Feel this is a good accompanying piece for all the folk insisting on caping for a Blackwater merc wth a nazi tattoo because he said something they liked.

Wait, is Sanders rocking a swastika? Does Mamdani actually have “I heart mussolini” tattoed on his scrotum?!?! Oh shit, does AOC really actually have that tattoo from fucking Gothika or whatever stupid thing came to mind when I made that joke yesterday?
Holy shit!
Oh. Wait. You mean they don’t actually have symbols of hate and genocide tattooed on their flesh? And they aren’t being attacked for having symbols of hate and genocide tatooed on them?
Wow. It is almost like… not tattooing hate symbols on your body protects you from being accused of having hate symbols tattooed on your body.
I’m not going to get into why many of these symbols actually were bad even before the nazis got ahold of it (similar to how phrases like “deus vult” were also historically shitty and were coopted by white supremacists for a reason) because it doesn’t matter.
platner didn’t get this tattoo in the 1800s. He got it in the early 2000s.
But hey. If he were ACTUALLY a military historian who ACTUALLY cared about this kind of stuff, he could have said something… possibly around the time he was defending it and calling it a “punisher skull” 5 years ago. And while I would more than side eye the white boy who insists that his nazi memorabilia is only because he loves history, so be it.
He didn’t. He denied, denied, denied and outright lied to The American Public.
You have a hard on for this guy. He was a Marine infantryman. They are not the deepest of thinkers. If I got condemned for all the stupid shit I did when I was on active duty then I would have no friends. We all make mistakes and mature. You have a nice day.
Was it maturing when he joined Blackwater? What about when he defended his nazi tattoo 5 years back?
Believe me, I am all for giving people room to grow. He hasn’t done that. He shot a bunch of brown people for uncle sam, joined Blackwater, shot a bunch of brown people for money, and then took over an oyster farm where he himself acknowledges he is dependent on his disability checks. And, during that time, found a chance to defend the nazi tattoo he had on his chest to randos on the internet.
Then, when he was caught, 20 years after getting it, 5 years after defending it, he lied about not knowing what it was.
And, during that time, he seems to have never done much meaningful activist or charity work and has no political career whatsoever.
Also: Personally, I don’t think “only ate crayons, didn’t shove them up his nose” is a good qualifier for the Senate. I at LEAST want to know that my senators will just sign their names in crayon rather than consume them.
Whatever you say chubbs. You have a nice day.
