I might be on the spectrum and I have to laugh about it.

"Autism destroys families, and more importantly, it destroys our greatest resource, which is our children. These are children who should not be suffering like this. These are kids who will never pay taxes. They'll never hold a job. They'll never play baseball. They'll never write a poem. They'll never go out on a date. Many of them will never use a toilet unassisted."

Will never pay taxes sort of true in my case. In Germany we have value added taxes though. But it is true I am a financial disaster for the government. But I think this is less related to autism than to the domestic violence I experienced as child. And bipolar. And a combination of all of that.

These are children who should not be suffering like this. This is true though.

They'll never hold a job. In my case true.

They'll never play baseball. I played in on my playstation and with my Nintendo Wii.

They'll never write a poem. I had to in school. I should have used autism as an excuse.

They'll never go out on a date. I had some dates and we even had webcam sex God damn it. Fuck you Mister.

Many of them will never use a toilet unassisted. Well I am pretty skilled at taking a shit without help.

It's such a joke... I'm in the UK so not really affected, but the shit he's spewing really is laughable.

I mean, I can hold a job, two in fact, kind of... on and off, also who tf likes baseball...
My special interest is English and writing and hell anyone can write a poem.

I think RFK Jr.'s special interest is autism... is he... autistic? (Sure, hope not that would be an insult to all of us)

extremely patronizing at best and leaning into eugenics at the very worst. i have autistic family and friends who have done WAY MORE than my depressed ass ever could. and i know enough of em thatd be more than happy to take a fat shit on this dude's lawn without help (joking of course)

anyways if anyone's interested in a documentary about the ADA and what disabled folks can do for themselves, here's a nice link, its called crip camp and it's on netflix too:

it doesn't make any logical sense with his arguments because can't you say that about.. well all diseases? kids with cancer might never play baseball, old people can't do much of anything when they get old should we find the cure to aging? japan has the highest rates of autism in the world i believe, but their food and other suspected factors seem better than the US. such an idiotic man in such a high place of power

It is fairly telling, though, that "being unable to pay taxes" is very high on his list. If you aren't able or willing to be a cog in the machine that benefits the power-brokers, then you are useless to them. That's almost all you need to know.

I guess he's being honest- labelling children as resources but God, how depressing.

I do know of people with very severe autism and, his description I suppose is accurate for them but, it's a huge scale.

I've heard of it being described in some cases as a 'super power'- although, I can understand how insulting that must be to someone who is suffering, rather than 'benefitting'.

I wonder in some instances if it can be similar to dyslexia in terms of other things compensating. Throughout (art) college, there were often people with dyslexia in the group and, they seemed to have something extra special about their artistic talent. It's weird the way the body sometimes compensates. Sadly, not for all though- I'm sure. I'm not trying to belittle sufferers.

But yeah, it's ridiculous for someone to use such broad strokes to describe a condition that obviously has many nuances.
