The skepticism around Platner isn't just the libs or the DNC. Leftests I respect are skeptical of him too.

It's hard not to notice that the people most willing to laugh off a Nazi tattoo are the same kind of people who might not have experience with fascist violence and oppression.

I think it's weird that so many people who call themselves antifascist are not only blind to his faults but would ridicule anyone not identically credulous.
