Yes, but it killed more Americans than the viet cong so maybe our government should’ve acknowledged it as a problem before several years of it decimating our population
Also we were the first country to have an outbreak and we’re the medical research powerhouse of the industrial world, especially in the 1980s. But instead of that our president told his surgeon general not to acknowledge it. When asked about the disease killing homosexuals Ronald Reagan laughed.
And here in America it was a perk in their eyes when it started plaguing hetero black folks. They only started really caring when it hit a white child.
They used to celebrate our dead. And that’s why I have no shame celebrating the deaths of Limbaugh and Reagan.
They only started really caring when it hit a white child.
They didn’t give a shit about that white child either for quite a while. Ryan White was treated like a pariah by basically all of Kokomo as if he was going to give the entire town AIDS. It was disgusting. People only started caring when it was really clear he was dying and they suddenly grew a conscience about it.
Not that this made them any less racist or homophobic.
Before he died, Rock Hudson asked the Reagan’s for help getting access to experimental medical treatment. They had been friends. They essentially ghosted him after his diagnosis.
Reagan didn’t bother forming an investigation committee until 1987, and he literally appointed people like the head of fucking AMWAY to head it.
They didn’t design the virus to kill us, but they found it a happy development. Go back and watch Tammy Faye talking to an AIDS patient in the 80s - the fact that she said she was willing to be in the same room with him was a big deal (he came in through TV because he was too sick to be on set).
Didn’t just affect the US though.

Oh absolutely. Governments around the world were happy to let it kill gay people.

Fuck rush and ronald, I’m glad they are 6 feet under, the rest of the right wing shit stains too. A bane on humanity is what they are.
