They’ve been researching it for years and he thinks it can be done in months after they cut research funding.

They have absolutely no intention of finding the real causes of autism...only the one's that further their agenda.

No. It's dangerous, insidious, eugenics, fascist, and immoral. Open a dictionary next time. Unrealistic at this point is like calling a hurricane "scattered showers".

His plans are unrealistic. They break privacy laws at every level. He wants to get the poisonous chemicals, fillers, fake sweeteners out of our food?! BIG FOOD spends millions buying politicians to sell “filler” fake food. Trump’s not gonna give him any money to make Americans healthier. Please!! 😅🤣

If they can't find a cause that just means you can't get vaccinated. The longer they can drag that out, the better -- for the anti-vax folks

Many? Isn't that understating the case?

Hi, Fred. Did you maybe intend to reply to a different post?

I think so yes.

He looks like the cause of autism.

We know what doesn’t cause autism - vaccines

“Many”? You mean “all credible” right?

Stupid idea to begin with based on nonsense. Still don't understand how the registry is legal.

Hey, anything is possible when you're led by someone with a worm in their brain.

You mean you can't just make an arbitrary deadline on a medical condition that nobody in the world has solved after decades of research? Who'd of thunk?

They’ve made a lot of progress understanding it better through scientific research that’s been ongoing. Research that will now stop because of the funding chokes. He just wants to be Hitler.

And yet, when literature refers to environmental contributions, we never hear PFAS mentioned … sigh

"Many" autism experts? I'm pretty sure all autism experts are saying this.

He already found it: vaccines. Even though vaccines existed longer than the recognition of autism and it's rise. The guy is a politician not a scientist.

RFK Jr. looks like he smells like rancid beef.

He’s made of jerky.

Is that a fair headline?! How about “Delusional conspiracy theorist with zero training, expertise, or qualifications who leads HHS claims he will identify the cause of Autism.” Stop pretending he has any chance or that his plan is based in reality!

It's genetic, and it's survived through the ages because it's incredibly useful despite the social challenges.

Tell that to the Heroin Addict convinced to find the demons in our blood.

It is basic science that you cannot announce you will find the *cause* of something by date X, let alone when such a date is so soon.

Why isn't RFK in Dead Kennedys?

Oh I think they'll "find" one. Spoiler alert: it will be something that comes from a hypodermic needle.

Who is the expert who says otherwise

Crazy S.O.B

You mean, experts on a complex neurodevelopmental condition don’t think that Whale Carcass McGee’s plan to find its “cause” in a couple months by lumping all autistic people into a big gov’t list is a workable plan? Whoulda thunk it.

No shit.

This doesn’t require an expert.

I've got no problem with trying to find the cause. But I know that any effort led by RFK Jr. is just going to confirm whatever crackpot, quack theory he prefers.

The cause is known.

Maybe they can find the cause of why people vote against their own interests and put their trust in someone who will ruin them. Boggles my mind

What are we doing here AP? It’s an insane, demented claim. Try telling that story.

I’d like to see an exposé on the mental capacities on Trump and his administration.

But maybe cancer by the end of the year ? UGH

RFK is a complete shame to the Kennedy name.

Given this administration is made up of rejects from the “Beverly Hillbillies,” the notion that they tie their own shoes on a daily basis is something that itself needs to be proven. Are there even any notable or even qualified scientists left?

Of course it’s unrealistic. It’s ideological bullshit. It’s insanity.

The plan isn't to find autism's causes... The plan is to lie and say they found autism's causes and that vaccines are bad.

Exactly

And then send us all to concentration camps to be eradicated. This has been done before.

exactly. but add to that a lot of trans people have autism. this registry will NOT be used for good but for eradication. as per the plan.

He’s a heroin addict!!

Why so long? After all, Wakefield fabricated his results long ago. They have been concerned about vaccines from the very beginning.

Not only unrealistic, but a violation of HIPAA and privacy laws. He should not be allowed to take people's data without their consent.

You can’t ‘cure’ genetics and to try to cure autism is to strip humanity of some of the most brilliant minds and successes of history. These people trying to eliminate anyone who isn’t ’like them’ are dangerous narrow minded bigots.

Genetics is one cause

It continues to be astounding our feckless, cowardly national media covers these people like they’re serious statesmen. The demented buffoon running HHS deserves nothing but scorn for his dangerous idiocy. Unrealistic? No shit. Shame on you, @apnews.com. Shame on you every day.

They don't plan to find autism's causes. They plan to blame vaccines. Fewer children dying from diseases normally prevented by vaccination means fewer children with autism. That has to make sense. 🤦‍♂️🤡

bsky.app/profile/torr...

Well of course because none of the scientists and psychiatric professional have ever really done any meaningful or effective research to discover what actually causes autism. They could have been researching what causes brain damage in heroine addicts.

Between the brain worm, mercury poisoning, bear cub carcass incident, whale decapitation, science denial, and just general weirdness, why would anyone think he has anything serious to offer society? He's a joke whose appointment can literally destroy lives.

Kennedy? Unrealistic? How is that even possible? /s

Really easy when he picked the cause before getting the evidence.

Genetic !!!!

Elon musks apartheid

Autism is evolution.

"unrealistic" is not a word choice I would use here. as in, it would be like my 45th choice behind "crazy" or "demented"

Put the money toward inclusion instead! Not everyone’s brains work the same way. He should know that being such an oddball himself! Study brain worms!

some folks are having a really hard time admitting they were very wrong about vaccines causing autism, and have gone to great lengths to be in a position to create the evidence they couldn’t previously find 🌈⭐️

"The cause is wokeness and diversity, which we will eradicate by September. Autism will die in an El Salvador labor camp."

"wellness farm" 🙄

Especially claiming a deadline in advance

What they need to be studying is what makes members of the far right narcissistic assholes with no conscience. That’s a far more pressing problem and they’re more likely to get an answer.

No shit.

So they aren’t convinced Jr will find a ‘cure’ by September? Oh bummer

Let’s tell the real story here. Bobby is a fucking moron.

Not if you already have the result you want!
