#GaysOverCovid: Maskless Parties Lead to Rift Within LGBTQ Community

Long before the final countdown to the new year, the party was raging in the Mexican resort city of Puerto Vallarta.

"Ring in the New Year at White Party Puerto Vallarta: UNITY where restaurants, gyms, bars and clubs are open and ready to welcome you to the ultimate New Years weekend getaway!!!" read the online invitation for American party promoter Jeffrey Sanker's annual New Year's Eve circuit party, a large all-night dance event for gay men.

Local officials were putting pressure on Sanker as the party neared, according to the Los Angeles Blade. Puerto Vallarta hospitals were at or near 100 percent capacity, and the state of Jalisco, where the resort town is located, was being throttled by Covid-19, with a reported 65 percent positivity rate, according to local news reports.

Instead of canceling, Sanker moved the event to nearby Nuevo Vallarta, just 10 miles north, but in a different state with more relaxed Covid-19 regulations, according to NBC affiliate KMIR of Palm Springs, California, where Sanker began his White Parties nearly 30 years ago.

If the poofters get sick they’ll be sure to get preferential treatment from Biden and company.

So we have a real quandary here for liberals...
(1) the urge to lock everyone down and bully them into obedience meets...
(2) the time-honored leftist tradition of promoting all manner LGBT hedonism and degeneracy.
This must be a real dilemma for the left.

There is an almost identical situation in the Rapper community where the rappers, well, aren't being obedient little people and the more wokey people are trying to shame them into compliance.

You may not agree with me in this instance, but I will quote a fellow FReeper: I don’t care who they are or what they’re doing. They’re peacefully but boldly opposing the state, and that’s all i want.

I find the worry about unmasked COVID parties silly when laws prohibiting people infected with AIDS having unprotected sex and not informing their partner are being repealed. One is 99.9% survivable while the other is a death sentence without a lifetime of hyperexpensive antiviral drugs.

Some people have nothing better to do than to search through social media accounts to find people to snitch on.

It's because certain lunatic activists have decided spreading HIV is a "civil rights issue." How dare we expect anyone to be truthful about their HIV status before getting naked?

Biden is a hate-filled horror, just like California leftists, for decriminalizing knowingly spreading HIV. It's no different than if someone maimed you for life because that's exactly what they're doing. Those drugs aren't like popping a multivitamin. They are serious business.

As much as I appreciate Trump's efforts to eliminated AIDS by increased funding for PrEP, the reality is Truvada just isn't well tolerated by everyone who might benefit. Even taking PrEP as a preventative requires constant monitoring and testing.

‘Some people have nothing better to do than to search through social media accounts to find people to snitch on.’

Seems like the immunodeficient AIDS queers would be in an extremely high risk group for succumbing to Covid.

No. Because different rules depending on who you are are SOP for the Left.

If COVID was everything they said it was then one would think that.

You also can’t miss doses or then you have the risk of now having a virus that is resistant or even immune to the drugs.
