I had to use Google Lens because I can't read this post:

Until my dying day I will look back with pride that I found the courage to come face to face

in battle against the spectre which for time immemorial has been injecting poison into me and into men of my nature. Many have been driven to suicide

because all their happiness in life was tainted. Indeed, I am proud that I found the courage to deal the initial blow to the hydra of public contempt.

Karl Heinrich Ulrichs (1870s) "First (openly) gay man in world history"
