I think it’s really important to question how many of you/us are afraid of autism, and how looking for causes allows us/ traps us in a state of fear, and prevents people from moving deeper into the understanding that will inevitably reduce the fear.

I would argue that a lot of the arguments described here and in the comments are really rooted in fear of autism, or rather fear of never being able to understand autism.

It’s important because there will always be autistic people, and it’s so sad that so many people will justify de-humanizing them whilst burying themselves in the endless quest to prove what causes their difference, as if that somehow makes it ok that they are de-humanizing autistic people and stigmatizing them. I imagine a lot of these people are also afraid of Down’s sydrome, or William’s syndrome, and lots of other differences. And this is how eugenics works. It points to difference as the undoing of society, and then attempts to justify violence and oppression towards people with those differences - violence and oppression that naturally results from the fear of difference.

I often find that the people who are afraid of difference, and so are very motivated to track down the causes and erase it, are also the same people who are afraid of a pregnant woman having autonomy over her body, and the baby living inside her body. Because pro-life campaigners are not so often so anti-abortion minded when it comes to a baby who has a disability.

What is going on with ending mandates for vaccines for daycare? That’s the biggest issue for my children and their kids, plus friends. The women are working and the kids need to be in daycare and the daycare mandate vaccines. They can’t afford to not work, or being feminists, the mothers want to work. Any suggestions? It’s so scary to not have a choice in the matter.

excellent article, I'd only change " global monopoly capitalism " to "global monopoly corporatism" - capitalism has nothing to do with this. Corporatism (collusion of biz and gov) does.

When will this autism nightmare end?

Podstawą zachowania zdrowia jest po prostu unikanie kontaktu z lekarzem. Tak zwane choroby są procesem zdrowienia i nie należy ich w żaden sposób tłumić chemikaliami, które nazwano dla niepoznaki lekami (substancjami leczniczymi). Wiemy już doskonale że służba zdrowia nie istnieje, to jest przemysł chorobowy. Przemysł ten wciąż stwarza nowe choroby, stara się je utrzymać i udaje, że je leczy tłumiąc tylko objawy, w żaden sposób nie docierając do przyczyn. Choroby są najczęściej detoxem, one oczyszczają organizm z toksyn, metali ciężkich, śluzu itp. Np tzw grypa ma na celu oczyszczenie nas ze śluzu, którego nagromadzenie się wynika głównie z diety, dlatego właśnie mamy katar, kaszel, gorączkę i inne znane objawy. Dlaczego nie ma leku na grypę? Bo to grypa jest lekarstwem o ile się nie tłumi objawów. Jedyne co warto zrobić to wspomóc organizm w oczyszczaniu się (samouzdrawianiu), odpocząć, wypocić się, zrobić post, autofagię np. 36/12, głodówkę, post urynowy (w urynie są komórki macierzyste) etc. Jeszcze jedna ważna informacja, nie możesz WALCZYĆ z chorobą (ani z niczym innym), masz ją zrozumieć i pokochać. Walcząc zawsze dajesz energię temu z czym walczysz. "walczą dwa wilki, biały i czarny, który wygrywa? Odpowiedź - ten którego karmisz"

This documentary is the “why”. Not all inclusive, of course, but they did a really good job.

Highest risk: Could also include tonsil removal.

There would probably be a different autism rate inside a highest group study, comparing those with tonsils v. those who had their tonsils removed. The role of tonsils regulating/"detoxifying" (metabolizing) many of the other hazards enumerated in your list might have an impact on the onset of autism.

Has there been any attention paid to SSRI/SNRI/Benzo use by parents as playing role in autism ?

Wpływ na powstanie autyzmu jest nagromadzenie toksyczności, udział w tym mają również narażenie na źródła promieniowania elektromagnetycznego EMF, Wifi, smartfony, kuchenka mikrofalowa, stacje bazowe telefonii komórkowej, 3G, 4G, 5G, 6G....

From memory, Mr Rogers covers this in his thesis. It increases the risk of autism.

So so so so great Toby!!!!! As the world’s leading expert on the political economy of vaccines and autism, you have given us exactly what we need: the freedom to choose what is right for ourselves and our families without feeling like we need to wait for more studies, more info, or more justification. Thank you!!!!!

I have a 29yo female, white DAUGHTER with profound autism. No tylenol, no SSIs, not

premature, no c-section. Aside from being formula fed, she should not have had any risk factors. Yet here we are. It was the damn vaccines she got 100% in my mind. 6 thimerosal containing vaccines given in 4 months time (between 2 and 6 months old) Oh and no antibiotics either. Zero.

I proved this back in 2002 when we sued Phrma in US District Court for Thimerosal poisoning. They needed Congress to enact the "Lilly Rider" as part of Homeland Security Act. We had enough proof ( preponderance of evidence) to prevail. They knew it. Only "politics" stopped us.

I am a trained warrior. I will be back when due process rights are restored.

Thanks for that interesting stat Steve! Unfortunately, I don't do gods, but I do believe in the sun because, without it, no gods would have been created. Good Luck! Unjabbed Mick (UK).
