Besides the differences in life expectancy, the analysis also revealed ADHD to be linked with a higher risk of mental health issues — such as anxiety, depression, self-harm, suicide and personality disorders. edition.cnn.com/2025/01/23/h... But why ? Due to how they are treated by society?

Your kids are sick all the time because public health leaders chose to let it happen. There are details, and there are more in-depth explanations, but in the end that's what it boils down to. They listened to their egos instead of experts, and made bad choices. canadahealthwatch.ca/2025/01/11/w...

They won't be happy until we're all dead. During the first years of covid, the Scottish government had terps at every press conference, while Deaf people had to beg for them from the UK government, and it rarely worked. People with hearing impairments were four times more likely to die.

@mirandadevine.

I actually think that's the point of them. It's to reinforce our powerlessness.

I'm sorry, but we have to stop with the ridiculous sign language interpreters, who turn serious press conferences into a farce. There are closed captions on all broadcast channels and streaming services. No wild human gesticulators necessary. x.com/EndWokeness/st...
