North Carolina lieutenant governor tells Moms for Liberty "it's time" to start reading Hitler quotes

North Carolina Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson told a Philadelphia audience on Sunday that dictators like Hitler and Mao are being taken out of context and that their texts are worth reconsidering, The New Republic reports. Robinson was one of several speakers — including 2024 presidential candidates Donald Trump, Ron DeSantis, Vivek Ramaswamy and Nikki Haley — at the second annual summit for Moms for Liberty, a parents-rights group that the Southern Poverty Law Center recently deemed a political extremist organization.

"And here's the thing: Whether you're talking about Adolf Hitler; whether you're talking about Chairman Mao; whether you're talking about Stalin; whether you're talking about Pol Pot; whether you're talking about Castro in Cuba; or whether you're talking about a dozen other despots all around the globe; it is time for us to get back and start reading some of those quotes," Robinson, who has previously called communism a greater threat to the world than Nazism, said of the figures, most of whom were communists.

Robinson's remarks are not the first time he or Moms for Liberty have cited Hitler. The North Carolina official, who assumed office in 2021, has a history of spewing antisemitic, anti-Black and homophobic rhetoric online. Talking Points Memo, in a deep report into the last seven years of Robinson's Facebook activity, discovered he posted false claims about the 2020 election, conspiracy theories and Holocaust denialism. Two weeks ago, Moms for Liberty also came under fire after an Indiana chapter included a quote from Hitler in its newsletter. Though the group issued an apology and, at first, attempted to justify their inclusion of the quote by adding context, they removed it altogether after receiving a barrage of criticism.

And there was another group Hitler targeted that Ye may be less familiar with: Black people. Hitler thought Black people were inferior and “dirty.” Black Germans were sent to concentration camps, Black children were forcibly sterilized and African American and African French prisoners of war were often subjected to worse treatment by German captors, including summary execution, according the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum.

In Hitler’s 1925 book “Mein Kampf,” he used the derogatory term “Rhineland bastards” to describe children born of marriages between German women and African men serving in the French military. He repeatedly called interracial relationships between White and Black people a “sin against God” and called their progeny “contaminated” and “infected with lower humanity.” In 1937, Hitler approved the forcible sterilization of approximately 500 biracial Black children, a fact kept hidden until 1979, when German historian Reiner Pommerin exposed the plot.
