Opponents went all in on smearing Graham Platner as a Nazi based on a bad tattoo choice. It didn’t work. Maine voters decided they’d rather have universal health care and an end to reckless wars than a polished politician with an unblemished past.
Nazi aligned also meaning that he went to a different country and literally tortured, murdered people different from him, with a giant Nazi tattoo on him that anyone past 2001 would recognize as Nazi insignia. You can’t lie to me about this guy. Military ppl are the fucking worst they all think they’re so cool. Fucking gross murderers. They’ll Burn in the hell they claim to believe in
In that most Maine voters don’t seek to overthrow the US Empire and merely reform it from within, they are siding with a genocidal settler-colonial empire. I would have worded it differently, but you said teagrll’s comment was “totally wrong,” implying the totality of the comment is wrong.
Really, majority are “Nazi-aligned”? What planet are you living on?
Do a lemmy search for him on either hexbear or lemmygrad, if you want to see his history, and current stances. He’s a proud war criminal.
He went to war against the people of Afghanistan and Iraq multiple times, and iirc served proudly at one of the US torture camps in Iraq.
One of his platforms is also we need to build the navy up (ie more money to the defense industry instead of people)
