"Homosexuality: Legitimate, Alternate Deathstyle" is actually a book written by Dick Hafer waaaayyyy back in the halcyon days of 1986 when Reagan ran the country and everyone was afraid of the Bomb. AIDS had just begun coming into the public consciousness and most people (who were only just starting to call it something other than "Gay Cancer") knew almost nothing about it. This left the door wide open for uncheck fear and hate against the group seen as the primary carriers of this disease... homosexuals. Dick Hafer manages to distill and ferment this hate and fear into an almost 100 proof heady brew and then gives it to you good through a series of cartoons that can almost be referred to as "chibified." Make no mistake though, this is pure, uncut bigotry mainlined straight into your neocortex. Brace yourselves.

JessicaPotential origins for the HIV virus and its method of jumping from simians to humans are discussed here. You will note that even though the "conspiracy theory" is addressed at no point is it mentioned that it may have come from acts of bestiality. So that little illustration there is just spurious. | ||
SteveNotice the (very likely) possibility that the virus jumped from chimps to humans as a result of humans killing and eating chimps isn't even alluded to. Because that would place at least part of the responsibility on the shoulders of humans. And, I suppose, eating chimp meat isn't nearly as lurid as the suggestion that bestiality had something to do with it. For Hafer, if humans had any active hand in transmitting the virus from chimps to themselves, it had to have been in an act of sexual perversion. The theme of "this is all the fault of those degenerates" is essential to his narrative. Also: Fuck off and take "normal folks" with you, Dick. |

SeanNotice that when he uses the term "Normal People" he also excludes the Hemophiliacs. That's a bit uh... dickish. (Look, cut me some slack, this comic's giving us nothing to work with.) |

SteveHoly shit, you guys. That's one of the ugliest, foulest, most irresponsible, most hideously bigoted things I've ever read. Thanks so much for the invitation! I think I'll go spend the rest of my life under a hot shower. | |
Sean | Thanks for your help Steve, I doubt we could have suffered through it without you. Well there you have it, more Dick Hafer, still the same big ol' ball of unapologetic hate speech we covered years ago. If you don't hear from me again, it's because I succumbed to alcohol poisoning and died a substantially less painful death. |
