Excellent news. Autism finally squared away. We can dedicate our scientists to finding a cure for trumpism.

most pregnant women have been taking folic acid supplements for 40 years.
Look it works, I have never seen a pregnant autist. Check mate!
... /s
I keep forgetting to comment this, but does anyone else remember RFK jr setting a September deadline for "curing Autism"? Like, I remember it being a big deal at the time because that's not really how science works. Right wingers tried to contrast it with Biden claiming he would find a cure for cancer, but he didn't set himself an arbitrary deadline to make that happen.
How suspicious is it that he nailed his deadline window for discovering the "cause" and now has a bogus cure in the chamber as well? Nevermind the fact that they don't provide any actual evidence of any of these claims.
That's what happens when a snake oil salesman is given a government job.
Draining the Swamp so they can Milk the Snake 🤯
Milking snakes, you say?
insert busty furry snake
Is it still a furry if it has scales?
And when these MAGA morons give their autistic kid "the cure" and it doesn't work they'll blame democrats for "tainting it" or some stupid bullshit idk I fucking hate it here
They don't think [the rest of this post has been omitted for being redundant]
Everyone knows we're not coming back from this, right?
Pandora's Box is open. Cat is out of the bag. Genie is out of the bottle.
Bury all these fucks 6 feet under and it's still already too late. The institutions have been weakened. Brains have been rotted. Copycats will step up to fill the vacuum. Congress is still infected. It's over.
It'll be like the end of Return of The King. It'll take a while, but it's still the ending.
Honestly, I blame Ophra Winfrey for propping up that quack TV host.
The behind the bastards episodes on Oprah were enlightening
After the Oprah episodes they did a compilation episode of all of the bastards Oprah gave us that they'd previously covered, including Dr Phil. It was like 9 hours long. I couldn't finish it.
Phil McGraw, I like to point out has a bad reputation and still got a prime time drama about his career on CBS called Bull.
There are been allegations that the work environment on the set of his talk show was toxic for those working on it. On top of that, there had been allegations that guest who were on certain types of medications would have it withheld before taping. Separate from this there was allegations that guest would often be given alcohol and illicit drugs before taping.
I’ve only watched like five minutes of this show ever, where a mother tried reaching out to her daughter that was engaged in sex work. She wanted to get her daughter to stop the sex work. Everything McGraw said was vile and victim blaming about the daughter’s lifestyle. It was utterly disgusting.
Anyway what about the epstein files?
The was quite literally the playbook of Andrew Wakefield when he published the 1998 fraudulent paper in the Lancet that purported to link MMR vaccines to autism, kicking off our entire modern round of anti-vax nonsense.
He stood to make millions selling test kits to people suddenly fearful of vaccination, IIRC. They're all scum, seeking to rake in money on the very fears they've stoked.
The entire antivaxx movement has 7 people at its core, all of whom have something to sell.
Speed running government distrust so they can begin auctioning off the public sector and taking their sweet cut
Wait iHerb is a Dr. Oz company? Dang, I've used them several times, gotta remember to avoid them in the future
It's a really bad move by iHerb. They made him a brand ambassador or some shit in 2023. The company was doing fine then they had to get in bed with Brainworms' buddy.
You can find all sorts of info on the press releases. Bunch of really lame brain marketing bullshit.
It is men taking power over women and deciding how they should be treated. What else to expect from a rapist?
Could have been worse, like realizing it's genetic and issuing mandatory sterilizations to both the autistic people and their parents.
There's still time!
It's like they're trying to be fascists but they're so bad at it. All they can do is run around and jerk each other off while telling their goons to go harrass minorities
Apparently someone of Kenvue Inc. (owner of the Tylenol brand) forgot to pay the bribe.
Next week it will be some random product that Bayer makes that may or may not be linked to autism.
Not iHerb! That’s my go to shop. Any alternative to recommend?
I know! Is the only way to get decent peanut butter in some countries. Guess I'm going to have to learn how to make peanut butter.
I knew it was gonna be dumb, but fuck-a-duck! I was not expecting fucking Tylanol to get blamed
Finally we are seeing real American healthcare. This was never about healing or helping people and this is the real reason why we make so much drugs.
Ugh, and folinic acid is just a vitamin that can, in some cases and conditions, help with some language processing issues.
Like it can help with apraxia. It's not a cure for autism. Or anything.
It’s just a vitamin. Like taking vitamin E against cancer. You couldn’t make this shit up.
Just waiting for him to start pushing Forsynthia as the cure to measles.
What the hell are those faint watermark looking things on the image?
smudgey bulletproof glass
Damn I guess someone has a transparent browser window and didnt realize their desktop could be seen in the screen shot lol good eyes
No over the whole screenshot. Open the full image, it's a lot of text
So are they going to ban Tylenol or what? Isn't it one of the most common OTC painkillers?
I believe they say it's only for the pregnant mothers taking it causing autism to their unborn babies.
This perfectly fits into all MAGA's Project 2025 tenants:
- Women don't matter and Women's healthcare should be reduced and their bodies controlled
- Don't care about babies that have been born, just the unborn ones
- Blame things without any evidence to enforce solutions that profit the companies who pay into the administration and people who have been appointed there.
Don't forget children! So many kids are going to get brain damage or die because Trump just went up with a bunch of disgraced doctors and told people not to give any fever reducers unless absolutely necessary
Sorry, only cocaine from now.
