"Its not a surprise people thought of it as a gay disease.

It is not strictly a 'gay disease' - it is a lifestyle disease that corresponds with gay lifestyle (multiple STD and treatments mean that they have poor immune systems), paired with popper use, they are destined to get it as well as with IV drug users for the exact same reason (poor immune system).

Outside of these people or people having sex with guys on the 'down low' there really is no transmission as even blood transfusions have been HIV free for decades. Also, I should note it is a GAY MENS disease as opposed to a LESBIAN disease as the lesbian lifestyle (less partners and drug use) have almost no HIV transmission.

This is just another bungled Anthony Fauci disease response - much like how they stopped talking about Monkey Pox being a gay man's disease after kids and dogs started to test positive...they definitely don't want the general public putting 2+2 together on that one.

I am 100% for forcing Roberts to resign in 2025 for lying about his stance on this topic previously. Hopefully you will remain committed to your outrage and also call for his ouster.

Well, we could do it now - no way the Dems would be able to push through a confirmation before Jan 2025 so have at it. I think the Democrats will be VERY hesitant to actually do that because it is more likely you get another Alito rather than a compromise GOP like Roberts, Kavanaugh or ACB.

In 2021, ~80% of cases were either gay dudes, 71 - 73% (men who have sex with men or are transgender) or IV drug users, 7%.

Lesbians are more or less ZERO - it is not even a category that is tracked. Women do get HIV through 'hetero' contact but this is kinda lying as they are most likely to catch it from men on the downlow or that are 'prison gay'.

There clearly still is still a stigma effect to this which is why the groups most anti-gay (Blacks and Hispanics) continue to be over represented in new HIV infections while whites are decreasing.

"Time to expand the SC to 11 or 13. Things have gotten out of hand.

You sure you want to do that chief? Not a single Dem nominee will make it on the court prior to the 2024 election so the person appointing the expanded court in 2025 will be Trump packing on a few actual hardcore right wingers so we no longer have to tolerate the weak hands like Roberts or ACB. I am all for it. We agree to permanently cap the number at 13 and Trump gets another 4 right off the bat.

Yeah, black gay dudes in the south - ever been to Atlanta? It is just as degenerate as San Francisco - just with less human poop on the sidewalks.
