Tylenol (acetaminophen) doesn’t cause autism.
Miniscule trace pesticide residues don’t cause autism.
Aluminum doesn’t cause autism.

The biggest predictor of autism?

Claiming autism is caused by “toxin exposure” lets wellness profiteers exploit vulnerable parents.
That’s what David Geier, RFK Jr’s appointee to find the “cause” of autism did, while chemically castrating & abusing children for profit.

Influencers are selling homeopathy as Tylenol “alternatives” — it’s NOT.
⚠️Homeopathy is a scam created in 1796 by a German guy with NO plausibility or evidence.
Premise:
