29. The Tuskeegee incident was not a thing like what this implies
At Tuskeegee, males already sick with syphilis were lied to and told they were being treated when all the doctors were just monitoring them. The purpose of Tuskeegee was to study the progress of syphilis.

Everyone was already sick, they were justr inhumanely allowed to die.

This implies a mistruth (see my post below) and incites fear and suspicion.
I did a paper on AIDS for science in college and I can tell you that this is bunk. Invented by the KGB in 1986 to embarass the US.
