The Foo Fighters’ AIDS denialism should be on the record
By Martin McKenzie-Murray in The Monthly
I'll give you the short version: they sponsored & supported the most influential AIDS denialist group of the 2000's, resulting in national policies in South Africa that caused an estimated 330,000 deaths there.
They have never apologized or acknowledged what they did.

The Foo Fighters’ AIDS denialism should be on the record
By Martin McKenzie-Murray in The Monthly
It's astounding to me that this never comes up in interviews with Dave or the band. They've memory-holed this whole episode and the hundreds of thousands of deaths their support for this movement caused.

No recuerdo, desde el 23F y el GAL, un golpe tan fuerte al Estado de Derecho como el que ha perpetrado hoy el Supremo. Es un digno homenaje en tan señalada fecha

Doing politics the right way is when the far-right regime in power memorializes a fallen influencer by terrorizing an academic that the influencer's McCarthyist organization once baselessly singled out for abuse.

Seguid protestando. Seguid haciendo boicot. Es lo único que está en nuestras manos y con suficiente movilización funciona.

large blue sign that says, in tall white font: "I HAVE FRIENDS EVERYWHERE"
Among all the other things that it is, it's a very particular and strange moment in the history of streaming television that this sign exists and is being produced for upcoming protest marches.

Statement from Tristan Kern de Gonzales
Husband of Jonathan Joss
My husband Jonathan Joss and I were involved in a shooting while checking the mail at the site of our former home. That home was burned down after over two years of threats from people in the area who repeatedly told us they would set it on fire. We reported these threats to law enforcement multiple times and nothing was done.
Throughout that time we were harassed regularly by individuals who made it clear they did not accept our relationship. Much of the harassment was openly homophobic.
When we returned to the site to check our mail we discovered the skull of one of our dogs and its harness placed in clear view. This caused both of us severe emotional distress. We began yelling and crying in response to the pain of what we saw.
While we were doing this a man approached us. He started yelling violent homophobic slurs at us. He then raised a gun from his lap and fired.
Jonathan and I had no weapons. We were not threatening anyone. We were grieving. We were standing side by side. When the man fired Jonathan pushed me out of the way. He saved my life.
Jonathan is my husband. He gave me more love in our time together than most people ever get. We were newlyweds. We picked Valentines Day. We were in the process of looking for a trailer and planning our future.
He was murdered by someone who could not stand the sight of two men loving each other.
I was with him when he passed. I told him how much he was loved.
To everyone who supported him, his fans, his friends, know that he valued you deeply. He saw you as family.
My focus now is on protecting Jonathan’s legacy and honoring the life we built together.
If your concern is how someone coped with trauma or how loudly they speak when recounting injustice and being ignored by authorities then you never truly cared about my husband.
Jonathan saved my life. I will carry that forward. I will protect what he built.

Jonathan Joss--voice actor of John Redcorn from King of the Hill, and Ken Hotate from Parks and Rec--was killed in a homophobic hate crime today.
I'm so angry.
