IDK what I have, as far as the full spectrum of neurodiversity does, and I’m definitely suffering in some way as a result, but I’d expand this to far more than autism, I think if they have any success sending people to death camps for autism, they’ll probably start picking up everyone else without even making an announcement. In fact, it would not surprise me if suddenly they start picking up random US citizens and just declare them autistic.

I have my doubts about this because they are already doing this through ICE and they have said they are going to do it for people who disagree with the President regardless of their citizenship status.
RFK’s HHS is not going to out-compete ICE to create a general gestapo model, it already exists, has for a long time, in multiple different modes. It’s just that it was much more polite before.
I’m much more scared about keeping my passport up to date, and being denaturalized than I am about RFK’s goofy autism caregiver based genocidal ideas.
RFK already said he wants to create work camps for autistic people, so it’ll probably be a way to get cheap labour from the white population as they deport the non-white population.
Yeah he has. I am 50:50 on if he actually believes that or it’s shoe horning stuff into Trump’s policy agenda. I think he literally believes that we cannot work so how would labor camps even work? His whole “wellness farms” stuff was funny because bringing back RFK Jr. designed sanitoriums during a fascist austerity government after Regan happened is a nonstarter. I do not believe that RFK is going to be able to put together a network of camps and the mechanisms to round people up into them. ICE under Trump is less effective than under Biden/Obama but is more brazen. There’s like several steps that here that aren’t going to be easy, and it’s a game of numbers not just if you’ll get got by the RFK HHS but also if the RFK HHS will be able to get you at all.
I think RFK’s average case success scenario for this is having some high profile arrests and claiming mission accomplished.
Remember that these systems were actually made effective or outright built by competent technocratic ghouls during the Democrat run government years. Bush’s war in the middle east was a failure, Obama mechanized it and turned it into a success (politically speaking because he removed American troops from the political equation). Biden adopted Trump’s border policy and made it work effectively and proved it out in the stats and Democrats were complaining that the evil fascists of the GOP weren’t giving them credit for being good effective fascists.
What about the HHS classifications/work providing a basis for categorization for Federal LE action, ‘rounding up’? Then they wouldn’t be competing, like that, but they both end up contributing. I’ve tried talking to people about this recently and was told off basically. “Don’t believe what you hear.” I think they said. (Started with talking about the statements about ADHD work camps.)
Also, idk if this comes off as risky to discuss publicly given everything, but do you mean having your passport for leaving later or that you already have and keeping it current is important (because obviously). And where are you considering for places to go other than the U.S.?

My personal risk profile doesn’t match this because there is no diagnosis. I think it can represent a real risk for others.
My opinion on this is that I think this is an RFK pet project that he’s shoe horning into DJT’s world view. I don’t think RFK is long for being HHS secretary, because Trump doesn’t like him and they are both guys who cannot share the spotlight.
There is real risk to real people from the Trump admin, but I think we have to temper the assessment of that risk with the political instability and the incompetence of a cartoonish fascist government. They are more effective with ICE and dissident management this time around because they had 4 years to plan, and they had several successful trial balloons between 2016-2020. I think creating pathological or technical criteria for the rounding up is something that is needed for a technocratic fascist positioning very much a Dem party thing (Think: You can’t support Hamas they’re terroristorinos!). Trump has been signaling that he’s literally trying to fuck over those who simply disagree publicly. You do not need pathological criteria to rile up your base for that. Democrat, dissident, and anti-American are labels that can do that job just as effectively.
It’s also not actually about the practical population transfer but imposing control. If they really wanted to get rid of autistic people esp. kids on the cheap they could do it through federal austerity faster/easier than putting us all in camps.
I can be wrong, but I just don’t think RFK’s agenda is going to be durable and mesh with the overall WH goals and this they have 6 of these types of pots on the stove so I’m not betting on RFK being a danger to me.

No I’m not leaving. I was naturalized as a child and the immigration law at the time did not provide children with their own naturalization documents. My proof of citizenship is my old collection of US passports, current passport / passport card. I can pay $5k for the INS to print me a certificate, but lol cmon.
This is my de jure defense of “I’m not fucking going to El Salvador”, my de facto one is I keep that thing on me. My conditions for leaving the country are if it’s not going to be possible for me and my partner to live here from an economic / personal safety POV. We aren’t planning on children so I have it easier than most, and from the outside I can pass as “normal” from a ND/political POV. A lot of this stuff is very much “don’t rock the boat” signal.
I have been at peace with the fact that I could be deported under US law since I was a teenager, so this isn’t really anything new to me. This is just surviving. I’m doing my dailies.
