  1. This is an actual fucking list. My son is autistic, and he doesn’t have a disease. He doesn’t need to be a fucking list.

    This is 100% blatant fascism. There is no way to deny or cover this up. This is fucked up in so many ways.

  2. This means crackpots like Dr. Stella Immanuel.

    >
    The NIH is also working on an agreement to secure Medicare and Medicaid data, according to Bhattacharya, who said that **select outside researchers** will be able to access and study, but not download, the collected data from the registry.

  3. People keep forgetting that in a certain european nation in the 30s. People were initially put on a list. Then they got nifty tattoos. Then they showered together. Then they became a critical part of an awful place in history that is being repeated right now. Like right now. While your nation sits and accepts it and claims “there is no comparison”

    it started with a list and we know how it ended

  4. My husband has a cousin that is autistic.  He’s smart and graduated from college but he has a hard time socially. Unfortunately his parents love trump, like gargle his balls love him. Hope this wakes them up, otherwise we will offer to him that he can come live at our house,  even secretly if needed. He deserves to be safe from parents that would offer him to the wellness farms Bobby brainworm wants.

  5. Because nothing has ever gone wrong when a totalitarian leaning government starts making lists of what it considers “undesirables”.

  6. Yeah that’s it, time to invest in a gun. They’re not coming for my partner.

  7. As the parent of a child with autism this just pisses me off, even though I’m not American. The steps to eugenics are getting smaller and smaller.

  8. Bobby brain worms is doing a thinly veiled version of Law for the Prevention of Hereditarily Diseased Offspring or hitler knows it better as Gesetz zur Verhütung erbkranken Nachwuchses. This is only the beginning.

  9. Autism is the “first they came for” in the neurodivergent category. If JFK Jr is just looking around the room after seeing Elon he’ll probably see Ye next and the bipolar list will begin.

  10. I’m autistic. Come and get me you fucking brain worm turd.

  11. Breast cancer diagnosis rose by over 300% between 1973 and 1992. Mammograms were implemented for breast screening in 1976. Prevalence can absolutely be a function of improved ability to diagnose something. Why can’t RFK Jr. get that through his worm-eaten skull?

  12. Contacting the ACLU. Hoping there is a way to block this before it gets too much momentum.

  13. This is fascism. It is EXACTLY what Hitler did. The ACLU will sue. Make a donation to them today. They are going to need to hire more staff.

  14. Autism rates will go down because parents won’t take their kids to get tested for fear of negative aftermath from the government or insurance companies. Of course this prick and Trump will take credit for decreasing autism rates. This is so fucked

  15. Autistic people are more productive and intelligent than you , RFK.

  16. This can only end well, registering people? But we can’t register guns because it limits gun rights!

  17. I’m so glad this administration is finally correcting all that intrusive government overreach instituted by the left!

    /s

  18. Do NOT call it a “disease” registry. Autism is not a disease!

  19. Can’t have a gun registry but tracking who these people think are undesireables….hell yes!

  20. How soon before they have to sew a puzzle piece onto their clothing to identify them? How soon before they are bricked inside ghettos? How soon before Aktion T4 2.0? How soon before….

  21. Bet you Elon Musk wont be on the list despite him being on the spectrum.

    Curious if brain worms or heroin use cause autism or not, too. May want to put RFK Jr on the list too just to be safe.

  22. Remember when the GOP hated lists and every conspiracy dealt with them having a list.

    And that’s why they fought for the 2nd amendment.

    Fuck the GOP. On your knees begging to be culled.

  23. > People with mental and physical disabilities were among the first targets of the Nazi regime. Several years before the Nazis devised a “final solution” for Europe’s Jews, they had already begun sorting their citizens by ability and claiming the Reich had no place for people who were different. Nazi doctors and psychiatrists led the charge, endeavoring to mold certain “autistic” children into productive citizens while sending others to be murdered at Special Children’s Wards throughout the Reich.

    You don’t want to be different.

  24. What the fuck? They going to track us like sheep? Someone gun down this whole administration PLEASE

  25. First come the lists and the dehumanization. Then the camps.

  26. Ah yes I knew Eugenics would eventually crop up as it typically does in fascist regimes

  27. Didn’t the Nazis kill all people with genetic issues? Even German born?

  28. my son was evaluated by a school autism specialist and diagnosed with asperger’s. he got support within the school district and was fully mainstreamed by the time he was in high school. he now has an AS in computer sciences and is working on a BS in robotics. he is completely independent.

    I chose not to pursue a medical diagnosis for him because I was worried about the stigma it might carry. I had no clue that I was also protecting him from a government registry.

    this is insane.

  29. They’re registering the Jews, but nothing to see here.

  30. I can’t take this shit anymore. I really can’t. I will never forgive or talk to anyone who ever supported any of the people in this regime. I will not “unite” with people who cheer for destroying the constitution, for sending people to death camps, and for harassing and terrorizing innocent people. I feel like I’m going insane with how horribly we are spiraling out of control and nobody is fucking stopping it. Congress won’t stop it, SCOTUS enabled it with the “immunity” ruling, there are no brakes. People are just letting it happen and some of us are watching hopeless and helpless while others ignore or root for it. I give up.

  31. My heart is breaking for every parent now facing the choice of having their child tested so that they can get them the proper care or keeping their child off the list.

  32. My son and I are autistic. Neither of us have a disease and are living productive lives.

    Fuck this entire administration.
