There's an unfortunate situation unfolding today in the world.
A disease has started to spread, and it originally entered, as many do, through sexual minority communities. It's name is Monkeypox and it is a close relative to Cowpox and Smallpox, such a close relative in fact that infection with cowpox will effectively immunize both Monkeypox and Smallpox.
This is actually what the smallpox vaccine is.
The issue is that, in a stunning repeat of the 80's, conservative interests ignored the spread of the disease so that it could get a foothold, and now because it is also spread readily by kids, conservatives are spreading the false suspicion that gay people are a threat to kids.
It is already starting with talking heads JAQing ("Just asking questions") about the gay bars or gay people who exist close enough to point a finger and scream "witch" but with the inflection of a question so as to seem less like an angry mob.
If any of you actually purport to live your neighbors, the solution is clear: we need the vaccine, we already have it, we just need to use it.
