I think Adam Lanza was simply picking children as the best targets to piss off the lowest IQ religious morons, gynocentrists and pedophobes possible, the ones he despised the most, most likely, at least from all I can see.
He was severely autistic which comes with an increased focus on logic, order, systemization, which is why he arrived at those viewpoints about pedophilia and pedosexuality to begin with, he's not too different from someone like me or mrz or boojies on here who also posts about things pertaining to this topic and is then accused of being a pedophile just for being interested in the topic.
Age of consent is a belief based on social mimicry, i.e monkey see, monkey do.
Imitation is a typical part of development for neurotypical children. Autistic kids also mimic those around them but the process may take more time.

It's something neurotypicals are more likely to engage in than autistics, that's why they believe in certain gods over others, and also why they believe in certain ages of consent over others, despite there being really no evidence for the intrinsic harmfulness of sex at any particular age.
By which, to autistically go into detail I just mean that there is absolutely zero evidence for the intrinsic harmfulness of the act child sex if you logically think it through step by step – as in, if a child discovers sexual pleasure on their own, perhaps by humping different objects like pillows, now wants to receive it by rubbing themselves against a pedophile’s leg, the child has not been manipulated, blackmailed, forced by the pedophile, and there is nothing done to the child that it most likely wouldn’t want, such as anal penetration, STD exchange or impregnation – then we have zero evidence that this would be harmful unless these children come in touch with societal expectations that such behavior is wrong, the pedophobes just assume the sex itself to be harmful based on their feelings of disgust.
And appealing to these social consequences that the bigots themselves are creating as some kind of argument is just an argumentum ad baculum fallacy, appealing to a threat, i.e don't be a homo or I'll beat you, therefore being a homo is bad. Don't be a pedo or I'll beat you in front of the child, therefore being a pedo is bad. Not an argument, the burden of proof is basically on the pedophobe to prove that child sex is intrinsically harmful. Proving correlation between child sex and depression is not proof of causation, I could make a study that shows homosexuals are more likely to be depressed in Saudi Arabia, doesn't prove it's because of the sex they're having.
Adam Lanza as someone more severely autistic was easily able to see through such non-sensical social taboos, he hated this whole process of enculturation and domestication and referred to it as the rape of civilization in one post.
He likely also didn't believe in the criminalization of child porn viewership, it is inconsistent to only arrest pedophiles for jerking off to child porn but not all sorts of other people jerking off to gore videos which are legally available all over the internet, he also corrected someone who used the word pedophilia slightly inefficiently.
That's similar to how I think which I think can again be be attributed to the similarly high levels of autism, we don't use pedophilia as a social definition, i.e anyone attracted to something under our culturally acceptable age, but attraction to prepubescence. Can't find the picture right now anymore but here's the quote:
In general, Adam Lanza also lacked other beliefs that neurotypicals acquire through socialization, he ate a plant based diet, probably because he understood that the capacity to suffer is what makes it important for us to avoid suffering, not whether or not you are non-human or human animal, obviously a braindead human doesn't care about not getting stabbed in the throat because they're not sentient, cows are sentient organisms.

I think all in all, non-autistic people are just misinterpreting someone who is severely autistic here to say and mean things that he didn't say and mean, as it often happens, in reality Adam Lanza was simply done with their irrationality and couldn't take it anymore at some point, he certainly took philosophy more seriously than the average retard.
So maybe he was mildly non-exclusively pedophilic, maybe he wasn't, that certainly wouldn't be some kind of exceptional personality trait, I think he was first and foremost disgusted by normal humans and couldn't stand living on the same planet as them anymore. Of course they will never accept this because they're completely psychotic and delusional, they'll just virtue signal and interpret some irrational non-sense into it based on their common human social intuitions and gut instincts, then say he was mentally ill and should have received help just for being more rational and consistent than they are, but the simple truth is autists snap because average humans are mostly fucking retarded and unable to learn anything outside of what they have been enculturated into, that's exactly what he criticized.
