Autism researchers and advocates in the United States are pushing back against the creation of an autism database that is meant to track the health of autistic people in a major research study.
There isn’t a slippery slope. They are doing it. Do you need an executive order called “WE’RE DOING EUGENICS”…
I’m tired of the edging. The perpetual brink of disaster. It’s here. There are no more red lines. We passed them a long time ago. This is authoritarian America. They are doing the things. Enough with the edging.
im climaxing from fascism!
One of the dangers of pretending the only victims of the Holocaust were Jewish, is it ignores loads of other groups they started with…
LGBTQ, mental/physical disorders, immigrants, etc
There’s this strange belief among right wingers that as long as you don’t go after Jewish people, everything is fine.
So we’re seeing everything happen just like it did 80 years ago.
Gotta cull the weak and undesirables in your pursuit of the Master Race. What did you think it was all about when he made IVF so much easier?
As a Christian, I really wish more people would read history and realize they’re wielding a double-edged sword… I wonder how many conservatives have The Hiding Place on their shelf?
This is eventually for all mental health diagnoses. He’s already floated the idea that people “addicted” to antidepressants will find new purpose on “wellness farms”. Out with migrant labor in with the new “mental” caste.
With the way Antisocial Personality Disorder is worded…
If Nazis were in power and you said you’d be ok punching a Nazi to stop them from deporting a US citizen to a death camp…
You just qualified for a diagnosis.
Actually fought back? Even if it was just showing up to a protest?
Also a diagnosis.
And that’s just what would actually qualify as a diagnosis, they’d just lie about all types of shit.
Like, they’re clearly not fans of due process, it’s completely plausible they’d have judges or even “law enforcement” rubber-stamping files and claiming it’s real.
They can (and looks like will) throw any random label on anyone to justify their actions
Anybody resists and we brain-staple them.
the US has been taken over by what is essentially a rehashed version of the business plot, (Read Fascist sympathetic Oligarchs), and you thought we weren’t going to go back down the Eugenics road?
I used to say during the lockdowns “if eugenics even sneaks back into mainstream, it will bo not through crappy doctors waiting the concentration camps to reopen for experimentations, but through gymbros”. The very reason why MAGA voters trust RFK Jr. is due to photos of him being half naked and shredded, so here we are…
Oh hey, finally a “book” I’d burn
I’m a Canadian with autism and I’m terrified that eventually the fascists will come here and come for me
Same here.
Another aspect which is not being discussed - consider with the Cass report, the UK is now requiring that transgender children be evaluated for autism.
There will be a desire to diagnosis transgender men especially as autistic - confused girls who have been “tricked” due to their vulnerability.
This is a Trojan horse for more than eugenics. This will also be used against transgender people - to say that you cannot be trans if you are autistic.
Star Trek is a post-post-apoc setting - the world fought the Eugenics Wars a century before man creates the Warp Drive and estabishes first contact.
The question is, will we have an actual Eugenics Wars that eventually stems from this?
Star Trek started with the Bell Riots in September 2024, so I think we’re a little behind schedule.
