At the ASI.
Rent is a story (loosely a story, a collection of songs loosely nailed to a story might be a better description) detailing the travails of various people of interesting sexuality, their struggles with being HIV positive, the threats of becoming so, and how they cannot find secure and decent housing.
To take this to an island that, until recently, would lock up in isolation camps those who were HIV positive, distinctly demonise those of interesting sexuality and where there hasn’t been decent or secure housing since the socialist revolution is, well, it is humorous, isn’t it?
Catchy lyrics too:
Everyone has AIDS
AIDS, AIDS, AIDS
AIDS, AIDS, AIDS
AIDS, AIDS, AIDS
Everyone has AIDS
I’d never even heard of Rent before. Can I assume it’s what the opening number on Team America was based on.
You have to wonder what kind of bubble these people live in that they can support people who would gladly round them up and kill them.
