Morgane Oger, that well known "mom" of two, is running for mayor of Vancouver.

One planks of 'her' manifesto is shutting down the Vancouver Rape Relief Shelter because of its anti-trans policy.

Not spiteful at all.......

Bell end
Terrifying though that people vote for him.

TerfAndSerf · 05/06/2018 21:00

I had no idea such an evil, self-serving parasite existed.

Consider me learned.

This person also planned to protest at a memorial service for victims of the Ecole Polytechnique massacre. Not sure if he actually did so in the end, but what kind of monster even considers protesting a memorial for murdered students?

terryleather · 05/06/2018 21:08

Well remembered Angry. Couldn't believe that one when I read about it.

In a field that's chockablock with misogynistic narcissistic fudds MO is undoubtedly a prince amongst men.

Transgender identified males showed up to protest at several memorials for the Ecole Polytechnique massacre over the past few years.
They are large, they are male, and they are terrorists, so they enjoy putting on public displays of male dominance by terrorizing women and vandalizing women's memorials and libraries.
They carry baseball bats to beat women into submission at what used to be Gay Pride parades.

I keep seeing Morgane Onger's involvement.

"The president of the BCNDP which is the political party in power in the province right now, Morgane Oger, has proudly continued the campaign to end Vancouver Rape Relief's work to heal survivors of male violence, calling the org a "private hate club."

"Yesterday, Oger told a survivor of female genital mutilation that her insistence that the mutilation happened due to her sex, not gender, was an excuse to be transphobic since the survivor insisted biological sex is relevant to women's oppression."

I think this was the first time I heard of Onger:

There is much to dislike about VRR. In fact, I think it is an organisation with odious views. But there is always a shortage of rape support and I think Oger is wrong to try force closure.

Baroquehavoc · 05/06/2018 21:25

It must be expensive to run a campaign for mayor. Some people must think he is worth backing. Either despite his misogyny or because of it.

Ereshkigal · 05/06/2018 21:25

That last thread and the twitter thread was such a fantastic Spartacus moment.

Vancouver Rape Relief?

ToeToToe · 05/06/2018 21:33

Oh, do enlighten us Gibbert. Hmm

Pratchet · 05/06/2018 21:42

Well this is going to be interesting. A rape crisis centre is 'odious'. Yuh huh.

Ereshkigal · 05/06/2018 21:42

Vancouver Rape Relief?

It's hardly surprising that someone like Gibbert thinks that somewhere that centres women and bravely safeguards their rights to not be harassed by abusive males is odious.

FermatsTheorem · 05/06/2018 21:46

Yes, waiting to find out what odious vies Vancouver Rape Crisis centre holds.

Ogre (misspelling entirely intentional) is a vile individual.

ToeToToe · 05/06/2018 21:50

I expect that as well as not letting men in, VRR stamps on kittens, and pulls the wings off butterflies.

Pratchet · 05/06/2018 21:50

Could it be that men are men? How frightfully beyond the pale.

Lemonjello · 05/06/2018 22:10

No one would call a rape crisis centre odious surely? Especially not in defence of The Ogre?

I imagine poor Gibbert just made a typo. Not to worry, I’ve fixed it.

There is much to dislike about Ogre. In fact, I think he is an abomination with odious views

thebewilderness · 05/06/2018 22:27

They view it as appropriate to exclude males from a women's rape crisis center. That is the view that is being called odious.
They did not always exclude males from staffing. Nixon taught them why it is essential to exclude males.

TerfAndSerf · 05/06/2018 22:49

Please. Do enlighten us.

How does a rape crisis centre cause offence?

SuitedandBooted · 05/06/2018 23:13

I think this deserves a wider audience.

How about moving it to AIBU?

Waddlelikeapenguin · 05/06/2018 23:50

I'm not even surprised to read this. Vile vile man.

Who's a what now?

Even if you disagree with the basic principle that men can't turn into women, why does it matter that there is one rape crisis place that doesn't allow male-sexed people to volunteer? There are masses of male/trans friendly crisis services in BC. Flipping tons.

Ereshkigal · 06/06/2018 00:00

why does it matter that there is one rape crisis place that doesn't allow male-sexed people to volunteer?

Because it matters that such a thing is allowed to exist. That existence is experienced as a narcissistic injury.
