Autistic researchers and advocates say they are significantly less interested in the “causes” of autism – which decades of research have shown to have a strong connection to genetics – than in support services and research on issues that would improve their quality of life.

    Would I be right in saying that autistic people want the Trump regime to fuck off, like every other group that stands to suffer from their actions?

      Yeah I know what their fucking game is. I would prefer they went back to not thinking we exist but there doesn’t seem to be any putting THAT particular crackhead back into rehab.

      I wouldn’t say “only”. There are plenty of other ways to harm people with that information.

      I still can’t think of a way to help people with it though.

      Don’t forget controlling and terrorizing women. A big aspect would be to punish women who take Tylenol during their pregnancy - possibly charge them with crimes, or use it as an excuse to take children away…
