Strange Biographies of LGBT 'Activists'
• Simone de Beauvoir, lesbian feminist superhero second to none, of "every woman is homosexual by nature" fame, was one of the signers of the 1977 petition against age of consent laws demanding "recognition of the right of children and adolescents to maintain relationships with persons of their choice". It was in reaction to three men being taken to trial for grooming boys and girls under 15 years of age, but allegedly "without violence"
• Michel Foucault, practically the Pope for LGBT dogma, also advocated for eliminating the age of consent laws and called restricting kids from having sex with adults as "an abuse" "[assuming] that a child is incapable of explaining what happened and was incapable of giving his consent are two abuses that are intolerable, quite unacceptable”
• Harvey Milk, the first openly gay elected official in California, of Oscar winning biopic about his life, and has a Navy ship named after him. Milk took advantage of his work with at-risk youth to groom at least one 16yo runaway Jack Galen McKinley who had substance abuse problems and lived on the streets of NYC (where the age of consent was 17). Jack would end up committing suicide years later.
• Gayle Rubin, "queer intellectual" author of Thinking Sex, widely regarded as a founding text of Gay/Lesbian studies and Queer Theory. Defends "boy lovers" and their "erotic orientation". In her own words: “Like communists and homosexuals of the 1950's, boy-lovers are so stigmatized that it is difficult to find defenders of their civil liberties, let alone their erotic orientation. Consequently, the police have feasted on them. Local police, the FBI, and watchdog postal inspectors have joined to build a huge apparatus whose sole aim is to wipe out the community of men who love underaged youth. In twenty years or so, when some of the smoke has cleared, it will be much easier to show that these men have been the victims of a savage and undeserved witchhunt. A lot of people will be embarrassed by their collaboration with this persecution, but it will be too late to do much good for those men who have spent their lives in prison.”
• Judith Butler, arguably the most influential "gender theorist", wrote about "non-traumatic incest" that becomes traumatic due to the socially constructed stigma associated with it. She sees incest taboo as working towards heteronormativity and asks that prohibition on incest be rethought to prevent the "violation" that is heteronormativity.
• John Money, early luminary of modern "sexology" and the study of gender identity, advocated for "gender affirming" genital mutilation back in the 60s, truly a trailblazer. He's the doctor behind the infamous case of David Reimer, a victim of a botched circumcision and subsequent Mengele-style sexual corruption that led David to suicide after decades of suffering. This were Money's views on boys having sex with adults: “If I were to see the case of a boy aged ten or eleven who's intensely erotically attracted toward a man in his twenties or thirties, if the relationship is totally mutual, and the bonding is genuinely totally mutual ... then I would not call it pathological in any way”
• Magnus Hirschfeld founder in 1897 of an institute deemed "the first advocacy for homosexual and transgender rights", considered homosexual "ephebophiles" as something common and nonpathological
• Henry "Harry" Hay, pioneer in US Gay rights, founder of the first sustained gay rights group in the US. Supported NAMBLA (North American Man/Boy Love Association) and marched in the pride parade with a "NAMBLA walks with me" shirt
• David Thorstad another pioneer in US Gay activism, in the 1970s was president of both the Gay Activists Alliance, and Coalition for Lesbian and Gay Rights in NYC. He founded the North American Man/Boy Love Association (NAMBLA). He compared being a pederast in the US with being "a Jew in Nazi Germany". In his own words: “Pederasty is probably historically the most common form of homosexuality in Western culture, as well as many other cultures”

• Pat Califia, renowned trans essayist on LGBT matter: "any child old enough to decide whether or not she or he wants to eat spinach, play with trucks or wear shoes is old enough to decide whether or not she or he wants to run around naked in the sun, masturbate sit in somebody's lap or engage in sexual activity."
• Guy Hocquenghem, French gay rights activist, "queer theorist" and novelist, another signer of the age of consent abolishing manifesto. His own words: "This notion of consent is a trap, in any case. What is sure is that the legal form of an intersexual consent is nonsense. No one signs a contract before making love... When we say that children are 'consenting' in these cases, all we intend to say is this: in any case, there was no violence, or organized manipulation in order to wrench out of them affective or erotic relations."
• Camille Paglia, author of Sexual Personae and prominent LGBT historian. A militant lesbian feminist, allegedly the first openly lesbian woman at Yale. Supporter of NAMBLA and "erotic fondling with any age.". Her own words: “These days, especially in America, boy-love is not only scandalous and criminal, but somehow in bad taste. On the evening news, one sees handcuffed teachers, priests and Boy Scout leaders hustled into police vans. Therapists call them maladjusted, emotionally immature. But beauty has its own laws, inconsistent with Christian morality. As a woman, I feel free to protest that men today are pilloried for something that was rational and honourable in Greece at the height of its civilization”

• John D. Stamford, founding father of the LGBT press with his first of it's kind massively successful magazine Spartacus International Gay Guide first published in 1970 and still operation as an app 51 years later. An active "boy-lover", Stamford also run Pan: a magazine about boy-love later renamed Paedo Alert News in which he promoted the "Paedophile Information Exchange", a British organization dedicated to promoting paedophilia. Stamford died in custody awaiting trial for publishing information aiding paedophiles to solicit child prostitutes in third world countries.
• Ian Dunn, founder in 1969 of the Scottish Minorities Group, the country's first LGBT rights organization, still operational under the name Outright Scotland. He helped establish Britain's first gay newspaper, Gay News, and worked as an editor for Gay Scotland magazine. Dunn co-founded the Paedophile Information Exchange (UK's own NAMBLA). A room at the Glasgow LGBT Centre was named after him. At his funeral, a young man claimed to have been raped by him at age 15, and stated he was attending "to make sure he was dead". Dunn's own words: “I am not one of those homosexuals who get cross or nervous when the subject of love between men and boys is raised”
• Allen Ginsberg, renowned gay poet recipient of the 1974 National Book Award and 1986 Poetry Society of America's Frost Medal. His work prominently features graphic homosexuality and was the subject of milestone court cases on obscenity laws and free speech, catapulting Ginsberg to legend status in LGBT literature. He was a member of NAMBLA and read a "graphic ode to youth" in a documentary about the organization.
• Alfred Kinsey, prominent sexologist and founder of the Kinsey Institute for Research in Sex, Gender, and Reproduction which was the academic source cited by the Sexuality Information and Education Council (SIECUS) to design Sex Ed policy for schools. Creator of the Kinsey scale of sexual orientation and recipient of funding from the Rockefeller Foundation. His scientific malpractices are too many to mention: from faking data, to having sex with test subjects and students, to using paedophiles as a source of information on pre-adolescent orgasms. A 2016 review stated that Kinsey, a bisexual, likely overestimated the frequencies of non-heterosexual attractions in his reports.

meta-analysis of RCTs finds that ritalin / methylphenidate / amphetamines are not shown to have any significant effect on working memory after correcting for publication bias.
Amphetamines of course decrease sleepiness, and increase motivation, energy, and focus; with working memory as a prime basis of g, this is basically causal evidence that these things do not influence intelligence.

“Race and ethnicity are now more important than either family income or parental education in accounting for [SAT] score differences.” White and Asian students from the poorest families perform at same level as black students from the wealthiest families.
