On another note, I have never seen so many receipts on one guy, lol, damn.
Despite a recent history of anti-transgender rhetoric, Robinson said he enjoyed watching transgender pornography
Good enough to be porn, not good enough for rights.
And they said I wouldn't be a real woman...
Maybe that's why they keep insisting being trans is a sexual thing-- they can't stop thinking of porn
Sort of like how they keep talking about how they don't want "the gay agenda" to be "forced down my throat."
😏
On the Nude Africa website in both comments and his profile, minisoldr offered numerous details that align precisely with Robinson’s personal history.
In his profile, minisoldr listed his full name as “mark robinson” and disclosed a private email address Robinson used elsewhere online. In 2012, a user responded to a comment by calling minisoldr “Mark.”
Minisoldr mentioned in 2008 being married for 18 years, which corresponds with Robinson’s marriage to Yolanda Hill in 1990. In 2011, minisoldr wrote he had been married 21 years. Minisoldr wrote in a 2011 post that he lived in Greensboro, North Carolina, the same town where Robinson lived at the time and currently lives.
In a post in 2012, minisoldr said he served in the Army in the 1980s, during the same time period as Robinson. In his sexually graphic comments detailing watching women in the showers in 2011, minisoldr wrote that his mother worked at an Historically Black College and University (HBCU). Robinson’s mother worked as a custodian at North Carolina A&T State University, an HBCU located in Greensboro.
Both minisoldr and Robinson often posted about the same topics online, including reviews for remote-controlled helicopters, their attraction to specific celebrities and their favorite “Twilight Zone” episode.
The email address associated with minisoldr on Nude Africa was also used by Robinson elsewhere online and social media. On the commenting platform Disqus, a user who joined in April 2011 features Mark Robinson’s photo under the username minisoldr.
Usernames and email addresses from Disqus were publicly leaked online in 2017, according to the company. CNN confirmed that Robinson’s username minisoldr on Disqus shared the same email address as the one used on Nude Africa.
Robinson’s Disqus page is also linked to the Black social networking site Black Planet. The Web Archive shows a user named “minisoldr” described themselves as 40 years old in February 2009 – the same age as Robinson at the time – and living in Greensboro, North Carolina – Robinson’s hometown.
Oof. And it keeps going
This dude goes shopping at CVS and says "not enough receipts".
This is really great reporting too. I just watched the video confrontation between the reporter and Robinson and it was incredible. Robinson made a weak excuse about AI but the reporter gave no quarter and had so many facts on recall.
It was the most satisfying thing I've watched on TV since Vice President Kamala Harris told Donald Trump directly to his, well, ear, that Putin would "eat you for lunch" while he stared dead ahead, unable to even look her in the eye.
Strongmen usually aren't, and it's nice to see that deftly demonstrated every once in a while.
On another note, I have never seen so many receipts on one guy, lol, damn.
Trump? Ghouliani. Two+ dozen people who’ve worked for both.
Seriously— yes you have. This is kinda the MAGA MO
Presented with the details re: how CNN determined the comments came from him, Robinson responded: “I’m not going to get into the minutia of how somebody manufactured this, these salacious tabloid lies.”
Sure, buddy. Somebody in 2008 spent 4 years writing posts on an obscure web forum using an account registered to your email address, just so they could have a "gotcha!" moment when you decided to run for governor over a decade later.
Or, in other words, a typical Republican.
Well, I don't think your typical republican calls themself a Black Nazi.
Dean Browning might.
Not out loud in public
They’re better at not getting caught, anyway
I can definitely see the resemblance.
Came here for Uncle Ruckus, was not disappointed.
May White God Bless America. 🫡
Democrat candidate: supports unions. feeds school kids. Wants to restore women's rights.
Republican candidate: endorsed slavery, and described spying on women in public showers in porn forum
Undecided voters; 🤷
Yeah, even with single issue voters I don't see how...he seems like he's an internet creation of the worst possible candidate to run, with replies of "that's a bit too far, no one would believe that."
"I literally can't tell these two apart"
Not to mention the Republican candidate called trans people filth, demonized abortion after his wife had one, and was known to spend multiple nights per week at the local adult arcade
This is Martin Luther King on steroids...I told that to Mark. I said, I think you’re better than Martin Luther King. I think you are Martin Luther King times two
And to be fair to Trump, it seems like Robinson is comparable to MLK in the sense both of them would be deeply offended by the comparison.
Amazing comment...
In case anybody's wondering, Fox News currently has this story 27th out of their normally formatted links on their home page, with the headline "GOP gubernatorial candidate vehemently denies graphic allegations, won't exit race".
You'll need to scroll past gems like:
A couple years ago this would have been a strange headline, today not so much.
Things you will rarely read about democrats: "said batshit insane stuff on some hentai forum"
Things you will rarely read about democrats: “said batshit insane stuff on some hentai forum”
Either because a) they didn't do it, or b) were smart enough to not have the comments be tracked back to them personally
You got to have a unique pornhub username that's not the same as other accounts! I wouldn't vote for this guy based on that alone.
He sounds very Trump-like to me!
Made in his own image...
He has publicly denied the Holocaust and has made many antisemitic remarks. Is anyone surprised that he considers himself a black Nazi?
He sounds like the kind of Black person white supremacists like: one not only venal enough to carry their flag and accept their instrumental praise, but to demonstrate the sort of stupidity and savagery that reinforces their view of their racial superiority.
and this is why nowadays I use different usernames on EVERY website I register on unless I use my real name anyway and want the things I do there to be associated with me
Do you talk a lot about being a black Nazi into spying on women in public showers?
Yeah, this is the funny thing; in some bizarre future where I run in politics, and someone does discover the weird stuff I've said in NSFW channels, I'd be like; "Yes, this is embarrassing, but still isn't a big mark on my character."
There's a big gap between being into weird stuff that's basically harmless, and actively enjoying the genuine denigrating/harm of others.
No but there might still be something in my comment history that someone could use against me.
*I* heard this candidate likes to use a blanket to roll schnoodles into burritos... You simply cannot vote for them!
This is why I never comment
This is why I never comment
I love that he's going with the Shaggy defense. CNN had more receipts than an accountant in April
That’s literally anti-black black guy lol
Imagine being this fucking weird
No wonder Trump endorsed him
Yeah but other than those things he's probably an ok guy 🙄?
