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.

Seems a bit politically motivated in my opinion
What seems politically motivated? The desire to vaccinate against a disease before it can be used as a political weapon against a minority population?

The whole thing drips of political motivation. The only question is which motive will see fruition: The motive to not die, or the motive to go after gay people because they aren't susceptible to political messaging of conservatives.

Also, I'll note that this does happen to have been posted in the POLITICS subforum.

In my opinion this disease just like the previous one are being used to implement restrictions so that the next election will go just like the previous.

I have no idea what you mean when you say that gay people aren't susceptible to conservative messaging and I don't really believe either one of them cares very much about the other.

No, the medical mafia and their cohorts in the bought-and-paid-for media and government cronies need to fuck off and die already. I'm gay btw, which I'd normally prefer not to discuss since I'm not a flaming in-your-face kind of guy. I'm just sick and tired of being used as a political pawn by the media (which is neither liberal nor conservative, but actually a tool of the authoritarians nowadays). I came of age in the '80s and dealt with a lot of self hatred from the stupid anti-sex religion I was brought up in, not to mention a strong motivation to keep my orientation secret from everyone due to cultural attitudes at the time, so don't imagine for a moment that I'm "conservative." If you think either "side" is on Your side, then you're a fool who will drink whatever Kool-Aid they tell you to drink "for your own good."

I guess the conservatives have already won.

I'll be frank here: we have had the vaccine for preventing an outbreak of exactly this disease, and we have had it for over half a century.

Nobody is going to make money on this, but gay rights are about to see an attack, and that attack is already under way. It's being waged because the queer population rejects the message of Christian dominionism, largely on account of the fact that the fascist religious right has painted queer people as one of their enemies.

What? Are you going to wait for Fox News to start airing pieces blaming this disease on gay people to care? By that point it's going to be too late. How many times does this have to have happened in recent history?

I'm talking about doing the one thing that will PREVENT gay people from being used as a political football, before we can all be tarred and feathered over the coming months over something we had no real hand in.

There is vanishingly little money to be made by anyone over an unpatented vaccine that we already have merely getting used.

This is entirely about preventing an epidemic from being used against a minority.

Come on Jarhyn..
The only people using the queer community as a political football is the LGBTQETC army making and blowing up stories.
If you don't see that than we are living in different universes.

No, there's a spate of articles all within the last four days. Four days ago there was a wash of media articles focusing on how transmission of the disease was happening primarily in queer communities and two days ago the articles about confirmation of transmission among kids had started, and already conservative mouthpieces (including MTG essentially the modern Anita Bryant) JAQing how those kids got infected.

If you think these aren't points on a line that has already been drawn in the past as regards HIV, you're not paying attention

Otherwise, I guess you can just enjoy your plague of boils, and blaming "the fags" for it.

As far as I understand it the disease spreads through "intense skin on skin contact" and through small fissures.
Is that something that can't be said in case someone gets offended or feels discriminated?

As for your comparison to HIV.. 🤔

The virus spreads a number of ways, not the least of which being hand-to-hand contact with someone who scratches a sore, and then scratching literally anywhere on their own body.

It's a plague of boils. What else do you expext?

The point is to point out that the best way to stop an epidemic from spreading and stopping a second wave of "gay disease", and one in which the gay population can be vilified.

I wish to prevent the vilification of people.

Regardless, it will make it into the straight population but by then the damage will already have been done.

We should have popped off the smallpox vaccination when this first hit the news MONTHS ago.

Come on. We know Covid was just a cold and I'm sure this just the chicken pox. I'm kidding. I think something should be done before it gets out of control but it has to get out of control before everyone wants the vaccine. Bill Gates gotta get them dolla billz.

There are zero dollar bills to be made in vaccination.

The US at least has enough doses to vaccinate the entire population, and the vaccine isn't patentable so it's not like there is money to be made in cooking up another 100m doses over the next 50 years.

It's just simple public policy to demand vaccination right fucking now.

The only reason not to would be wanting to have a minority target to blame for political purposes, or bowing to the spiritual pressure of those whose dark designs incorporate that as part of their sacrifice.

I'll just say that any adult who wants this medical treatment can get it if they want it. This push to line up the populations of the world for mandatory injection regimens will stop as soon as the vast majority say no to fear mongering by the media. In the civilized countries of the world, medical privacy and informed consent have long been established as human rights. Due to events of the past few years, I know personally that my trust in the legal system to uphold such laws has been severely compromised. I had C-19 a year and a half ago. It was a relatively mild case, like a minor flu for me. However, unlike any flu or cold I ever had, I lost my sense of smell completely for at least six months. Yet, according to the fucking lying news media, my natural immunity would not be as good as a needle rape that government bureaucrats wanted to mandate. Now it has become perfectly clear that the "safe and effective" genetic injections are neither. Boosters and updated boosters ad nauseam, each one paid for by the government, yet with full immunity from legal damages by EUA.

Any STD is best treated by prevention. We've known that since .... a long time. Having unprotected sex with multiple partners is stupid regardless whether one is LGBT or hetero.

minority target to blame for political purposes
They are to blame for spreading it. Everyone was aware of monkeypox during pride month. The news warned the LGBTQ not to have their events because they are superspreader events given the nature of monkeypox. They still did their thing without wearing masks or social distancing.

I find it funny how the side who shilled the hardest about wearing masks and social distancing during covid are the ones who spread monkey pox around. They were warned and they didn't listen.

The WHO has issued its strongest warning after a total of 5 monkey pox deaths globally accumulated over recent months.

I wonder what are the WHO objectives in following a well known and relatively trivial disease

Meanwhile traffic accidents are killing about 400 per day globally in places that report such events.

Just the cage aux folles. A small percentage giving no shit. There are other groups, religious, political that act similar.
Then again it is nothing. A couple of deaths in the congo basin. We don't die of natural cirumstances anymore, we die of the security measures.

I guess this was a psy-op that went psy-flop. :ROFLMAO:

Remember folks, the media will always have something for you to be afraid of, and they'll have the "solution" all ready to go before they tell you there's a "problem." Now that it's 2023, don't imagine for a moment that there won't be something going on this year. The ones who pull this shit rely on an anmesiac public to pull off stunts like this with impunity.
