You get AIDS from sex, you're going to die. Very very much earlier than normal, and from something stupid, like a bad cold that turns into pneumonia. I'm just saying that it's a pretty harsh penalty to being a bit stupid. I've been stupid in the past, have you? Ever? Did you ever try smoking? Have any unprotected sex when maybe it wasn't the best idea? Depended on the pull out method? No, never? Bullshit. But you're not going to die because of your mistake, and you're not ostracized and demonized and blamed for being sick like someone with HIV is.

Being sentimental and understanding the death sentence they have doesn't in any way refute the statement that it was SELF-INFLICTED, which was the statement YOU took issue with.
Faulting someone for their self-inflicted diseases does not make them "ostracized and demonized" but it certainly does mean they're being blamed. Call it for what it is. The fact that we all make mistakes does not change the fact that they made a deadly one. Just like someone who makes the deadly choice to race their car on a packed highway and dies. We could be just as sympathetic for them, but that doesn't change the fact that they (a) made a choice and (b) made a deadly mistake by making that choice.
