Autism researchers and advocates in the United States are pushing back against the creation of an autism database that is meant to track the health of autistic people in a major research study.

    because in order to do eugenics with that database, RFK would have to believe that autism is genetic - which it is, but which he doesn’t believe.

    I don’t know why people still think fascists give a shit.

    This shouldn’t be funny, because that glaring contradiction will be ignored, and talking about it is a waste of time.

      I don’t think that RFK Jr. is personally a fascist. He’s in league with fascists, which is the main reason why I am still heavily against the autism registry.

      I think that RFK Jr. is extremely mentally ill and deluded. I think he is probably a true believer in what he says, it’s just that the stuff he believes is batshit insane (and can do a lot of damage because of that).

        That makes him a fascist.

        If you walk into a room and sit at a table with 9 fascists, then you’ve got a table with 10 fascists.
