Tin foil hats need to be adjusted. Sort of.

TIME (and lots of other sources) is laughing at ‘conspiracy theories’ that claim African Americans were injected with HIV..

The United States injected African Americans with syphilis..  

So why is TIME magazine laughing at something–though perhaps untrue–that could be a logical conclusion given other famed injections from the past?
