“It is critical that DaBaby and his fans learn that people living with HIV today, when on effective treatment, lead long and healthy lives and cannot transmit HIV. “The rhetoric that DaBaby used is inaccurate, hurtful, and harmful to the LGBTQ community and the estimated 1.2 million Americans living with HIV,” DaShawn Usher, associate director of communities of color for GLAAD, wrote in a statement via Twitter. Why would GLAAD are about homophobia? They removed the word 'gay' from their homepage despite it being the 'G' in GLAAD. (after Elton John and Dua Lip reacted much more quickly) to issue a statement, and it had to come from their 'Associate director of communities of color).Īnd it doesn't talk at all about homophobia, just anti-HIV stigma. So it only took GLAAD 4 whole days to reply.
