed a VERY VERY VERY Unpopular Data Center to be Built? HOW was that NOT a Winning Strategy?
Idk enough about these candidates to have a real opinion. But, as an American, I just want people voted in who make Trumps final 2 years in office absolute hell on earth for him and his idiot pals
Platnir may possibly be a nazi, as he had gotten a famous nazi tattoo while in the military and a disturbing reddit account, which details i cannot remember. Platnir has SAID hes a changed man, and at this point we can only hope thats true
Mills is an old guard useless democrat.
What was disturbing on his reddit account, specifically?
Regarding his tattoo, I regretfully wouldn’t have known either had someone pointed it out. They act like it’s a swastika but I guarantee most people if they saw his tattoo wouldn’t know what it was. I can see a silly Marine in his twenties doing something dumb like that and just picking it out of a book because it “looked cool,” so I just need more than that personally. As soon as it was brought to public attention, he had it covered it up so seems reasonable. In my younger years I thought all the German stuff was cool. I played WWII games, listened to Rammstein, and never really connected the dots until later. I kind of get the same impression from Platner – also why are you misspelling his name when it’s in the headline? I see this done a lot by right-wing operatives. Hope it’s just an innocent mistake.
I mean could he be another Fetterman? I guess anything is possible, but what other choice do we have?
Lsten to his interview with Jon Stewart. I had no idea who he was, but after that interview I want many more like him running across the nation. It was cute listening to Jon and him fangirling at each other by the end of the interview.
I did! Pretty good interview, as well as the one he did with John Favreau. I’m cautiously optimistic, but I have flashbacks to Fetterman that I’m still traumatized by lol
It is a pretty popular Nazi insignia. Maybe like the third most known Nazi symbol. I heard somewhere that he’s a war historian by hobby. I’m sure the tattoo artist from Croatia knew what it was. Have you ever seen the “Are we the baddies?” meme? The skull that he’s talking about in that meme source is the same Totenkopf design.
Doubt he was a war historian back when he was in the Marines though.
Also I’m honestly not getting:
from:
Because that’s what he covered it with after people pointed out he was sporting Nazi symbols.
Oh thanks!
This?
I see it now that it’s been connected, but I genuinely still would not see it if I was a Marine grunt in my 20s. Just cool skull and crossbones kinda thing probably. Equally as close to pirate stuff.
I would too. The thing that bothers me, however, is that there’s evidence that he knew of its meaning at least several years ago. But he only bothered to get it covered up after launching this political campaign and people noticing it. If I got a tattoo and later found out it was a Nazi symbol, I’d get that shit covered or removed ASAP.
Yeah I’d buy that as an excuse. That he was a dumb marine, and the tattoo artist in Croatia wasn’t a fan of American Marines being in his country, so he branded him with a Nazi tattoo, and he was too drunk to know what it is. He handled it later in life as he should, but it doesn’t mean that other people should play dumb about it.
Reddit thing-I honestly cannot say as I never found it and havent cared to look. What people posted about it I didnt care to memorize. Im only holding out for a chance that hes changed, i dont want to read into his past.
Name thing- i also havent cared to memorize platner. I think “palantir” is digging into my mind. I dont know the names of people ive worked with for years so…ehh.
Again, Im also hoping hes not who he was years ago. Its all we got.
Maybe we shouldn’t spread rumors then if it’s a struggle to memorize a name in the headline or even know what the content was that was allegedly so disturbing…?
He deleted his posts before launching his campaign.

I appreciate the links, thanks! This is pretty much what I’ve heard and nothing I see as a complete deal-breaker. Some of what I see there tends to be somewhat reasonable:
n his posts, he said all police are bastards, and rural White Americans “actually are” racist and stupid, reported CNN. He also responded to a 2013 post about asking people from other races questions.
As someone who grew up rural and white, I can see where he’s coming from and how he’d come to that conclusion.
Please stop spelling it like that. Being a nazi is one thing, but associating him with Palentir is just rude.
Holy shit the thumbnail of her sad face is fucking diabolical.
