Isn't the red ribbon HIV/AIDS awareness?

AFAIK it's the OG ribbon!

Yes, this list seems odd. There are also ribbons for things like Autism Awareness:

Autism Awareness Ribbon

Why is just “Lung-cancer” hyphenated?

Ask whatever random image I found on the internet

Atelopus-zeteki@fedia.io · 13 pts · 319d (1 reply)

I asked the image, all it said was "Lung-cancer."

Nope, my area is in the US, where it's guns by a long shot.

"What do you have?"

"Childhood."

Well, not exactly. Red is for HIV/AIDS awareness, and green is for mental illness (although it was also used to symbolise "good AIDS" on an episode of Brass Eye in the '90s, which has obviously aged poorly).

Not sure why I should put the violet ribbon anywhere. Would feel weird, like an attempt to collect sympathy points.

baggachipz@sh.itjust.works · 1 pts · 319d

They all are

Oh my god I totally forgot about those stupid fucking fascist yellow ribbons.
