It’s not crazy to think the guy who wore a nazi tatoo for 20 years and still praising nazis to this day is a nazi, seems like a very VERY obvious deduction. It’s the people who think he has reformed that are hilarious, like the guy is literally doing nazi shit and people still go “but he said he’s cool now guys!”. It’s like believing Trump.

It wasn’t in his young days. He supports nazis today.

Repeating it over and over doesn’t make it true.

And do you think Bernie, Elizabeth Warren and AOC are nazis? They have after all endorsed and are campaigning for him.

Does anyone know what the tweet he retweeted said? Or anything about the content of the podcast he did with the white supremacist guy?

What do you call going on a nazi podcast and telling the nazi you admire him if not supporting nazis? The fact that its true makes it true, you putting your fingers in your ears and going LALALALALALA doesn’t make it not true.

Not an answer to what I asked. Do you consider Bernie, Warren and AOC to be Nazis as well or just Nazi collaborators?

The most important things a senator does in 2026 are vote on the reconciliation bill with all of whichever president’s legislative priorities, and vote on Supreme Court nominees. Collins 90% of the time backs the gop on those and the 10% she doesn’t is when she has a free vote. Planter won’t do that.

If they support a nazi they are nazi supporters, it is extremely disappointing but there is no defending this.

Do you consider someone who goes on nazi podcasts and proclaims his admiration for nazis not a nazi?

[Here’s an article](https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/progressive-senate-candidate-graham-platner-214206824.html) about the tweet and it shows it as well.

Nothing is clear-cut unfortunately. I’m not in Maine so I don’t have to worry about this. But this is legitimately a difficult one for me. My always vote to minimize damage, always vote lesser-of-evil coldly pragmatic, practical self would vote for Platner. ‘Better the devil you know, than the one you don’t’ probably doesn’t apply here. Unless Platner is truly a Trojan Horse, which seems unlikely, he is probably a better bet than Collins. Raw numbers alone means something as long as Platner continues to caucus with the Democrats.

But the moral me would have a hard time not abstaining. I don’t really give a shit about the drunken tattoo taken in isolation. It does mean he was a fucking idiot when he was young - drunken tattoos always mean that. And his choice of tattoo even if he didn’t know what it specifically was, means he was a macho bro with shit taste. Which is something I also don’t much respect.

But the other stuff is an added layer of stink. Associate with assholes and I’ll consider you an asshole. It just a matter of whether this rises to the level of it overcoming my pragmatism. As I sit here I don’t know if I have an answer to that.

I’m saying they support a nazi, do you? Do you have any actual points or just appeal to authority? The guy is a nazi, his supporters are nazi supporters, its about as clear cut as anything can be.

I would never support a Nazi. From what I’ve read he isn’t a Nazi no matter how much you continue to go on about it.

The only thing that is clear cut here is that you refuse to allow people the opportunity to acknowledge they were wrong in the past and made very poor decisions. Kinda like MAGA.

Which nazi podcasts he went on and what he said on them that was “praising nazis”

I don’t understand why we are having a conversation when you don’t know any of the basic facts in discussion. Platner was in Nate Cornacchias podcast, the man is a well known antisemite. He called himself and i quote “a long time fan of his youtube channel”. If you want to claim the guy who wore a nazi tattoo for 20 years and apparently is an avid watcher and fan of antisemite content is somehow not a nazi because Bernie and AOC told you so you are no better than MAGA.

So just sticking your fingers in your ears and going LALALALALALALA, got it. The proof is OVERWHELMING, I don’t understand if you are truly ok with this or simply deluding yourself, but “not a nazi” is not an option.
