Yeah it’s currently 6. There were 8 before Mills got into the race.

It’s honestly amazing how you reply to every single response with “hey, if you would just buy the shitty product I’m selling, I’m sure you’ll see things differently!”
Nobody has to listen to you suck off Platner to understand what you’re doing here. You are not subtle, or original.

At literally no point has it JUST been Mills and Platner.

Yep. I couldn’t remember if there were 6 or 9 candidates in the race against Platner, so I looked it up before replying. There are currently 6 people in the primary race (including Platner & Mills) but 3 more were in it and withdrew when Mills announced.

The way Tim Fullerton has reacted to the way so many people have dragged his shitty podcast for its Nazi apologia is really emblematic of the whole situation with Graham Platner, as a microcosm of how mediocre white men just feel wildly entitled to force themselves on the rest of society.

There are currently SIX PEOPLE running in the primary for the Maine seat, plus three who have withdrawn.
How can you even pretend that you have the smallest shred of integrity or intellectual curiosity if you can’t even be bothered do the most basic background research before sucking off a Nazi?

Are you actually illiterate, or are you just being deliberately obtuse because you know that you’re out here attaching your name to the defense of a fucking Nazi and you are scrambling for any way to deflect?

This is the part about Platner that pisses me off the most.
Even if I bought all of his bullshit about the posts, the tattoo, etc. and believed that he really is a Changed Man yadda yadda yadda…
…ok, fine: Run for city council or county commissioner or something first, not for the U.S. Senate.

No reaching out to communities that were affected by the rhetoric and actions. Just jump on a podcast with a bro and get a softball interview while getting your ass kissed 💋

Instead, he and/or his advisors decided to go the exasperated, "Fine, if it's SUCH a big deal I'll cover it up, SATISFIED NOW?" route, like a teenager who blows off putting dishes in the dishwasher & finally does so after being nagged while rolling their eyes & making a big show of doing so.

If he had STARTED his campaign playing the "I used to be a complete dick, then I changed, here's my journey from asshole to decent person" narrative, including "I even got a fucking Nazi tattoo because I was a naive moron in my youth" I'd be a LOT more sympathetic.
But he didn't.

5. Finally: I believe him when he says that he's a different person now.
HOWEVER, that doesn't mean that the person he's changed into is much better, seeing how the person he is NOW is a wannabe national-level politician trying to gaslight people AFTER being busted for being an asshole in his past.

4. I think that he made cutesy references to it being "my Totenkopf" around friends/family years ago, as several people who knew him have claimed, but honestly thought it was No Big Whup.
He STILL doesn't seem to grasp how Big of a Whup it is even now. He's STILL treating it like a mere annoyance.

He might've even thought he, who has "hated Nazis since he was 12" was getting the tattoo "ironically" like Matthew Modine wearing both a peace symbol button & "Born to Kill" on his helmet in Full Metal Jacket.

3. I personally think that he knew damned well what it was when he got it but didn't give a shit at the time because at that time he was a shitposting edgelord type who thought it was "cool" & "macho" & "alpha male" & "edgy" to get a Nazi tattoo at the time.

So, here's my own take:
1. No, I don't think he's a "secret Nazi" or even an open one.
2. He absolutely *is* either a blatant liar & gaslighter (if he knew) or a blithering idiot (if he didn't).
At a BARE minimum, he's the least intellectually curious "military history" buff in the world.

They then turn to a brief discussion about outreach to the Maine Jewish community, Israel/Gaza & the distinction between being Jewish and the Netanyahu government, which was...fine, I suppose.
But you know what I never once heard?

Next, a different host (Kris Goldsmith) does call him out on that by saying Platner "knew damned well what NSC-131, Blood Tribe, etc" are and that he finds it difficult to believe that Platner somehow didn't know the tattoo's significance.
Platner keeps saying that he "never made the connection."
