Summary

RFK Jr. is using private medical records to create a registry of people with autism in the United States.

The National Institutes of Health is helping to collect private medical records from government and commercial databases, including “prescription records from pharmacies, lab testing, and genomics records from the Department of Veterans Affairs and Indian Health Service, private insurance claims, and data from smartwatches and fitness trackers.”

Kennedy, a longtime critic of vaccination, has made the study of autism one of HHS’s primary goals. He has called autism “preventable” and claimed “he can find a cure for the condition by September.”

    I want Yarvin to be dancing a jig at the end of a rope. People like him are responsible for the descent of America into madness.

      I want Yarvin to be dancing a jig at the end of a rope.

      That’s exactly what he’s afraid of. The post referenced in this, is from Yarvin’s own Substack, Gray Mirror, titled "Barbarians and Mandarins ", and Yarvin references a method for killing off bird populations called “foam depopulation”, whereby an area is filled with foam that suffocates birds in large numbers. It seems that Yarvin fears, that if Trump and Co. cannot successfully pull off his dream, that he will be killed by the very same methods that he wishes done to others.
