The GOP Frontrunner for Governor in North Carolina Posted a Lot of Antisemitic Stuff
"I am so sick of seeing and hearing people STILL talk about Nazis and Hitler and how evil and manipulative they were."
The Republican frontrunner in North Carolina’s 2024 gubernatorial race made a slew of antisemitic comments over the past decade including sharing a quote that has been attributed to Adolf Hitler. The newly unearthed social media posts, first reported by Jewish Insider, also show Mark Robinson, the state’s lieutenant governor, comparing the tearing down of a Confederate monument to both the Nazis’ first mass roundup of Jews and the racist horrors inflicted by the Ku Klux Klan.
The posts are the latest round of controversy for Robinson. Last year, he was captured on video calling straight couples “superior” to gay couples. And after Robinson characterized being transgender or gay as “filth,” the White House condemned his remarks as “repugnant and offensive,” the News & Observer reported. Those comments also led several state Democrats and LGBTQ advocacy groups to call for the lieutenant governor to resign. If he were to win the nomination, Robinson would likely face Democrat Josh Stein, North Carolina’s attorney general, who is Jewish.

So this black Republican is defending Nazis and the Confederacy? Well, it's a good thing both of those groups highly respected black people.
Wait, they didn't?!!!
He's probably head of his local Black
PanthersLeopards (Will Eat My Face).Fine, it wasn't a very good joke.
I liked it.
It's good in my opinion (which no one cares about)
Would be better without the parens because it leaves something for the reader to figure out, but not a bad joke at all.
He doesn't need republicans to respect him. He needs them to give him money and power and they will happily do that as long as he runs defence for them while they make life worse for other black people. As long as he has money and power he will be insulated from the bad things his policies might inflict on him.
