He also posted on June 1, 2020 "It is official I am a racist because I do not agree with people acting like animals at the zoo."

On another Facebook post on June 1, 2020, Perry wrote: “now it is my turn to get banned (from Facebook) by comparing the black lives matter movement to a zoo full of monkeys that are freaking out flinging their s--t.”

Perry, who is Jewish, said in another Facebook post that a Black Lives Matter leader had compared a Jew to a termite.

Perry shared countless memes on Facebook including one that said "If this symbol represents racism in America ...(shows Confederate flag) SO DO THESE (shows NAACP logo, Hispanic scholarship fund, American Association for Affirmative Action, BET, UNCP, the democratic party logo, etc.)
