Train Wrecks of Neurodiversity

It is interesting that any organization would bother responding to the crazed rantings of neurodiverse wackos who try to harm autistic children. In the age of the internet where any wacko with a computer can publish lunacy, I suppose the wackos are more difficult to ignore than they were in the past when no decent newspaper would publish their drivel. What would have happened before the internet if some nut like Seidel had written to the MIND institute to complain about something they said? The answer is nothing. They would have had no need to respond to this sadist. They could just throw her letter in the trash and put her name on a list of undesirables with the security guards in case she tried to bother them in person.
Now we have the nut proudly displaying her letter from the supposedly offensive person and other nuts telling her what a good job she has done of being a pain in the ass. This nut thinks it is demeaning to autistic people to refer to them as train wrecks. So, she bothers people about the language and someone decides that the politically correct response should be a retraction and an apology for using an allegedly unkind description of autism. If I were running the organization, I may have done the same thing. I'd suggest sending a nice letter to shut the dumb broad up. Then, I'd keep using whatever term I felt like using.
Autism is a nightmare for everyone involved with it. It turns your whole life upside down. It is gut wrenching to think of your normal child trapped in the endless abyss that is autism. Wackos like Seidel think it is something to be celebrated. This wack job has a kid on the autistic spectrum and she advocates celebrating the news. I think she should be locked up for abusing her kid by not trying to help her. I can imagine what I would have thought of my parents if I broke my leg and they told me I should celebrate my differences rather than fixing the fracture. These nut job parents are going to get some horrible treatment from their kids when they get sent to the old folks home. It won't be long before everyone knows the truth about thimerosal and the AMA will have no choice but to help cure the damage they caused. Social Services will force wackos like Seidel to help her kid then. What will these kids think of their parents who took sides with the negligent criminals who poisoned them after they are cured? Will the kids forgive their parents stupidity or will they let them rot in the worst old folks home they can find?

1. False
2. True
3. Was a train wreck. Now recovering and I let him know that we are getting the mercury out of his brain so he will someday be able to talk to us and tell people like Seidel what a fucking idiot she is.
4. True but it will take more than a couple of weeks.

Mr. Best,
At what point will you be targeting my son the same way you are Ms. Siedel?

He won't be embarrased at all. I'll teach him to call a spade a spade like I do. He'll learn that parents who refuse to help their kids overcome mercury poisoning are a bunch of nitwits. He'll learn to be completely intolerant of these nitwits who harm children with their nonsense.
Telling me that other "mercury parents" are embarrased by me is a good psychological ploy to try to get me to shut up. Unfortunately for you and Seidel, I don't fall for psychological ploys. Neurodiversity is nothing but a bunch of ignorant jerks who support the drug companies and rant against scientists who are trying to help us cure our kids. I'll continue to write in opposition to this insanity while I have the time to do so. I suspect, in this day and age, other younger parents who have been brought up in an age of being politically correct may not think it proper to to speak as forthrightly as I do. I don't care. I'm from a different generation that won't take crap from wack jobs. I don't think you'll find any of those parents who were opposed to my handing Seidel her head in the Concord Monitor.

PEI Roadrunners Ewen Stewart Inspirational Award

Here's the text:

(presented by Walter Lee, last year's winner)

I was very pleased when I was asked to announce the winner of this year's Ewen Stewart Inspiration Award. This award doesn't celebrate the fastest times or the most improved runner; rather, it celebrates and honours a club member who presents spirit, determination, guts, grit, and who inspires us all to be the best we can be.

To quote Alex Bain -- the winner of this year's Ewen Stewart Inspirational Award:
"Autism the boy is Alex Bain
Autism is happy and sad
I like Autism
Autism makes me different from my friends
That's OK"


Alex graduated from Bluefield High School in 2005 and won prizes for the highest marks in two of his courses and as well as an application prize.

As a runner, Alex was on the school Cross Country and Track and Field Team for three years. In 2004, he won the Award of Distinction for boys' cross country and another for top junior. Alex has also competed in a number of PEI Roadrunner races. In 2004, he placed 27th out of a field of over 400 runners in the half marathon and was named Rookie of the Year at the 2005 annual meeting.

Almost every weekend, for most of the year, Alex puts on his signature yellow t-shirt, heads to a road race on the Island, and runs for autism.

As his shirt says, he runs for autism, not against autism. Not to raise money to find a way to cure himself or his brother or his mom or prevent people like himself from ever being born, but just to raise awareness and acceptance. He's doing it.

Alex was also successful in raising over $550. in the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation Run for the Cure. He crossed the finish line 9th out of the hundreds of runners in Charlottetown.

By facing, accommodating, tackling, and conquering many challenges and obstacles, Alex has inspired many and has proven himself to be a most worthy recipient of the Ewen Stewart Inspirational Runner Award.

Alex -- would you please come forward to accept your award.

It's interesting that he wants to help cure cancer but not autism. That's probably because he has an offbeat mother who thinks autism shouldn't be cured. Learning to live with it and doing the best he can is admirable. It's good for him that he says he is happy and has a positive attitude about it. It would be better for him if his mother would get her head out of her ass and let him learn that autism is curable so he would not have to go through life with a disability.

jypsy said...

Why is that so interesting?

That's probably because he has an offbeat mother who thinks autism shouldn't be cured.

It's interesting that you blame me for his attitude and yet you don't blame my parents for mine or Michelle's parents for hers. Why are you treating him differently?

Learning to live with it and doing the best he can is admirable. It's good for him that he says he is happy and has a positive attitude about it.

He also says autism can be sad. But, he still likes it, it's still ok with him that he's different, and he still wants "acceptance not cure".

It would be better for him if his mother would get her head out of her ass and let him learn that autism is curable so he would not have to go through life with a disability.

Just what exactly qualifies me as having my head up my ass?

Are you saying I censor Alex, his reading or access to information in any way?

John Best said...

Jypsy;
Nobody could blame your parents since no cure was available until a few years ago. Now that we know what causes autism, celebrating one's neurodiversity is just plain stupid.
What does your son have to do with Kathleen being a pain in the ass and bothering people who are trying to help autistic children?

I see no answer to "Are you saying I censor Alex, his reading or access to information in any way?" -- could you please point it out to me?

As to your question " Don't forget to explain why your son has anything to do with Kathleen being a pain in the ass."

You said about Kathleen, when asked, that it is true that you believe
"Kathleen Siedel should not be allowed to speak out. The "dumb broad" should be shut up." You've said the same about Michelle Dawson. I don't understand the difference between their advocacy & Alex's.

Almost every weekend, for most of the year, Alex puts on his signature yellow t-shirt, heads to a road race on the Island, and runs for autism.

As his shirt says, he runs for autism, not against autism. Not to raise money to find a way to cure himself or his brother or his mom or prevent people like himself from ever being born, but just to raise awareness and acceptance.


And maybe more telling of what effect Alex's actions are having is the next line:

He's doing it.

We all advocate in our own way. I see very little difference between my son's advocacy work and Ms. Siedel's.

You don't seem to see it that way at all though. I'm really curious as to why.

I'm curious about my other unanswered questions too. Maybe I'll take Joseph's cue and start numbering my questions....

John Best said...

Jypsy;
Ist question: Yes
2nd " " : I didn't say that. You inferred it. As a parent, you should be advising him about the fact that mercury is the most likely cause of his autism. You're not doing your job.
3rd " " : Big difference between raising awareness and spouting false information about the cause of autism and those who help kids. Your mention of preventing autistic kids from being born is further demonstrating your stupidity since no gene for autism has been found. That is just another absurd argument by neurodiverse idiots who want to exagerate the truth of the matter.
Your son's raising awareness is not advising parents to refuse to help their kids by lying to them about the treatments that help.

That would be Alex's mention, not mine (in this instance). Quit blaming me for his words, attitude & opinions.

1) So I take it my son is now officially a "neurodiverse idiot who wants to exagerate the truth of the matter."?

My son is "advising" people to "accept not cure" autism. If I did that you'de call it "lying to them about the treatments that help." I fail to see the difference.
2) if there is a difference, please explain it.

Kevin;
Kathleen is a low life who lies about mercury and chelation and effectively harms children. You think she has class because she is a verbose pseudo intellectual who writes better than you. A dope like you probably thinks she is a true intellectual because you agree with the nonsense she writes.
Maybe you'll reach the level of those trained monkeys someday Kevin, and we can teach you to do the right thing for your daughter. You won't reach that level until you stop listening to dopes like Seidel. I'll just keep pointing out how ridiculous Seidel's position is in case some other morons who are a little smarter than you want to learn that they can cure their poisoned kids. Keep up the name calling, Kev. You're proving my point.

It is only your opinion that " Your son has mercury in his brain"

It's not that he "doesn't even know it", it's that he, like many people, doesn't agree with your opinion. his position is based on his opinion, as is yours.
Definitions of position:
- a rationalized mental attitude
- side: an opinion that is held in opposition to another in an argument or dispute

You have just "invalidated" the opinions and positions of everyone diagnosed autistic, including your own son based on your own opinion.

How will you know when you have every speck of mercury out of your son's brain and he'll be competent enough to hold a valid opinion and position. Will you test him for mercury then?

In this case, you are highlighting your sons words by pointing them out every 5 seconds. It is of course your attitude and opinions.

John Best said...

Jypsy;
Your son is operating under the obsolete notion that there is no known cause or cure for autism. Since we did not have proof that mercury was the cause of the autism epidemic until 2003, you are not to blame for fostering this attitude until then. If you were a decent parent, you would address this issue now instead of hanging on to false beliefs that are still perpetrated on us by those who will not admit their error. Your opinion has been invalidated but you aren't sharp enough to understand that.

John Best said...

Kevin;
Read this post again so you can understand why the dumb broad received an apology. Then ask yourself about the intelligence of someone who takes that personal correspondence and waves it around like a victory banner. I guess she's proud to say that she got a letter that, to me, said "Shut up and don't bother me, dumb broad".
Mr Rollens was accurate in his use of the term "Train Wreck". The injuries suffered by those in a train wreck do not reflect poorly on the passengers. They do reflect poorly on the unsafe conditions that caused the wreck. In this case, that unsafe condition is the fact that Eli Lilly never tested thimerosal properly.
You don't have the brains to debate any parent who is curing their child of mercury poisoning, Kevin. If you did, you'd be helping your daughter instead of taking sides with wackos who agree with the people who poisoned our kids.

John Best said...

Kevin;
You are employing the same inane strategy of trying to twist my words as if what I say has anything to do with what Mr Rollens thinks. That's typical for you as you are grasping at every straw you can find to knock those who help poisoned kids.
The "Train Wreck" comment did not offend a LOT of people. I don't think it offended anyone. The dumb broad just wanted to use it in her deranged quest to discredit those who help poisoned kids. It has nothing to do with respect, bonehead. It has only to do with the stupidity of Neurodiversity and a few wackos who are being a pain in the ass to decent parents who are helping their kids.
Once more John, he didn't refer to those in a train wreck, he referred to autistic people as being train wrecks.
You're nitpicking here, Kev. Once again, this manner of arguing is showing off your low IQ.
You have not proven there was any autism prior to 1931 and you have also not shown there was more than a few rare cases of autism in China. You may have shown that I should have used the term "virtually no autism" when talking about China but it's just more stupid nitpicking from one who is fighting a losing battle to justify letting his daughter rot in the abyss of autism.
Another stupid attempt to twist my words regarding your daughter doesn't help your position. Your deranged idea that you are standing up to me isn't helping your daughter recover from mercury poisoning.

Mr. Best,

I don't mean anything, that was a quote from a HealthNewsDigest.com story:

Largest Biomedical Assessment of Children with Autism Launched
HealthNewsDigest.com - March 13, 2006
(HealthNewsDigest.com).. SACRAMENTO, Calif. -- Multidisciplinary
teams of physicians and scientists at the University of California,
Davis, M.I.N.D. Institute have launched the nations most
comprehensive assessment of children with autism to detect the
biological and behavioral patterns that define subtypes of the
disorder.

Called the Autism Phenome Project, the large-scale, longitudinal
study will enroll 1,800 children -- 900 with autism, 450 with
developmental delay and 450 who are typically developing -- who will
undergo a thorough medical evaluation in addition to systematic
analyses of their immune systems, brain structures and functions,
genetics, environmental exposures and blood proteins. Children will
be 2 to 4 years old when they begin participating in the study, and
their development will continue to be evaluated over the course of
several years. The first phase of the research is funded by the UC
Davis M.I.N.D. Institute and philanthropic donations.

Children with autism clearly are not all the same, said David G.
Amaral, research director of the UC Davis M.I.N.D. Institute and co-
director of the project. The tremendous variation leads us to
believe that autism is a group of disorders rather than a single
disorder -- several autisms versus one autism.
We are determined to
provide the specific biomedical and behavioral criteria that
accurately define distinct subtypes.

Same question - do you agree or disagree with their premise?

1) So then are you not now holding my parents (and Ms. Dawson's etc) to this standard of not being decent parents?

You said
"Nobody could blame your parents since no cure was available until a few years ago. Now that we know what causes autism, celebrating one's neurodiversity is just plain stupid."

But it seems if you are blaming me as Alex's parent you must also blame my parents for being equally "stupid" (your words, not mine).
2) Do you blame my parents now?
3) Why or why not?

Today he would be diagnosed as autistic as a child and considered recovered by DAN! He was autistic. Sorry

Sorry you could't read that 1 page news release. I think the understanding would have become clearer for you.

“Our goal is to identify specific types of autism and develop a database of biomedical information that can be shared with the worldwide community of autism scientists. This is crucial to refining our understanding of autism and to developing targeted treatments for a specific 'type' of autism as early as possible so children can reach their fullest potential.”

It's obvious they are talking about identifying "several types of autism".

Actually, mercury poisoning affects motor function before intelligence, but it's irrelevant since autism isn't mercury poisoning.

Einstein's brain didn't work right, by your definition. It worked better.

He had a higher glial cell to neuron ratio than most, something that would make him both mercury poisoned and autistic according to folks like Burbacher and the mercury parents. Physical similarities found in today's autistics yet he was born before thimerosal.

What say you Genius?

How genuine of you, Kev. You think it's a good idea to remove it from vaccines but not from your daughter's brain. Do you see the fallacy in your logic?
And, Wack job, I'm just one guy who, in the grand scheme of things, doesn't matter worth a damn but your preserving the idiocy of Neurodiversity and all the idiotic comments from the Neurodiverse tribe is a good thing so people can see the stupidity we have had to deal with to help children.

John Best said...

Kevin;
As you are well aware, your word twisting was done previously. Your selective amnesia lets you forget that.
Enlighten us why you think it's a good idea to remove thimerosal from vaccines if it doesn't cause autism. Why bother if it doesn't cause any harm? Would you like to see a different untested preservative used that might cause different problems? Will you try to prevail upon us with Orac's illogic that chelation cures mertcury poisoning but not autism in spite of the fact that autistic kids are being cured with it? Will you cite some other wack jobs idiotic assertion that we can't be sure chelation is helping because we haven't controlled for natural improvement in kids who never improved in spite of years of behavioral interventions? Come on moron, show us how smart you are.
GR is helping children while knuckleheads from neurodiversity are effectively advising parents to do nothing to help them and throw them into institutions when they grow too large to handle. The parents who help their kids are the ones who love them, simpleton. The ones who refuse to help their kids are, effectively, child abusers like you. So, thanks again for preserving that.

Now, that's not to say that you haven't had those feelings previously (I imagine you have). I do wonder, however, if this sudden vocal concern for the "ailing vaccine program" has anything to do with the fact that you are finally realizing that even you can no longer defend the indefensible (thimerosal in vaccines).

Almost all symptoms of autism are in the Bernard paper, Kev. It's good to see you agree that mercury is not a good thing to be in anybody's body. So why do you leave it in your daughter's body? Why were you so stupid to let it be put there in the first place, Kev? Why didn't you take precautions to protect her? Why don't you listen to the doctors who admit that their profession screwed up? You just said you agree with the doctors who know it shouldn't be put into kids yet you advocate leaving it in the body? Does that sound intelligent to you, Kev? Why don't you ask your daughter what she thinks about having poison in her brain?
You said: "Removing something as a precuation and to raise confidence in a ailing vaccine program is simply the best move."
So, raising confidence in vaccines is more important than protecting kids from the damage caused by vaccines? That doesn't make much sense since the immune system becomes stronger by fighting off annoying things like Rubella, Chicken Pox and Mumps that really don't cause any harm. You've heard all of the proof. You just opt to deny it because you have fallen in with wackos who want to harm children to protect the drug industry.
You haven't seen evidence of kids being cured because you haven't looked. Why don't you take JB's offer to pay for testing your kid and fly over here where you can meet some cured kids for yourself? Calling us liars because you have your head buried in the sand is not a valid argument.
Were the two kids who died advised by anyone from GR? I doubt it. Those were simply more malpractice using the wrong chelators. I can't speak for everyone in GR but I don't advise anyone to try Ayurvedic medicine. GR has not been affilaited with any deaths. Your knocking GR just says to me that you want to see autistic kids remain rotting in the abyss like your daughter. You and Neurodiversity are sending kids to the institutions by telling parents not to help the kids. I'd be violating privacy if I gave you the names of kids I know in the institutions. They are there because idiots like yourself perpetuate the false notion that autism can not be cured.
Perhaps you can teach your daughter to swing from tree to tree but leaving the mercury in her brain won't help her to emerge from autism.
I've tried to teach my son many things. He's been unresponsive to most attempts. Since chelation started, he has begun to respond to some teaching. Being a primal instinct in those of us who aren't pussies like you, fighting happened to be one of the first things he took to.

Kevin;
You called me a liar, again.
You want me to list a paper that you already read.
You agree mercury should be removed from vaccines yet persist in claiming it isn't doing any harm to your abnormal kid.
You say doctors who admit they screwed up don't make any sense. Of course, you know more than those doctors which is evidenced by your kid's inability to talk.
You claim rubella's implicated as a cause of autism but neglect to mention that that is only if the mother has it. You claim mumps can cause sterility but neglect to mention that that only happens in adults. You claim measles and whooping cough can kill as opposition to my statement that purposely left out measles and whooping cough, thereby twisting my words agin.
You call chelation voodoo and claim your kid's making good progress without it but your 6 year old still can't talk. That's not normal, Kev. That's not good progress.
You had one item accurate, Kev. Self-preservation is a natural instinct. The mercury prevented my son from being able to use that natural instinct the way all kids do when you tickle them or tease them in teaching them how to defend themselves. He never fought back until some of the mercury was removed.
Your whole argument here is just foolishness.

John Best said...

Kevin;
If I consider heterosexuality to be normal and my "normal" should be avoided like the plague, will you be cheating on your wife with men now?
If your daughter is not abnormal then she can't be autistic since autism is abnormal. I know these are some of the arguments I present to you that you consider futile. Would you like to get help to answer them?
BTW, could you look at my new post, "Neurodiverse Perversions" and tell me if you think my Neurodiverse writing style is improving since my "Knuckleheads of Neurodiversity" posts? Also, I'd like your opinion about whether or not my new post is ethical. Some from your tribe think it is unethical but I thought it fit right into the Neurodiverse style.

John Best said...

Kev;
If you're not going gay then your previous statement claiming my "normal" should be avoided like the plague must have been false. You must agree that normal is rational. You said you wouldn't cheat on your wife by going "down to their sexuality" which is saying homosexuality is sub-normal. It's not a matter of cheating, which I don't do either but, of establishing what's normal.
If it was just my opinion that autism is abnormal, there would be no need for a diagnosis to describe autism. The whole world recognizes that autism is not a normal existence except for a few freaks from Neurodiversity. That makes it abnormal. That is why rational people try to help those afflicted with the condition. That is why people like Andrews, who wish to sent pictures of their groin to people, are recognized as abnormal and should be helped out of the abyss of autism.
It's interesting that you have no opinion about my ethics. Is that because you think Kathleen's berhavior of publicizing personal Emails is ethical? Or are you afraid to admit that she is unethical and a total disgrace to all of you who want to keep children wallowing in the abyss of autism?

John Best said...

Kevin;
You said " Whatever someones sexuality, that state is equally valid"
So with this statement, you find Andrews sending pictures of his groin to people to be valid.
This would also include homosexuals preying on young boys to be valid. And, of course, incest and bestiality would be valid according to you as well as rape.
Thank you Kevin. You have verified your level of idiocy.
My offer to send bananas was no reflection on your daughter. It was a comment on your own stupidity for comparing your own daughter to a monkey.

John Best said...

Kevin;
I believe the remark was that I could train a monkey to use a computer but I couldn't teach it to play poker. You turned that into me calling your daughter a monkey instead of interpreting it correctly and reasoning from it that you should cure your daughter so she could read faces and gain the ability to play poker amongst many other useful things that come into play from having that ability which autistics seem to lack. Do I really have to go to this much trouble to spell everything out for you, Kevin? See what happens when you continually try to twist people's words.
And, speaking of twisting words, your words were: "Whatever someones sexuality, that state is equally valid". You didn't say the sexuality had to be legal. At one time, homosexuality was illegal and still may be in some states. The guy from someplace like Finland who may want to have sex with a sheep probably thinks that should be legal. How is that different from gays who broke the laws? I think the gays are more perverse. At least the guy screwing a sheep is heterosexual.

John Best said...

Kevin;
You said:"In closing though John, I urge you once more to find a way to address your genuinely disturbing inclination to link paedophilia, rape and beatiality with sexuality. I wonder if the people who invite you into their homes under your banner as a Rescue Angel know about this? I wonder how happy they would be about you being around their kids if they did know."
I think they'd be happy to know I'm not a wack job who tries to justify perverse behavior like you.

John,
Your language and responses indicate you are autistic yourself. You certainly don't seem capable of accepting the idea that other people may think and feel differently than yourself. That's classic autism if you ask me. You also refer to nuts and wacko cases - hardly an appropriate way of refering to people with mental health problems (but such lack of feeling is sometimes found in autistics). Perhaps your son inherited this from you. Get yourself checked out. Oh by the way, my son is on the autistic spectrum and the evidence suggests he's inherited it from myself.

Anon;
People who have earned themselves the name "Wacko" are usually wrong. Autism is not inherited.

Quite right, autism itself is not inherited. However, the individual traits could be. if someone inherits enough traits to complete the triad and they inherit them in such a way that they can interfere with their daily life then who's to say they're not autistic.
Your language use makes me think you're American - and a rude self-opinionated one at that.
