If you ever wanted proof that the attacks against Graham Platner are dishonest and motivated by a desire to manipulate, misdirect and smear, here it is.

Man, you sure are downplaying the whole "I wanted to kill people" part. It's almost like you're trying to manipulate and misdirect the conversation

They are also lying about him never being a mercenary. In the very wikipedia article he cites it says he worked for Constellis, which inherited blackwater's contracted when they dissolved, then reformed, basically working for blackwater under a different name.

They also claim they are watching his campaign closely, yet their only refutation cited is a wikipedia article, which actually backs my claims. These people are so weird defending this guy.

EDIT - Oh it seems this conversation was too much and it has been removed from the original post. Cowards.
