Mark Robinson: 'I Absolutely Want To Go Back To The America Where Women Couldn’t Vote' (1 Viewer)

[LovesMusic7360]

On Tuesday, Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson won the GOP primary to become his party’s nominee for North Carolina governor, presumably with the help of female voters.
But just four years ago, Robinson said he’d “absolutely” like to return to the days when the 19th Amendment didn’t exist ― when women didn’t have the right to vote.
“I absolutely want to go back to the America where women couldn’t vote,” Robinson said in a newly resurfaced video of his remarks at a March 2020 event hosted by the Republican Women of Pitt County.

In a newly unearthed video, North Carolina’s GOP nominee for governor says America was better then because Republicans "fought for real social change."

I'm offended that the man won election as Lieutenant Governor. No man with his views should ever be in any governmental office.

No woman should ever vote for this man. In fact, any woman who supports this man should not vote. They agree that they shouldn't vote if they vote for him.

Finally to him and all who want to repeal the 19th Amendment:

So we've talked about this before about a number of people but it seems like the price of admission and requirement of a minority to a Republican on the national stage (be it as a politician or a media pundit) is you must be as anti minority as possible,

Mark Robinson is more than a few steps beyond that

He is not even an extreme version of that requirement

He is more of a cartoonish parody of an extreme version of that requirement

Back in his pre-political days, Mark Robinson wasn’t spending all his online time trawling the forums of porn sites. He spent some time reading and commenting on small political sites too—where the opinions he shared, The Bulwark has learned, were no less unhinged.

“If the cops wanted to shoot an elderly black man they should have shot Al Sharpton,” Robinson commented in April 2009 on a NewsOne article about Sharpton participating in a police-brutality protest. “Closing his mouth would do this Nation good.”

“Obama IS a blackface step-in fectch-it [sic] for liberal white America,” Robinson wrote on the same site the same month.

“It’s Oprah the wicked witch, leading the way to sexing up the children!” he wrote beneath another article a few days later.

These comments are previously unreported. And for good reason: They’re no longer accessible on the Internet, as the comments systems Robinson used to make them are now defunct. The Bulwark was only able to access them through an archive of old comments made on sites built with the content management system WordPress. Plugging Robinson’s personal email address (the same one that multiple outlets have reported on in recent days) into that archive, we were able to find his now-infamous “minisoldr” username and the comments he left.

These additional posts underscore just how wide-ranging Robinson’s use of the “minisoldr” alias was..............

It turns out that some things do matter in electoral politics.

CNN’s KFile reported last week on North Carolina Republican gubernatorial nominee Mark Robinson making inflammatory and racist remarks on a porn website’s message board. We now have polling data measuring the potential impact of that investigation on the race.

Robinson looks like he may suffer the largest defeat in more than 40 years for a major-party nominee for governor in North Carolina.

Our CNN/SSRS poll puts Democrat Josh Stein up 53% to Robinson’s 36% among likely Tar Heel State voters. The poll was conducted entirely after publication of the KFile story.

Notably, Stein’s 17-point advantage is larger than his lead in any poll taken this year. It is significantly larger than the 11- and 10-point leads Stein had in surveys from slightly earlier this month from Marist College and The New York Times/Siena College.

While our poll could be an outlier, it would make a lot of sense that Robinson’s worst survey comes after the devastating report that led to a lot Republican officials distancing themselves from the lieutenant governor.

A 17-point win for a Democratic nominee for governor would be nothing short of historic. The last North Carolina Democrat to win a gubernatorial race by more than Stein’s lead in the CNN poll was Gov. Jim Hunt in 1980.............

North Carolina’s lieutenant governor, Republican Mark Robinson, received burns on Friday night while attending a truck show as he was campaigning for governor, his campaign said.

Robinson was making an appearance at the Mayberry truck show in Mount Airy when he was injured, campaign spokesperson Mike Lonergan said in a statement.

Robinson was treated at Northern regional hospital in Mount Airy for second-degree burns, he added.


“He is in good spirits, appreciates the outpouring of well wishes, and is excited to return to the campaign trail as scheduled first thing” on Saturday morning, Lonergan said.

Lonergan didn’t immediately respond to texts seeking details on how and where the burns occurred. Robinson had made campaign stops starting on Friday morning with Moore county Republicans. He has four appearances scheduled for Saturday.……

With Donald Trump bragging about his increasing support from Black voters, there is a media spotlight on Black right-wingers. And the brightest light is on Mark Robinson, North Carolina’s lieutenant governor and the Republican nominee for governor.

Robinson is not your typical Black conservative. Rather, he is the real-life version of Clayton Bigsby, the “Black white supremacist” character created by comedian Dave Chappelle.

Bigsby was a blind man, unaware that he was Black, who made a political career out of hating Black people. In one infamous sketch, Bigsby screeches, “White Power!” In a speech laced with N-words, he declares that “America’s at war with Al-Qaeda, but we’re still losing the war against Al Sharpton!” Bigsby concludes: “Don’t let the liberal media tell you how to think and feel! If you have ‘hate’ in your heart, let it out!”

Now, American politics is facing the not-so-funny reality of Robinson. The Trump-endorsed Republican candidate for governor of North Carolina is reported to have labeled himself a “black NAZI” online.

Under cover of anonymity, Robinson wrote on an online pornography forum: “Mein Kampf is a good read. It’s very informative and not at all what I thought it would be. It’s a real eye-opener.”

Later he wrote: “I’d take Hitler over any of the sh*t that’s in Washington right now!”

That mindset led Robinson to proclaim: “Slavery is not bad. Some people need to be slaves. I wish they would bring it (slavery) back. I would certainly buy a few.”

Is that the face of Black conservatism? No, it isn’t. In truth, Robinson’s comic act is a tragic slander of every true Black conservative.

Conservative ideas for Black self-help and advancement — for example, backing charter schools to compete with failing public schools — have a long pedigree, reaching back to Booker T. Washington through Malcolm X. They still deserve attention.

By allowing himself to be used as a tool for white racists, Robinson is setting fire to those Black conservatives who think outside the box.

Michael Eric Dyson, a Vanderbilt professor, recently described Robinson as a puppet with “Black mouth moving, white supremacist ideas coming out.”

Robinson is not to be confused with real giants of Black conservative thinking — people such as Stanford economist Thomas Sowell, who has argued that minimum wage laws depress Black employment and called for decriminalization of all drugs...........
