Thacker, We Hardly Knew Thee

I was so hoping this would become a big deal. Thacker walked away, saying that the controversy was manufactured from quotations taken out of context: “the term ‘gay plague’ was in vogue in the mid 80’s as this disease first took its toll on that population. Obviously, this disease is now found in people of all races, colors, creeds, and sexual orientations, so I do not use the term except in describing the historical context.” Likewise, I have to assume, “deathstyle” and “sin of homosexuality” have perfect valid historical contexts.
