re: HIV meds commercials

Under the guise of being pro gay the advertising is endorsing the behaviors that cause increased morbidity and mortality in gay people.
But isn't the medication supposed to reduce the viral load so much so that you can have hiv but not transmit it to your sexual partners?
1. Even restricting the discussion to HIV no responsible person in the Healthcare industry should encourage the kind of Tinder sex with randoms that the commercials implicitly endorse. Compliance with use of medications is less than 100% and no one can promise 100% prevention of HIV transmission
2. There are a lot of STDs other than HIV. Seeing a drug company which supposedly promotes human welfare promote the opposite seems like an obvious problem. I'm not a big fan lawsuits but I could imagine a gay man infected by HIV, monkey pox, Herpes or whatever attempting to sue.

I don’t know why not. If you grew up in the 80’s and early 90’s the media breathlessly told everyone this wasn’t largely a “homosexual disease.” And we know the media would NEVER lie.
If you were an 18 years old male in 1988 the media told you there was a 98% chance you’d get HIV by having unprotected sex with your girlfriend.
30 years later you are seeing the TRUTH now that being gay is “cool”.

No, it's simply to make money and it's targeting the 0.3% of the population that's HIV positive

Well that is there target audience. Not going to sell many PrEP pills if they advertise to married people who have not had sex in 4.5 months.

How come not once on these commercials do they say avoid having gay sex with strangers
As stated earlier, they promote promiscuity to enlarge their potential drug population.

It's hilarious because it's the only commercial where you're allowed to stereotype people to the nth degree

AIDS is still a pandemic, especially in Africa. There’s no cure but meds have been developed that lessen its effects.

I could possibly understand if these commercials aired on BRAVO.
I’m watching a damn football game and have to see this nonsense.

And they were all up in arms that Reagan wasn't talking about AIDS enough.
That's really what you want? A nice heart-to-heart with Ronnie about AIDS? (Or were they just looking for something to bitch about?)
Anyway, CVS sells vibrating buttplugs now, and they're right behind the register labeled "Buzzy Butt."

Mostly in the GBTQ+ communities. And homeless drug abusers.

Heteros with aids are drug abusers and an extremely small percentage contracted it via an accidental needle stick or porn stars.
And there are some chicks that get it whose husbands or boyfriends are getting banged in the arse on the DL, then coming and banging them.

In with you. Tried to watch football with my brother's grandson. The commercial came on. I had to quickly change the channel so he wouldn't see it.

Play it on project runway or queer eye, not during a family Christmas movie
