Black man. Cis, straight, he/him. Ally to everyone because if we don't hang together the man will damn sure hang us separate. Don't engage; just block. Would YOU like to kill Nazis with G.I. Robot?

Republican voters did this to us, and they did it deliberately, and you are nowhere CLOSE to angry enough about that fact.

Phew managed to make it another day without getting a nazi tattoo. It’s hard out here. Just nazi tattoos roaming the streets attaching themselves to people. Stay woke

running for president in '28, my entire campaign is just two posters, one picturing prominent members of the current administration beneath the banner headline "PRISON", and another of all the leading techbros beneath the banner headline 'WE WILL TAKE ALL THEIR MONEY'

I'll say one last thing about Platner and shut up. For me, the thing is that he says he got the skull in his 20s. Okay. We're all idiots in our 20s. But he's 40 now and never did anything about it until he got caught. He had 20 years to fix the mistake and didn't. That's bullshit.

A split screen of a woman and a man talking. The top is the woman (Tina Fey as Liz Lemon) saying “What a week, huh?”. The bottom is the man (Alec Baldwin as Jack Donaghy) replying “Lemon, it’s Wednesday.”

I have comics to write, but I have one more thing to say about Platner:

I think he's a liar.

I am a grown adult with a normal grasp of human nature and reality and I think he's lying when he says he JUST found out it's a fucking NAZI tattoo.

I think he's a liar.

"In the meantime, he was on Reddit defending other people getting SS tattoos" which let's be serious here, is a **pretty big tell** that he's lying.

He says he got it by accident 18 years ago while drunk with his buddies in Croatia. He says no one ever told him it was a Nazi tattoo until JUST NOW while he was running for office. In the meantime, he was on Reddit defending other people getting SS tattoos. 🤷

I honestly don't think centrists believe anything at all. Just as I don't want to see a "mainstream" presidential candidate who hounds homeless people and abandons trans people, I don't want a "progressive" Senator with a Nazi tattoo. The uprights aren't narrow here. This shouldn't be hard.

I really liked what he was saying. But if there's any way to recover from "hey man you have a fucking SS Nazi tattoo on your tiddy and thought it was OK to have one," he did not find that path, and it's not puritanical or exclusionary to say so, and its ridiculous to even have to explain this.

"Oh so there's no path to redemption?" Sure there is. Most paths to redemption don't run through the U.S. Senate, though. Go, live a good life. Farm oysters. Diminish and go into the East and be an always improving Graham Platner. Do not be a Senator. And remove that fucking tat.

When I was a teenager, the only time you heard about IRL nazis was if someone saw skinheads or confederates hanging around Morton's Gap, and you'd drive up and provoke 'em into a fight. This wasn't, like an everyday occurrence! Nazis knew not to poke their heads out or normal folks would clobber 'em

Andy Diggle @andydiggle.bsky.social · 1d

Ten years ago you didn't hear some new scandal about Nazis every fucking day. This is not normal, and it's not okay.

I ain't ever *really* fucked with Bernie Sanders, and I was right.

Eric Michael Garcia @ericmgarcia.bsky.social · 1d

Bernie about Platner,

“In all due respect, all right, what I'm worried about, 50,000 Americans may die unnecessarily? And you're worried about a tattoo?"

When I asked about his comments about sexual assault, he said "Have you served four tours of duty?" I said "I have not."

Bernie: "Ok"

Bernie isn't admitting he is wrong *now*.

Tweets from John Bresnahan, @bresreports:
An angry Bernie Sanders won’t drop his support for Graham Platner despite a Nazi tattoo on his chest

2/ Sanders said Platner “as a young man” went thru some really difficult experiences” in Iraq and Afghanistan.

3/ Sanders: “I personally think he is an excellent candidate and will support him, and I look forward to him becoming the next senator from Maine.”

4/ When pressed on Platner’s Nazi tattoo, Sanders lashed out at the “corrupt campaign finance system” adding “We don’t have enough candidates in this country that will take on the powers that be and fight for the working class.”
