In a surprising turn of events, Mark Robinson, the Republican candidate for governor in North Carolina, finds himself at the center of a scandal following a CNN investigation.
The report claims Robinson made inflammatory remarks on an adult forum, referring to himself as a “black NAZI” and expressing views starkly contrasting his public conservative stance.
Robinson’s controversial past came to light through a series of archived messages on a pornographic website known as Nude Africa, where he allegedly posted under the username "minisoldr."
These posts date from 2008 to 2012 and range from sexually explicit content to shocking statements about race and gender.
In one post, Robinson is reported to have said, “I’m a black NAZI!” which he posted unprovoked in a forum discussing Black Republicans.
Further stirring controversy, Robinson allegedly wrote, "Slavery is not bad. Some people need to be slaves. I wish they would bring it (slavery) back. I would certainly buy a few," showcasing a disturbing view on an abhorrent practice.
He also expressed a preference for Adolf Hitler over contemporary U.S. leaders in a 2012 post, declaring, “I’d take Hitler over any of the sh*t that’s in Washington right now!”
Robinson’s purported comments include derogatory remarks directed at various groups, using racial and homophobic slurs in his posts.
He reportedly engaged in a discussion about Martin Luther King Jr., calling him a “commie bastard,” and “worse than a maggot,” among other insults.
Despite the evidence presented, Robinson has denied these allegations, stating in a recent interview, “This is not us. These are not our words. And this is not anything that is characteristic of me.” He accused the report of being “salacious tabloid lies.”
This revelation comes at a critical time as Robinson, who rose to prominence as a vocal opponent of transgender rights and abortion, is currently campaigning for the governorship.
He has reiterated his commitment to staying in the race, emphasizing the support he believes he has from his constituents.
