Doesn't matter, they'll swear up and down either way that they didn't, and it's such a regrettable blah, blah, blah [insert more ass-covering press copy here].

Which is the problem. This guy made very little attempt to hide this shit. So either they have to admit they hired him, knowing full well what his views were. Or that they didn't do the slightest bit of research before making him a trustee

This is going to have far reaching consequences beyond Mermaids. He's written for Pink News, he's employed at LSE, Sally Hines of refusing to even be on the same panel as Kathleen Stock fame has chaired panels where he's spoken.

Imagine if it was Pink News and Mermaids that set back gay rights by giving actual ammo to the “gays are all predatory paedos” crowd. The libel that was just starting to die off, gets reinvigorated by these guys, crazy.

If PN were self-aware they would be putting out lots of content throwing both this paedo-apologist and Mermaids under the bus. Wonder if OJ will say anything.

I wonder if they are self-aware but so infested with pedos at this point that they have no choice but to circle the wagons.

I think a lot of trans are so emotionally desperate they would happily trade kids getting raped to get what they want.

And a lot of them were abused as kids themselves. I think that is a thing, traumatised people trying to make out what happened to them was actually no big deal or even a good thing so they don't have to accept they were a weak, helpless victim at one point.
