Glad to see NBC referring it to DISCREDITED but DEBUNKED would be more accurate since it was fraudulent from the start and not just an inaccurate hypothesis. #AutisticActually #NothingAboutUsWithoutUs
Autism advocates say they are fearful that if RFK Jr. is confirmed, it could undermine years of progress in unlinking autism and vaccines, while potentially diverting research dollars to a theory already discredited by hundreds of studies worldwide.
Autism community fears RFK Jr. would set back decades of progress
Advocates worry that as HHS secretary, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. could undermine years of work to unlink autism and vaccines and divert precious research dollars to a discredited theory.

The simple answer is that awareness, understanding, and acceptance of Autism has increased over time.

this one time we bought this LARGE tray of a variety of pastries. I asked my kid (then 6) which one they wanted to try first. There were 5-6 rows, each its own flavor. They pointed to the leftmost flavor and said “I want to go in order!” and I’ve gotta say I was bursting with pride #AutisticActually

To me it carries the same intended meaning as the actually-first was meant to
But removes a bit of scold and suggests enlightening the audience.
But I’m highly particular with language 😅

I had a man with the audacity to try to physically intimidate me on my own porch and he was STEAMING mad (about problems of his own making)
And I was just like “hey, Kev. You alright? You seem out of sorts.”
I think he had a minor stroke. I watched him implode and storm off.
It was delicious. 🤌🏻

Thought at first I might just keep it secret. Concluded that people work it out soon enough anyway, so might as well own it.
