I'm in no way defending Nena by writing this blog, because I have had almost no interactions with him on this site. I'm not saying what he said was acceptable to say to someone, and I personally wouldn't ever stoop that low in an argument.
However, I did a little bit of research before writing this blog. According to UNAID there are approximately 41 million people in the world living with AIDS. In 2025 570,000 people died from an AIDS related cause. I get that it's a horrible disease, I've personally seen what it can do to people. However, this isn't the early 90s or before, where an AIDS diagnosis was practically an automatic death sentence. So, please explain to me like I'm 5 years old, why there is THIS much outrage over an inappropriate comment. I'd be more offended by someone wishing death upon me than wishing I got AIDS.
