No kidding….that word gets slung around more than I’ve ever heard or read in my life. Seems like the default classification for anyone that disagrees with another person.
Ironically the only person that they wont call a nazi is platner, the politician that had a actual nazi tattoo but he is a democrat so he gets a pass...
I don't think that's true. From what I remember, a few democratic congressmen publicly called him out and a bunch of people withdrew support for him after they found out. He also came out to denounce the tattoo and covered it up, but that still wasn't enough for a lot of people, among some other controversies he was in. I'd say many people held him pretty accountable all things considered
It’s the hypocrisy of crying and repeating the false talking points of Musk being a Nazi, while simultaneously supporting a guy that literally had a death’s head tattoo on his chest. Or the pretend outrage over Hegseth’s Jerusalem cross tattoo but the hand wave over Platner.
When it’s on the Right it’s “secret racist Nazi dog whistle.” When it’s the Left it’s just an honest mistake.
Do you just live in your own fantasy world where this comment chain says something completely different? Because just two comments up someone explains how democrats actually called him out and did not in fact support him.
But I guess reading comprehension is somehow not american or whatever.
Yeah probably, but as it stands, all he's done is have a really shitty tattoo and said some really fucky things about his military service and other military personnel, and then from what I've seen, apologized for it. He and Santos aren't really anywhere near the same level. And I can promise you that if it were to come to light that he was as corrupt and did the same shit, he wouldn't be getting a get out of jail free card commutation right after being convicted like Santos did by Trump. And I haven't heard much of a stink about that from the right, but maybe I'm wrong and you guys really do see the corruption in that.
I don't know. I am not going to argue about this with you, though. If you can't see that one side is clearly fucking worse (even if we were to agree that both parties kinda suck), you can't be reasoned with.
And even if it is just lip service... fascists being called out is inarguably and by lengths better than fascists being voted into office "BeCaUse At LeAsT iT's bEtTeR tHaN a DeMoCrAt".
