Hi.

Autistic person here

RFK Jr. didn’t “misspeak” when he called autism an “epidemic” that “dwarfs COVID.”
That’s eugenicist rhetoric.

We’re not a disease—we’re people.

The spectrum includes those who need support and those building the future. Diagnoses have expanded because understanding has improved—not because autism is “spreading.”

Dehumanizing us is not health policy. It’s dangerous

@flexghost Here's the thing about cults: they need to have an enemy. Fighting this enemy is the only way they can justify the things they demand of their adherents. If a valid enemy doesn't exist, one must be manufactured.

This is intentional. They don't care who it harms.
