WORLD AIDS DAY
this year world aids day is about "stigma and discrimination". i guess that's a pretty big deal for hiv and aids.
i don't know who said "we have nothing to fear but fear itself", some american president i think. you know what? he was right, i think.
anyway, discrimination through fear is one of the ways they break us up. you probably have more in common with some of the people who are HIV+ than you do with the people who run your town, your government.
and you'll say "how do i have anything in common with people who are gay, or who inject drugs, or who are promiscuous sexually, or haemophiliac, or who have a parent or a partner who is one of those things?"
and i will say what you have in common is that you are a husband, wife, mother, father, child, family member, community member, you are a crew member of spaceship earth, and that by listing the types of behaviour in that question you are allowing fear to drive the facts from your mind.
