It makes sense that they would experiment on homos in the 1980s. They had come out of the closet and were easy to find in abundance congregating together. They had no spouse or kids to advocate for them. Their extended families had probably ostracized them. They would not be missed when they died. And their deaths could be blamed on their gay lifestyle.
So why are homos still mostly Liberals and vote Dem? The Dems. are not really their friends. The Dems. are just using them.
