We read Graham Platner’s whole Reddit archive. The vilification of the Maine candidate for Senate doesn’t square with what he actually wrote in his posts.

      Yes, the prevalence of Nazi imagery by Ukrainian paramilitary organisations is pretty awkward

        Extra fun when in item linked to prove the nazi symbol has other meanings.

        Is also extremely sad how people are now trying to argue it’s the word people have issues with not you know, the very very specific symbols used by the SS that just happened to be on candidates body that also usa military was fine ignoring

          Liberals are working hard to rehabilitate Nazis.
