WATCH: Republican Candidate Claims Social Distancing Causes “Zombies”
JakeThomas
Republican Senate candidate Jo Rae Perkins said social distancing and mask wearing are tools being used by the left to turn Americans into “zombies.”
- In a video posted to Twitter by Right Wing Watch, Perkins says: “If we continue to social distance, de-socialize, mask-shame people, we lose our caring for our fellow human being, and we become zombies. That’s what’ll happen. And it’s very insidious, they’re not going to be open, obvious, about what they’re going to do...I know people are going to call me crazy.”
- RWW previously reported that Perkins is a supporter of QAnon, the conspiracy theory whose followers believe “that President Donald Trump and his allies are fighting a behind-the-scenes war against a cabal of pedophiles and their protectors, who are hiding in plain sight in business, entertainment, and Democratic politics.”
- The publication also noted that Perkins won her primary election earlier this year “in a blowout.”
