      Basic historical facts? (US history) Regan ignored AIDS because it was thought to be a gay disease and it wiped out a whole generation of people.

        Just checking that your one line comment wasn’t meant to be triggering. It’s hard to tell in LGBT communities these days.

          What an odd interaction this is.

          I’m commenting because the chart is devoid of meaning without the relevant facts. Statistics mean nothing out of context.

          This post would be better with context so i provided some

            Maybe you don’t see how your comment could have been interpreted in ambiguous ways on such a triggering topics (AIDS). But please, don’t blame me for asking a little more context of you. Your first comment would have been great with the part you added after I asked you to elaborate. I didn’t downvote it by the way.
