That I can’t make out.. What do you see?

But, you know what I don't see, an MS-13 tattoo on his hand.

It ain't there. Period.

To ask the guy what they are supposed to represent?

was so obviously fake that I could tell on my phone with cataract-riddled eyes.

for idiots

He likely has only decent distance vision. Since he's not wearing glasses - even when he does things like look close up at pictures - he probably can't see clearly enough to tell it's a shallow fake.

(My spouse had cataract surgery about a year ago and refuses to wear glasses. She's blind as a bat for anything close up. I keep telling her there are these miraculous things called glasses . . . but to the point here, last week she repotted some plastic cacti which she was sure had grown since someone gave them to her. I pointed out the mold seam on two of the three "plants," which - of course - she couldn't see.)

… he claim is that the tattoos on his knuckles are symbols for MS13. The tats are real. They have been visible in numerous photos of Garcia - including the ones where Hollan met with him.

I’ve seen some posts here explaining that they don’t mean MS13, but the thing about symbols is that they can mean different things to different people in different cultures at different times. So it’s unlikely there will ever be a definitive answer to the question of what they mean - which is why Shitgibbon is harping on it. He can’t be clearly proven wrong, and the cult will just believe him no matter what.

during the Terry Moran interview.

… letters/numbers were added as an attempt to de-code the symbols. So you’re right, he did actually claim the letters/numbers were there. He’s an idiot.

But the RW bullshit platforms are where you’ll find that they claim it’s a symbolic MS13. It’s their cover for him.

Their only real skill is blurring the line between truth and bullshit. They always have a cover scenario to fall back on that allows them to blame us for not understanding what he really meant. I think this is one of those instances.

Until I saw the interview where he actually insisted the letters “MS13” were also part of the tattoo.

… bring myself to watch the interview. I was going on what I’ve heard from some right wing news sources over the last week or so.

Never charged or convicted of a crime, even if those are code for that. Freedom of Association is part of the First Amendment. And maybe the guy has issues, but those were never litigated he needs to return for that at the least. I fear this is a trap and they guy might have issues and it will be a gotcha, so we have to focus on lack of due process rather than the veracity of their "facts", those need to be litigated.
