How far are we along with “autism is a genetic defect and we are now euthanizing defective humans for the benefit of society” are we?
How else are we supposed to make the pure superior American race? /s
I hope our pharma oligarchs put this trust fund silver spoon drug addict in his place.
Those "report"s should be tagged fairytales
I don’t know Kenvue, but i wish them luck killing RFK Jr. In court.
So something so ludicrously common that it basically can’t be proved. Super.
Did you know that 97% of people killed in car accidents clean their teeth on a regular basis? I think we need to look into that.
100% of people who died drank water
Oddly I don’t think that can be a full 100% due to infant death during or shortly after birth.
100% of people exposed to dihydrogen monoxide eventually die, and sometimes develop an array of diseases and disorders before their inevitable death.
Hey buddy, here’s a little secret. You know what causes autism? Being fucking autistic
Fucking crackpots in charge. This makes Lysenkoism seem sensible in comparison.
That dude is talkin a lot of shit for a guy standing in the “get pushed in front of subway” zone.
Personally I’m expecting him to get shot, not even necessarily for being a shitstain but because he is a Kennedy. If some dumbass can try to kill Reagan to impress Jane Fonda(?) for some reason then someone will want to kill RFK Jr for the meme.
He was trying to impress Jodi Foster. I guess nobody told the chump that she was a lesbian.
Is there a Sirhan Sirhan Jr?
I like this guy. He’s on track to finally pin lung cancer on the tobacco industry. Any day now.

Why are these people so desperate to find some external factor for autism?
Because the religious and/or kooks don’t sit well with the chaos/randomness of life.
Because the anti-vax people who have autistic kids hate their children. They hate that they’re not perfect and “normal”. And they hate that they have to deal with a child that requires more care than other people’s children do.
I think we should make banners and say it out loud to every single person who can hear.
#Anti-vaxxers HATE autistic children
#Especially if that autistic child is their own.
Does RFK have any autistic family? If love to know what triggered his crusade. It can’t just be a belief in pseudoscience.
No, he’s just an old narcissistic psychopath who is bitter because he’s never had the respect that his father and uncles had, from the public, or even his own family, who hate him.
Sigh… here goes: because then they could “fix” it.
i don’t need fixing. I just need support.

They don’t want to fix it, they want to blame the victims for “causing it themselves”.
🛎️ 🛎️ 🛎️
Not so gentle Reminder that republicans don’t help or “fix” anyone period.
Because they can’t cope with random chance, there has to be a cause. They need a villain.
They don’t wanna blame god.
Hardships are a test from god unless that hardship can also speak or act counter to societal norms!
They love Book of Job, but also cherry-picking it.
Why blaming gods for random bullshit is easier on the mind? Random bird take a massive shit on my cars hood? Clearly Odin needs to reign in his ravens.
You get brought up with prosperity gospel and you think that wealth and good fortune are an indicator of holiness and piety. You internalize that shit. And since you worship what you have been told all your life is a loving god, since you do all the things your church tells you to, since you give them 10+% of your income and hate the minorities they tell you to and vote for the fascists they tell you to, you know yourself to be pious.
Understanding that we live in a random universe with no sense of justice is fundamentally incompatible with a belief in an orderly universe governed by a just god. So when you encounter misfortune, you don’t blame God, since you see Him as infallible and perfect. You either blame yourself or start looking for someone to blame.
Which is very useful to people seeking to manipulate hateful credulous people who are convinced of their own righteousness.
Muninn refuses he WILL poop on your car
Is that as those who are punished, in religion, deserve it? However children are innocent and usually autism is diagnosed in young people or children. So, they don’t ‘deserve’ it? If it’s just random, maybe other things are too and the preachers are making stuff up?
It’s a long train of thought to get there. I’d say it’s more just susceptibility to conspiratorial thinking, but who knows.
The parents can get punished by having an autistic child…
I’m confused where this zeitgeist about Tylenol being bad for you is coming from. I remember working in pharmacy that taking Acetaminophen was the least reactive painkiller with the least number of long-term issues, but I’m hearing a lot more people talking about how bad it is for you.
The studies I’ve seen have been correlative at best, and, considering that NSAIDs and opioid painkillers are far worse over time, I don’t understand the dissonance in advice that seems to be appearing.
Is this more “seed oil” nonsense?
I don’t follow this topic regularly and I can’t say anything about the mechanisms. From a superficial search I would claim that there is good evidence that Tylenol use during pregnancy can make the development of asthma in the child more likely. There is also some indication (at least one large cohort study from Icahn medical school) that it may cause delayed language development.
That would be enough evidence for me to discourage use during pregnancy for treatment of discomfort or light pain, when safer options can be tried.
My point is that comparatively, acetaminophen is (or at least was) the safest drug for light pain.
I haven’t seen any new categories of painkiller that would indicate that’s no longer the case, though.
A lot of common over the counter drugs like Tylenol are more risky than people assume, so the idea of one having negative effects on fetal development isn’t out of left field. At the same time, not a single study pushed by this anti science ideologue can ever be trusted without corroboration by independent researchers. The risk of having a bad reaction to common medication nobody bats an eye at is often higher than the vaccines this dumbass rails against, so it’s not like a stopped clock being almost right makes up for his bullshit.
so it’s not like a stopped clock being almost right makes up for his bullshit.
Nice try, Jessica
It’s pretty easy to overdose on Acetaminophen, Wikipedia suggests >100k a year in the us (it’s in so many OTC medication, stuff like cough syrups and the like, really easy to hit the 4g/day max dose)
I’ll still use it, just use it responsibly.
It’s not even a good pain reliever.
I don’t know why it’s so popular.
Ibuprofen/Motrin/Paracetamol works about 100x better.
I thought they put acetaminophen with other drugs to keep from overdosing because it will cause pain if you take to much.
To add to this I’ve heard professionals in my field say if acetaminophen was discovered today it would likely be a controlled substance for this reason alone. The overdose potential is too high. That always seemed like an extreme measure but i can understand it.
Not as easy as aspirin.
Wow, autism turns out to be not only bad but also women’s fault. Amazing what an investigation under the impartial leadership of misogynist neo-Nazis can discover.
The makers of Tylenol are about to sue the shit out of this clown.
Sadly theyre going to sue the shit out of the US government, which we will all be paying for with tax dollars when they win… direct consequence courtesy of the morons who voted for this
Wouldn’t surprise me if Trump or someone else in this admin is good friends with executives at Johnson and Johnson and the whole point is to just give the company massive gift by doing a legal case with high damages and guaranteed loss
???
They could literally just request the government buy more Tylenol for the military industrial complex.
They could just hand it to them for research.
They could put out an ad on the white house lawn like they did for Goya, and Tesla.
They could literally just hand it to them. Do you have any idea how many billions of our dollars go “missing”. Spent but unaccountable.
There are so many other ways to just hand Tylenol money than disparage their product on a global scale.
Sometimes a moron is just a moron…
Can they please just sue Jr. directly instead? Maybe if we ask nicely they will?
Is there only one place that produces all the acetaminophen? He hasn’t named any brands directly that I’m aware but i don’t fallow that weirdo very closely. If he names a big pharm brand directly you know it’s some real market manipulation, right?
They won’t. The knee will bend as always.
In the article it says folinic acid is a treatment for autism. Like…what?
…and they aren’t even calling it Vitamin B9. Big science words. Aren’t they the ones that want to ban any words in food that sound scary? I mean, it’s folic ACID! ACID!!!
