Jean-François Gariépy (born 1984) is a Canadian white supremacist,[3][4][5] former neuroscience researcher,[6] and alt-right[7][better source needed] political commentator.
Gariépy told The Daily Beast he left Duke University for Canada because "he'd grown disillusioned with the scientific community.
[19] At Warski Live, Gariépy introduced topics like scientific racism by discussing ethnic differences with guests like Richard B. Spencer, Millennial Woes, Andrew Anglin and Sargon of Akkad.
[12][20] At Warski Live, Gariépy gained notoriety among the alt-right as a moderator of the so-called "YouTube Bloodsports" where two or more mainly right-wing guests engage in often highly abusive discussions on politics.
The channel has, among many others, featured white nationalists and alt-right figures like Richard B. Spencer, David Duke, Mike Peinovich, Nick Fuentes,[22] Greg Johnson,[21] in addition to anti-transgender activist Posie Parker.
Not long after the custody battle, he became embroiled in a guardianship lawsuit over a 19-year-old he was claiming as his fiancée that a doctor said had autism and "the social and mental maturity of a 10 or 11-year-old child.” Gariépy had made contact with the woman online before she decided to travel to North Carolina to see him in July of 2016 and had sex.
