I read the article again. It was even dumber the second time.
Credit to Toddy for calling out the author.
I also think you are right. While not a direct equivalence, the move to make obesity an official "disease" requiring accommodation has gone hand-in-hand with the "fat rights/respect/outrage" movement. I can see the same thing happening with HIV.

I had no idea that diseases picked their victims by income level until I read that article. Or that they were racist in nature. I shall need to go look up some pictures of HIV microbes to see if they have tiny little white hoods on.
HIV doesn't give a damn about any of those things... because HIV is just a disease. White, Black, Blue, Pink.... it is a remarkably egalitarian little SOB. If you are rich white male engaging in lots of unprotected sex with people who are at risk for HIV then you can still catch it.
Quinto's advice of "have sex with partners you know are clean" might be the least controversial thing ever said in this country as regards the gay community.
