Okay, so.... I did the thing. I started a GoFundMe for Jen and I. I feel very upset with myself for it getting this far. I know it's a lot, but the smallest donation (or even share) helps a ton.

Thank you for the help. I mean it.

I'd only go even further and say it's not even something to resort to at all. Fuck that 🤷‍♀️.... the thought of ever resorting to discourage anyone's artists spirit is..... some evil shit, no matter the intent.
I have no fucking clue what I just watched..... but it messed with my head and I'm successfully freaked the fuck out.

Even if Platner is growing, changing, and evolving, we don't have to give him the space to do that *at the federal level*

I don’t want politicians to be my pal or “be like me”, I want them to plan on what they’ll do better for the place we’re in than what the current boss is doing.

I checked, it is real, it is thousands of words long, and the only mention of trans people is two times when they mention that some cis women take dosage levels comparable to what trans men do

There's sections about dysphoria cis women may feel from side effects of testosterone. I am LOSING MY MIND
when trans people take HRT to feel normal: “look at these depraved sex freaks performing their sick fetish in public, we should bully them out of existence”

when cis ppl take HRT so they can fuck real good:

I lived with my dad when I was very young and he didn’t apply for food stamps or free school lunches, though we qualified.

So, I went hungry. It was awful. I begged neighbors for saltine crackers. I can say it was the worst time of my life.

Children shouldn’t go hungry. Restore SNAP benefits.

Voters forget a lot of stuff, but I think they're gonna remember the time the family went hungry over Thanksgiving for a long, long time.

I mean Platner's "regrettable" tattoo was the insignia of the SS division that guarded the death camps so I don't know that he does oppose genocide.

Liberals when candidates defend trans people: "We can't do this, it's too unpopular."

Liberals when candidates have a nazi ss tattoo: "it's ok, not all candidates are perfect."

Do y'all hear yourselves?!
Purity culture is a real, genuine problem on the left. That is true. It is also true that being uncomfortable with someone who has a NAZI TATTOO running for political office... is just having base level sense and reason..... and anyone who says any criticism of that is "purity culture"?

If being uncomfortable with a candidate because they have a Nazi tattoo is "purity testing," then "purity testing" has jumped the shark as a useful criticism imo.
Putting a Democrat with a Nazi tattoo in the Senate normalizes Naziism in our federal politics for a long ass time.

All these recent stories about secret Nazi group chats? Anytime that happens going forward will be met with "But Platner."

It's not a purity test. Think through the consequences.

If being against a guy with a Nazi tattoo makes me a purist I guess I'm an anti-Nazi purist. If you think that makes me an anti-Nazi single issue voter, you're wrong, but also it's a pretty good single issue.

There is more than a year. Go get another real progressive who doesn't have a Nazi tattoo.

So there's clear proof here that he knew it was a Nazi symbol back in 2020, yet he's acting like he's just found out its super fashy. Completely indefensible and everyone who is going up to bat for this man needs a fucking word with themselves.

Also, Blackwater? Fucking hell...
Graham Platner has deleted reddit posts defending people for getting SS (bolts) nazi tattoos.

He was also a Blackwater mercenary as recently as 2018.

there is no reason someone running for public office should have a nazi logo tattooed on their body, regardless of their past.
Bernie has been gradually losing my respect over time, but this..... Jesus, man. This is the sign that you need to retire. Mid-80s and not caring if Nazis slip into your ranks..... it's time, man.
Bernie about Platner,

“In all due respect, all right, what I'm worried about, 50,000 Americans may die unnecessarily? And you're worried about a tattoo?"

When I asked about his comments about sexual assault, he said "Have you served four tours of duty?" I said "I have not."

Bernie: "Ok"

I wasn’t going to say anything because I’ve been burned by this topic before but certain segments of the left need to stop fetishizing white working class men

"He's just a big galute, how could he know it was a Nazi symbol?" MOTHERFUCKER THAT SHIT WAS IN INDIANA JONES
Given his stupidity..... I'm inclined to say yes?

But also, he's a conman which implies he has to know otherwise. But also he's not all there anymore so 🤷‍♀️

I'm just sayin.... I don't want anyone who's in office, representing our country.... to be having fucking Nazi tattoos.

I do believe that is some bottom tier, base level standards we should agree on.
Human rights and democracy are not and can never be set-in-stone guarantees. And they can be stripped away when they are not properly maintained. Because power and greed will always play a role in human behavior. We like to believe it's not innate to the human condition, but it is.
There's obviously more to do THAN THIS..... but if you can't see how this is a very vital and important step to both inspire and bring the people together, as well as scare the shit out of career politicians?..... I really don't know how to help ya.
- that every normie and their grandmother can see and be persuaded to take part in. To successfully push back against this administration? You need numbers and you need to make fools out of them harder than they can make fools out of themselves. This is what organizing looks like.
