... or ADHD, or food allergies, or anxiety disorders, or homosexuality, or any of other crap our children are plagued with.

After seven months on pregnancy forums, I’ve determined this is a big fat lie.

Women today are taking all kinds of shit during pregnancy. Heartburn meds, extra vaccinations, popping Tylenol like it’s candy, high dose progesterone supplements. Oh, and that doesn’t include all the drugs that are taken these days to just get pregnant, like the massive amounts of hormones you use during IVF or IUI treatments, or Clomid to increase ovulation. Drinking during pregnancy is becoming more acceptable (because one bitch wrote a book), and apparently smoking weed your entire pregnancy is no big deal either. Most psychiatric drugs are cleared for use during pregnancy as well.

This is on top of all the birth control, drinking, bad eating habits, obesity, and anxiety meds women are on for most of their lives.

But no, nothing in the modern world causes autism. You constantly freaking out about your mother in law’s innocent bullshit, or your high stress job, or your advanced maternal age, won’t affect your baby at all. Nothing causes problems!

Very true.

It’s just sad. Like, maybe just dealing with your pregnancy headaches and using baking soda instead of Prilosec could have saved your baby from a lifetime of agony

Maybe people incapable of independent thought should be culled anyways? The cabal clearly wants to reduce the population and as long as we keep our reproductive numbers up and let the herd get culled of those types, we will be able to form a stronger society of our own down the line.

Not a good solution. Functional society needs a mix of leaders and followers. We naturally produce this mix through our reproductive process. Too many alphas and not enough betas results in no work getting done. Too many betas and not enough alphas results in no work getting done and insufficient leadership to accomplish anything. Have to have a mix.

The trouble is that subversive forces are in play. These forces affect both alphas and betas. No one is truly immune to them. We have to focus on identifying and resisting subversion. A good start to that is simply living according to God's will and rejecting those things that act against it.

Our version of Society tends to try to shoehorn Followers into being Leaders, and tries very hard to suppress Leaders and turn them into Followers. So we wind up with Clown World leadership like The Squad.

Most who resist the creep of bullshit are followers as well, just a smarter breed. Both Communists and fascists denounced a large portion of these people, although Marx had a concise word for them: lumpenproletariat. These are the people who have no interest in pushing for the advancement of anything, they have very little use and resist any change from their status quo.

There are plenty of followers who are useful to the cause. This board like any other has far more lurkers voting than commenters. Lurkers are your useful followers.

People who refuse to listen to friends and family and resist the brain washing are forgettable lumpenproletariat.

How do you cure headaches with baking soda?

Based on the context I think she was referring to heartburn.

You don;t cure headaches with Prilosec either, that's for heartburn.

Tylenol usage during pregnancy has been linked to autism.

I seriously doubt that there are no side effects from all the heartburn meds. That shit crosses the placenta.
