RFK Jr.’s plan to build a national autism registry isn’t about health — it’s about control. It’s about surveillance. And it’s about laying the groundwork for the kind of dystopian authoritarianism we swore we’d never allow again.
This grotesque overreach is not just a blatant violation of HIPAA and medical privacy — it’s a glaring red flag in a regime already flirting with fascism. Aggregating private health data to track and classify individuals with autism is not science. It is eugenics. Full stop.
We’ve seen where this path leads. First, it’s autism. Then, it’s any disorder, condition, or perceived difference that doesn’t serve the “ideal citizen.” RFK Jr. has made no secret of his admiration for authoritarian crackdowns. He’s already dismantling HIPAA oversight and gutting the very cybersecurity units that protect Americans’ medical data. Now, he’s weaponizing health surveillance as a tool of oppression.
This isn’t public health policy — it’s political persecution under a medical disguise.
People with autism are not a problem to be solved or tracked. They are citizens — human beings — who deserve autonomy and dignity. They do not to be herded into databases and subsequent experimentation camps for a regime that’s made its agenda clear: vilify, isolate, and erase anyone who doesn’t conform to their narrow, dangerous vision of white evangelical America.
RFK Jr. is well outside his jurisdiction. This must be stopped — immediately. Congress has a moral obligation to shut this down before it becomes another permanent scar on this country’s conscience.
We are watching. We are furious. And we are not going to sit quietly while you let this happen. Speak up, speak out, condemn this proposal and these actions. Protect your constituents and stand up for the American people.
