Or a trans person in crisis.
A trans person would qualify as “someone”, surely?
– I agree with @puzzlegal.
My sense is not to that poster.
Offered without comment,
I’ll note that “Rebel News” is a far right Canadian activist and political media web site. It is alt right and openly anti-Muslim. One of the original contributors was the founder of the Proud Boys. In case any of you who read that article wonder what kind of publication that is.
I still don’t know what is going on with Lemieux, so no comment there.
He’s also one of the founders of Vice, but I don’t think he’s had any involvement with them since 2008.
I think the most telling thing here is that it’s the trashiest tabloids that keep pushing this story. Whoever this person is, whatever their motivations are, it’s none of our business. Maybe they’re a trans person experimenting with their gender presentation, maybe they’re mentally ill, maybe they’re a troll or activist trying to push an issue. Debating it here and debating it on a national stage is not the solution.
If we are referring to Gavin McIness, (McInnes?) I don’t think he has an ounce of moral or ethical direction in him at all. If he thought he could make money starting a website called “The International Socialist Red Banner Worker’s Site” he’d have it up tomorrow.
