Anti-LGBTQ+ activist Corey DeAngelis has apparently admitted to appearing on a gay adult website, a week after numerous sites pointed out that he appeared as “Seth Rose” on the gay adult video site GayHoopla.

DeAngelis, who wrote The Parent Revolution: Save Your Children from the Radicals Ruining Our Schools — a 2024 book endorsed by former President Donald Trump — went silent on social media after multiple outlets pointed out his striking resemblance to Rose, who appeared in videos titled “Jerk-Off Race” and “Awesome Star Compilation!” had occurred. How many strokes before you cum?!”

In his first post on Seized the opportunity to grow and tried to turn this experience into something positive.”

“I was a victim of bad decisions and bad influences,” he continued. “I have used this experience as the fuel that drives me to protect young people from being put in the same position I was in and to help parents protect their children.” I will never stop fighting for what is right battle.”

DeAngelis subsequently published no fewer than 98 re-posts from various right-wing allies and commentators praising his work as a so-called “school choice” advocate, someone who supports redirecting taxpayer dollars to fund private, for-profit schools, a prime target of anti- LGBTQ+ Christian Conservatives. Such schools can reject students for any reason and operate largely without government oversight to ensure they comply with federal anti-discrimination laws.

Despite DeAngelis' apparent admission, the American Federation for Children (AFC), the “school choice” organization where he once served as a senior fellow, has still completely deleted his existence from its website and deleted his bio page and previous articles.

In a recent appearance on Fox News, DeAngelis claimed that public schools “focus more on LGBTs than ABCs,” a statement that echoes the right's claim that admitting LGBTQ+ students and combating anti-LGBTQ+ bullying in schools deteriorate the quality of public education.

“It’s just propaganda and a way for the left to control the minds of other people’s children,” he said.

In a September 16 post on X, DeAngelis shared an image showing the “radical left's weekly lesson plan for 2024.” The plan included “mandatory pronoun recognition,” “drag queen story time,” and “boys participating in girls’ sports.”

“School choice defeats the woke mind virus,” DeAngelis wrote.

The lawyer noted that DeAngelis reportedly did not attend the “Rescue The Republic” conference in Washington, DC last Sunday, where he was scheduled to speak alongside other anti-LGBTQ+ extremists such as Moms for Liberty co-founder Tiffany Justice, Charlie Kirk and Jordan Peterson.
