In 1991, Eric Pollard, co-founder of the Washington D.C. branch of ACT-UP, in an interview with ''Washington Blade'', a major homosexual newspaper, admitted that he and other group members learned to apply subversive tactics, drawn largely from the voluminous [[Mein Kampf]], which some of them studied as a working model. They struck "intently and surgically" into whatever institutions they believed to stand in their way.<ref>{{cite journal |author=Jeffrey Satinover |title=Neither Scientific nor Democractic |journal=The Linacre Quarterly |volume=60 |issue=May 1999 |page=87 |year=1999 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=ldMJAQAAMAAJ&lpg=RA1-PA87}}</ref><ref>{{cite journal |author=Eric Pollard |title=Time to Give Up Fascist Tactics |journal=Washington Blade |chapter=Letters to the Editor |pages=39 |date=31 January 1992}}</ref>

ACT-UP's terrorist actions, including raiding and holding up doctors meetings, was cited to be an inspiration for [[Anthony Fauci]] when attempting to push AZT as a treatment. However, his wording ambiguously implied that he either decided to do so due to ACT-UP's actions and his sympathizing with them, or saw them as an excuse to push through with it.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wy3frBacd2k</ref>
