That's what happened in 2019-2020.

The Yaniv ballwaxing complaints first came to r/gc's attention in October 2018 when the Economist and GenderTrender referred to them. The British Columbia government put a publication ban but by then some papers had leaked and GT outed JY.

That happened on 11/9/2018. On 11/16, Wordpress shut GT down. On 11/18, the American Conservative magazine became the first, and one of very few, to talk directly about GenderTrender's shutdown. More press happened, and I chronicled all that. On 12/12, JY appeared before his City Council for LGBT+ funding for, I believe, hygiene products in schools. He also bragged that he had gotten Meghan Murphy banned from Twitter. That's the last I chronicled, because I got banned 12/18/18.

But yeah, what happened in 2019 was he'd go to the City Council every week. He declared he was a beauty pageant queen for Miss BC in March. He ended up eliminated but then showed up to take pictures of young girls with his mom in tow in May. When the pub ban went away in July, the Canadian and mainstream press started covering JY as did others. JY accepted invites from Alex Jones and was flattered that Trump Jr. wrote a bad tweet about him. He thought he was winning so he had a debate with Ms. Blaire White on livestream that got him arrested.

I remember the Yaniv nonsense. I can't believe they banned you for that.

I was just a harbinger for Reddit banning all of r/gc and Glinner getting banned off Twitter for "men aren't women tho." Same as what Murphy said.
