No, you transform yourself.

A lot of them went blind.

Then they went insane.

They started getting opportunistic diseases.

You know how AIDS works.

Did kids start saying they wish they hadn't done this?

Well, when you see Vladi's documentary and that Swedish documentary, Socialismo Muerte, which was made in 1995, you definitely see the kids having deep regrets.

You have one of them saying, I regret this.

I regret it a million times.

And in that Swedish documentary, there's a scene towards the end where you see Papo and he's clearly sick.

He's real thin, his face is swollen.

And we see him stepping into an evangelical church.

He's wearing an Urbana t-shirt.

But he's become a fervent Christian.

He's found this community of evangelical Christians that accepts AIDS patients.

and that he thinks that Christ is the perfect communist.

If more communists were like the Christians, that would be perfect.

It's interesting though, because in that last video, we also see him taking English classes.

And he's saying like, you know, the other patients in the sanitarium, they're like sick like me.

They won't go out at night.
