Love the name. Critics can whine to someone who gives a sh*t.

That anyone would complain pretty much confirms the truth of the matter.

The Left whines because they are being ridiculed.

“Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon. There is no defense. It is almost impossible to counterattack ridicule. Also it infuriates the opposition, who then react to your advantage.”
— Saul Alinsky

Almost all of the cases have been spread via some form of male homosexual activity, not that there’s anything wrong with that./s

Seriously, there are bigger things happening than outrage over Tucker Carlson and his tweets. If folks are offended, they need to grow up and get a life.

a group of scientists, many based in Africa, issued a position paper calling for a name change for the disease to avoid the negative impact it was having on people from different communities.

Scientist are calling for a name change? That's funnier than a barrel of Monkeypox! What the hell kind of scientist are these? Should they not be concerned with curing this rather than being all concerned about the terminology? And why was it not an issue 60+ years ago?

It’s so hard to choose! I agree with you, but Shiffilis gets a very special recognition
