Unprecedentedly good fiscal & monetary policy. Again, I hope everyone likes Lost Decades, because the lesson the Democrats have now learned, for at least a generation, is that you should never again try & avoid them, because you will be destroyed in the media & the court of public opinion.

👋 😐 Autistic social scientist here, sharing my writeup that gets into the weeds a bit on some of the rhetoric that puts #autistic lives at risk. It's long, lots of subheadings. Scroll THOSE to get to topics of interest.

Be safe, friends. You're not alone in this mess.

#NewArticle Here I consider how “autism epidemic” scare is being used to push certain agendas and launch a national autism registry. As an #Autistic social scientist, I reflect on a rhetorical pattern that I observe and how it exposes this manipulation. #AutRes
