Choose from the complete list of GLAAD Accountability Profiles:
Gavin McInnes
Founder, Proud Boys
Co-founder, VICE Media
—Wrote in an article: “We’re all transphobic…. We see there are no old trannies. They die of drug overdoses and suicide way before they’re 40 and nobody notices because nobody knows them. They are mentally ill gays who need help, and that doesn’t include being maimed by physicians.”
—Referred to transgender people with slur and called them “stupid lunatics.”
—Founded the Proud Boys, which the FBI classifies as an extremist group with ties to white nationalism. The organization has also been designated a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center.
—Said Michael Wolff, author of Fire and Fury, can’t be trusted in his reporting on the Trump administration because he has a “gay face.”
The GLAAD Accountability Project catalogs anti-LGBTQ rhetoric and discriminatory actions of politicians, commentators, organization heads, religious leaders, and legal figures, who have used their platforms, influence and power to spread misinformation and harm LGBTQ people.
