This guy went on tour in Iraq not once, not twice, but 3 times then one more in Afghanistan and regretted it all so much he went once more as a blackwater merc. He then, full of regret, boasted on reddit about making a makeshift mortar to bomb urban areas after it got forbidden to shell them because the civilian murder count got too high even for the US army. He regretted his blackwater merc tour so much he said he wears his blackwater cap just to troll people who remember their savage butchery and are offended by it. He regretted his tattoo and the company he kept so much he defended others getting SS bolts tattooed.
If only he had stated his regret before it became a political liability for him.
Oh and of course he gets endorsed by Bernie "I'll not call it genocide for two whole years" Sanders and Chuck "I'll make sure the left remains pro-pissrael" Schumer.
This guy is controlled opposition through and through and it would be so sad to see all you yanks fall for it again but the reality is you all don't just fall for it but desperately latch onto any excuse to keep voting dem. Please one more vote, this time we can vote fascism out I swear, this abu ghraib guard is one of the good ones!... It's pathetic. Get organized. Look into PSL or any org in your area and start doing something. Voting isn't going to fix shit and there will be no candidate that gets anything done until you start doing something about it.
Apologizing for a murderous imperialist.
TIL René Descartes was a ~~mercenary~~ security contractor.

The guys straight up CIA and a flagrant unapologetic war criminal. Democrats have no one better and now they're just outright supporting CIA candidates from Alissa Slotkin to Abigail Spanberger.

@infinitevalence
Bernie Sanders is a fucking Zionist scumbag and controlled opposition.
He's now the go-to hack for Democrats to pull some other scam like No More Weapons to Israel, while the plan is to integrate Israel into the Military Industrial Complex COMPLETELY. Just send them $$$ and let them "buy" the weapons.
I can't believe anyone still falls for this crap.
@mathemachristian
the tldr version answer to your question is that his foreign policy is the same as nixon's, reagan's, obama's, biden's, or trump's and his recommendations guarantee that isreal will continue murdering children, but with an improve mask of plausible deniability.
what's truly confusing about platner is that he's literally branded himself as a nazi; has multiple pictures of him w nazis; and speaks fondly of doing nazis things, but people still question whether or not he's a nazi.
I mean....
Susan Collins has been voting for imperialistic wars and rubber stamping war crimes. I look at the things Platner says and it seems clear that is is less blood thirsty than these elites.
i've seen some of those before, and they make it clear that this person is an ex-mercenary version of someone like kate abughazaleh: someone who insists on calling themselves a leftist but clearly isn't one. their liberal worldview betrays them—they have no idea how their own goals serve only to deepen this late-stage capitalist colonial misery that keeps breeding terrorism and inequality for all.
So when you read sections like this you assume he is lying? Because I read that and see dark humor and a person who has struggled with experience and choices in his life.
when i read that, i see some parallel version of myself if were a i was a mercenary. just like planter, i too am a liberal who prefers to think of himself as a leftist, but i have the benefit of being too queer to have ever been indoctrinated the way he clearly has.
my leftist education comes from two places: written retrospectives of the only successful leftist movements of the past two centuries, and the legally mandated confessions of the neoliberal oligarchy that shaped us. i'm still a neophyte to leftism and clearly so most of the time -- but even at my level, i can see where planter or abughazaleh (or even mamdani) fall woefully short of understanding leftism due to both of those educational sources making it clear what rightism is.
So he cant pass an arbitrary purity test?
hindsight born from practical reality.
Everyone always sets the bar just below their worst offense and then claims anyone under that must be a bad person for XYZ.
“Have you ever noticed that anybody driving slower than you is an idiot, and anyone going faster than you is a maniac?” ― George Carlin
So is Grahm an idiot, or a maniac? Or maybe your purity test is arbitrary and based on your own self valuation?
I would not have known it, but then I dont spend all day studying Nazi symbols. Could have as easily been me getting a flash tattoo off the wall.
Not everyone's as ignorant as you. Read up on the SS deaths head units at least https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SS-Totenkopfverb%C3%A4nde
I probably have and just dont remember all the details.
You still have not said anything about an alternative to Platner, or how you benefit from taking him down. Whats is all this effort for other than to help out Collins, Schumer, Trump, Bibi, or Putin?
It's in my first reply to you
Are you really so morally bankrupt that you can't conceive of people critising politicians because of their principles and not because they somehow benefit from having the opposition elected?
my offenses will always PALE in comparison to any mercenary and i don't know what what plantner is.
i only know that he disregards the lessons taught by the hindsight of the most successful leftists that history has to offer.
Who are those, and would they have a chance at winning and using power if they did in the United States?
history is full of leftists who won without selling out and abandoning your principles for electability isn’t building power -- it’s just renting a politician.

You mean he's running because he was hand-picked by a consultancy firm Fight Agency and his stated goal is to rebuild the US military.
And Graham Platner who also murdered children and said he loved doing it
I still haven't seen a non blurry photo of said skull which is annoying.
Because it was never a real issue. Stephen Miller says and acts like a Nazi, but no tattoos. Grahm acts like a person from Maine with a military background but had a Nazi adjacent tatoo.... I am going to support the one who is NOT acting like or saying things that Nazi's say.
It's literally the SS Totenkopf. It's literally the "are we the baddies" totenkopf https://youtu.be/ToKcmnrE5oY?t=153 You can literally see it in the meme
Disgusting.

-> Failure to conform to basic social norms, often in ways that violate the law
Alternative: vote third, write in, anything but vote for a literal Nazi.
