We read Graham Platner’s whole Reddit archive. The vilification of the Maine candidate for Senate doesn’t square with what he actually wrote in his posts.
It’s not a smear campaign to say I don’t trust someone who enjoys nazi iconography. He says he enjoyed killing, had a Nazi death squad tattoo over his heart for years after he knew it was a nazi symbol, and he is a war criminal who took every chance he could to go kill more. Absolutely fuck this guy, I don’t need to see his posts or more context, and I’m sick of people pretending like there aren’t a thousand more trustworthy people that could run for that position. It’s like this whole thing was designed in a lab to make all of us lose our minds even more.
