“No one in my generation had autism”
Sure thing. Uncle Barry, who collects every issue of Mechanics Monthly, and has spent over $10,000 on his model train set that is a perfect scale recreation of King’s Cross Station, is completely neurotypical.
and shoots steroids regurlarly, and is obssesed with playing with animal carcasses.
The moment has reignited broader concerns about Kennedy’s qualifications and judgment…
He has no qualifications and an exactly equivalent amount of judgement.
🙄 🤡 🖕 🖕
He may have 0 qualifications, but I wouldn’t say his judgement is exactly equivalent. His judgment goes much more into the negatives, since everything he says and every decision he makes is actively causing harm. We would be better off simply having the role vacant, or giving the job to someone in a coma.
Ironically, even the most profoundly autistic people, the ones that resemble his characterization of the condition, would still be better at the job than he is.
He is a cis white male. Pretty sure thats all the qualifications he needs unless you are one of those “woke” people who think we should have experts running things.
his worms are doing all the talking./
Narrator: Indeed, he can
Methinks the “doctors” fucked up his so-called brain worm incident…
Evidently, they removed what there was of the brain and left the decaying dead worm in its place.
🤷♂️
It’s not doctor’s. Dude spent his life eating trash at the dump and no I don’t mean that figuratively.
or the parasites are still alive, parts of his brain “died” and the worms have replaced those parts.
I read that in the voice of Ron Howard
The lady doth protest too much… I’m calling it now, some psychiatrist tried to diagnose Rfk Jr with autism and he lost his fucking shit about it. I mean the dudes been obsessed with dead animals since he was a child always been known as “eccentric”.
Plenty of older people have ASD. I know a couple personally. They have childhood stories of being beaten, yelled at, difficulty with teachers and peers. They claim to be fine today, but telling horror stories of your trauma as a kid really says otherwise. If ASD was bad enough to be “retarded”, they were kept from society and/or put in State Homes. RFK is ADHD, and the only thing that kept him out of jails due to the untreated effects when he was younger is hs family name and wealth.
One of Donald’s cabinet? Unfit?!?
Again?
“Have you ever seen anyone…71 years old, with full-blown autism?” Kennedy asked. “Head-banging, nonverbal, non-toilet trained, spinning, toe-walking…these other stereotypical features?”
“Where are these people walking around the mall? You can’t find them,” he said. “They’re not in homes, there are no homes for them, there are no institutions… anybody can look around and see that this is a canard.”
I keep seeing the Forest Gump quote overlayed over him whenever I see one of his posts, “I am not a bright man.”
Also, there very much are older people like this. My mother worked with severe people my entire life. The elder autistic exist.
When I was very, very little, I remember my mom saying that they’re shutting down all of the institutions and she was worried about where they would all go. I didn’t really get what she meant at the time, now I get it.
Nowadays it wouldn’t be as much of a problem as they could all just get senior leadership positions in the Trump administration
Nah, overqualified.
A friend of mine learned she had adhd at 65, and autism very recently at ~78. She said that her behavior and interests finally make sense.
‘He Cannot Be This Stupid’
He’s even more stupid than they are acknowledging.
Yes, I was going to post “hearing CAN be that stupid”.
Short answer: if they got it bad, they’re dead or in a nursing home. That’s why they aren’t walking in a mall. They ran out of health.
Long answer: in recent times, there seems to be lower threshold of diagnosis.
But if he truly thinks he can pinpoint exposures that increase autism - things like the exposure to tetraethyl lead which probably increased criminality and decreased mental health - good luck for combing scientific studies. There may be some. But if he’s gonna rewind the age old “vaccines cause” record and replay it, nah, I won’t be listening.
They’re going to blame flouride for sure
Way too many rural (i.e. well water) cases for that to even make a good scapegoat.
Hey, that 65 year old neighbor with the $200k model trainset? Yeah, probably autistic.
But in his defense, trains are cool.
Absolutely.

Nothing will meaningfully improve until the rich fear for their lives
Congress too, we need them to step down. The rich are afraid of taxes, congress needs to be more afraid of us than they are of taxing the rich. they still need to get food. They still have family that live in our communities. They should feel as safe as an illegal immigrant smuggling thought crimes across the border.
Touted ‘Unfit’
By senators prior to his appointment?
No, by some anonymous posts on social media last week
So will this result in any actual consequences?
Absolutely not
Great
Are people just realizing now that he’s unfit for his job?
Yeah. That’s how stupid America really is. Worse than Carlin ever thought possible.
