Txnewsprincess @txnewsprincess.bsky.social · 11/08/2026*stares in correlation does not imply causation*Aaron Rupar@atrupar.comRFK Jr on autism: "'Oh, we're just noticing it more.' But this is an absurdity ... if we were just noticing it more, we would notice it in older groups. But we're not ... so something happened in the mid '90s that changed our children" 100
chthonicat from birdsite... @chthonicat.bsky.social · 13/08/2026And we are totally noticing it more in older groups. I know the plural of anecdote is not data, but there is so much discussion in online groups I'm in about how many people are being identified now in their 40s, etc. 100
Txnewsprincess @txnewsprincess.bsky.social · 13/08/2026I feel like there is probably a huge number of people whose parents were also told that their kid wasn't autistic because they didn't present that way all the time. My son's diagnosis came three years after we suspected something because people felt he was "too social" etc. 100
