Overcompensating for youthful edginess is extremely common motivation among radical trannifa types of a certain generation. Dominion's Eric Coomer is one of these types too - in his case, a former 'anti-racist skinhead' or SHARP, in an 80s/90s punk subculture that was seeing a nationalist resurgence. It was often said that if you scratch a SHARP you'll uncover a hastily concealed nazi tattoo. Platner seems young for all that, but it's probably a similar psychological journey. This is supposedly him on reddit
In the metal scene a few years back there was a grievance farmer called Daniel Gallant, described in the news as 'former Canadian skinhead turned activist'. His trick was to take his top off in front of musicians and then try to get them cancelled later if they didn't react with sufficient shock to his large tattooed swastika. These weasels are among the most nauseating commies you can find. They have no core to their souls other than the need to be fanatical in the cause of something, even if their fanaticism amounts to nothing more than a pathetic, performative, belated penance.
I guess it's a similar but starker example of the phenomenon where journos and games industry types, who freely joked about fags and trannies in the 2000s, somehow became the most devoted woke allies post-gamergate.

All the more reason to beware of them most of all, if they're willing to shift allegiances based on peer pressure and public shaming.
