Listen. People change, I get it. We've had ex-chuds join us here, ex-libs, blah blah blah. The difference here is we will admit that what we used to believe was bad and wrong and try to make up for our past actions

We all made fun of BlueMAGA but I think we're now into the Blue Nazi era of liberals

Why won't he admit that it's a Nazi tattoo and it's bad then?

He keeps fuxking denying

What fucking party actually, he's literally a democrat.

Who believes that the democratic party is anywhere remotely near being a working class party?

This might be my softest, most liberal opinion –and i have plenty of soft opinions–, but I don't think there's an inherent problem with allowing people who have done bad stuff to participate in a movement. At some point we have to believe in the ability for people to rehabilitate and overcome past choices.

My problem is with allowing these people to be close to positions of representativity and leadership, anywhere near where they can exert power, and that includes being anywhere close to vulnerable people. Want to do the paperwork/cook for the party soup kitchen? knock yourself out. Party leadership, senate, comms, or something public-facing? Nah, can't trust you. If you're serious about your regret for participating in the meat grinder, go pay reparations, improve yourself.

Mamdani says we need free buses:

He is a communist that must be stopped at all costs

Mamdani says free Palestine:

We must stand up against antisemitism

Blackwater merc with totenkompf tattoo over his heart:

Well, it's complicated you see...

Liberals once again proving that any and all amount of foreign brown blood spilled can always be justified and excused in their eyes. Ghoulish fucks.

I'm a member of the PSL, a working class party, and we don't have a Nazi problem

SMH at all these leftists that won't accept that the average member of the working class is an ex-mercenary with the nazi Totenkopf tattooed on their chest

If a real working class party includes these people the world will burn in hellfire because the social democrats (moderate wing of fascism) will do what they do best and neuter it such that western capital can go ahead and genocide as many people as necessary, commit total ecocide, and burn the world with nuclear fire.

P sure most veterans don't become mercenaries

Yikes…

Like I know TMR is lib as fuck, but they were palatable. Michael Brooks was such a huge loss tho…

How long before they pull a TYT and do some union busting and spouting off TERF talking points?

what needing to simultaneously believe that nazis are bad and nazi tattoos are good to feel ok about supporting Ukraine does to a mf

Why won't anyone think of the poor veterans who had to take mercenary work killing brown people after they were done killing brown people for the government

Do we want an authentic working-class party or not?

Yes, and we absolutely need patriots like Platner who are willing to fight for their country, we could call it national socialists to reflect this

Apathetic people suddenly develop empathy, when they themselves start getting called out, odd isn't it? Empathy for the fellow wrongdoer, not the people they hurt.

If they go to war and feel guilty about destroying lives, shouldn't they want to help the people they've hurt? To help ease the pain as much as they can.

Forever thankful that Jeremy Scahill's book on Blackwater was the beginning of the end of my liberalism. You shouldn't even want this motherfucker in your community let alone some sort of position of power

This really lends credence to the "theory" that democrats intentionally run shit ass candidates on purpose to lose. They got a double whammy with this guy being the "progressive left" and claming to be a communist. More ammo for the "extremes are just bad, we should only run liberals to the right of Reagan."

How fucking low does the bar need to be here? Not having a prominently placed Nazi chest tattoo should be an absurdly low bar to clear. Not in Amerikkka I suppose.

All my friends with incomplete maze tattoos just simply prove that the cost of living is getting out of hand.

If we're doing an authentic working class party, I want to see line cooks running for office. Not whatever this is.

I hate all US active and former military goons. Their sad and depressing fates are better then they deserve. Burn in hell.

She's hardly active at all on Bluesky. Even the libs would shit on her for her opinions on Totenkopf chest tattoo guy. How often does Vigeland have shit takes?

Why do we need this particular ~~nazi~~ "working class guy" to act as a representative? There is no shortage of working class people who either aren't nazis or at least don't fuck up so bad that it is hard to prove they are not nazis.

Just literally point the media spotlight on another person.

how many vets took mercenary work...

Hardly any. Most vets don't even have the skills an organization like Blackwater wants.

Guess what topic is completely missing from their subreddit

All the libs are tripping over each other to exclaim they didn't know what totenkopf is and with the american education system I can believe that, but if you claim to be an avowed antifascist you are lying about one of those claims
