Do you ever think that maybe a diagnosis you received may have come back to bite you?

    I’m on the autism spectrum, with very low support needs. My health care provider has that in my medical records. Now I’m worried that I’m going to disappear into some camp, and my wife will never know what happened.

        RFKjr is setting up a national autism registration and he’s already proposed to send neurodivergent people to farms. It’s pure Nazi eugenics.

          I did a search, and discovered articles pointing to sending addicts to farms. I couldn’t find anything similar for neurodivergent people.

          Can you link something?

              The article specifically states that the reason for getting this info is to link with other datasets to look for causes for the increase in autism cases.

              “Linking CMS claims data with a secure real-world NIH data platform, fully compliant with privacy and security laws, will unlock landmark research into the complex factors that drive autism and chronic disease — ultimately delivering superior health outcomes to the Americans we serve,” he said.

              It makes no mention of farms for neurodivergent people. That’s some nonsense.

                  Where do yall come up with this stuff, and do you actually believe it? He’s attempting to find the CAUSE of autism by joining datasets. Any mention of CURE would be in the context of curing society of the problems causing it. That’s all.

                  I swear yall are either master misinfo spreaders or so blind across party lines that you don’t use your brains or something.
