I cannot stress enough how weird it is to hear this guy talk about autism like it's a permanent vegetative state; and there *TODAY* on this season of Survivor, a girl with Autism kicking ass every episode in the challenges.

It’s easy to forget autism is different for every person. for me it just means I avoid eye contact like the plague and really like Star Wars, but there are other autistic people out there who are unable to perform basic tasks without assistance. low-functioning autism IS a disability.
In fairness, this isn’t the case with every person who has autism. Some face challenges that are very real, & very difficult to surmount. For example some folks reach adulthood & are still preverbal. I don’t like RFK at all, but I also don’t think we can only highlight the positive stories.
Yeah, 100%. But even the negative stories have as much right to live and be spoken about as human beings who have value. Rather than be cast as ticking time bombs or Terry Schiavos. For my money, RFK can't poison himself with methylene blue fast enough.
I never said that the people who have more challenges are “negative stories.” I said they had more challenges. I never said I wanted them positioned as nonhuman. However, it’s almost like they can’t be discussed at all sometimes. Can only talk about dating with autism or doing survivor.

RFK is implying they don't.
I didn’t suggest that people don’t deserve help. In fact, I specifically said I don’t like RFK.
But you have to understand that RFK (and his "ilk") don't care. They're not concerned about that. They just think it's awful and needs to be purged.
That's always how it ends
That's the underlying belief that these goblins do not agree with
