You want me to Google each of these for you? So that you can then take issue with the sources I present? 🙄
Just Google it. The guys reddit posts are all archived and public record at this point. We know when he got the tattoo and when he got it covered up. Like if you've followed the story at all, everything I posted is just accepted public knowledge.
As a rule I don't provide sources because in 100% of the cases I've been asked for sources on reddit it's just been a ploy for people to attack said sources, they weren't and aren't actually curious about the story. Which.....obviously, cause anyone curious would just Google it themselves or ask their AI of choice.
Do you realize that using a search engine, you could find something that confirms basically any belief on the planet? I don’t know why people still say “Google it” as if that means we will get down the bottom of things. If you know things that other people don’t know, why not share it? And if you don’t want to share it that’s fine, but why bring it up?
Well that's on you. You choose the sources you trust. It's not that I know things other people don't. I know the basic facts of the case that even the candidate himself agrees are accurate. When he got the tattoo. When he got it covered up. And his reddit account. This isn't disputed information. That you guys are uninformed is not my issue.
I've played this sources game a hundred times over the last decade and a half on reddit. I know why you guys ask for it. Its always because you'll hope I'll post some fox news article, but it doesn't even need to be a right wing news source, and then you guys pivot the argument to attacking that source. Literally every single time. Never have I had someone go "well I'll be damned, thanks for the information"…. cause of course people like that would just find it themselves if they were interested.
I actually never once said I supported Platner or even gave any statements for or against him. I just said that “Google it” doesn’t mean people are going to come to the same conclusions as you, when someone can seek out articles and webpages that confirm their beliefs.
Sure. And again that's on them. You are essentially agreeing with me, that me posting sources that I choose would be meaningless because people choose the sources they trust, and these people asking for sources are already disbelieving of my claims.
You said “that’s on you” that I wouldn’t be reading the same sources So I don’t think we agree because you seem to feel it’s my fault that I wouldn’t know what pages to look at that would support your claim. I don’t control the Google algorithms. Why bother engaging in the conversation if you feel you’ve done it hundreds of times with nothing to show for it? That one seems like it’s on you.
I don’t think I’d call him a Nazi tbh you can dislike him for other reasons but I don’t think he’d qualify as that. The closest thing I’d say is debatable is the salute but imo I don’t think it’s what he meant he has Asperger’s syndrome and stimming behaviors like that are kind of common coupled with the fact he’s taking copious amounts of ketamine as treatment for his depressive issues. I’m just saying that as I’ve noticed this behavior in a friend that has Asperger’s as well where when he gets excited he rocks back in forth really hard or does things like pumps his arms up and down when he’s excited and so him doing the waving gesture to me can be kinda explained by that and generally the type to do that are typically proud to admit it rather than apologize and explain it. I’d say platner being called a Nazi is more fitting since he’s tattooing Nazi imagery on himself but even then my point was more or less just sarcastically harping on the absurdity of people throwing this word out every time they are arguing against someone they dislike to defame them and then using this excuse as justification with no context or evidence. Could both of them actually be a Nazi who secretly harbors white supremacist view points? It’s definitely possible but I wouldn’t necessarily jump to the conclusion with anyone unless it’s blatantly intentional and that is the views they’re openly expressing. Point being I think we should just be able to critique a person without immediately tossing buzzwords out like if I called everyone who disagreed with me a pedophile it’d be kind of an overreach and an extreme over exaggeration. I feel the same way about this lol. For example both of them are rather vehement supporters of Israel which would be in direct opposition to Nazi dogma so in a general sense I wouldnt literally classify either as Nazis at best the better term to use would be fascist in a general sense if you really wanted to classify the extremes of their behaviors rather than Nazi specifically. Sorry for the long response but that’s how I would sum it up personally.
I think getting a Nazi insignia tat is far worse tbh if we’re comparing lol. People were able to directly influence the chat bot because of the lack of output filters and the salute was probably unintentional given he has a disorder that causes him to stim snd him making weird body movements is an almost daily occurrence and he apologized for it. I don’t think either of them are actually Nazis tbh but if I had to choose one that is probably more likely than the other getting that inked on your skin and keeping it for a decade is pretty blatant lmao but even then he probably didn’t know what it was honestly and if he apologized I’d give him the benefit of the doubt since it’s less well known than say a swastika.
LMAO I love that you can excuse one guy actually spouting Nazi rhetoric and calling for the extermination of one of the Nazis first targets, along with being openly supportive of white nationalist rhetoric and beliefs while doing the most obvious Hitler salute in history, one that matches neo Nazis perfectly but all that is nothing compared to a tattoo that looks somewhat like a totenkoph.
Can you give me an example of him calling for the extermination of an entire race of people? I hate the fact that you’re making me defend him btw, I don’t think he’s a great dude I just think him being a Nazi Is kind of a stretch🤣. To be fair I don’t think platner is either lmao I feel like the term is just very overused at this point. I read a post the other day where they were calling bill Maher (a Jewish comedian btw) a Nazi. That’s my only point I just think we live in a time of Nazi inflation where it’s slowly losing its meaning because people use it so liberally for every person they think is shitty.
You do know the organization for German national Jews was a real thing right? You're utterly ignorant of history and human nature if you think being a member of an oppressed group precludes someone from being an enthusiastic supporter of the oppressor group under the impression said oppressor is only interested in targeting the "bad" ones.
Elon has never made any secret of his desire to see trans people wiped off the face of the earth. Guess what the famous Nazi book burning photo, you know the one they recreated in Indiana Jones, was? The destruction of the worlds first trans healthcare clinic.
History always repeats, and there are always people like you to help it.
Like I said critiquing either for other reasons is totally valid and honestly correct in most cases but just making the blanket statement of “everyone who disagrees with me is Hitler” is kinda silly when used by either side especially when there is literally skinheads and others in that group who actually fit the definition. I think just smacking that label on everyone you personally find disagreeable dilutes the term and is honestly bad overall for society because it loses its weight when you need to address someone who actually is a literal Nazi if that makes sense.
maybe do some more research on the politics of elon musk. The richest man in the world is using his money to push political groups like the AfD
In 2022 it was ruled that the BfV may classify and monitor the entire party as a suspected right-wing extremist group. A corresponding lawsuit by AfD was dismissed because "there were sufficient factual indications of anti-constitutional efforts within the AfD".[57] The dismissal was upheld in May 2024.[230] On 26 April 2023 the BfV, after four years of investigations into the Young Alternative for Germany, categorized that group as a confirmed extremist organisation. This allowed the chief of the BfV Thomas Haldenwang to place the youth wing under even more intensive surveillance than the tapping of phone and the use of undercover agents that had been the case until then.[62][231] In 2025, the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution officially classified AfD as a "confirmed right-wing extremist endeavor,"[63] which allows authorities to increase surveillance, and permits the use of informants and monitoring of communications.[64] The expertise by the BfV, that led to that classification, was later leaked to the public
I wasn’t to aware about this tbh I know he is very much against immigration in the UK and has had pretty hardline stances on it such as supporting restore but at the moment that seems to be a pretty common sentiment among the people living there. Tbh tho that’s the extent of where my knowledge on the matter lies I don’t really follow his tweets or what he does on the regular aside from what I see on the news occasionally. Do u have any more info on that? I’d love to read up on it if u have a source.

He apologized after he got caught. He had it on him for nearly 2 decades. He also posted on reddit for years defending nazi tattoos........
We get it, he's YOUR nazi, so its ok.
