politics @lemmy.world•What Graham Platner Said When a Trans Mainer Asked: 'Will You Stand Up for Me?'
61·2 months agoI think that’s a question we should be asking about any candidate, not just the ones with nazi tattoos. I also think it’s fair to say candidates with nazi tattoos probably have a higher preponderance of nazi beliefs. Unfortunately without being able to see the future we can’t know for sure how someone will act.

politics @lemmy.world•What Graham Platner Said When a Trans Mainer Asked: 'Will You Stand Up for Me?'
54·2 months agoYes but you didn’t have it tattoo’d over your heart for 18 years… you tend to recognize things you’re familiar with.
But by all means, lets please have the first senator to call Gaza a genocide have a Nazi tattoo, that won’t cause any problems.
I’m not trying to say the other candidates are good, but we still have like 7 months to find someone who doesn’t have any recently covered nazi tattoos.
Let the downvotes flow I guess.

politics @lemmy.world•What Graham Platner Said When a Trans Mainer Asked: 'Will You Stand Up for Me?'
1118·2 months agoHe only covered it up a few days ago, after the story broke. It would absolutely be different if he had old nazi tattoos that had been covered up a decade ago, even five years ago, but he waited until he got called out. His former political director said Platner knew what the tattoo was.
Plus it’s the subject of one of the most famous comedy sketches on the internet. The guy has been using reddit since 2009, there is no way he didn’t see the “are we the baddies” meme.
Even if we buy his story, it feels disqualifying for someone who wants to be in the senate to not recognize the second most common nazi symbol in the world.

News@lemmy.world•Trump Advisers Have Discussed a Job for Adams if He Quits Mayor’s Race
4·4 months agoI didn’t think I had to spell it out this simply but here we go…
A) Of course they get some stuff done, most of it is even good. However it’s not the stuff their constituents really want or the stuff that would be the most beneficial for them. At a certain point it just starts to feels like controlled opposition.
B) They don’t do a damn thing to publicize the stuff they actually do get done. My Dad is the libbiest of the NPR listening, newspaper reading, college educated, WASP libs to ever liberal, and I had to explain to him all the stuff Joe Biden accomplished. He is significantly more informed than the average voter and even he forgot most of what Biden did because those things were covered for maybe a day and completely overshadowed by the constant despair inducing antics of the republicans.
C) Their complete lack of ability to counter the republicans who abandoned any pretense of working in good faith during Obamas first term. We’ve lost gay marriage and abortion, now they’re working on getting rid of womens right to vote. Not to mention the fact they’ve created their own secret police. I’m sure Chuck Schumer’s next strongly worded letter will make them reconsider their positions and back down.
Also, I understand that the problems they face extend from the fact that the Dem voter base has actual expectations other than just performative cruelty and pageantry like republicans voters. This asymmetry has been a problem for left leaning groups since the dawn of politics. One group needs to have thoughtful and effective policies and be able to argue their case convincingly while the other side just has to post racist memes.
Using the lack of a majority as an excuse for not doing anything useful doesn’t work when you’re the ones responsible for achieving that majority. Obama was a rare example of a single politician who was able to get that majority, and it was squandered because the Dems acted like a dog that caught it’s own tail. They didn’t expect to have to make good on any of their promises and when push came to shove they let republicans water down and delay those promises in the name of bipartisanship that they should have known wouldn’t be reciprocated.
They should have taken the likes of Joe Manchin and strung him up by his heels until he cried and fell in line. But they won’t, because they are weak cowards who don’t want to rock the boat or actually change anything. It was easier to just manufacture conflicts they felt could justify their inaction. Unfortunately it didn’t work and instead they came off as disingenuous and lazy. People got disillusioned and now they’re just the party of “not republicans” instead of having any actual convictions or standing on any real positions.
People don’t have faith in the DNC because it has proven itself to be unreliable at best and malicious at worst. Please stop calling people illiterate for being upset with the Dem party, people like you are the real reason so many have lost faith in democracy as a whole, not just democratic party.

News@lemmy.world•Trump Advisers Have Discussed a Job for Adams if He Quits Mayor’s Race
61·4 months agoI’d argue that was mostly just inertia from Obama. His politics are debatable but it’s a fact that he is one of the most talented orators of a generation. He was able to inspire a huge midterm turnout because he gave people real hope that the Dems could change things. Unfortunately neither he nor any of the other Dems were willing or able to take on the republicans. By his second term the party had lost a lot of the momentum it built up during his first campaign. It had nothing to do with leadership, it was just one guy who was able to inspire hope but no ability to bring any of it to fruition.

10·4 months agoI don’t think you can extrapolate that from this. Recognizing economic hardship and understanding nuanced sexual dynamics in society are very different.
It would be like saying a child understands the military industrial complex and systematic oppression just because they liked GI Joe action figures or want to be in the army. Lots of kids just think helicopters and explosions are cool. Then their opinions change as they get older and begin to understand the actual toll on human life that a war takes.
