    As an intellectual exercise, what do you suppose are the chances that Vance is a nazi? I don’t mean ‘nazi’ in a rhetorical sense, and I don’t mean ‘nazi’ in the sense that his worldview and ideologies overlap with those of nazis. I mean, what are the chances that he’s actually in his basement with a brown shirt, seig heil-ing from time to time? It probably doesn’t matter, as long as his civic actions support that cause anyway. But I wonder this each time I hear yet another awful detail about this loser. I peg it at about 10%, low but definitely above zero.

      He’s definitely one of those guys that’s says he collects WWII memorabilia, when what he means is he has a basement full of Nazi flags

        I knew a kid like that. His parents would say how he’s super into WW2 history. Meanwhile he only had an absolute shit ton of Nazi memorabilia only read books about Nazis and dressed in a leather jacket that looks like the Nazi one … I’m pretty sure he’s a Nazi… Idk why else it would be his absolute only interest area and nothing else
