Just some bluesky libs arguing that the blackwater merc with a totemkopf tattoo on his chest for 20 years isn't a nazi and should be supported.

It's a band tattoo, he didn't know what it was, well he's still better than the other options, and on and on.

Obvious personal excuses to give him a pass because they need to support him because... they literally don't understand what the alternative could be. He's the democrat after all. Guarantee they have nazi opinions too.

@zeph @biscuit_tornado Working for Blackwater should be disqualifying on its own.
@michaelgemar @zeph @biscuit_tornado seriously. If he worked for blackwater the odds are decent that he's a war criminal. That's not even an exaggeration

@Tigerlily @michaelgemar @zeph @biscuit_tornado the crazy thing being his nazi tat PREDATES EVEN BLACKWATER

That thing is 18 (!!!!) FUCKING YEARS OLD an adult in it's own, and he even admitted to have always known what was "behind that tattoo" AND STILL DIDN'T COVERED IT UP

@Tigerlily @michaelgemar @zeph @biscuit_tornado "[...] if I'd have had it hidden I'd be the worst person hiding someone by literally showing this tattoo proudly to everyone in my life [...] even the military officials checked it out when I applied for service [...]"

@blossomlilija @Tigerlily @michaelgemar @biscuit_tornado that might be the worst cope excuse I've ever heard. The real nazis are the people that cover or remove their nazi tattoos. Like, did he not think it might come up while running for office.
@zeph @Tigerlily @michaelgemar @biscuit_tornado I fear he doesn't think, but it seems moreso that he's suffering from Fettermanism..
@zeph @Tigerlily @michaelgemar @biscuit_tornado he claimed he got that tat back when he was fresh with the marines in Croatia (which explains partially the "why" given you're being actually jailed and getting it forcibly removed in most European countries, as well as AFAIK a lot of non-nazi tattoo artists in the US mostly refuse doing these kind of tattoos)
@blossomlilija @Tigerlily @michaelgemar @biscuit_tornado a "drunken mistake" too, which is bullshit considering that's not a one session tattoo
@zeph @blossomlilija @Tigerlily @michaelgemar @biscuit_tornado i disagree, actually - that could easily be done in one session. It looks like in the broad range of 30-180 min, which is absolutely one session.

@epinymph @blossomlilija @Tigerlily @michaelgemar @biscuit_tornado me right now inspecting a guys nazi tattoo to discern how much care and detail went into it...

I will accept your assessment because I only have baseless assumptions. I guess it is just one miserable splotch.

@zeph @blossomlilija @Tigerlily @michaelgemar @biscuit_tornado it truly just looks like a blob, which means it was not well-designed to show detail after healing/over time! So at least we don’t have to feel conflicted about it being a technically well done tattoo. It simply is not!
@epinymph @zeph @blossomlilija @michaelgemar @biscuit_tornado yeah, looks like it's just a bunch of solid black
