like i will accept growth can happen & edgelord shit can be grown out of but if that is the case u have to own it & apologise & show u have done the work & then it's up to ppl if they believe or don't but i've seen zero contrition & just ppl saying 'oh u never did anything wrong' etc

added a label because of the content but yeah

cw rape apologia

screencap of an nbcnews article comments made first reported by wapo, text below

'in other posts from 2013 reviewed by nbc news, platner also minimised challenges faced by military members in reporting sexual assault & encouraged people not to use substances in order to avoid being raped

"in todays current climate, when every whisper of a misplaced hand brings down a feature length film, anyone who actually thinks the military is purposefully covering up rape to save the career of some god damn [captain], is clearly both an idiot & junior enough in rank or life experience to think it matters", platner posted at the time

in the coment section of another post titled "shorts that prevent u from being raped" platner urged people to "take some responsibility for themselves" & "not get so fucked up they wind up having sex with someone they dont mean to"

"you make a choice to consume enough of a substance to lose your self control. so if you dont want to be in a comprising situation, act like an adult for fucks sake" platner wrote. "rape is a real thing. if youre so worried about it to buy kevlar underwear youd think you might not get blacked out fucked up around people you arent comfortable with"'

to be clear i think his numerous tours for war crimes inc was disqualifying & he should never have been boosted. likewise his rape apologia should have been disqualifying before it came to this. the tattoo is also disqualifying without both of those other things

u really do not need to do this & i honestly have no idea why ur committed to it

arnie @arnie.bsky.social · 1d

this is what his fmr campaign manager (who quit after his reddit posts surfaced) said

arnie @arnie.bsky.social · 2d

even more wild when u add this context from his fmr campaign manager who resigned after his reddit posts surfaced

facebook post from genevieve mcdonald, text below

'ive run out of self restraint, worse than when the guys on the train to boston were fan boying over red eats

the dc consultant class has fucked up our us senate race again & u all need to stop snipping at each other

this is seriously the dumbest timeline

graham has an antisemitic tattoo on his chest. hes not an idiot, hes a military history buff. maybe he didnt know it when he got it, but he got it years ago & he should have had it covered up because he knows damn well what it means

his campaign released it themselves to some podcast bros, along with a video of him shirtless & drunk at a wedding to try to get ahead of it

the vault is open for the gop to fucking crush any dreams we had in the general & literally everyone i know is fighting with each other on social media

we cannot be this painfully stupid'

arnie @arnie.bsky.social · 2d

'well someone needs to have massive power so it should be us [because that makes me better off]'

i mean, theres only one person here who sounds anywhere close to donald trump in their view of the usa

arnie @arnie.bsky.social · 2d

arnie @arnie.bsky.social · 2d

i mean i personally would have gone 'hey guys do u think we should really be running some ex marine who after his tours went & joined blackrock to do even more tours for imperialism inc or do u think maybe this guy might not be the best person the left can put forward' but hey thats just me
