The Rules

Posts must be:

Links to news stories from...
...credible sources, with...
...their original headlines, that...
...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

Before he died, Rock Hudson asked the Reagan’s for help getting access to experimental medical treatment. They had been friends. They essentially ghosted him after his diagnosis.

Reagan didn’t bother forming an investigation committee until 1987, and he literally appointed people like the head of fucking AMWAY to head it.

They didn’t design the virus to kill us, but they found it a happy development. Go back and watch Tammy Faye talking to an AIDS patient in the 80s - the fact that she said she was willing to be in the same room with him was a big deal (he came in through TV because he was too sick to be on set).
