Almost none of what you've claimed is true.
There was a large gap between discovery of HIV in human populations, including people getting AIDS and dying of trivial infections due to their immune systems being wiped out. Once people started looking deeper it was also discovered that it was far from a "gay" disease. All of this happened before a single human tried AZT for an HIV infection.
Beyond all the scientific evidence we have real world Darwin Award trials: various HIV denialists infected with HIV have refused to take drugs to treat HIV and they have died. Others got very sick and were cured almost immediately after starting standard treatment.
We also have numerous clinical cases of people with undiagnosed HIV infections getting sick from common bacterial/fungal infections, get diagnosed as HIV positive, start the standard drug regimen, and their problems go away.
Not to mention SIV (the simian relative of HIV) causes an AIDS-like disease in some primate species which gives us both another line of direct evidence and almost certainly the original source of HIV.
You're just plain wrong.
We can squirt HIV in a dish and watch it kill the normally unkillable T cells. We know 100% what happens when your T cells collapse: your immune system stops working and some normally benign organism takes over your body then you die. We've sequenced HIV. We know how it mutates so rapidly. We know why it is able to attack T cells.
There is no mystery and no need for conspiracy. All lines of evidence point to HIV as the culprit.
