Why can't you believe the guy had a nazi tattoo until last week and volunteered to spent years murdering undesirables completely changed his mind in a very convenient, opportunitic moment.
If you think about it, the real Holocaust is not believing white supremacists
Oh wow can you show me those posts where he regrets killing subhuman brown people? Surely Jacobin isn't making it all up.
There are screenshots in the article of more recent posts he made.
Plus we got all the shit he's said about how he feels about his past here: https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/maine-democratic-senate-candidate-regrets-deleted-internet-posts/story?id=126636744
And: https://x.com/grahamformaine/status/1979312580490596829
In that Twitter video he says he is incredibly proud of who he has become by massacring all those innocent Iraqi civilians.
Not hearing any regret
You gotta be trolling. I'm not responding to you at this point, but posting for anyone who reads that comment without watching the video.
In the video he appologizes multiple times, condemns both wars he fought in, and says he regrets what he said and did in the past. He says his journey made him who he is today, and he's proud of who he is today.
P.S. In the Jacobin article is a screenshot of a post where he explicity condemns mistreatment/violence against innocents and civilians by the military.
You can respond if you like. I'm disengaging and will not reply.
Edit: I'm not defending a dem. I don't like the liberals. I don't necessarily believe Platner is a good guy, but this comment is misinformation and purity politics at its worst.
What timestamp in the video? Mine is 3:50
Plus we got all the shit he’s said about how he feels about his past here:
That article is about him distancing himself from overly left wing things he said, not sure time as a fascist storm trooper
Hey, you ever read about the annihilation - sorry, rehabilitation of Americans by the Euro settlers? The ones they called Indian because their complexion is similar to folk from a certain other, already colonised land? This screams 'you're uncivilised and savages if you don't look, talk and quack like us'
What can you expect
From filthy little heathens?
Their whole disgusting race is like a curse
Their skin's a hellish red
They're only good when dead
They're vermin as I said, and worse
They're savages, savages
Barely even human
Savages, savages
Drive them from our shore
They're not like you and me
Which means they must be evil
We must sound the drums of war
They're savages, savages
Dirty shrieking devils
Now we sound the drums of war
The "progressive wing" of the controlled opposition branch of the single-party US state, trying to push a literal former abu ghraib (the US torture camp in Iraq) prison guard as a candidate.
All these muslim-murderers should be in prison for their crimes.

Based on everything I have seen, he has remorse, as well as disgust for US foreign policy and his role in it.
Can you quote these sentences
I linked the video to provide more information for people to make up their own minds.

Look, if you want a monkey to dance for you, go to the zoo.
Okay so you are lying and I wasted my time. Thanks for confirming.
Pictured: opinion of the least racist Democrat
When did he say this?
oh hey thats on the ghislaine maxwell subreddit
Geneva_Convenience is part of an Establishment Democrat smear campaign against the first real progressive my state has seen. I was banned for “trolling” in my attempts to highlight and correct his deliberate disinformation. Take everything you read by this user with a heavy grain of salt, and in relation to this issue in particular, DM me at JoeBigelow@lemmy.ca for a link to Grahams entire reddit archive, not just this tankie’s cherry picked items chosen deliberately to cast Graham in a bad light.
If the guy who loved murdering brown people so much that he went on 3 tours in USA murdermachine and then signed on to one of the worst mercenary setup and had big totenkopf tattooed is counting as "the first real progressive" in your state then where do you live? Literal fucking hell?
JoeBigelow back from being banned for "trolling" because I refuse to let deliberate disinformation being pushed by the Democratic Party Establishment from continuing to be pushed by Geneva_Convenience.
It's really something that .ml is so in bed with establishment Democrats that my attempt to fight an obvious smear campaign resulted in a ban for "trolling".
And if you look through the modlog, check the number of accounts banned for simple being "unwelcome". This is an echo chamber, and anybody calling it anything else is ignorant, willfully so or otherwise.
Stay out of my States politics please and thank you.
Troll attempt is shit
Nazis belong in pit
Have you lived their way of life? How can one have an opinion so firm for something they have never experienced? Bring a slave to capitalism is t all it's cracked up to be you know. They talk a good talk but rarely do they follow through on those promises.
