I hate history. I know what happens. I shout at them to do the right thing, but they screw it all up anyways and theres nothing I can do about it and I have to live with the mistakes they made. Old newspaper articles are pretty bad, I think. I found some early articles about AIDS in the NY Times, looks like this:
OUTLOOK ON AIDS IS TERMED BLEAK
A DEFENSE AGAINST NO DEFENSE
NEW HOMOSEXUAL DISORDER WORRIES HEALTH OFFICIALS
CASES OF AIDS IN CITY INCREASE AT SLOWER RATE THAN WAS PREDICTED
HOMOSEXUALS FIND A NEED TO REASSESS
AIDS RISK HELD SLIGHT FOR THOSE ON TRANSFUSIONS
INFANT WHO RECEIVES TRANSFUSION DIES OF IMMUNE DEFICIENCY ILLNESS
DISEASE STIRS FEARS ON BLOOD SUPPLY
and reading them upsets me in much the same but still slightly different way to the articles on global warming with people sitting back and thinking aloud “hm, this isnt looking so great.” You’re Doing It All Wrong. Hate history. HATE IT.
nup. wrong. wait…. are aids and global warming the same? you make no sense
