Conspiracy theory: do the global elites WANT mass autism?

Post Reply New Topic

Think about it-from the perspective of the global elite, a world population of autistics, especially LFA's, could be the perfect world. Why?

Autistics require extremely expensive medical therapies to function. This means loads of dollars for Big Pharma. In addition, the crypto-pharma industry benefits from additional trillions spent on biomed and various quack therapies.

Autistics typically don't work, therefore there is little need to employ them, so they do not dilute the workforce. Smaller workforce=more welfare cases=easier to control people.

Autistic brains generally function at a low level. Autistics are often consumed with special interests, or too low functioning to have much in the way of independent thought at all, so there's little chance of them leading a revolution. Even if you do get the odd stray who comes up with rebellious ideas, they have a difficult time winning others over to their cause. A single revolutionary is easy to quarantine and neutralize.

Autistics rarely reproduce. The elites want to drastically reduce ballooning human numbers by curtailing ability to reproduce, so a lot of autistics would mean fewer babies, and eventually a big population decline.

And the best part-autistics rarely complain or fight back in any meaningful way. Many are mute. Others are too scrambled mentally to organize their thoughts to revolt. Most have little ability to use weapons or martial arts due to coordination problems. So you have a big kid screaming and hitting, which is easy to control-put him in a straitjacket and stuff him in an isolation room.

Therefore, large numbers of LFA autistics would be in the best interests of the elite. In many ways, they're the perfect population-they consume much but produce little. They pad bank accounts but cost very little to maintain. The supposed goal of Autism Speaks may be mass abortions, but what if it is REALLY mass autism, and we're being lied to? Parents can always be counted on to be useful idiots, draining third mortgages looking for a cure that not only doesn't exist but which nobody WANTS to exist. Autistics are not sick enough to die, but not healthy enough to rebel. Perfect! Quality of life is low, but life itself is long, and has to be maintained with expensive drugs and other treatments.

Please tell me this was poorly done satire.

I think it's an interesting theory. Civilians who are specialized workers, passive, on meds, etc, would serve the elite much more so than free thinking, generalized, social climbers.

I suppose I ought to think that this is supposed to be funny but I dont. That DOESNT mean that Im offended, it just means that there is nothing witty or ironic about such an idea, and in fact its so absurd that its rather irritating.

No, autistics are more likely to question authority.

Autistics are more likely to be hermits than reformists.

Because autistic are more interested in their own "special interests" rather than the interests of the masses i would say that an autistic person is liable to be more self aware than an nt and more likely to have a unique viewpoint/perception. actually expressing theses views may come with a few hurdles though. what you said was no different than when people claim we are brain dead or soulless tbh

I think the problem with this theory and most conspiracy theories of this nature is that you give these "global elites" far too much credit. They, and by that I mean the class of people who are at the top of the political/corporate world, are in a position of power and they're only real concern is keeping things that way, not coming up with overly complicated impractical schemes that wouldn't change things much anyway. I mean even if "they" wanted everyone to be autistic how the hell would they go about it. First of all there is no way to make someone autistic, and secondly if there was such a procedure "they" wouldn't know how to do it, well trained scientists would and I don't think there are many scientists who would willingly make someone autistic.

interesting....
reminds me of Aldous Huxley's Brave New World I agreed with the population part because the way everyone is having kids is very costly in terms of scarce resources. Overpopulation is something most people take for granted but at least in <i> Brave New World</i> population is orderly and controlled and everyone from the Alphas to Epsilons contributes to society. The lowest functioning people(Epsilon Semi Morons) are not welfare cases but rather members of the workforce even if he is just yelling "ROOF!! !" Having autism may not be such a bad thing after all, because maybe someday we can solve the worlds problems

Geez, and I thought I was the conspiracy theorist...

I like this theory. It's half funny. And half absurd. And half true.
I don't really believe they're deliberately causing Autism, but I believe they are accidentally making it worse through the stupidity of the supposed "experts." They do everything they can to break your mind, and expect you to be greatful.

I want to believe that a revolution is possible. We just need the right leadership. I'd make a bad leader, but I think I could contribute.

I want to write a book. You wanna help? The working title is "The Angriest woman in America" or something like that. Reminiscent of a line from Malcolm X. (I love his attitude. I'm 52, white and female, so none of his specific issues really apply, but his attitude works for me.)

I say that we need someone like Malcolm to speak for the Aspie community.

The way I see it, as we are hopping along this road to enlightenment, I think that having more than one foot is a good thing. An obnoxious, angry Malcolm X-type to stir things up and get people's attention, and a Martin Luther King (and a few other voices) to pick up the pieces and smooth things over.

Can you picture a civil rights movement with only one, mealy mouthed spokesman, saying, "please master, be a nice person and let us go." Maybe if we all hold hands and think happy thoughts, the world will magically come to understand how brutal it's been, give up the status Quo and treat us as human beings.

It's like... After I read your above post, I went back to the book I've been reading. It's Tony Attwood's "Complete Guide to Asperger's Syndrome," chapter 9, page 242, about "weak central coherence." I suppose you would need to read a chunk of the book before this makes sense.

Anyway, he says that "the person can sometimes identify details and notice connections that are not perceived by others who have a different mental framework." What kind of crap is that? So how, Sherlock, do you think can I make these amazing connections if I have such a "weak central coherence"? Doesn't the central stupidity of that statement just jump out and smack you in the face? And if not, why not? Could it be that maybe I'm onto something, that I DO know what's going on, and that I'm just not good at explaining it TO SOMEONE LIKE YOU? Could it be that, if these so-called "scientists" would shut up and really listen for once, they might actually learn something?

I think that's the trouble. Genius is easy. Explaining it is hard. Something that comes to me in a flash would take an hour to explain, and no one has an hour to listen. If I can't put it in a sound bite, I'm not allowed to say it at all. But when I try to make it quick and simple, I sound like a lunatic and confirm what they wanted to believe anyway.

It's time someone told these half-wits the truth, in a tone that says we're seriously pissed off, but with clarity. It's complicated, so it would take a book.

(Did you follow any of that?)

This is the single most f*****g idiotic thing I have read all day. In fact, I am submitting it to Fundies Say The Darndest Things' section for conspiracy theorists.
