If it was just a "drunken decision", why has he not gone and gotten it either removed or covered up once he supposedly learned it was a Nazi symbol?



That's my question. Seems like "i got blackout drunk and did something stupid" would have been remedied with a black shader needle the second it had healed enough to do so.

That or some serious laser work...

This country's fascination with "Nazis" is astounding. I use quotes because I love to read about WWII history having had two grandfather's that fought in each theater. I think I've read every Patton biography published. This isn't that though. This is an uneducated generation just making up boogey men trying to use the latest buzzword. Wtf is wrong with people these days glorifying it or throwing the term around and making it meaningless?

I agree in the main. It's irritating how much it is abused. Overwhelming majority of people tossing that phrase around have no idea what a Nazi is or what they actually stood for. Like you say, it's the dumbed down boogeyman of the 21st century. The fact we have to censure EVERYTHING pertaining to it only makes it 10x worse.

That being said, if the OP image is correct and that is what he has, yeah. That's a legit **** up and worthy of calling out. Second only really to an actual swastika. Matched by maybe only SS runic bolts.

I would say nothing to see, does not look like SS Death's Head.

There is absolutely no mistaking the Totenkopf. I mean, zero. No other style of skull and crossbones comes remotely close.

Come on, man.

I looked quick, it was black the Nazi one is usually white, it looked off at first glance and that is why I missed it at first.

Perhaps some posters here give too much knowledge credit to a stupid drink 19 year old. Remember when one of the royal princes dressed up like a Nazi for Halloween?

I still see no social media posts that are anti-Semitic like Cane claims. Racist, yes. Mysoginist, yes. Anti-Semitic?

Per McDonald, his own (former) campaign director, he is a military history enthusiast and knows exactly what the symbol represents.

A stupid tattoo can be fixed, especially at the direction of an individual with political ambitions and a knowledge of the death's head and its role in the SS.

The fact Platner failed to do so speaks volumes, apparently rendering him worthy of higher office in the opinion of Democrat Party Senators.

He has had PLENTY of time to get it fixed. He is a military history enthusiast. So am I. So we both know that symbol was largely reserved for SS Death Head's Units. Literally the guys tasked with guarding and running the concentration camps. I doubt he was honoring Goring's personal Panzer Division which also used it to some extent (Fun fact! The Luftwaffe had PANZER DIVISIONS! Just learned that a few months ago myself.)

Dumb drunk 19 year old excuse ran out of play loooooong ago.

As I mentioned above, the Nazi card gets extremely overplayed. But it is deserved here. No question. No, this dude is not a Nazi, but he is honoring one of the absolute worst parts of their ideology. Seems like an odd hill to die on.

That is not the bar democrats have set. We have to hold them to their own "standards."

the perfect leftist to warm Bernie Sander's black heart!!

"Last week, though, CNN released a report revealing Platner's Reddit history under the username "P-Hustle."

In 2021, he referred to himself as "a communist," and said that all cops are *******s.

Other news outlets soon found additional posts:

Platner suggested in 2018 that semiautomatic rifles are necessary to "fight fascism," and in various posts from 2013, made insensitive remarks about sexual assault and asked, "Why don't black people tip?"

Then, on Monday, to get ahead of opposition research, Platner's campaign released a video showing that he had a tattoo on his chest resembling the "Totenkopf" skull associated with the Nazis."

I haven't researched this guy. But I'm definitely leaning towards this guy needs to GTFO.

This social media pundit, who is quite liberal, makes some good points.

"yes we defend literal Nazis who call the country fascist who went to a private $74,000 a year prep school and make misogynist and anti-gay jokes"

stage of the election.

How do you ""mistakenly" get that tat? I really doubt a tattoo parlor is going to have that in the scrapbook. You'd have to bring a copy of it.

He got it in Croatia. In World War II the Croatians set up a Nazi puppet state that set up their own concentration camps but instead of killing Jews they were used to kill Orthodox Christian Serbs. An estimated 350,000 Serbs were murdered in the camps. Even today their is a portion of Croatian society that revers that time period.
