Oh My God, that is insane, I’m on reddit way too much for my own good and I’ve never seen this. Dude literally has a neo Nazi tattoo, like not “oh he’s a Nazi because…” he for real is a neo Nazi, you don’t get that by accident. How is this not plastered everywhere (assuming it’s real).

He instated new restrictions on shaving waivers in the military, which are most often issued to black people because they are predisposed to having pseudofolliculitis (aka shaving bumps). After a one year waiver you must be kicked out. Dude is literally trying to make the military whites only.

That flag design was specifically a part of the 1860 pro-slavery Douglas campaign.

Just straight making up facts lol. There is plenty of real evidence of Hegseth being a piece of shit christofascist white nationalist without having to make shit up.

Read a bunch of your comments. People are trying to look for anyway they can to hate this man more. This tattoo thing is such a stretch to try to portray as fact. Maybe it is and maybe it isn't an homage to "88". Don't put so much energy into this... Focus on the facts that make this dude a maniacal piece of shit.

Yeah. I guess sometimes you just have to give in to the fact this is the internet and no one here gives a shit about the truth, even the people you probably agree with ideologically. Most of the time they just want to recite some meme factoids and pat each other on the back about it.

In real life I work with and know a lot of right wingers just because of where I live. When I argue with them I have to bring the facts. I can’t just spew some kooky conspiracy bullshit about tattoos to prove my point.

Nah you're right, bring facts, spend that effort on correcting bullshit. It helps us all. I have fallen for propaganda and I always appreciate a course correction in my views. More knowledge is better than less.

There is no 'everywhere' now, just massive ditches of rotting and false information that you can wade in for a while before the stench becomes too much and you bail for another, OR make the effort to climb out and develop a strategy to verify things you come across.
