rumours 45,521 Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 I’m curious as to what GGD thinks about this... Recently, Nick Cannon sat down for an interview in which he elaborated on a lot of things regarding this career and personal life (Mariah Carey, AGT drama, etc.). However, at the end of a segment, Nick Cannon stated that he believes “HIV is chemical warfare in its truest form” and that “it was designed [by the government] to get rid of certain groups of people”. He starts talking about it at 4:44 in the video. So... what do y’all think? Is he speaking truth or spreading a dangerous conspiracy theory? Share your thoughts below.

Shipper 13,000 Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Possible. Read up on the Tuskegee study. In 1932, the US government studied African Americans in Tuskegee Alabama with SYPHILLIS for 40 years and not giving then treatment just so they can study them. https://www.cdc.gov/tuskegee/timeline.htm In the 1940's, the US gave 5000 people in Guatamela STD like gonorrhea and syphillis for a "study." This is a fact. The US government apologized for it. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3828982/ This is history. Where was the first ever case of HIV in the world? Congo in 1920's. Ebola? Congo in 1976. 💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Congo in 1976. I'm aware of the studies you have referenced, and there is no doubt that the US gov has been involved in some (for lack of better terminology) shady behavior. If we assume that the accusation Cannon is making is true, would that mean that the US gov simply did not expect the epidemic to finally spread among US citizens (no matter age, race, sexuality, etc.) in the magnitude that it did?

That's what I'm thinking. I took an epidemiology class any my professor often said that the diseases originating in Africa could be natural but then whose to say scientist did not have a hand at how it spreads? If you look at it, these STDs and HIV somehow targets unwanted population as Canon said. The promiscuous, the gays, the African Americans, the poor. Guess who were considered as uncivilized and less than human at those times? Take note in 1920s we were fresh out of WW1 and it could have been some messed up chemical warfare they funded. I sound like a lunatic conspiracy theorist here but it is possible. 💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕📦💕 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
androiduser 7,438 Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 I don't believe it is gov made, but I do believe that it wasn't taken care of at the beginning of the epidemic in order to hurt the lgbt community Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daredevil 2,133 Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Not sure about that, but they certainly were accomplice. During the 1980s, more gay men died in New York City during the AIDS crisis than all recorded deaths of American soldiers in Vietnam. Millions died and the government refused to do anything.

Cavadour 2,286 Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 The polio vaccine, developed by Hilary Koprowski, MD, that was used in trials in Africa, after first being tested in the US is also an interesting story. This point of view is developed by journalist Edward Hooper in his book The River: A Journey to the Source of HIV and AIDS (1999). That disturbing theory, which is based on staggering maps and dates comparisons between early HIV outbreak and oral vacines delivered to a quarter of million of people in Congo around 1960 has been of course debunked since, but still...

27monster27 12,688 Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Bare in mind that I heard this awhile ago, so take this with a grain of salt. Slightly off topic, but sometime during the Cold War I think that the US government briefly considered finding a way to get Russian jets like the MiG-15 and making US pilots fly them and attack our country to have an excuse to go to war with the USSR. This shows that we are willing to go to crazy extents to try to get things to happen. he/him/his Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Millions died and the government refused to do anything. I guess I interpreted the government's non-involvement as a conservative administration's (Reagan's) lack of desire to help LGBT people based on personal ideology. I never considered it a conspiracy (similar to Cannon's claims) because Reagan's administration was pretty openly anti-LGBT. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 while we are on this topic, just a friendly reminder to those of you who are sexually active - GET TESTED. (every 3 - 6 months) the only reason HIV is still prominent is because people are NOT getting tested. 1 in 4 people are living with HIV and DON'T EVEN KNOW THEY HAVE IT. This means that they are at risk of transmitting it to others and are at risk of HIV advancing to HIV 2 and eventually AIDS. It is 2018 people! Get tested. Get treated. Stay healthy. Nobody dies from HIV anymore unless you straight up don't get tested or treated and you let it spiral out of control. And if any of you ever need help finding out where to get free testing / treatment for anything / prescription assistance, HIT ME UP! I am very resourceful for all of the above and would love to help any of you guys so we can all stay happy and healthy! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
