Christopher “let the disabled starve and die” Barnett running for OK governor

[JA]

Thomas Malthus Christopher Barnett is a minor Republican candidate running for Governor of Oklahoma. He holds some disturbing beliefs about the disabled and hasn’t been shy about expressing it, although he has attempted to hide and erase some of his most disgusting social media comments. Fortunately, people have screenshotted his remarks. The images below are all screenshots taken by others. I was unable to find any news articles on this issue either.

He has no chance of winning the primary. Not due to this, but because he's gay.

A gay nazi. The Republican party knows no bounds.

Worse yet - he insists on defaulting on highway bonds. And I would not vote for someone who wants to legalize marijuana.

Why are we making a thread in the US General section about some execrable Some Dude? This assh*le will be lucky to get half a percentage in a primary with several big names.

What an idiot. A prime example of "libertarianism" at work.

Yes. This is how most libertarians, and in fact probably half of Republicans feel. Ron Paul's "let him die" moment and the audience's reaction proved that.

HP, but he’s brave enough to say what most on the Right feel, but hold inside for social graces.

Maybe he's a part of the "very fine" people on both sides?

[ProudModerate2]

Unbelievable.
This dude is evil.

[Since I'm the mad scientist proclaimed by myself]

Ableism still exists, and these sentiments are disturbingly common.

Are you honestly surprised that an Atlas user found an example of an embarrassing figure running in a GOP primary and broadcasted it to the site?  We are STILL seeing Don Blankenship topics because red avatars were so let down that he lost handily.

lmao

Let's be real though, he'd probably win the general if he somehow won the nomination. This is Oklahoma after all. Even Roy Moore would've won there since there's no black people.

To be fair, this is a statewide race, not a federal race. People are less polarized in state races. Even a dem in Alabama almost won the LG race in 2010.

And people here say there's no diversity in the GOP!

I would encourage all Oklahoma Republicans to get out and vote for a serious candidate.  Don't say he can't win.  In 1986, a slate of LaRouche followers won Dem primaries for Lt. Gov and Sec. of State in Illinois.  It CAN happen.

We already had Milo Yiannopoulos so it's becoming more common. I guess that's still progress...hooray?

ironic because he looks inbred
