They really do want to destroy all autistic people.
Ummmmmmm
This is an AI device that “hunts for biomarkers related to drug responses” and “pathologies such as autism”

A really important finding is that well over half of people in poverty in the UK (54%) live in a family that includes a disabled person.
In 2022/23, there were 8.7 million people in poverty who are disabled themselves, or who live with a disabled person, up from 6.9 million in 2019/20.

There's a deep sense of sadness and loneliness seeing this record shattering graph.
November 17, 2023 was the first day in recorded history when the earth's surface was a whole 2°C hotter than pre-industrial times. Yet, there's barely any chatter about this staggering breach.
