not only that, there’s a story behind the story: thousand of children, exploited, invisible. speak up, take a stand, and there’s someone to write about it. that’s how things get better!

wow hey guys let’s cool it with the blatant homophobia there ok?

to op- i’m not sure why you even made this post to begin with. your dad being homophobic isn’t funny. there’s no joke in the post other than either “haha whizzer’s a slut” or “haha my dad said something homophobic.” both “jokes” are fucked up. i genuinely don’t understand the point of the post. nothing there is funny.

to the replies- it’s incredibly fucked up to say that people getting aids-especially in the 80’s- was their fault. you know that nobody knew how you got aids back then, right ? how the fuck could whizzer be at fault for not protecting himself against something nobody knew was even a thing? sure, whizzer’s not real. he never existed. but he represents an entire generation of gay men in their prime being wiped out by an unknown, unseen, deadly force. i don’t give a shit if it’s just a joke. it’s not fucking funny.

also, whizzer didn’t get aids from sleeping around. he got aids by having sex with one man who unknowingly infected him. saying it was “his fault” for his promiscuity? is extremely homophobic! you’re parroting the same exact words and sentiments that the government and society said to the gay community as dying men and their partners begged for help. you’re literally echoing the people who laughed as gay people lost their lives.

okay, but here’s the benefit of the doubt. you weren’t talking about the real gay men in the real actual aids crisis that were actually killed, i get that. you’re talking about the cute boy andrew rannells plays in the show! presumably you like the character quite a bit, so you should respect this: even if we’re only talking about the fictional character and not the very real gay men who died alongside him in droves, whizzer himself resents being called/thought of as a- in your words, commenter- “whore.” relisten to “the games i play.” he feels trapped in his lifestyle of screwing around. it’s not a point of pride for him, it’s the opposite.

overall i’m just appalled that somebody- 43 somebodies- could watch the entire musical falsettos from beginning to end and still manage to miss the point of it this badly. you know, the point that aids can happen to anyone, that it doesn’t discriminate old or young, ill or healthy. that it takes the lives of innocent people, and that those people are incredibly loved and important and worthy of respect. please think before you post next time.
