Planter, a US veteran and mercenary, has continued to receive support from “progressive” Democrats even after it was revealed he had a Totenkopf, the favored symbol of Hitler’s SS, on his chest for nearly two decades.

That such iconography could circulate for years within the US military and diplomatic-security apparatus underscores what the World Socialist Web Site reported six years ago in “Neo-Nazi networks exposed across US military”: fascist and white-supremacist currents have been cultivated inside the armed forces.

    He is a small baby who did a whoospie in his teenage years (30+) and did a few tours (for his healthcare coverage smh) in the near east killing brown people as a mercenary, big deal!

    Gosh you tankies have such ridiculous purity standards for candidates, I mean which principled anti-fascist hasn’t gotten a few nazi tattoos here and there?? If we want to do a heckin revolution we need to abandon every principle we stand for and give up any goal we strive for. We will defeat capitalists by supporting capitalism!
