They're quite well done. The subject choice sucks, but I might admire his talent if he wasn't so repulsive ms liberty Sep 2024 #7

because he embraced and loved G.O.P. values.

Now, um, they'd rather not talk about him.

In every other way. Many of the other artists on that page displayed their figurines of Allied soldiers, so it didn't appear at a glance to be a neonazi type site. Toy soldiers just aren't my thing, and I don't appreciate the continuing obsession with every detail of WWII in particular. It's become a glorification of war, not ongoing respect for the sacrifice of the warriors.

Artistic talent happens regardless of the person one becomes. He shows his beliefs and interests in his subject matter, and he tells us to our faces that he's a completely misogynistic, bigoted, loathsome fascist ahole, so no surprise that he's into tiny nazi toy soldiers.

I look forward to voting against him soon!

When I was a kid there was a guy who lived near us, I think he was a a Korean War vet, who was obsessed with Nazi uniforms and medals. The term he always used was “sharp”…like “That helmet looks sharp on that Storm Trooper.”

Needless to say, all the adults thought he was nuts. And a wannabe Nazi.

I went with him to a few gun shows and they had a section selling Nazi paraphernalia.

That was big at flea markets when I was young. We figured motorcycle gang members bought that stuff. The other group, according to my father were people who served honorably in World War II, who wanted to have souvenirs of having killed some Germans, but neglected to take anything off the body at the time.

Robinson seems to admire people who would murder most on the planet and enslave those who survive.

For those still capable of using their critical faculties:
