I'm going to spend no effort hating on someone much further left and much more popular than any other candidate where they are running. He is policy wise much better than the average american politician.

Why tf do leftists split hairs on random aligned politicians as opposed to hating the fascist republican party?

We don't do harm reduction voting here on Hexbear. This dude volunteered himself to kill people in Iraq after being a protester, he has a history of pretending to be leftist then abandoning it

Like Did people not learn anything from Fetterman.

we’re all talking about the guy with the totenkopf tattooed on his chest who bragged about firing grenades into civilian crowds in Iraq, yeah? if you think being a Nazi is a-ok, i think you should speak a lot less about what anyone on the ‘left’ does or ought to do.

Literally a Disco Elysium villain

Disco Elysium villains were based on Blackwater and coincidentally Platner served in Blackwater!

This would be the punchline of a youtube sketch in like 2011 about having an undiscerning friend who brings terrible people around, but instead it's the state of American electoral politics.

Splitting hairs over such quibbling differences as "disobeying orders specifically so he could kill people with a mortar in a crowded city" and "enjoying killing people" and "getting the logo of the infamous nazi organization that piled millions onto mass graves on his chest and wearing it for 16 years until people got mad at him."

Like bro if this guy is actually further left than your average American politician, that's not a case for supporting him. That's a case for burning America to the ground and salting the earth.

If you think we should hate the fascist republican party, why do you think we shouldn't hate the fascist democratic party?

"Why do leftists split hairs and refuse to support the fascist politicians as opposed to only hating the fascist republican party?"

[–] Swoosegoose@hexbear.net 13 points 4 days ago

Leftist aren't aligned with unrepentant war criminals

[–] purpleworm@hexbear.net 13 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

I'd hate to split hairs. Could you tell me more about what people are splitting hairs over with respect to this person so I know to avoid it? You aren't being very specific here.

[–] john_brown@hexbear.net 2 points 3 days ago

the tattoo artist probably had to split some hairs just to get that nazi totenkopf on him
