    I think you’re a liar if you say you’d have recognized the SS totenkopf before this attack broke.

    And I think you’re an idiot if you believe this is a secret Nazi plot that involves intentionally getting and keeping a Nazi tattoo for 20 years and only remembering to cover it up when you run for public office.

    So, which are you?

      Really? That’s your argument? That there’s no way that a person would ever recognize an infamous SS symbol, so they must be lying? Lol wow.

      I don’t know what else to tell you beside, yes I fucking did.

      Pretty much anyone who has ever, in their life, studied WW2 and the Nazis beyond a surface level knows the symbol. I grew up watching WW2 documentaries on History Channel, so I’m sure that didn’t hurt.

      And even if you haven’t, it’s literally the symbol in the “are we the baddies?” sketch.

      Regarding the tattoo, my guess is that he never planned on having the electorate see the tattoo. But why the fuck do I need to analyze this guy’s decision about not covering up his Nazi tattoo?

      For me, “he has a Nazi tattoo” is enough for me to not support him for public office. It’s very simple.

      As I’ve said before, I’m not in Maine, but I would vote for him in the general if I was, and hope he’s not a fucking Nazi. Because in our shit system, it’s still a better choice than any Republican.

      But I guess fuck me for wanting the bar to be a little higher than, “just vote for the murderer with the Nazi tattoo and hope for the best.”

      It’s also pretty disheartening (and unfortunately, not all that surprising) to see the "I refuse to vote for anyone who supports genocide"crowd bend over backwards to avoid being critical of this fucking guy. The reddit edgelord who murdered Iraqis civilians.

        Lol. So liar.

        We all know the reason you’re so hot on this ridiculous line of attack is just because you don’t like his politics. You weren’t driven off by your imagined mastery of Nazi symbology, you weren’t ever going to support him in the first place.
