Ok, I'm while I may not be the smartest person I know, I do know that getting a disease that could potentially kill you is NOT a good thing.

With this, i'm officially convinced that I need to move to the moon. :oh_no:

I think you missed the point of the film. The idea is to raise awareness for HIV and AIDS. The main character, as described by the site, is seeking out HIV in order to become part of the community, but quickly realizes the illness is much more severe.

Quote:

"It is the filmmakers’ hope that The Gift will create dialogue within the community and raise awareness of the issues of isolation and division in the gay community around HIV status, thereby leading to a renewed prevention effort."

Actually I hadn't actually paid attention to the movie itself. I was responding more to the article here


Perhaps my title was a bit misleading...

OK, I agree... that is completly fucked up.

Edit: I've spent some time reading articles on the site... It is very troubling to me, and a bit shocking, but I can't say I am really surprised overall. Sad really... but, at least the people are being up front... and it is not like HIV positive people feel they should "Convert" as many people as possible without their partners knowing. If a consenting adult wants to die, fine by me... Still the whole idea is very morbid and sick.

Hmmmm slavery to a drug industry.....Diseases encouraged to perpetuate the existence of a worthless branch of modern medicine.....

Makes me think of the American Cancer Society: totally useless, and thieves....

NONE of these diseases will be cured as long as you keep throwing money at them.....does buying gas bring us any closer to an alternative? no....

These "researchers" for all the billions they make.....aren't held accountable in the slightest....and it shows.....for the last 30 years all they could come up with is antiqated medicinal treatments from the sixties and the revelation that sex/not smoking/not eating dairy products/etc. reduces the risk of cancer?! Who gives a fuck....I say boycott all these fuckers....

Anyway I feel sorry for all the gays stupid enough to ascribe to this kind of thinking.... There's probably the intent to wipe the gay population all together and it was prolly the brainchild of some Christian, right wing fuck wipe Republican who thinks he's doing gods work...or some shit....

That

is

fucking

twisted!


"Oh I don't want to worry if I have it or not, I just want to get it and get it over with." WHAT THE FUCK! Conversion parties to get HIV/AIDS?! Getting HIV/AIDS isn't a cakewalk death man, I've seen people tortured by this disease, be either being enslaved by pills or writhing on their death beds. Some peole are just seriously fucked in the head. Here let me go get my hand gun, blow your brains out the back of your head and it will be over. Then you won't have to worry if you are dead or not.

Seriously fucked up shit man.

A perfect example of political correctness going way too far. Very disturbing. Hopefully smallpox won't become fashionable in the near future :oh_no:

I say we should deny the fucker health insurance claims and see how fucking erotic he thinks that is - fucking douche bag. It'd be one thing if he was like 15 talking stupid shit like that, but this guy's in his early 30's??!! WTF??!!!

Unfortunately, some people could live to be 200 and still not have a grain of common sense in their heads.
