    The US government is gathering up as much data on who’s autistic for research apparently.

        There isn’t any evidence I’ve seen to support that but I think it is very worrying to many as it is hard to know what the data will be used for. We are talking about a guy who called Autism a epidemic and I think some are fearful that the “cure” involves violence and genocide.

        As always, do your own research and come to your own conclusions
