Look at this, and remember it next time someone says that the gay community survived the AIDS epidemic.

We didn’t survive, we started over. We lost all but an entire generation.

This is what “we survived Reagan, you’ll survive Trump” looks like. No, we didn’t.

^^^ I hate that line. Because a great many people didn’t survive Reagan, and a good many more won’t survive Trump. People who say that clearly haven’t gotten a goddamned clue. 

Last year I took a class called New Queer Cinema and we LITERALLY lost a whole generation of gay actors, musicians, artists, and public figures.
