  • It's not clear if you are you asking if the ads are normal or your thought process is. The question itself is based on a faulty premise and the body of the OP is just a rant. There isn't a way to answer this with a clear yes or a no. This is an example of the loaded question fallacy. If you answer no you agree with the unsubstantiated rant in the OP that claims ads are encouraging people to get STDs and that it's morally wrong. If you answer yes you're also agreeing that ads encouraging people to get STDs and that it's ok. Either way you're agreeing to buy into the idea that that is what these ads do. It's like if someone where to ask "Have you stopped beating your wife?" either way you'll have admitted to beating your wife.

    • I was mostly speaking of the mentality it seems to give. Encouraging people to be reckless and making it seem like its something everyone gets is saying its ok to get. So is encouraging people to be careless. They are treating this manner as though its a cold when it is much worse. If you tell a 16 year old aids is no big deal and they get it and spread it and the partner dies. The one who spread the aids goes to prison for murder. They murdered someone and that should be a huge deal. No we should not treat people poorly for having the disease but pretending its nothing is not a good approach either.

      • This has nothing to do with my comment. Your "question" was not asked in good faith and was phrased so no matter which option people picked it would support you fallacious world view. It's underhanded and I'm not debating with someone who employs such means.

        • It is not me underhanded. I am sorry if you think so. Perhaps I could have worded it better. That was however the point of my post not what you are imagining it to be. If you do not agree that is your own belief. That was the point of "MY" question. Not everyone is an evil mastermind out to destroy the world. Please leave your conspiracy theories at home. Simply speaking my mind is not me attempting to do so. Not everyone has cameras in your closet.

            • My point was the commercial makes it seems like everyone gets STDS. That is is not a big issue. So if watched by the wrong audience (teens) is going to make them think they don’t have to worry. Since everyone gets it and its ok if you do.

              Which is indirectly causing more aids/STDs as it makes people think you should not care as much. So my point was the overall attitude of the commercial is sending a bad message. So encouraging people to be reckless and that was the point of my post.

              You think I have some secret meaning and trying to pull down the corporations of some nonsense like that. Which I really don’t it was simply a thought and I posted it.

              So I am saying stop being so paranoid since everyone who speak their mind on the internet is not plotting. I might of worded poorly and I could have done better but it does not mean I am trying to become Hitler and destroy you all. So you can relax and put those silly images out of your head.

              Its like accusing me of being the illuminate since you don’t agree with my post. I really doubt I could bring an army against anything anyways. So you can rest assured I am not taking over the world.
