Dude, I give not a single fuck what the DNC or RNC are saying about this guy. And what do you mean about me believing some kind of “narrative”? What have i said that isnt factual? Just because you can easily look past a nazi tattoo and war-criminaI past doesn’t mean they don’t exist. Also I think it is painfully ironic, that you can call me gullible for putting more stock in a candidate’s past actions, than his current words.
Lol! You think you’re “putting stock in his past actions”, when all you’re really doing is repeating the establishment narrative about them. It’s all oppo research being weaponized against yet another progressive candidate, that has an actual shot at unseating a dug-in conservative.
But, good job on swallowing the propaganda without even checking the sources first…or even bothering to listen to what he says about any of it. Seriously, you should be on Susan Collins’ payroll, with all the help you’re giving her campaign. Maybe you could sell merch for her, too?
If you’re listening to what someone else is saying about what someone says, instead of just listening to what they are actually saying…then you are listening to a “narrative”. That intentional misrepresentation of the truth is called “propaganda”.
Do you understand what those words mean?
Because if you actually listen to what he’s saying, instead of what other people are saying about him, then you probably wouldn’t fall for their propaganda.
What have I said, that isn’t factual? Is it hearsay that he has a Nazi tattoo, or that he worked at Abu ghraib and for Blackwater? Those are just facts, aren’t they? I have listened to what he is saying, and his politics sounds good. Excuse me if I take his words with a grain of salt, given his past actions. No “narrative” needed for me to be wary of a guy with a past like that.
Lol! The “What have I said that isn’t factually true?”, is probably the most “misinformation” response to being called out for spreading misinformation, there is.
Are you actually suggesting that anyone with a skull and crossbones tattoo, is automatically a Nazi? Even if that person has extremely non-Nazi political views?
You say you’ve listened to what he’s been saying, and can’t find anything wrong with it…but, you’re still skeptical because the establishment keeps calling him a Nazi…but can’t understand why I might call you out for falling for their propaganda?
This is such a weird take, man. You should probably give it some thought.
Come on. If I see a “skull and crossbones”, I think “pirate”. If I see a totenkopf (or a swastika), I think “Nazi”. I guess that’s a “narrative” but it’s not one specific to Mr. Platner, and not something I need “the establishment” to tell me.
The “narrative” is that he knew what it was when he got it…because he’s a Nazi. The implication that he’s some kind of “secret racist”, who’s only pretending to hold progressive views. That’s the “narrative” the establishment wants you to believe.
Is that not the same narrative you keep talking about? Maybe I misunderstood your position, then? Or are you just playing dumb, now?
If I see someone with a Nazi tattoo, I assume they are a Nazi. Crazy, I know. You on the other hand, are going with the narrative that he didn’t know what it was. You could be right! I’m skeptical.

I don’t think you understand what “narrative” is. Or “propaganda”.
