I can't care less that 4 people have a SWJ-compatible perspective on something, i have no problem being the minority in my beliefs. I know in 2020 it's fashionable to engage in historical revisionism to highlight some special groups oppression but personally i'm not buying it in this case.

The reason why HIV treatment took awhile is the same reason why other treatments take awhile. They require research and technological capabilities and it has nothing to do with who was being infected.


The lack of the Reagan Administration's response in the early years of the AIDS epidemic is pretty well-documented. I don't, however, see how it's really relevant to covid-19 though.

Weird to want a "study" on that. Not sure which journals accept archival "studies", considering it's just history.

We really started to see HIV ramp up in the US starting in 1981, and Reagan didn't publicly say the word "AIDS" until 1985, and didn't give a speech on it until 1987.

Reagan's Surgeon General, C. Everett Koop, even shared that he was prevented by the administration from addressing the AIDS crisis in the early years of the administration. He wasn't authorized to release a Surgeon General's Report on AIDS until 1986, and had been excluded from the Executive Task Force on AIDS for the first 2 years after it was created.

Much of what one would find online would also include the recording between reporter Lester Kinsolving and Deputy Press Secretary Larry Speakes:

they are going ham setting up testing sites in every city across the USA. Wartime mode. That means they are sending in a large number of people across the USA aiding the nation.
THis is what we needed 1-2 months ago but we're doubling up. We're actually more then doubling up. We're just going hammmmmm

woooo

this is 1/1000th of the production our nation went through during ww2.
Our nation goes HAM when they start to panic. Too bad we allowed this shit to get this far but it's amazing how quick we respond the moment we know we're in deep shit lol
