An actual scientist claiming the word "retardation" was a pejorative term when it was used in a medical setting? This guy is brain-dead. That term only became pejorative when the progressive left decided it was offensive long after it was used medically. I don't trust a single scientist alive anymore.
This guy's job is gaslighting people for the pharmaceutical industry.
First few seconds all that I head was "I make diseases for poor people."
Eat more chicken.
The reason we consider autism a disorder is because those with autism, especially those with severe autism, have a lot of co-occurring issues that affect their quality of life. It’s not that we don’t accept or love them as who they are. It’s that we want them to be happy and healthy. I think this whole thing about not calling it a disorder is actually the worst form of gaslighting. Trying to normalize it so that the skyrocketing numbers don’t seem so bad. It’s not normal for a kid to not be able to go outside because just the sound of outside causes sever distress. It’s not normal to feel so dysregulated you bang your head against a wall for relief. The average life expectancy is significantly shorter for those with autism, 36 years old. 30% of people with autism have epilepsy compared to 2% of the general population. 40% of people with autism are non verbal. We wouldn’t say just accept someone with diabetes and don’t say they have a disorder then not treat it. So why do that with autism. It’s evil in my opinion.
