Your Sex Partner Might be a Mass Murderer

HitlerHow would you feel when – in the heat of the most intimate moment a man and woman can have together – your partner suddenly turns out to be a mass murderer? Not very comfortable, a German safe sex organisation must have been thinking. In an attempt to make Aids more scary than ever, a campaign was designed featuring mass murderers like Adolf Hitler, Saddam Husayn and Stalin.

The new campaign, developed by Regenbogen e.V. in conjunction with the advertising agency Das Comitee, has already received a lot of attention, although it is only supposed to be released by december 1, World AIDS Day. A spokesperson for World AIDS Day has condemned the video for being stigmatizing and not bringing the right message.
