Since the outset of the global monkeypox outbreak in May, public health and infectious disease experts have told the public that the virus is largely transmitting through skin-to-skin contact, in particular during sex between men.

In recent weeks, a growing body of scientific evidence including a trio of studies published in peer-reviewed journals, as well as reports fromnational, regional and global health authorities has suggested that experts may have framed monkeypoxs typical transmission route precisely backward.

Yeah, none of the 3 quoted studies rule out, or even make skin contact as transmission less likely. In fact, you can't really determine this with the data presented, which is pretty much just a demographic characterization of the infected and presentation characteristics.

Because a major political party in the US is using any justification it can to stop treating gay people like human beings?

This happened before with AIDS

Yep, people never really seemed to understand that the Reagan admin's response to AIDS was absolutely an attempt at genocide of the gay community.
In much the same way as the British response to the Irish Potato Blight was a genocide. If you understand the problem, and have the ability to mitigate the damage, yet you choose not to because it's only killing a group of people you hate, that's a genocide.

because there isnt nearly enough information to really conclude that yet, HIV/AIDS seemed like it affected mostly the gay community so it wasnt taken very seriously, only for that to turn out to be incorrect and it became a huge epidemic largely because of that false assumption

Even if there's a higher incidence rate in a certain group, who cares?

Even if it were a disease that ONLY targeted gay people, we should STILL be mobilizing a speedy healthcare response for a disease that we KNOW (it's been around for decades), AND that we already have the effective vaccines and treatment for.

The fact that we aren't, belies the motives behind the lack of speed.

Scientists. Its probably important medical research to know which demographics are most at risk for something.

That said though, I agree with everything else you said.

This is a dangerous game to play, we have learned nothing from AIDS.

even if most infected people are gay it doesnt mean its a gay disease, and that kind of thinking led to AIDS spreading so much among heterosexual people later on

I honestly think its worse for tolerance towards gay people to have a disease where 99% of the people that have it are gay men where you pretend like its spreading through handshakes or touching the same doorknob than to actually admit its spreading through sex.

my altright freedom convoy acquaintance person trying to "AHA! GOTCHA!" me:

"so monkeypox is 95% between men who have sex with men"
>"you mean gay men?"
"i..uh...well...uhh..okay anyways. So that means 5% others are women right?"
>"Okay?"
"NO! GOTCHA! IT'S TRANS PEOPLE! GOTCHA! NO WOMEN ARE GETTING IT AT ALL!"

then he talked about "groomers" for a solid 8 minutes.

You really shouldn't deny reality in the attempt to protect people. You'll just end up failing in both areas
