Platner, Platner Platner, Platner

93. I don't listen to Cenk so can't speak on that bias but for what it's worth the Bangor Daily News had an article

a while ago with links to his numerous Reddit posts. Summary of them is that the posts that mentioned fascism were anti-fascist . Also, he said a number of flippant and/or dumb male comments but mostly stuff about military, guns, Maine. The link below will let you see them all, I didn't read them all but they are searchable. The quote is part of the article. I don't know if the Bangor Daily News is biased.

"Platner, who has called Israel’s war in Gaza a “genocide,” faced accusations of antisemitism after news broke that he had a Nazi-linked tattoo (which he then covered, saying he did not realize the connection), and again after he appeared on a podcast whose host had engaged in antisemitic conspiracy theories. But there is nothing in the archive to suggest allegiance with those ideologies. On the contrary, he repeatedly wrote about opposing fascism and Nazism. His only mention of the Jewish people was to push back against a commenter who likened the Holocaust to the Armenian genocide; the Holocaust represented more of a societywide effort to wipe out a population, Platner argued."
