He was a philosopher-king who kept a modest court and worked tirelessly to improve the lives of his people.
>He drained swamps, populated Prussia with a thousand new villages, and made food plentiful for the German population.
>He sought to uplift his subjects, patronizing the German arts and fostering a cultural growth which would later bloom into the rich German culture that we all know today.
>He was a fantastic military commander: together with Russia, he partitioned Poland, and when all of Europe was against him in the seven years war, he fought them off against almost impossible odds.
>He revolutionized the Prussian military and made it into the war machine that would make fools out of other European nations for well over a century.
>He promoted a meritocracy which allowed the most talented Germans to rise to the top of the bureaucracy, which benefited all of Germany.
>On top of all this, he was a gifted flutist and composer to boot: he wrote over 100 flute sonatas, and four symphonies to boot. Even today, his music stands on his own, and he accomplished this while running the greatest success story of Europe at the time.
He was also a homosexual.
Still think the LGBT community shouldn't be allowed to marry?
Let them have civil unions for tax and legal purposes, but leave "marriage" for the church to decide.

Recent analysis of his court bills indicate that his modesty is largely a myth.

He thinks that a head of state not being romantically inclined naturally means he must've been gay.

>In the 1750s Voltaire began writing his Mémoires.[168] The manuscript was stolen and a pirate copy was published in Amsterdam in 1784 as The Private Life of the King of Prussia.[169] In it, Voltaire explicitly detailed Frederick's homosexuality and the circle surrounding him.

This. And besides that, faggotry are intolerable because they never shut the fuck up about being faggotry. It's never ending obnoxious streams of innuendo and reminders incase anyone forgot in the last five minutes about their lust for manshit on their dicks. It's a mental illness, this behavior.

Friend rich wasn't gay, he was just redpilled, aka the most notorious FRAUENHASSER (mysotinist) of German history ) and most likely a over 40lvl wizard Many of the brilliant minds of humanity were Newton, as well as the military genuis marshall Suvorov

Voltaire also had a notorious habit of engaging in bitter arguments with his friends. It's a slightly more compelling piece of evidence, but what else is there really? Vague quotes that could mean just what they say? A childhood friend he was too attached to or a poem he wrote to an Italian aide that may possibly have been gay if you squint very hard while looking at it? The problem I have with all this kind of nonsense is that other than the constant anachronisms and tea-leaves reading, it's almost always with rulers like Richard I, Charles XII or Fritz who spent their entire lives at war (Charles was fifteen when war broke out and he died in combat). Does it really seem likely that they would've had the time or the inclination for actual homosexual relationships?
