A non-autistic ally reportedly thinks it’s vital that you understand that when RFK Jr. gets eugenicsy about autism, he means those other ones – not you.
Karen Hoyland, 60, wants to reassure you that you have nothing to worry about when it comes to the US Health Secretary’s rhetoric, as he means the SEVERE autistics. You know, the really tragic ones.
In a lengthy and emoji-laden Facebook post, Hoyland explained: “There are actually people with autism, like you, who are basically normal. I don’t think he’s talking about those ones.”
“Eugenics is a very strong word,” Hoyland continued. “And a very big word for someone like you. You must be very mild.”
“Anyway, all he’s said he’ll do is send people with autism to a lovely farm where they‘ll have plenty of room to run around. Doesn’t that sound lovely? 💙🧩🐴🐔🐷🚜”
You commented: “There’s so much to unpack here I don’t even know where to begin.”
