Advocates worry that as HHS secretary, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. could undermine years of work to unlink autism and vaccines and divert precious research dollars to a discredited theory.
They’re talking about the years its taken to fix the damage caused by one ass-hat saying autism is caused by vaccines. There have been hundreds of studies showing there is no link. Stop wasting time and resources on this, and use it to study other possibilities.
I once heard that autistic people are us evolving. That with autistic people they are great at one thing, just lack in others. Don’t know if true or not, but nevertheless autism isn’t something that should be cured. That like saying they will cure gay people. I am tired of these fucking assholes trying to halt progress. Can we please keep this motherfucker out?
The (false) link is damaging to vaccine programs but it has no impact on the perception of Autism. Why should Autism communities care more than anyone else?
Personal story. My daughter is on the spectrum, non verbal. When my father found out, he told me I was a terrible parent for vaccinating my kids.
I think autistic people have a right to be upset that these fucking monsters are saying “don’t vaccinate, or you could end up being like them” The target for this are vaccines, but they’re using autism as the bogeyman
the quality of community can reasonably be expected to get worse as the government invents their own understanding of autism based on flimflam and bullshit, thereby worsening diagnostics, inviting fake cures, and creating new and stupider stigmas
and they won’t have this anymore?
