And yet, I’ve never noticed it. I thought it was only the bird symbol on the hat. I’ve never looked into their uniforms with any meaningful inspection. I had to google the hat because I doubted you were right, but you are. So I just learned something else.
Like I implied earlier, people can exist for decades without knowing something. Just because it is common to you, doesn’t mean it is common to everyone.
I don’t think we ever reviewed symbols of nazi Germany in any of my history classes in High School or University. I’m also not a history buff (had enough of war growing up, don’t want to read about more of them in my spare time) so I don’t spend my free time on history unless it’s directly relevant to a conversation (like this is now).
Maybe knowing nazi symbols is a greater part of basic history where you live? It seems more in depth on that specific subject than I experienced. We covered the instigations, effects, and resolutions more than details like that.
Still waiting on the evidence of white nationalism and violent rhetoric in his platform. It’s clear the establishment is scared of him and is trying to use the common concerns of leftists to attack him, but it’s just kind of silly to call him a secret cryptofascist white supremacist when there are openly unapologetic ones already in government.
Frankly, nothing on his platform comes close to what is already happening in plain sight. Platner has stated he’s anti-billionaire and that’s clear enough a reason why all of this muck is getting raked. If you’re going to do their work for them, I hope you’re at least getting paid for it.
Like I said before, symbols don’t make the Nazi. What makes someone a Nazi is their beliefs in authoritarianism, white supremacy, violence as a solution and the persecution of ethnic and LGBT minorities. Without any evidence of that, this is all hot air.
dude literally has a nazi tattoo…
Which people are still defending!
Fuck it’s one of the emblems of the SS, 2nd to their lightning bolts, and people are excusing it even in this thread.
this one really stumps me. libs, man.
I really can’t decide what’s worse. Those defending the tattoo or those saying they had no idea what the symbol was.
Not everyone walks around with an encyclopedia of knowledge on hate symbols. I didn’t learn about the totenkopf until this issue came up.
It’s literally the skull on the nazis hats. And the skull from are we the baddies? We have a skull on our hats.

True but this is basic history stuff.

the evidence is tattooed right on his damn chest. and his proud work as a jackboot of fascism.
cmon man are you guys really gonna be finessed by another nazi?
So he’s talked about gassing people in private chats? Has he said he loves Hitler?
Is there evidence of him using race or ethnicity as a bogeyman “other” to persecute and exile people?
Has he advocated for violence or extreme “solutions” to perceived problems in the country?
Frankly, nothing on his platform comes close to what is already happening in plain sight. Platner has stated he’s anti-billionaire and that’s clear enough a reason why all of this muck is getting raked. If you’re going to do their work for them, I hope you’re at least getting paid for it.
so now we are lesser eviling the more charismatic nazis?
you guys have your overton window way out there in the us. i keep wondering when democrats will notice what is happening here…
Apparently we’re at the we’re all too dumb to know a nazi symbol was a nazi symbol mark.

So, his military career.
please listen to yourself man. stop believing and justifying nazis.
