No one just happens to end up with a giant totenkopf over thier heart. It was insane seeing "leftist" libs run cover for this guy like him getting elected is going to be what builds their dream of Nordic social imperialism lol

This made me laugh. Yeesh.

Edit

I checked. Apparently they are unironic about Platner and rush to defend him.

Stubborn electoralist

Hitler may be a Nazi, but he's running on the German Progressive Party ticket, that's an important distinction. maybe-later-honey vote

It's such a weird account.

Recently they've reposted stuff critical of Schumer and Mark Warner. But if you keep scrolling just a bit more they start punching left plus there's their support of the Waffen-SS Nazi. I had to edit the following so it's not Twitter-like (with a quote post) but Reddit-like as in a simple comment and their reply.

watching the dems somehow be less popular nationally than the GOP or Trump and having abysmal approval among registered dems and doing the principal skinner “am i out of touch? no it’s my own voting base who is wrong”

‪this is why I keep banging on about this, not because I secretly love graham platner. Mills is the canary in the coal mine for the gerontocracy

https://bsky.app/profile/merovingians.bsky.social/post/3mfzrotxgwc2t

It's as if they are in an empty room and yelling as hard as they can at themself. "I am not a Nazi! But we gotta support the Nazi! It's gonna work! I know it will! First of all - the gerontocracy..."

They must understand that the change they seem to sincerely want can only come from the left. But they hate the left. I think on some fundamental level they know that their "stubborn electoralism" makes zero sense especially to any normie. In fact - it would seem like crazy talk to anybody not very online.

But what can they do? They put themselves into an trap where voting for the less-worse candidate even though he's a Waffen-SS Nazi is the only thing that can be done. There's no other alternative. It's the Waffen-SS Nazi or bust.

unsurprising for brace to platform someone like platner

[–] CliffordBigRedDog@hexbear.net 8 points 1 month ago

Brace is really hurting without Liz 😔

A Bluesky comment

What an unlucky series of coincidences.

In late January, however, Platner sat for a lengthy online interview with Nate Cornacchia, a retired Green Beret who has also promoted antisemitic conspiracy theories. Near the end of their hour-long conversation, Platner, a fellow military veteran, called himself “a longtime fan” of Cornacchia’s YouTube channel, “Valhalla VFT,” and said it was “an absolute pleasure being” on the show.

He and Maine democrats [redacted]. I'm sure he's going to stay in the race after making up a fucking ridiculous lie and they'll believe him.

Hey, you get what you pay for!

[–] InevitableSwing@hexbear.net 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I wish there was a podcast where the hosts went to different states and asked normie dems questions after the interviewees watched ~3 minute explainer slash reality check vid. This imaginary podcast could start in Maine. And that explainer vid would be a super-quickie summary of the Waffen-SS and the tattoo.

I really wonder what they'd say after they watched the vid. But maybe the results would be lame. They'd decide podcast and the vid were a (leftist) gotcha and they'd just say "Look, no candidate is perfect and we gotta stop Trump."

[–] deforestgump@hexbear.net 6 points 1 month ago

I would say that the party would never let a podcast like that sniff their candidate. Then again, they let George Santos win without doing any oppo-research.

Platner was on Pod Save America today. From the Reddit sub - the top comment...

Platner is the better candidate on policy AND electability. He’s polling at near majorities in both the primary and general.

I was not expecting so many on that post to be against platner/calling out all the red flags

[–] LeninWeave@hexbear.net 6 points 1 month ago

Yeah, there's a lot of red flags. And they all have this white circle in the middle with a Buddhist symbol for some reason.

Oh yeah, he's running

[–] Digit@lemmy.wtf 3 points 1 month ago

Yeah, but,

antisemitic

can we stop that^ misnomer mislead

and especially cease using the psyop ad-hominem phrase designed to dissuade scrutiny:

conspiracy theorist

because that^^'s too much Orwellian conflationary fly-in-the-ointment poisoned-well dog-whistling noise in the signal.
