According to the Huffington Post, The report alleges that between 2008 and 2012, he made inappropriate and offensive comments on the website “Nude Africa,” where he detailed his alleged acts of secretly watching women in gym showers. It also included screenshots from the forums he reportedly frequented, which showed the “black Nazi” comment and a call for the reinstatement of slavery. Robinson allegedly referred to himself as a “perv” for having a preference for transgender content, which is in stark contrast to his current anti-trans rhetoric.
In his political career, Robinson has repeatedly attacked the LGBTQ+ community, especially transgender individuals, calling them “filth” and making derogatory remarks about gay people. He has advocated for the arrest of transgender women who use women’s bathrooms. There were also rumors about the forum’s content before it was revealed in the report, but Robinson released a video in response stating, “Let me reassure you, the things that you see in that story, those are not the words of Mark Robinson.”

The controversy led to some, including members of former President Donald Trump’s campaign, calling for Robinson to drop out of the race. However, removing his name from the ballot would be too late since absentee ballots are scheduled to be released on Friday.
His comments also sparked viral reactions on social media as his societal views were not reflected in the alleged comments on the forums.
