Furthermore, US voters always like outsiders. Know why? Because capitalism sucks. Being qualified to run a capitalist institution the way effete liberals want is being qualified to oppress the population. Unfortunately, the system usually consumes the outsiders. Quixotic is the best descriptor.

Liberals are simply delusional. How many times do you have to get identity wrong before you come to grips with the fact that your post-structuralist concept of ideas is nonsense? Ideas do not exist separate from material reality. The working class is not static.

They're Dembots. By definition, they cannot know reality. They are there to prosecute the Dems' war on the US people. They have been stabbing themselves in the eyes, aghast that someone who doesn't practice their moral performance purity might win.

This president, with is Tuesday murder lists, also didn't care about the image of Christianity you reference.

Why do we live in such a childish, stupid country? A country that wastes its money on useless billion dollar aircraft carriers, when it could be spending those tax dollars to actually help its citizens like sane countries.

Maybe a little off, but Chris Hedges and Joe Sacco = reporter and graphic artist have published on the US decline and on Gaza together.

That is not the story. That is what liberals scared of economic populism are saying. Check out the interview with Platner that Ryan Grim and Krystal Ball did for a better understanding.

You are foolish. He didn't have a job. A buddy told him about a job his qualifications would get him. He signed up as a bodyguard for the ambassador. When he saw the state Afghanistan was still in years after he left, he quit in 6 months.

I don't believe he's a Nazi. He seems pretty good as a community servant. He seems pretty good concerning the rights of all the groups you mention. You guys just cannot stand a redemption story.

This isn't a useful moniker. Stop watering down the usefulness of the term "the capitalist class."

I have a fucking PhD in history and had no idea about the Totenkopf until this dustup. I think there are a lot of people in the US who say things spurred by the individualist sociopathy that dominates our culture without ideological conviction in the things they say - think 4-Chan culture.

Probably not because the swastika has unambiguous connotations in popular culture and would be a bigger transgression. I would still, however, not make a knee-jerk decision about him being forever corrupted. Libs want to essentialize ideas because it ensures that elites can control an in group.

Do you have any evidence that he is a Nazi beyond the tattoo? Is he a member of a biker gang? A prison gang? Does he read Der Stürmer? Does he contribute to the cause? Does he have a trove of writings pushing white supremacy? Has he harassed black people?

Then, they ensnare them with camraderie. This is an explicit policy of the military. People will fight to save their "brothers" sooner than themselves. It is a warping of basic human sociability, and Platner seems to have more than the average share of sociability.

jfever.bsky.social @jfever.bsky.social · 03/03/2026
Yes, that's right. It's hard to wrap one's head around how psychologically manipulative our military is, but that's how they get well-meaning people to become imperial stormtroopers. They don't need to kidnap them. They just need to convince them that signing up for money is valorous.

jfever.bsky.social @jfever.bsky.social · 03/03/2026
I can imagine someone having a Nazi tattoo and not considering themselves a Nazis. After all, Nazis used the word "Soldat" to refer to their soldiers. Should Germans stop using that word because of its Nazi meaning? Context matters, and there's no evidence he is a Nazi.

Not really. Both symbolize wanton destruction and disregard for human life. It's not like the Nazis have/had a corner on the murder market.

jfever.bsky.social @jfever.bsky.social · 03/03/2026
Nope. Soldiers signal their memberships in a group that kills people for money all the time by displaying transgressive symbols. It is quite common for many to be unaware of the full import of their selections.

The working class is defined by its lack of control over the means of production.

Same here, but I do have an interest in deflating lib propaganda.

jfever.bsky.social @jfever.bsky.social · 03/03/2026
That shit rings hollow with me - not because it wouldn't concern me if it were true, but because I've seen way too many libs who are too trigger-happy with their identity politics in the cause of partisanship. They suffer from the grand ol' US affliction of tribalism.

You'd bet it on Mills??!!

jfever.bsky.social @jfever.bsky.social · 03/03/2026
He's addressed this. Class markers don't mean in Maine what they do on the Upper East Side, where the Dem hoi polloi live. Also, with our class inequality, you need to expand your definition of the working class.

Ah, so now the retreat to "You shouldn't like him because he doesn't know how to play the game we've fixed to get rid of class messages like his."

jfever.bsky.social @jfever.bsky.social · 03/03/2026
It is a reasonable position in a world where my government has perpetrated multiple genocides and ethnic cleansings, has oppressed workers more than any other industrial nation, has knowingly caused ecocide. If you can't see how Platner is better than Mills, you need a reality check.

jfever.bsky.social @jfever.bsky.social · 03/03/2026
I'd prefer someone with more experience. That someone with his message probably would have decided to stay away from the Dem party -- the graveyard of good politics. But, I understand why Charlie Brown wants to believe Lucy won't pull the football.

The rot caused by empire is as USian as the apple pie baked with apples grown on stolen land.

Words and symbols are cheap. They are a small part of reality. Since post-structuralism, you've been acting like they are the only reality. That suits an effete Dem perspective that likes to pretend we can eat slogans.

jfever.bsky.social @jfever.bsky.social · 03/03/2026
Your problem is that you've swung the other way on Nazism. It used to be absolute evil -- so special that it could never be replicated. Then, USians started calling everyone Nazis, cheapening the term. I do not think this word means what you think it means.

What about crusader crosses? Or in-your-face tatts that shriek "I'm not afraid of death"? Or, offensive tatts of any kind that say "I value my comrades more than propriety"?

The average person doesn't become a paid killer. The average paid killer doesn't have the mental wherewithal to make such a rapid turnaround from the psychological manipulation our military inflicts.

Not my sacred cow. I think the most trenchant criticism leveled against him is that he has the temerity to think that he can go from 0 to Senate in 6 seconds. He hasn't built a record of solidarity and authenticity, but then, that sort of arrogance is another white guy trait.

jfever.bsky.social @jfever.bsky.social · 03/03/2026
"You guys" = Dems/libs. You are so quick to label. The label then comes freighted with condemnation (or praise) instead of honest examination. You treat politics as a game of gotcha because the stakes are so low for you -- an airy exercise on theorizing.

jfever.bsky.social @jfever.bsky.social · 03/03/2026
No, he has USian friends, a US tattoo, worked for a US-owned mercenary firm and goes on US podcasts. You guys are part of the sickness with your individualism and support for partisan politics.

Exactly why the Dems are such a drag on progress. They couldn't connect with an average person if their lives depended on it.

You guys want a savior. Because you lack a theory of community, you've been allowing the right to walk all over us. It's your fecklessness and disregard for others that has put Trump in office.

jfever.bsky.social @jfever.bsky.social · 03/03/2026
Yes, because, ironically, for you, identity is binary. One cannot possibly prioritize class over race or gender and support equality for all.

Yes, which he got in a Croatia rife with neo-Nazis.

He doesn't have multiple Nazi controversies. You have interpreted them into existence in your fevered brain.

jfever.bsky.social @jfever.bsky.social · 03/03/2026
You don't seem to understand that your weird fixation on identity leads other people to want to stick it in your face. People who murder other people for a living (soldiers) want to transgress polite boundaries. It's part of their sickness. You now are denying them the ability to heal.

jfever.bsky.social @jfever.bsky.social · 03/03/2026
It's not one dumb moment. It's a change, and you dumbass libs are going to continue to screw up the country with this attitude. You gave us Trump.
