I believe keynes was a homo, but I am not surprised by this new stuff either.

[fieldmarshaldj]

His economic theories were gay, too.

[Mr. K]

And his economic theories were pure idiocy

[Reily]

Hasn’t this been known for a very long time?

[Steely Tom]

I think this was well known in certain circles. Not the first time I’ve heard it.

Kiddy-diddling seems to be a well-established perq within the upper levels of the elites who think they run the world. It’s a tradition that goes back to pre-Christian days.

Seems to be the first thing certain people think of, when they win the power lottery in whatever culture spawned them.

The social and economic radicals at the turn of the 20th Century, whose ideas are now dogma in the university and leftist life, were amoral in every facet of life.

[Sirius Lee]

If you’ve read The Economists in the past decade you would swear most of the authors have something else in common with keynes besides a love for bad economic theory.

[BeauBo]

Not a pedophile (heterosexual), but a pederast (homosexual).

[Rashputin]

I’ve read this about him before but I guess it wasn’t a fact until someone blessed by the University Priesthood wrote it.

[Chauncey Gardiner]

There was a reason his policies appealed to obama

This information about Keynes’ pedophilia should be the final blow to his discredited Keynesian Economics that had its latest run after the economic collapse of 2008.

[Honest Nigerian]

Well, I wonder if Nixon was aware of this when he said, “ We’re all Keynesian now.”

Keynes's early romantic and sexual relationships were exclusively with men.[138] Keynes had been in relationships while at Eton and Cambridge; significant among these early partners were Dilly Knox and Daniel Macmillan.[17][139] Keynes was open about his affairs, and from 1901 to 1915 kept separate diaries in which he tabulated his many sexual encounters.[140][141] Keynes's relationship and later close friendship with Macmillan was to be fortunate, as Macmillan's company first published his tract Economic Consequences of the Peace.[142] Attitudes in the Bloomsbury Group, in which Keynes was avidly involved, were relaxed about homosexuality. Keynes, together with writer Lytton Strachey, had reshaped the Victorian attitudes of the Cambridge Apostles: "since [their] time, homosexual relations among the members were for a time common", wrote Bertrand Russell.[143] The artist Duncan Grant, whom he met in 1908, was one of Keynes's great loves. Keynes was also involved with Lytton Strachey,[138] though they were for the most part love rivals, not lovers. Keynes had won the affections of Arthur Hobhouse,[144] and as with Grant, fell out with a jealous Strachey for it.[145] Strachey had previously found himself put off by Keynes, not least because of his manner of "treat[ing] his love affairs statistically".[146] Political opponents have used Keynes's sexuality to attack his academic work.[147] One line of attack held that he was uninterested in the long term ramifications of his theories because he had no children.[147] Keynes's friends in the Bloomsbury Group were initially surprised when, in his later years, he began pursuing affairs with women,[148] demonstrating himself to be bisexual.[149] Ray Costelloe (who would later marry Oliver Strachey) was an early heterosexual interest of Keynes.[150] In 1906, Keynes had written of this infatuation that, "I seem to have fallen in love with Ray a little bit, but as she isn't male I haven't [been] able to think of any suitable steps to take. . .He was an outspoken campaigner for reform of the laws against homosexuality."[151] John Maynard Keynes
