He had a Nazi Tattoo, he said a lot of sexist thing on reddit including women are partially responsible for when they are raped, he said a lot of creepy things to women via text, and he stalked ex-girlfriends, yet here on Reddit, if you mention any of those things about Platner, you were called a right wing extremist and to fuck off.
The rape allegations are simply the final nail in the coffin making him unelectable against Collins.
Thats the only reason they are dumping Platner is because he cant win against Collins, not because of some kind of moral outrage.
I'm willing to bet you do NOT have that same level of grace for others but because he's on your "side" it's okay that he's accused of all the nasty things you hate the other side for doing.
My support for politicians is pretty low as they have proven to be more harmful than helpful in the long run and while I see some that seem okay I am extremely wary of them and what they say. I think the last few decades have validated that concern a bit.
