News Roundup — A play about PrEP; “HIV” activists “freaked out” by election results; More Kennedy panic

Do they have reason to be “freaked out?”

This will be a short news roundup, and likely the last time I will discuss the 2024 U.S. presidential election for the foreseeable future.

Let’s get the most ridiculous story out of the way first. In Florida, there is a new propaganda piece play running for seventeen performances about PrEP.

PrEP'd - A World Premiere Play

PrEP’d is a new play by Ronnie Larsen informed by a series of interviews conducted with gay men in South Florida and Ronnie’s own firsthand experiences. PrEP’d tells the story of Jerry Withers, a gay man, whose sexual development is stifled by the trauma of living through - and surviving - the AIDS epidemic of the 1980s. Despite the advent of PrEP to prevent the sexual transmission of HIV, Jerry continues to struggle negotiating sex and love in a modern and extremely complicated world.

I feel sick. Not as sick as those unfortunate enough to be “retained in care” on PrEP, though, I imagine. This is so incredibly condescending to the gay community. It’s almost impressive how much of a scam PrEP is—if you’re gay or Black, we want you “retained in care” on effectively the same toxic drugs, and subject to regular medical testing, whether you have any trace of “HIV” related genetic material or not. It’s a neat trick, and it’s also evil and sick, especially when you consider the fact that AIDS activists routinely try to cover up the massive toxicities of “anti-HIV” medications.

Moving on. Apparently, “HIV” advocates are “freaked out” about the election results. The spin begins. Spoiler: it’s RFK Jr that worries them. I’ll only feature two articles on this topic; this first one is interesting because it actually does mention RFK’s questioning of HIV AIDS—most activists try to pretend it doesn’t exist and that it didn’t take up a huge portion of his book on Fauci.

Freaked Out by the U.S. Election Results? These Longtime HIV Advocates Have Guidance for the Community

Among those millions of voters were many people who make up the U.S. network of HIV/AIDS activists, advocates, and service providers—many of whom are also long-term survivors of HIV. As advocates for some of the most vulnerable groups in the U.S.—including people living with HIV/AIDS, older people, LGBTQ people (especially transgender and nonbinary ones), and immigrants, as well as low-income people of all races in Southern states with inadequate health care safety nets. And one of their first feelings upon seeing the upcoming political landscape in Washington, D.C., was sheer dread.

Sheer dread? Do these people not recall that, in his first term, Trump basically handed control of the country to Anthony Fauci for almost a year? And why are “trans and non binary” individuals being singled out? It’s weird. Clearly, the addition of RFK Jr to the Trump team has a lot to do with their “sheer dread,” though most of the panic pieces I’ve seen don’t even mention RFK’s statements about HIV AIDS. This one is an exception:

Returning to the White House, after all, would be a man […] who appears to be seriously considering putting Robert F. Kennedy Jr.—a prominent anti-vaccine voice who also has suggested that HIV does not cause AIDS, a common AIDS denialist myth—in charge of public health.

Considering the absolute chokehold the “HIV” hypothesis has on the AIDS epidemic (which realistically includes the 3 million Americans suffering from chronic fatigue syndrome), despite absolutely no evidence to support it other than many different lucrative, toxic drugs that in some cases appear to “work,” perhaps it is time to consider the very real epidemic of HIV-negative AIDS. After all, its very existence suggests that “HIV” is not necessary for AIDS. (It is neither sufficient for AIDS, as we have discussed, which basically falsifies the HIV AIDS story right there.)

Let’s see if these “HIV” advocates have any wisdom to impart. I can’t find much exciting here; mostly the advice is to “band together” in the “HIV” community, although there are hints at possible protests:

A part of that work, advocates say, will be figuring out what kind of activism or advocacy—what mix of tactics—will be best to mitigate the worst of the upcoming damage and continue to advocate for a progressive agenda. Trump’s 2016 win and subsequent term in office unleashed a raging torrent of resistance and street activism nationwide, such as the first Women’s March, the civil disobedience mass arrests in Washington, D.C. to save Obamacare in 2017, and the Black Lives Matter protests of 2020.

[…]

“A healthy movement needs both outsider and insider tactics,” Harrington says. “We’re going to need demonstrations, because you can use them to speak to lawmakers through the media and the public, and that sometimes brings some of them to the table.” Public protests are also important, he says, because “they generate solidarity among us.”

We’ll see if such protests eventuate. Things have the potential to get very interesting.

Here is another panic piece about RFK; this time, there is no word about HIV AIDS:

If Trump puts RFK Jr in charge of health, get ready for a distorted reality, where global health suffers

The term “global health” is at once both meaningless and problematic. It seems the real worry here is about RFK’s stance on vaccines, as well as—wait for it—concern about water fluoridation. That’s been controversial since at least the 1990s and probably before.

If Kennedy is to be the health czar of the Trump presidency, his platform to recruit Americans to his anti-science agenda would be considerably enhanced. The result? The very real threat of worsening the public’s health.

Outbreaks of vaccine-preventable infections, such as measles, will rise.

Many Americans also grew up with fluoridated water and have not witnessed the impacts of widespread dental caries (tooth decay). So, Kennedy may be well placed to convince enough of the American people that fluoridated water is dangerous, and that fluoride should be an individual’s choice.

Yes, they’re definitely worried about vaccines. Check out their spin on the Covid vaccines, which is laughable at this point. Also, Operation Warp Speed was Trump’s mandate; have we forgotten that the president-elect is by no means an anti-vaxxer?

One of the outstanding achievements of the previous Trump presidency was Operation Warp Speed, which enabled the development, testing and mass production of COVID vaccines at unprecedented speed, saving many millions of lives around the world.

I can’t argue with the “unprecedented speed”—that turned out to be a disaster, to the point that Canada is now euthanizing vaccine-injured individuals. Nothing to see here.

Well, I think that pretty much paints the picture of where we’re at right now. It will be interesting to see what, if anything, RFK actually does in a Trump administration. Given that we have two and a half months before we find out, I’m not making any bets, and I won’t be discussing the election results much moving forward—I think we’re all collectively exhausted, no matter how we voted or even if we live in the United States.

As always, let me know what you think in the comments! Regular content shall resume moving forward.
