It would be if the population being targeted is then persecuted or
stigmatized.

HIV infection still carries ENORMOUS stigma everywhere in the world.
It is NOT the same as TB, syphilis or diabetes.

And indeed, it is being treated DIFFERENTLY by CDC, which does NOT
require routine testing for any of these, but merely based on the
usual physician/patient relationship, etc.

This testing bullshit is about money. It is NOT about giving a sh.t
about people living with HIV/AIDS.

This administration LOVES to fund technologies. Testing. Machines.
Video game warfare.

But PEOPLE? Fuggedaboudit.

No pay for nurses. Teachers. Counsellors. Soldiers. Veterans.
Homeless.

Just more about shoveling money into the hands of the rich, screwing
the poor, maiming and slaughtering to steal the world's dwindling
resources.

I wonder if Rumsfeld or Cheney got waterboarded and treated in other
ways they claim are not torture, how they'd feel about it?
