LGB Alliance monkeypox tweets deleted

The LGB Alliance tweets from yesterday about gay men and monkeypox have been deleted by twitter for either homophobia or misinformation.

It's a good article. Solid. No hysterics. All sensible stuff:

"It makes no sense to play down the likely impact since we can’t be certain what will happen...
Most deaths in Africa affect children. God forbid a child dies or is maimed in this outbreak. That’s not exactly the way to win friends and influence people.
...
a search of the websites of most commercial sex venues in the UK or US (gay or straight) still do not warn customers they should not visit if they have symptoms.
That’s an irresponsible outrage that gay men should call out loud and clear, not just because we care about our own health, but because we want to look after the health of our fellow non-gay citizens. "
And:

"Our job as a community is therefore not to integrate and play our part to help as adults in the wider social family, but to be continual infantile disruptors and rebels. When this was just an academic debate, it may have been an entertaining sideshow. It has failed its first serious test: a health crisis."

So the LGBA is trying to protect gay people from a potentially lethal disease that’s currently spreading among gay men. And their opponents (who up till now have noticeably been transactivists) want to silence the LGBA on this subject.

I think that makes it pretty clear who the homophobes are.
