Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Hopefully you aren’t a Maine voter because you’re falling for obvious misdirection and smear tactics. Anything to keep him from talking about healthcare for all or taxes on billionaires.
As an actual Maine voter, I’ll be happy to vote for him in the primary and hopefully the general.
I suggest you go watch when a reporter asked Bernie Sanders about the tattoo and do some reflection about where you get your media and what your priorities are.
Priorities (not ranked) 1. Policy position on unions and living wages, civil rights, all the basics 2. Pac and aipac money. 3. Anti Trump's policies. 3. Integrity based on history of behaviors and current behavior. Especially including sexual misconduct.
Things not a priority.
Keep your priorities straight.
My priorities are not electing more Nazis.
Then you should have no problem with Platner as he’s not a Nazi.
He just... permanently scars his flesh like one!
Nazi's use this tattoo, He uses this tattoo, Therefore he is a Nazi.
A plane is a thing that flies, A bird is a thing that flies, Therefore a bird is a plane.
I know it's a meme to call OP an idiot, but you're employing a fallacy that would get you laughed out of even a highschool classroom.

Got it. He just likes the aesthetics of the SS. Just like musk just likes to stretch his arm in a "roman salute". And trump just liked the cheese plates that epstein had everywhere he went.
And... you using high schoolers as your example of great thinkers is just so on the nose that I can't even think of a good joke. I mostly just feel bad for you.

Are you just scrolling fallacies on Wikipedia or did your network not get trained with more advanced arguments than simply making bad faith arguments tinged with sarcasm?
