AnarchoNinaAnalyzesAfter watching Robert F. Kennedy Jr. spout ableism and eugenic theory on live TV while lying about and dehumanizing folks with autism, I'm alarmed that the story here appears to be "wow RFK Jr is a total crank" What it should be is that everything about RFK Jr’s sham HHS study into the “causes” of autism is a reactionary eugenicist nightmare that threatens the health & lives of autistic people, particular children.<a href="https://www.ninaillingworth.com/2025/04/18/nina-bytes-kennedy-conspiracies-and-kids/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.ninaillingworth.com/2025/04/18/nina-bytes-kennedy-conspiracies-and-kids/</a>Nina-Bytes: Kennedy, Conspiracies, and Kids"Reading this piece, two things immediately sprung to mind. First, I wouldn’t let Robert F. Kennedy Jr within ten feet of any child whatsoever if I had the ability to prevent it. Secondly; are we sure putting RFK Jr. in charge of Health and Human Services isn’t just a way to let some sadistic eugenicist freaks torture autistic children and profit from it? Because from out here, it sure does seem like that’s Kennedy’s plan and the reason for his department’s “massive testing and research” effort. I’m not a scientist, but somehow I doubt that conspiracy crank Kennedy and a fake doctor whose family business is apparently torturing children have the best interests of autistic Americans at heart; particularly when Kennedy is openly promoting the eugenicist idea that autism is an “epidemic” that is “destroying our children.”<a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Fascism</a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/TrumpRegime" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TrumpRegime</a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/RFKJr" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RFKJr</a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Autism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Autism</a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Eugenics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Eugenics</a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Ableism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Ableism</a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/HHS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HHS</a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/ConspiracyTheories" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ConspiracyTheories</a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/AntiVax" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AntiVax</a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Vaccines" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Vaccines</a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Eliminationism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Eliminationism</a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Grift" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Grift</a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/USPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#USPol</a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Healthcare" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Healthcare</a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Nazis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Nazis</a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/DavidGeier" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DavidGeier</a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Kennedy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Kennedy</a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/AmandaMarcotte" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AmandaMarcotte</a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Salon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Salon</a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Blog" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Blog</a>

Sally StrangeAs Amanda Marcotte hits the limits of her ability to parse politics, refusing to blame the Democratic Party for their unforced errors in favor of castigating voters for their delusions and bad choices, let me remind you that she once advocated for the coercive imprisonment of rape victims who did not wish to press charges. Because that would totally solve the problem of un-prosecuted sexual assault. Afaik she never retracted that. Pay attention when people choose to blame ordinary folks instead of the rich and powerful. <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/RapeCulture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#RapeCulture</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/USpol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#USpol</a> <a href="https://eldritch.cafe/tags/AmandaMarcotte" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AmandaMarcotte</a>
