Apparently RFK is trying to walk back his bullshit comments by saying he doesn't mean autistics like me are bad and awful and need to be irradicated; no, he just wants to get rid of the "low functioning" autistics and let me just say FUCK THAT I'm not more worthy of existing than autistics who 1/

This is really worrisome. Hernández Romero was classified as a gang member because he has tattoos that say “mom” and “dad” with crowns. No one has heard from Hernández Romero, who has no documented history of criminal activity, since March 14. “We’ve had no proof of life in over a month.”

Here's a tariff. Here's a deportation. Here's a Christian nationalist order. Here's the defunding of schools and libraries and museums and medical research. Here's higher prices on every good. Here's a cut to gut childcare. Here's soaring rents and stagnant wages. Are we great yet?

In 2011, a man experimented on autistic children by injecting them with puberty blockers. He was charged with practicing medicine without a license. RFK Jr. has hired that man and is giving him taxpayer money and access to your children's records, whether you like it or not.

Toxicologist here! This will improve the health of zero Americans. Current synthetic food dyes are not causing health problems, and are often times used because they are actually safer than natural food dyes. Reminder that guns are the #1 cause of death of children but we are going to ban food dyes.

My older relative on how they treated what he understands now to have been his childhood autism: they tried to beat it out of me. At school, at home. That was the “treatment.” They tried to beat me back to normal. Didn’t work.

Caroline Kennedy described her cousin as a "predator" who craves money and power above all else and is willing to hurt anyone-especially children--to get what he wants, which begs the question: How does RFK Jr. plan to profit off of kids with autism? www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

How do we get this snake oil salesman out of our government? It’s worse than ignorance. It’s ignorance coupled with apathy about whether this misinformation is destructive. Which it is. And he’s perfectly fine with hurting people. I can’t even wrap my brain around this kind of careless cruelty!

It would be really cool if those of us who are not autistic recognized how brains can all work differently and that just because someone else’s brain doesn’t work like ours doesn’t mean there’s something wrong with it. We made it as a species because of neurodiversity. It’s always been there.
