"How do you expect to win back men when you go back through somebody’s Reddit history and just pull it all out and say: ‘Oh, my God, this person has no right to ever be in politics?’"

Sometimes I wonder if I’m still not holding onto some reactionary views I never purged from my head, but me having a full blown totenkopf tattoo and having been a blackwater merc for 18 years really pales in comparison.

In all seriousness - we all can improve here or there. But I also do not have a full blown totenkopf tattoo and I wasn’t a blackwater merc for 18 years.
We have some people here who were former far right. They aren’t even in the same league as this dude. None of them are proud of it and none of them would ever remotely defend tours in iraq, afghanistan or working for a dark merc company doing america’s dirty work. It’s fucking absurd how bad this guy is.
I was a “far right” teenager, but the worst thing I did was make some edgy posts making fun of liberals. I would surely never do that again that was really terrible of me… 😢
I had a desktop background with the word “removed” as a teenager (don’t know if anyone here remembers Maddox, but this was his influence). Then my older sister saw it and (verbally) beat the shit out of me until I removed it in shame. I owe her a lot.
I also don’t have a totenkopf or did 18 years in Blackwater.

Oh yeah 100% same.

None of them are running for public office.
I had a gamer gate phase at 16. I’m not running for office though because I’m way to autistic and would look weird to normies
I had like a 6 month AnCap phase.
Yes I was like 15.

I do have a few potentially problematic Norse runes tattooed on my ass from that one time I got blackout drunk in Oslo.
However, I wasn’t a Blackwater merc for 18 years.
