🩸 They let us die then — and they’re letting us die now. Joshua Robert draws a chilling line from the government’s silence during the AIDS crisis of the 1980s to today’s deliberate defunding of LGBTQ+ resources.

We expose:

🔥 The shutdown of the 988 suicide hotline’s queer-specific support
⚠️ Ongoing attacks on HIV care and the rise of trans healthcare bans
📚 The erasure of LGBTQ+ youth in schools and the rollback of queer-inclusive policies
🕰️ How the political playbook hasn’t changed—only the headlines have

With hard facts, historical context, and fiery commentary, this episode is a must-listen deep dive into queer history, modern policy battles, and the ongoing fight for LGBTQ+ survival and justice.

🎧 Whether you’re LGBTQ+ or an ally, this episode will inform, enrage, and empower you to keep fighting.
