Just for a little context, this program was started under W. Bush and is widely seen as his primary or sole positive legacy.
I can’t prove this is designed to aggravate the Bushes and their supporters. But who can seriously say that Trump and his henchmen wouldn’t be that petty?
There was literally an interview with Bill Gates published yesterday where he was saying he was optimistic since Trump appeared to be listening when he discussed the global AIDS pandemic over dinner.
So much for that I guess.
Yeah, he was listening, he listened and listened well. And what he learned is that there are sick people wasting resources he can take away.
So how do you justify this villainy? Just revoking anything that helps
Their justification is almost certainly as simple as “only gays and addicts get this, let it kill them”
Conservatism is sick, but elites like it.
They will become even richer due to the fact that they will reduce expenses on social development, will steal resources. But ‘regular people’ will not revolt against them, because “yes, they are right, fuck minorities, science and liberalism is bad”, i.e. they already are ignorant (and they embrace it!) and uneducated.
It’s like in any other authoritarian LMIC country, just fucking Middle Ages.
Capitalists see almost everyone, ie poors, the same way conservatives see their out groups: less than human.
Capitalism is good if there are regulations in place and rule of law is strong.
Trump has literally believed his whole life (and he was taught to fervently believe this by his own father) that any sort of illness is a sign of weakness.
So, in his eyes, better to let these weak people die than waste resources on them.
But I mean what you expect from this freaks syphilis addled brain.
any sort of illness is a sign of weakness
They think in poor countries exactly like that
True, but didn’t both of his parent die from pneumonia?
…and Donald used his fathers “weakness” to swindle him.
If you want to eradicate an illness, the best way, according to fascists ,is simply act as if it didn’t exist.
It’s easy to rule uneducated people
They’re freezing 99.9% of domestic and foreign assistance. This is only one specific part of what had been halted.
The idea is to strangle the government and end anything that might keep a single dollar out of the hands of the wealthy.
You don’t. There is no justification.
Trump Admin Orders: Die. Just die.
This is one of the things everyone agrees on, what the fuck is he thinking?
Death Cult.
Nazis were and still are a Death Cult.
Unfortunately homophones think that AIDS is God’s curse for being gay, so they shouldn’t help victims or try to cure it. It’s “God’s will.”
Pedant here:
A homophone is a number of words that sound the same.Homophones think that AIDS helps people
It’s especially funny since HIV now affects more straight people than gay people
Apparently some people think it’s an abortion thing too?
He must be upset that Covid19 didn’t kill enough people under his watch and wants to try and get a better record.
Bird flu will definitely do that.
We’ve got a bully in the White House and all his little buttkissers are doing his bidding.
Politically, this was a key proponent in creating and managing difficult alliances with African, Asian, and South American countries. China, and potentially Russia and India have been waiting for this splinter. They will flood the markets with cheaper generics and people will adapt. This will be a power play America will never recover.
Oh my god. This guy plans on ruining the world via an AIDS pandemic! WTF!
Making aids great again! So much winning
Just pure evil.
