    It’s completely rational when people such as yourself attempt to deny it’s a Nazi tattoo.

    Your rationale is irrelevant, the only excuse that’s valid is “Platner didn’t know”, but then surrounding himself with Blackwater fascists doesn’t help that case.

    If all your buddies have Nazi tattoos, I’m sure that seems normalized.

    The point is, no, it’s not normal to sport a Nazi tattoo and nobody should be normalizing or excusing it.

      But that doesn’t answer my question of how this relates to the material conditions Mainers face and how it relates to any of Platners policies.

      How will sexts early in his marriage change the fact that nowhere is affordable to live for any working class person?

      How would a tattoo change his position on the affordability of groceries?

      If the “squeaky clean” Establishment was such a better choice, why have their actions lead us to this point?

      You can have the moral high ground. Pat yourself on the back for standing up to theoretical secret Nazis. I actually want to be able to take care of my family and halt my tax dollars from going to actual real nazis to kill children in Gaza.

      Platners the democratic nominee, support him or support Collins.

        It has nothing to do with any of that, it has everything to do with your attempt to deny it’s a Nazi symbol and then distract from your denying it’s a Nazi symbol.

          Because it is a crudely drawn skull and crossbones gotten by a drunk Marine 20 years ago.

          You’ve wormed out every question that asks the relevance to his policy positions. Which is kind of more important than what his tattoo is supposed to be.

            It’s a perfect rendition of a totenkopf skull which is a Nazi symbol. Why you continue to deny this despite photographic evidence is beyond me.

            Again, the correct response is “he didn’t know it was a Nazi symbol”, which is fair, and just calls into question his sensibility in personal body art in the same way that anyone would question getting a tattoo of words in another language that you can’t read.
