Republicans are just the absolute lowest form of life
Mocking the shit out of the right wing small penis brigade also helps
Truly disgusting. It’s homophobia mixed with lies that allowed hiv to kill as many as it did. Many queer people died because no one cared about them, and many straight people died because they were told it was a disease for gay people.
>MAGA social media influencers are spreading a lie from a “parody” account on X claiming that gay Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg is HIV-positive.
>*The lie originated from an October 1 post by the X account Breaking 911. The post simply read, “BREAKING: Pete Buttigieg reveals that he is HIV-positive.” The post didn’t link to or mention any sources. The account’s bio says, “The king of the gays. Parody artist. If you fell for my bait, you owe me eight dollars.”*
>***The account’s Buttigieg post was also shared by Stew Peters, a right-wing influencer who has over a million and a half followers across various platforms. The Anti-Defamation League*** [***describes***](https://www.adl.org/glossary/stew-peters) ***Peters as “an antisemitic conspiracy theorist” who “regularly promotes anti-LGBTQ+ and white supremacist beliefs on his show and social media” and “has engaged in Holocaust denial.” He*** [***is currently being sued for claiming that a gay father raped his own children***](https://www.lgbtqnation.com/2024/08/a-right-wing-influencer-accused-a-gay-dad-of-raping-his-own-kids-now-hell-face-the-music/)***.***
>*Chasten Buttigieg reposted Miller’s message on X and commented, “This is not how you win hearts and minds. Stay the course, folks. Keep telling your stories, having the hard conversations, and knocking doors. They’ve got lies, we’ve got momentum.”*
But don’t call Republicans bigots, because it hurts their feelings! I mean, you have to respect their religious freedom to enact laws that genocide LGBTQIA+ people. It’s “religious freedom”, after all!
Oh FFS. Why????
These idiots don’t remember the devastation that was the HIV/AIDS crisis of the 80’s and 90’s which took out many many young LGBTQ+ people before their time. And many older LGBTQ+ people who lived through that time knows how devastating of a disease it can be.
Disgusting.
I think no matter the political side of a person such lies should never be formulated, especially knowing the history of the disease, how it has hurt people and cause so much pain in certain communities. People are much more than their diseases or conditions
I would like to contribute nothing to this thread except to say that Chasten Buttigieg is awesome. I really, really like that guy.
And whose fucking business is it if he were?
These people are awful.
There is zero things they wont degrade to. Jesus
These….people…aren’t worthy to tie Pete’s shoes!
Fuckin low
MAGA = Russian propaganda
It wouldn’t matter if he was or not. Gross smear.
Pretty crazy coming from people following a guy who had his wife killed by being thrown down the stairs and buried at a golf course
I would love for this to become the largest defamation lawsuit in American history.
This is a reminder that more than a few MAGA influencers were recently found to be *heavily* funded by Russian money.
These people are just trash.
So, they’re spreading more lies about people who didn’t do anything wrong again?
The correct answer is probably “who cares if he is?” There is enough stigma around people living with it.
Silly thing to care about. MAGAs have lead poisoned brains.
Jesus just start suing these right wing pathological liars for defamation
MAGA is vile.
Are these the magats you later hear about in the men’s bathroom of the Minneapolis airport?
This is a perfect example of what type of people belong to the GQP. They’re a despicable bunch who proudly express hate & contempt for all things Democrat.
A normal person would see the constant lies from trump and maga and think hmm they sure do lie a lot why should I actually believe anything anything they say?
That is lawsuit territory.
Yeah, they care because AIDS just transmits to you through the air if you don’t mask or social distance and everyone will get it. Oh wait, that was COVID, oh wait, COVID wasn’t real. IF this was true why do they even care unless they plan to have sex with Pete? And who are they trying to scare? If you’re a homophobe, you’re already one and if you’re not you’ve probably educated yourself about aids and also don’t think it’s you’re business about Pete’s medical information.
Even if he was, who cares?
That would be between him and his family and doctor.
Stuff like this gets under my skin and makes me want to be petty.
At some point democrats are going to snap and stop taking the high road. At times you gotta bully the bully and then they will stop.
It’s like the Reagan 80s all over again.
So this means that news about Trump having full blown AIDS is about drop, right?
As if it even matters. He is in a faithful committed marriage with his husband. The science behind HIV/AIDs is so good now it’s hardly a death sentence. For a great example look no further than Sports legend, businessman, entrepreneur, activist, multiple time NBA MVP, Multiple time NBA Champion, NBA Hallmof Fame player and NBA Superstar Magic Johnson who is living with the disease and just endorsed Kamala Harris for President.
Pete Buttigege is getting their anger not because he is gay or has adopted, nope, they are pissed at Secretary Buttigege for running an October surprise. The strike was supposed to cause shortages that would become an issue for homes across the country. I believe the head of the Union explained it as the automakers will feel it first, then the malls and stores, and then everyone will be feeling it. They are mad because they couldn’t hurt you to help Trump.
Thank you for doing your job and even helping people that obviously don’t care about you, it shows that you are the better person for the job. Hopefully you have a role in the next administration.
Blatant LYING is the GOP’s stock in trade.
MAGA trying to bring Gay Panic out of the woodshed. *Wonderful*.
And even if he was, so what?
*Diabetes* is deadlier than HIV, nowadays.
Oh my god are we really back on this HIV scare shit? God, Republicans are such scum.
