Science not Politics- Defending my Intelligence

Autism Beyond Rumor: A Science-Based Response from an Autistic Researcher

Claim 1 — RFK’s expertise

• Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is a lawyer by training (BA, JD, LLM). He has no medical degree, no formal scientific training in epidemiology, neurology, or autism research. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}

Claim 2 — Vaccines and autism

• Large reviews by the CDC and WHO conclude there is no credible evidence linking vaccines (including MMR and thimerosal-containing vaccines) to autism. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}

Claim 3 — “Tylenol = autism” rumor

• Recent reporting describes plans to promote a Tylenol–autism link but presents no supporting evidence; similar claims have been rejected in court previously. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}

What autism actually is (science + lived reality)

• Monotropism: Autistic cognition often features deep, interest-focused attention that can drive creativity and expertise. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}

• Interoception/sensory differences: Autistic people frequently show distinctive patterns of body-signal awareness and sensory processing that shape emotion, regulation, and learning. :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}

Ontology of substance (why the deficit story fails)

• Physics shows “empty space” isn’t empty: fields carry energy; radiowaves propagate through the EM field; quantum systems can be entangled across distance. These are measurable, physical structures—not “nothing.” (See standard QM/QFT and field-theory texts.)

• In this ontology, autism is not a defect to be blamed on medicines. It is a valid mode of human cognition—a neurocognitive equilibrium characterized by rhythmic regulation, sensory depth, and powerful pattern recognition (monotropism + interoception), which many autistic people report and the literature supports. :contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}

Summary

• RFK offers zero medical/scientific credentials and zero evidence to overturn established findings on vaccines and autism. :contentReference[oaicite:6]{index=6}

• The science on autism points to cognitive style and sensory processing differences—not to vaccines or Tylenol. :contentReference[oaicite:7]{index=7}

Conclusion

Autism is not a tragedy to pin on products. It is a legitimate, evidence-grounded way of being—an expression of structured, living intelligence.
