Overview
Mark Robinson "Black Nazi" minisoldr Scandal refers to a controversy and scandal revolving around internets posts reportedly made by the Republican nominee for governor of North Carolina Mark Robinson under the username @minisoldr on various internet forums, including the adult site "Nude Africa." A September 2024 report by CNN alleges that the politician made several inflammatory statements on the website's message board over a decade ago, referring to himself as a "black NAZI!" and expressing support for reinstating slavery. A Politico report released on the same date also found Robinson's email address listed on Ashley Madison. The controversial nature of this report led to memes, reactions and discourse online in late September 2024.

The decade-old statements uncovered by the CNN report include a comment in which @minisolder claimed, "I'm a black NAZI!" as well as a series of posts in which Robinson supposedly claims to enjoy transgender adult content and calls himself a "perv," despite his recent anti-trans rhetoric.

AI is powerful, but it can’t rewrite internet history from 15 years ago. It’s the same nonsense we saw this summer from Laura Loomer… pic.twitter.com/fcgfXXi1ub— Mike Nellis (@MikeNellis) September 19, 2024
