Shitlibs only response to factually true statements is to try to act like such a smug reddit loser that everyone gives up out of second hand embarrassment
simple search - Graham Platner I wanted to join the army because I wanted adventure, and to kill people. Then you can look up his service history, he has posted about it in numerous places over the years. It literally takes seconds to find the reddit archives of it, since, as soon as that account was tied to him, he deleted all those comments, but they had been archived. Take like 30 seconds to search it.
If you ever wanted proof that the attacks against Graham Platner are dishonest and motivated by a desire to manipulate, misdirect and smear, here it is.
Man, you sure are downplaying the whole “I wanted to kill people” part. It’s almost like you’re trying to manipulate and misdirect the conversation
They are also lying about him never being a mercenary. In the very wikipedia article he cites it says he worked for
Constellis, which inherited blackwater’s contracted when they dissolved, then reformed, basically working for blackwater under a different name.
They also claim they are watching his campaign closely, yet their only refutation cited is a wikipedia article, which actually backs my claims. These people are so weird defending this guy.
EDIT - Oh it seems this conversation was too much and it has been removed from the original post. Cowards.
"In a January 2, 2020, on the Reddit thread, “Why Did You Enlist In The Marines?” Platner posted, “I wanted to have an adventure and kill some people.”
He worked for fucking Constellis, which inherited Blackwater’s contracts when they dissolved and reformed. He spent six month in Afghanistan working for the PRIVATE MILITARY COMPANY, in other words, a mercenary. This information is in the wikipedia article YOU linked.
"After his military service, he worked as a State Department security contractor in Afghanistan "
“In 2018, Platner returned to Kabul, Afghanistan, for about six months as a State Department security contractor with Constellis, where he provided diplomatic security to the US Ambassador to Afghanistan.”
It’s right there, he became a fucking MERC.
You said you watched his campaign closely, yet you only post a Wikipedia page to refute my claims of Platner working for a PMC, and in that same article it straight says that is what he did.
You also claimed he never said the bit of about joining the military to kill people, yet he did. It took me literal seconds to find all this information, and I, in no way, consider myself to be watching his campaign closely.
If you want to get into this he said/she said crap, like the posted article, he has a number of ex’s that claim he talked about, and behaved, in disturbing ways, with at least one saying how she was told his unit specifically got the totenkopf tattoo because they drew parallels from what they were doing to military groups like the SS. You can look this one up yourself. I have proven what I say has backing, you haven’t.
