i feel so much for my one irl friend he's got hiv & ppl are just as shitty to him as they've always been about that disease in particular. anyone who says that faded away is a fool hes coming to stay with me because his job fired him in a round about bs way for have it and his coworkers were terrible to him about it & the roommate he was living with was treating him shitty as hell bc he's a gay man with it im just thankful im in a position where I can give some safe space when overwise he wouldn't have anywhere to go. all because ppl still can't get it out of their heads that it's some boogeyman moral failing disease when it's not and never has been get fucking normal about people with hiv im begging because nobody should be put in the position of being so thoroughly shamed for just living with a disease
#like bigoted sentiments surrounding it have never gone away that didn't just disappear bc treatment became effective#hes been treated like shit since he was diagnosed#thats why hiv advocacy is just as important as it was in the 80s & 90s bc unfortunately things like that aren't unique to him
