Elmo has aspergers, a form of autism. RFK says people with autism can’t use the bathroom by themselves.
Honestly, this is nonsense. Instead of making memes we really should be breaking out the guillotines. Seriously.
All these jokes about guillotines is getting old. Either shit or get off the pot.
We all have to shit at the same time, that’s the trick.
If enough people join in at the same time, the threat/risk of repercussions/punishment drops to zero, or very close to zero. The difficult part is organizing enough people.
The difficult part is organizing enough people.
Governments work hard in preventing people from organizing. Mass media and centralized socials are directly sponsored by the government.
If you organize that many people you can get what you want without resorting to a form of violence that will really only create a power vacuum, not a better future.
Violence is just cheap and easy, as long as you don’t have to think about the consequences of your actions.
Problem is you’ve left organizing and resisting so long you’ve already so far behind that the only catch up now is violence. Also the vast majority of people who have had to resort to violence as a last resort think about the consequences of their actions daily. It is well documented. I don’t know the stats on fascist dictators but I have afeeling heir druphkin and his ilk never seem to have those problems.
The problem is it’s not the last resort, far from it. We still have some semblance of democracy, no matter how often people are screaming that it’s all lost already (like yourself). We still have options, just because so many people choose not to consider them doesn’t mean they don’t exist, it just means it takes more effort than lighting a bottle of alcohol with a rag in it on fire and tossing it at the people you blame for all your inconveniences.
Yes, we have a problem at the federal level, and yes it’s going to be hard to fix it. But it’s not the only thing that matters, and treating it like it is is how we’ve lost so much ground already. People gave up long ago because everyone keeps telling them their thoughts don’t matter, that everything is already broken and there’s no way to fix it. Not because it’s true, because it’s the easiest way to get people to stop resisting effectively.
You want people to do something meaningful? Stop backing them into a corner by telling them they have no options left. Cause as we’ve seen already it just means they give up.
As someone looking from the outside in please tell me about this democracy you have left. Truely. I’d like to know because I don’t see it anywhere. I specifically don’t see it in the constant threats of annexation of my country and fuck all being done about that from your end. Too busy with your democracy I suppose to stand up for one of your largest trading partners and closest ally. Probably see us as the burden your lord and leader tried to peg us as. Your democracy is working really fucking well. I’ll never again trust an american. Ever. You ensured that. Should one try to cross our border with bad intent they WILL be met with violence that you could never imagine.
You see us Canadians, once you work this hard to fuck us and push us into a corner, we ain’t all sorry and shit anymore. We come out with teeth bared and ice in our veins. Maybe you could learn something from our war history to help your “democracy”.
Okay. Name an authoritarian ruler who was deposed with absolutely no violence.
And then we all flush at the same time too and the entire school gets launched into the air.
Push them hard every time. I didn’t even consider this. Thank you for updating me. I will be borrowing this theme going forward.
We’ve been told we need an adult to go to the bathroom now though.
No u
not a joke. be ready.
Are you?
eager
Well how the fuck do we get this ball rolling? I’m ready and it feels like a load of others are ready to fix this too.
okay, hear me out… “Gillo-memes”
A song just for you: https://youtube.com/watch?v=TMHCw3RqulY
Let’s get some powerful people Luigi’d to restablish some democracy
I’m not sure vaccines are a class issue, it seems to cross the spectrum.
Maybe chill just a bit…
How many people have to go to the camps before you can unchill?
This is the problem with your country right here.
That we think in absolutes, and either are hyper violent or apathetic, both of which lead to no real resolution? Yeah, definitely a real problem.
I’m no expert here but I believe it is called: Populism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Populism
The core part of Populism is a leader who goes around that the established systems are broken and how only they can fix it. It is massively destabilizing on both sides.
Rant:
Is is a seriously bad sign when people want to go on killing spree. It feels like these days you are ether expected to support Trump and all of his madness and human rights violations or be ready to support mass reforms and even violence. Can I not support Trump while not wanting to start executing people? Last time I checked the courts were a very powerful enemy of Trump. They have repeatedly stepped in his way of his power. The courts take a long time to do anything but they are absolute when they decide on something. If you overthrow the systems of power you end up with a dictator and even totalitarianism. I do not support mass deportations especially when they are completely violating peoples rights. However, that doesn’t mean I have to support a violent uprising. Last time I checked that didn’t work well for the capital rioters.
You should look around. You have installed a dictator. One that you ensured had unlimited power through your court system. Then he ensured the courts had zero power by openly defying them repeatedly. One that no one in your country with the power to do so, seems to be willing to defy or confront.
Honestly I wish it was just the US. However, I have a feeling these things will start happening on a global scale as misinformation spreads.
And that’s why you have to fight…Now.
Sorry fam
It’s at the point where the president wants to deport citizens for not being white enough, it’s about to to stop chilling.

First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

It’s way beyond being chill
Elon was never diagnosed with autism, afaik. He just tells everyone he has it
because he can’t use the bathroom unassisted.
his peepee is mangled from a botched surgery, so he probably sits down.
I sit down, because I’m the one who has to clean it.
I clean it anyway, so the efficiency from standing is a free gain to me.
I think you mean you sit down so you don’t have to clean it? (Or not as often)
You don’t have people for that?

As much as I hate to say this in response to your comment, self diagnosis is valid.
Mostly the context is for people without resources, however, so your point is fair. Taking away validity for marginalized groups’ experiences is at risk with that stance though.
Thanks if you read this and I hope you have a great day otherwise. /gen
Self diagnosis is not valid. Stop pretending it is
Self diagnosis for adhd and asd is a pretty strong predictor for an actual diagnosis. Also self help is a huge part of therapy/management anyway, so why not do some self help and acceptance? theres no 'cure ’ to either. making it your personality and an excuse for being an asshole is a symptom of assholism. That, however, is really hard to self diagnose due to the nature of being an unreflected selfish manbaby egomaniac.
I am fairly confident (as are my therapists) that I am somewhere on some sort of spectrum. However, when I looked at the process of getting a formal diagnosis, it was several thousand dollars which would not be covered by insurance and would be a full year at least on a waiting list. (I believe they also want to talk to your family…)
The average age of diagnosis for AFAB folks is around 30. Clinicians are not trained in recognizing the way that ASD presents in girls, and are to this day often taught that it doesn’t really present in girls at all (a current gig is tutoring intro psych - this was in a students textbook!)
Self-diagnosis is problematic, but you also must acknowledge that accessing resources to even get evaluated are often completely out of reach.
They are for most people, but he’s literally the richest man in the world.
It is dangerous in some countries to get an official diagnosis for a disability. I respect that some people know they have a problem, but fear a label
Some people also wear a label as a badge of honor, or as an excuse for their malign actions. Elon has little to lose with his claims, and so much to excuse.
Well.sure, but this is all so far beside the point…
is it? do we really think autistic people or others with disabilities won’t be targeted by the current administration in the US? they’re following the Nazis playbook pretty accurately so far and that was kind of a major point for them. I mean the term Asperger’s was coined by a Nazi scientist after performing experiments on the disabled people they rounded up and out in camps.
Because the psychiatrist is able to read the text book better than you?
They’re not magic. It’s check boxes.
From someone with two major surgeries behind me, one of them involving a tumour inside my head, this sounds outright idiotic.
I’d be dead unless I realized something was wrong other than what the doctors at the time described as “just a few headaches”. Took me upwards of 10+ different doctors before they finally listened and found it. Exactly where I described the pain and pressure coming from.
Listen to your body, and for fucks sake stop giving bad advice to people.
That’s not really self-diagnosis is it? Self-diagnosis would be you already claiming there was a tumour before doctors found something.
Knowing something off is not diagnosing yourself.
“Asperger’s” is not a thing anymore. It’s all Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) now. And Hans Asperger was “a bit of a Nazi.”
It’s still easier to tell people that you have Asperger’s than trying to explain why their autist nephew and yourself are different but still on the spectrum.
I mean… Educating people is important and all that jazz but I’m just tired of it.
“It’s level 1 autism, what used to be called Asperger’s,” is normally enough for people to understand what I’m talking about. Of course, I’m not saying these things to every person passing by, but when a conversation goes there I try to be educational.
It’s almost as if an extremely ambiguous meaningless label is useless and contributes to nothing but confusion, isolation, and ruined lives due to unneeded “help”.
Tired of being better, congratulations!
So is Elmo
Maybe that’s why musk also thinks he should be a Nazi, he’s just trying to live up to the name.
Really shouldn’t use that anymore
How do you get so fucking absorbed into the causes of autism and yet have never even met autistic people? Even kids who are level 3 can usually learn to potty train so long as they don’t have physical impairments or learning disabilities that prevent it. It’s hard as hell, I’m sure, when they are completely non-verbal/non-communicative, have sensory issues, and struggle with routine change, and maybe not every level 3 kid gets there. But that’s certainly not the case for the majority of autistic people.
he just self-diagnosed to excuse his POS behaviour, he probably doesnt have, it but a genuine narcisstic psychopath much like trump.
I can’t use the bathroom unassisted either. Big shout out to gravity for being the force that allows poop to come out of my butt, and not float around the house until you open a window, and it just happens to float outside.
But then outside there would be just a mess of poop and other debris just floating around the city all willynilly.
Boy I sure do love the combination of indoor plumbing and gravity. It’s been at least 40 years since I held a human turd. If I ever did. I don’t know. I would have been a toddler, and don’t remember.
Well that, uh
That certainly was a comment
Whew, yes sir
Definitely a collection of words there, yup
yeah, i don’t believe them.
everybody remembers the last time they held a turd.
congratulations - you just left me fucking speechless.
i love ignorance sometimes. it can me kinda cute when it’s not so fucking harmful.
but dude did -
imma leave the rest oup to yall.
I did hold one and painted the walls with it, all happy and giggling - per account by my mother
There’s an episode of How I Met Your Mother where Marshal tells stories that happened to him. Then the rest of the gang try to guess if he was a kid or if he was an adult but drunk in that story.
Your story would be great for that game. Maybe you were a toddler. Maybe this was how you ruined Thanksgiving 2024.
The breakfast incident in Trainspotting could also fit in the game.
I wouldn’t expect a person peddling snake oil to understand or care that autism is a spectrum
Rfk just hates autists since the only one he thinks hes met is musk.
Please don’t call him Elmo as that’s insulting to Elmo
Thank you.
“El-mo”? More like “El-NO”! Amiright, guys?
That sounds Mexican
Let’s deport him
You magnificent bastard… 🤘
I’m obviously OOTL here- I’ve known people with Asperger’s and they used the bathroom by themselves just fine. What’s going on? I don’t live in US
RFK Jr has a long history of being wrong about everything. He doesn’t want to break character now.
Oh I see. So he said Aspergers can’t use the toilet unassisted, not that Elon needs assistance
Elmo has claimed to be autistic at multiple points. Most recently to my knowledge, to try and excuse his nazi salute.
So when RFK was
droolingdroning on about how terrible autism is, and how autistic people can’t use the restroom unassisted, by extension he was saying Musk can’t have a solo bathroom experience.
Person with autism here: the truth is even if some people on the spectrum can’t use the bathroom by themselves, it’s either a comorbidity linked to a different disability or it’s obscenely rare.
The way autism expresses in different people is very complex and this is this is one of the worst mischaracterizations I’ve ever seen.
That guy shouldn’t be able to touch the US health department or any other health organization for that matter with a ten foot pole. He is explicitly and intentionally spreading lies on a variety of different topics and should have no authority.
Yeah at first that’s what I thought the headline was referring to
could be the amount of cocaine he has taken that makes him incontinent.
Okay, I didn’t know he had Aspergers, but that doesn’t excuse his racism.
I have relatives with aspergers and none of them are facist assholes
That would explain why Musk is full of shit.
He ALSO said he Doesn’t pay TAXES so CHECKMATE!
