From your link.

Does 'any theory' in the following quote include theories that involve
logics with every MV-algebra as their truth set and every set of
syntactical axioms or is this just any theory using binary logic?
Could Russell have proved anything in the context of even
paraconsistent logic, not to mention all non-classical logics (such as
those that were revealed in the 50's or so), using what he might have
known at his time?

As was discovered by Russell, any theory that contains the
Comprehension Schema is inconsistent. For putting 'y not-element y'
for A in the Comprehension Schema and instantiating the existential
quantifier to an arbitrary such object 'r' gives:....
