The Trump administration has joined the war on HIV/AIDS, on the side of HIV/AIDS.
SCOOP: The Trump administration has instructed employees and grantees not to use U.S. funds to commemorate World AIDS Day — because the observance was started by the World Health Organization.

I was diagnosed with #HIV in 1998, when I was 30.
Many of my friends had died of AIDS. I did not expect to live to 50.
I’m 58 now.
HIV treatment works.
Treatment also makes it impossible for me to pass HIV on during sex.
Ensure HIV treatment for all.
End HIV stigma.

Today, on Transgender Day of Remembrance, we remember the transgender lives lost to violence.
The Green Party stands shoulder to shoulder with transgender people in the face of increasing transphobic rhetoric in our society and politics.

Legacy media keep referring to the Epstein cover-up as a “scandal,” when they should be calling it a crime.

The “witch hunt” that was instigated by the ‘gender critical’ transphobe trying to target a trans doctor?… 🤔
GC transphobes are so DESPERATE to be seen as the VICTIM (rather than the BULLIES they actually are!)

Imagine what Sonia Sodha would have made of it in her regular Observer pulpit if the trans doctor in the case had said a tiny fraction of the things that nurse had said…?

Heteros are upsetero cos they're brainwashed into adhering to random rules about how someone should look and behave. It's intrinsic to their community; its the only thing they all share.
