So this is why this kind of propaganda works perfectly. Long story short, he really does have a deaths-head tattoo, and so it literally doesn't matter if he didn't get it for Nazi reasons, isn't a Nazi, it wasn't used exclusively by the Nazis, all that kind of stuff. All someone has to do is sound rock solid confident and say something like this, and it undoes all of that, and all of a sudden this kind of label will stick to him like glue especially when it is repeated from all kinds of different corners. Just like "AOC = genocide" based on one vote on one trivial amendment, just like "Bernie = Zionist" based on some very bizarre definitions of "Zionist," you can undo all the potential good this person can do and all the total factual wrongness of the accusation just by being simple, super-confident, and repetitious with it. That's really all you need to do. It works really well.

Anyway. Why is this always applied this way towards the most progressive candidate? And, more to the point, why don't you ever apply this electioneering energy against someone like Nancy Pelosi, or Nancy Mace, or Susan Collins, or someone who actually is part of the dark side?

I realize that by even making a long comment, I'm feeding into it. "If you're explaining, you're losing" type of thing. But anyway: Yes, it's total bullshit, it's not a Nazi tattoo any more than the swastikas on Hindu temples are Nazi symbology. It's just a death's head, he's in no way a Nazi, and all of a sudden now we're talking about that instead of about what he wants to do politically. Good job.
