| Watching Joe Rogan interview It's a Joe Rogan interview. Please stop normalising this stuff. Thank you. Maybe you missed my point in one of my paragrahs:- Trump referred to the means, the means are connected to RFK Jr. RFK Jr is one of the big 3 in the administration. Trump, Musk , RFK Jr. They hav... |

| None of us really knows what the future holds but as far as I am concerned this is worst development for autistic people since I joined this site in 2013. Maybe he`ll look at his friend Elon and realise the absurdity of the DSMV and order change? Then again given the events in Ukraine recently, we ... |

| Most likely, we'd be repurposing things that are needed to deal with adults with dementia. Sure, there are differences, but a good chunk of the things that would be helpful for autistic adults already have to be developed for the elderly anyways. Plus, if the population really does start to drop in... |

| I don't care much for vaccines since i was born long before the MMR was ever issued. However RFK is right to look at damaging chemicals in our food, water , environment and question big pharma. Its a fact that the US is fatter & sicker than ever and those that make us sick are making big profits... |

| As far as the ID component goes, from what I've seen, there does seem to be a weird bimodal distribution where there's potentially two different distributions sitting on top of each other. Not including AS with ASD would probably have helped a lot in terms of clarity of what we're dealing with in t... |

| Autism diagnosis should be done at 8 and 18. Firstly it would cover many Aspies who are diagnosed as teens (particularly girls), i don't even think these are covered in official diagnosis figures? which are at 8. Secondly it would give the true reading of ID in autism since at 8 years old 25% are in... |

| Its strange how identity politics and tribalism take over in things like this, not just autism but all things, sex, race, sexuality etc... The person could be a complete scum bag but as soon as the magic word associated with the tribe or group comes up they have to be innocent, as people jump to ass... |

| I previously posted this on another thread but decided to re-post it as a topic as its quite apparent strange things are going on that show the fakeness of it all. The other explanation is the US deep state allowed Trump to win. I mean the democrats allowed someone who clearly had symptoms of dement... |

| Not sure what people mean by narrowing of criteria the opposite has happened has it not? Autism merged with Asperger’s Autism now is diagnosed into infinity The only real evidence is Anecdotal. There would be some clues however Many special schools that existed in the 70’s and 80’s are still around... |

| Yes self inflicted wounds Hopefully this will be the end of identity politics. The idea that a job that comes with great responsibility should go to someone not on merit but because they are a woman, black etc.. The idea goes against the very beliefs of Martin L King Is this the best the US could do... |
