Why is this 70 year old guy so obsessed with something he knows nothing about? Why name Tylenol the “cause” of autism when he obviously wants to say its vaccines?
I get that the underlying goal of MAHA is eugenics, but I just don’t get why or this angle. I haven’t come across much really talking about it. Everything is focused on the fact that its obviously ridiculous that Tylenol (or anything) causes autism, but what is the obession with finding this nonexistent cause?
The reason why he’s going for Tylenol over vaccines is because acetaminophen taken during pregnancy is correlated to autism, whereas there’s no link of any kind for vaccines. It’s easier to defend and get individual doctors to suggest not taking acetaminophen while pregnant.
Autism is heritable and these fascist weirdos seem to be really in denial about this fact.
The tylenol-autism link actually seems to be that autistic people report higher pain during pregnancy than allistic people.
Tylenol is one of the only painkillers that can be (or previously could be) recommended during pregnancy.
So just how much of every current problem is caused or exacerbated because capitalism has hyper normalized and abladed all the structures that gave firmness to reality while also feeding us individualism?
Cause sometimes it feels like an awful lot of them are.
it’s very weakly correlated in boys but not in girls and not in all children as a cohort or some shit. it’s dumb on top of dumb, including that acetaminophen is really toxic for how weak it is.
