However, Oliver then questioned if the delays in fixing the problems had anything to do with “who’s been getting hit the hardest.”
“You have to believe that if monkeypox was spreading largely through heterosexual sex things would be drastically different,” Oliver said. “It is not homophobic to acknowledge who is currently most affected, which is gay and bisexual men, sex workers, and people who participate in sex with multiple partners. What is homophobic is when you blame or shame the people who are suffering or when you decide you don’t need to care about this because you don’t see their lives as valuable or their suffering as consequential and that is where there are strong echoes of the AIDS crisis in some of the discussion around monkeypox.”

Oh sheesh, he states the obvious, then covers himself in PC bull excrement.
Also why has "monkeypox" not been renamed?
To: DallasBiff
I wonder why he is so concerned about an illness that needs penile to Uranus contact.
Hmmm?

We’ve been repeatedly told and warned by leftist that this is not a gay disease.
To: DallasBiff
How about recognized the community at risk and isolating them—quarantine all homosexuals?

don't know who Oliver is: don't care.
What is homophobic is when you blame or shame the people who are suffering
1: phobia is fear. I don't fear homos.
2: I blame those who knowingly cause their own suffering especially when they blame us.

You quarantine the sick... You lockdown those who aren’t sick. Lock down all gay bars, clubs, events... No more pride parades... Didn’t you learn anything from 2020? /s

Remember when they blamed and shamed antivaxers.
To: DallasBiff
It has. It is now called “schlong covid”.

The World Health Organization is wanting to rename it, so why not name it after the head of the WHO Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus? Nah, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus Pox is too long. Ghebreyesus Pox? Nah, still too long. Ghe Pox? Perfect if you pronounce Ghe as gay.

Calling these people elites is like calling Velveeta a delicacy.

Anyone who presides over this disastrous of an outbreak shouldn’t be President - right, John? Wake me up when this elitist hypocrite and the 100 people who watch his show call on Dementia Joe to step down.
