Graham Plaᛏᛏner, skull enthusiast
(lemmy.ml)
me and my buddies getting skull tattoos #JustMarineThings
Also lets not forget his defense of SS rune tattoos
The rune enthusiasts that discussion is about
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.

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.
