It's a small skeleton in the closet.

The skeleton i-am-adolf-hitler

He just released a picture of covering up that tattoo, but you can also see a "1919" tattoo on his right arm lmao.

I'm sorry, everyone, but I think I lathed this. Since the Ukraine War began I've been joking that liberals would excuse Nazi tattoos by saying "Just because he has a swastika on his chest doesn't mean we know what's in his heart." I didn't expect the boomerang to hit Maine so soon.

[–] CoolerOpposide@hexbear.net 41 points 4 days ago (4 children)

Well, it is the closest state to Ukraine

I'm finding it fairly strange how so many liberals have been rallying the wagons around Mr. Blackwater Backwater hard-core like but going oooaaaaaaauhhh over commie Mamdani taking his wife to dinner. Like is it a racism thing or is oysterfucker a poison pill or what

[–] thelastaxolotl@hexbear.net 51 points 4 days ago

pronouns Libs "How dare commie mamdani takes his wife to a nice dinner and not a food truck?? "

Libs: "He is just a 41 year old boy, he didnt know he got 2 nazi tattoos" powercry-1

Liberals hate socialists more than they hate fascists.

[–] ExotiqueMatter@lemmygrad.ml 11 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Do they even hate fascist at all?

[–] Collatz_problem@hexbear.net 4 points 3 days ago

They find fascists uncouth.

[–] Parzivus@hexbear.net 42 points 4 days ago

If in doubt, it's a racism thing. Especially when Muslims are the target

My conspiracy theory is that Platner is a Democratic Party plant meant to divide and delegitimize the center-left, so they're boosting messages that support him to keep the struggle session alive

[–] MayoPete@hexbear.net 20 points 4 days ago

Occum's Razor tells me this guy is controversial, so he generates clicks and lots of "content", so of course media companies are pushing stories about him onto our feeds to keep those sweet ad dollars coming in.

The way way to "win" is to stop paying attention.

[–] came_apart_at_Kmart@hexbear.net 67 points 4 days ago (3 children)

a monster energy drink logo tattoo is regrettable.

a nazi tattoo is beyond regret, and to not have it removed once one "comes to jesus" in their politics is not worth entertaining as real.

[–] GrouchyGrouse@hexbear.net 29 points 4 days ago

Most tattoo shops will help cover up hate and gang tattoos for free or the cost of ink, it’s literally just a matter of finding the time to schedule an appointment with an artist who is willing to help you.

I don't follow people closely but I thought Krystal Ball was anti genocide, and Ryan Grim cofounded Drop Site and does very good journalism.

I'm astonished to see both of them defending some war criminal with Nazi tattoos.

Idk anything about the guy really, all I heard was "proud veteran" and he was already cancelled in my mind. The only way I'll consider allying with an AmeriKKKan veteran is if they're ashamed of it, apologetic, guilt-ridden, consider joining up a mistake, are committed to trying to atone for their mistake, and say "death 2 AmeriKKKa" every night before they go to bed. Anyone who's proud of being an American soldier is a Nazi in my book.

[–] goferking0@lemmy.sdf.org 35 points 4 days ago (1 children)

This continues to break my brain. So many are shockingly okay with it or his reasons for still having it.

[–] BeanisBrain@hexbear.net 33 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (3 children)

America has a deep cultural brainworm about how serving your country is inherently honorable regardless of what your country is actually doing (because such a belief benefits the bourgeois and makes it easier to rehabilitate the Wehrmacht)

Literally opening the door for a fucking fascist to come in because he blows smoke up your ass about being opposed to one specific genocide, while repping a tat that explicitly supports other genocides. These fucking people get taken for ride after ride than budge an inch left.

[–] mendiCAN@hexbear.net 26 points 4 days ago (4 children)

they aren't being genuine ofc. they're manufacturing consent for fascism.

you know that too but it's worth making clear methinks

This is the end result of 3+ years of western media "accidentally" putting swastika covered azov Nazis on the front of every story out of Ukraine.

I'm sorry. I must have missed when the Dems tried being purity-testing and exclusionary.

When was that?

[–] NephewAlphaBravo@hexbear.net 44 points 4 days ago

when they ratfucked the mildest socdem bern-disgust

[–] MaxOS@hexbear.net 30 points 4 days ago

Maybe when they all finally agreed that Joe Biden had dementia.

Amerikkka is such a fucking shit hole that even our "socialists" are fascists 💀

American Communist Party moments.

ITS A FUCKING TOTENKOPF FUCK THIS COUNTRY

THATS LITERALLY SUPPORTING A GENOCIDE

AAAAAAAAAAA

[–] Jabril@hexbear.net 45 points 5 days ago

they tried it the other way

Famously there are two options, Nazi mercenaries or my grandma on her time off between hip replacement surgery and physical therapy sessions

[–] footfaults@lemmygrad.ml 42 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Hate when I have to tell Ryan Grim that he's wrong on this matter.

BOTH CANDIDATES ARE BAD, FOR DIFFERENT REASONS!

We don't have to pick between two bad choices. There's a fucking YEAR before the election, we need a different option.

[–] Philosoraptor@hexbear.net 30 points 4 days ago

A small [very large] skeleton [Nazi death's head] in his closet [permanently inscribed on his largest organ].

[–] InevitableSwing@hexbear.net 32 points 4 days ago

The election is in 54 weeks not two fucking weeks. Force Nazi tattoos guy to drop out. Fucking liberal "progressive" pundits can eat shit.

[–] TheModerateTankie@hexbear.net 38 points 4 days ago

How the fuck can anyone trust this guy? People who are impressed by ex-military assholes are fucking rubes.

[–] dkr567@hexbear.net 34 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (1 children)

Now even Ryan Grim and Drop Site is defending that nazi fuck + his role as a mercenary/marine in Iraq and Afghanistan. Amerikkkans just astound me.

Election is six months away and I hear there’s a left lane in a potential 4 way race. That was plenty of time in NYC for Zohran with a far more entrenched political establishment

I know this news is all pretty new, but left orgs in Maine need to capitalize on a prime opportunity to show that they can take the left lane away from a guy with Nazi tattoos, even if they don’t actually win the election

"Normal people"

"Regretable tattoo over steadfast support for genocide" Ah yes, a Nazi would never support genocide.

How the fuck do you call a waffen totenkopf a "small skeleton in the closwt" and expect to be taken seriously as a journalist wtf

[–] PorkrollPosadist@hexbear.net 21 points 4 days ago

In my opinion, a closet full of small skeletons is even more shocking than a closet full of adult-sized skeletons.

Hey Krystal, the motherfucking Democrats are supporting said genocide. Can you kindly fuck off now?

[–] plinky@hexbear.net 35 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

i thought people dealt with it yesterday, but apparently fedcobin came out swinging for the guy on twitter sadness-abysmal

you have time to move to maine, collect signatures and participate in primary, my guys. and i don't know why it's even topic of discussion, blackwater merc, with nazi tattoos, like meow-tableflip

p.s. total ukraine cultural victory

p.p.s. mussolini would have jacobin interview in one year after rants on youtube channel

[–] john_brown@hexbear.net 32 points 4 days ago

Suddenly wondering what kind of fucking tattoos krystal and ryan have

[–] hollowmines@hexbear.net 27 points 4 days ago

my thing is just, even in the most generous interpretation of events you demonstrated horrible jugement and are unfit to be 3rd key at Subway let alone in government

[–] BarrelsBallot@lemmygrad.ml 27 points 4 days ago

The guy is just the epitome of left driven electoral failure, keep voting and see if something changes though

[–] irelephant@lemmy.dbzer0.com 27 points 4 days ago

I have a small skeleton in my closet (Nazism).

[–] radio_free_asgarthr@hexbear.net 27 points 4 days ago

We just keep getting more and more usage out of James Adomian's joke, as Gorka, about fascist tattoos.

"Surely, you wouldn't consider something as surface level and skin deep as a series of tattoos to represent a deep tie to an organization"

"Well... yeah"
