My theory is that the East Wing story is going to prove out that politics has become almost exclusively about images, and the simpler the image the more consequential.

"We really need to get justifications from perpetrators. And I don't think we have that in the Kirk assassination or the Minnesota assassination, and so I would argue there's a world in which neither of those people should be coded as terrorists." @oyousef.bsky.social www.npr.org/2025/10/22/n...

Amid claims that left-wing terrorism is rising, what do the data say?

The assassination of right-wing activist Charlie Kirk has reanimated claims that the left is increasingly responsible for terrorist activity in the U.S. But the data paints a more complicated picture.

I am begging the mainstream media to talk less about the East Wing & more about the loss of SNAP funding for the next few days.

The East Wing is gone. We can’t change that.

We *can* help people prepare for the loss of SNAP.

We can urge folks to donate to food banks.

We can give them warning.

So everyone claiming that he had no idea what the tattoo was and had no idea that it was bad where just straight up lying and acting in bad faith for the past few days helping mainstream Nazi iconography and downplaying it purposefully.

Good to know.

Aw dude.

Graham Platner knew his tattoo of a Nazi symbol was a problem weeks ago, former staffer says

The campaign denied that, calling it “a lie from a disgruntled former employee.”

the pace of change in public morals over the past 30 years on race and gender issues has made it hard for a lot of people to keep up. failing to keep up, they feel alienated by the quickly evolving norms and taboos.

Elliot @1t2ls.bsky.social · 11h

psychologically i still think that a huge driver for the mainstream revolt against “wokeness” is the belief that progressives cannot forgive, and that consequently everyone is at risk of being dragged through the dirt for their sins.

this is a very salient question about the timeline around Graham Platner's Nazi tattoo

soonergrunt @soonergrunt.bsky.social · 2d

And the answer is that he did not get it done while he was in the Marines. You can't hide a tattoo like that when you live in a barracks. And a Totenkopf (vs a Jolly Roger) would be an Other Than Honorable discharge AT A MINIMUM.
It's been against DoD regs for as long as I can remember.
