Welcome to what is the 1059th original profile here at “Fanatical Republican Extremist of the Day”, where we’ll be discussing Buzz Patterson, who was a 2020 candidate for U.S. House of Representatives in California’s 7th Congressional District hoping to unseat incumbent Democratic Representative Ami Bera. At one point during the build-up to the election, Patterson was asked on Twitter if he supported the Qanon conspiracy theory, and he gleefully responded, “Yep!” While he was at it, Patterson was also trying to spread the conspiracy theory that the Covid-19 virus was deliberately created in a lab in Wuhan, China, and frequently referred to the virus by the racist sobriquet, “kung flu”.
As you might expect, his Twitter account is a hodge-podge of s***posts, JAQ-ing off, and right-wing lunacy, including but not limited to denying the science behind vaccines, and of course, a dash of anti-Semitism to spread other conspiracy theories about George Soros.
Buzz Patterson only managed 43% of the vote against Ami Bera in 2020, and is registered to again face him in 2020. Let’s hope he doesn’t get out of the primary this time.
