! This is a 2006 implementation of the game and its questions are extremely out of date; it stopped being updated in 2009 due to a change of the Wikipedia API. A much better daily puzzle version was created in 2024 by Matthew at catfishing.net.

Catfishing is a guessing game built from Wikipedia articles. Given a list of all the categories that an article belongs to, you must guess which article it's describing.

Here's your first one:

Binational solution proponentsAmerican anti-war activistsAmerican atheists
American linguistsAmerican academicsG7 Welcoming Committee Records
RationalistsMassachusetts Institute of Technology facultyAmerican anarchists
Cognitive scientistsJewish scientistsAmerican socialists

SyntacticiansPhilosophers of mindFellows of the Royal Society of Canada
University of Pennsylvania alumniPeople from PhiladelphiaAnti-Zionists
Living peopleJewish American writers20th century philosophers
American anti-Vietnam War activists1928 births 
What person or place or thing belongs to all of these categories?
