One of the things I like to bring up a lot is how a local sushi place had a food inspection done because the krab rangoons were labeled as crab rangoons. Someone filed a complaint and it caused a health inspection which figured out they hadn't had a food license in two years.
Right, this man who is on record as receiving 100% military disability which is roughly 48k a year and isn't considered taxable income so he actually makes the 48k on the 48k A normal person would have to make 57k a year to do that.

This isn't the person we make this claim on.
"It didn't turn up in an internet search"

Sure Jan. Whatever you say.
Even then, look at the framing.

"I was told this resembles a nazi symbol".

No you fucking moron, it's literally a nazi symbol. It doesn't resemble one. It is an actual 1:1 copy.

He still just doesn't fucking get it.
Totally agree and don't think that post is a defense.

The thing was he was the one who put out the video, ironically. I do believe it comes out eventually in some way, shape or form but this was one of the biggest self owns I've seen a candidate do.
Here's the thing.

He got grace.

The reddit comments, he had to defend. The racist comments about how black people don't tip, he had to come out and defend.

People gave him grace.

Sometimes you run out of it.

You definitely run out when you have a totenkopf on your fucking chest.
He's only been a candidate and in the national spotlight for two months.

Honestly this is a pretty quick turnaround.

Why is this a debate? Why is this an analysis? Why are we discussing his motivations or the reasoning behind why he has it or why he kept it? (These are all rhetorical questions.)

Nazi tattoo = you’re done.

It’s literally that simple. There’s no nuance or further conversation needed.
That's the part that disqualifies him.

He let the controversy dictate his response. He could have scheduled to get it removed and told a story about how symbology is important and we all have to make sure we're careful.

Instead, he just went "My friends know I'm not a nazi".

Fuck him.
Even in the best case scenario of "He truly, absolutely and honestly didn't know what it meant when he got it"

In the 17 years since, up to and including before he decided to do the interview where he KNEW what it was in the interview and STILL doubled down that it wasn't that?
Maybe we could try not firing multiple studios at once instead
NO.

HE HAS A FUCKING LITERAL NAZI LOGO ON HIS FUCKING CHEST.

Not A Pete Hegseth "Well, this symbol ALSO gets used in neo-nazi circles" type logo.

A LITERAL NAZI SYMBOL.

So when you released the video and went "My friends know I'm not a nazi" when you've said you're friends with Trump voters?
It shouldn't be hard for anyone who is an educated person in 2025 to look at the logo and look at the totenkopf and go OH SHIT THATS A 1:1 FUCKING MATCH.

When I say wild in my circles it's because the prevailing thought is "Well, Susan Collins" or "Let's see how this plays out"
Then hes confronted with the fact that he has a literal SS logo on his chest and it's just "I'm not a Nazi" and "I'm not hiding anything".

Graham, that's the fucking problem. We're living in an era where Nazis DONT have to hide. Even if you were actually ignorant to the symbology(which I doubt)
The Graham Platner stuff is wild in circles.

See a lot of people going "Maybe we need to give him a chance" and its like he was given chances. He had his reddit comments, which he explained and was thoughtful on. He had some racist shit, and even that was somewhat thoughtful.
Eh, it's just people who want that fed money.

Doesn't matter where they're from or who they are. Some people need that check.
She was the one who supposedly helped Mariah May make contact with WWE
THE ONES FOR INDEPENDENT CONTRACTORS? WHO BARELY GET FUCKING BENEFITS?

Fuck off, WWE. It's wild because even in the Vince McMahon owned WWE we wouldn't have seen this shit. If you got fired it'd just be ok fuck you pal figure it out. I fucking HATE talking positively about Vince but fuck
This is why the Biden era non-compete rules in the US were so fucking important. Yes, this type of non-compete is very specific and won't affect any industry that produces goods. That said the repeal of the FTC rules they set forward?
This one that Andrade is getting fucked with is INSANE. We fired you FOR CAUSE(which if you really dig into it is tenuous at best?), and then you can't work for a fucking YEAR in NOT ONLY YOUR FIELD, but also MMA, Boxing, or any combat sport?????

WHAT THE FUCK?
So I've argued both versions of this both ways.

The non-compete that WWE does really is fine because the fact is they're still paying you. For main roster guys we're talking 350k minimum, so you get paid to sit on your ass and essentially make 100k. That's pretty good.
We can talk about what Israel was doing prior to October 7th 2023 but it is a factual statement to go that because of that act Israel 1000% escalated things and has basically turned Gaza/Palestine into a pile of rubble.

Which is the specific what Mamdani said.
He didn't even do that. He said on October 7th, they committed a war crime because today is October 7th.

He doesn't address anything prior to that. That is a narrative you're filling in the blanks for.

It appropriate to call out both sides for shitty things.
It's hard to do that when the white house has actively kicked certain orgs out of the press pool. We can talk about how legacy media is largely toothless but we'd have to address the fact of who is even allowed in the room first.
HIs commitment to disappear and go elsewhere was on display when he told the fans he'd show up at Wrestlemania with Travis Scott and didn't. Then when he said he didn't do that and fans showed him receipts he did it again.
