What can any one of us do about it?

Well, we have an opportunity to point out that being autistic or ADHD or otherwise neurodiverse is a gift that should be respected and appreciated, not feared.

Leading to higher rates of childhood illnesses, sicker (and therefore poorer) communities, and other systemic societal consequences.

However, the nuance that many will miss is that correlation does NOT equal causation. That means one cannot ethically demonstrably prove that v*x will CAUSE autism.

Due to short attention spans and social media, sadly this nuance will get missed and it’ll perpetuate the fear cycle…

It wouldn’t surprise me one bit if there are studies showing v*x are correlated with autism… because there’s also evidence that well-educated people are more likely to get v*xxed, and many well-educated people succeed because of their neurodiversity like autism and ADHD, not in spite of.

Conveniently when the annual flu and Covid vaccines are usually available to the general public, what a wildly coincidental timeline

have accidentally been given “write” access to the U.S. Treasury payment system”?

Oh yes, great opsec move. /s
