The Neurodiversity Cult, Autistic Abuse

Unlike most cults, there are no religious overtones or charismatic leaders to snooker the innocent lambs. The victims of Neurodiversity are not asked to give up their belongings and they aren't living in any group compounds. These victims have sacrificed something much more valuable; they have donated their minds for the purpose of serving this master with propaganda.
No sane person thinks it is a good idea to abandon children who are severely incapacitated by refusing to give them medical treatment when they are poisoned. When a parent learns that their child has been poisoned, the proper response is to contact a doctor and remove said poison. I never dreamed that I would have to make that statement. I must have been somewhat naive to believe that every parent would have at least that much intelligence. I guess I was giving some of my fellow parents too much credit.
The leaders of Neurodiversity have targeted the feeble-minded. What they have done is truly criminal. They have convinced people who have had their brains damaged by mercury that they should band together as a group of disabled citizens to tell the world through their blogs that they do not want their brain damage repaired. They have also taken this a step further to try to con society into believing that it is wrong to cure any person whose brain has been poisoned into autism. The leaders have said that curing autism is akin to killing the autistic person. Some autistic people who have the ability to type have fallen for this absurd notion and now have been brainwashed into believing it themselves.
Autistics became brain damaged due mostly to mercury in vaccines. The cult followers claim they can think for themselves. Some of them can't talk, aren't fully toilet trained and are unemployable. They have never experienced what normalcy is yet they proclaim they do not want to be cured. Their mental capacity is so limited that they can't understand the fallacy in their thinking yet, there they are blogging away to spread the deranged message of Neurodiversity. Our government needs to step in and put a stop to this abuse of disabled people.
One must ask who could possibly gain something by this abuse. These people have no assets to steal. It certainly doesn't appear that anyone could get rich by brainwashing autistics into telling the world that they want to remain brain damaged.
There are several possible beneficiaries to this lunacy. Our government, who should be protecting these disabled people could benefit if these victims could convince sane parents not to cure their autistic children. If nobody wanted to cure autism, the CDC could continue to poison babies all over the world with thimerosal and protect the integrity of the vaccine program. Then they wouldn't look like a bunch of negligent simpletons for causing the autism epidemic by never testing thimerosal for safety. The drug industry would be the most obvious beneficiary of this lunacy since, if everyone thought autism was genetic and the Neurodiversity Cult convinced the world to celebrate having autism, nobody would want to sue them for trillions of dollars for putting poison into babies and causing autism. Pediatricians, who injected the vaccines and now routinely lie to parents by telling them that mercury does not cause autism would be off the hook for their blunder.
Unfortunately for all of the above, the majority of parents on this earth have not lost their marbles and joined this ridiculous cult. Any parents reading this whose kids have signed on with Neurodiversity should seriously consider hiring deprogrammers to rescue the children. Autism is a nightmare and no person should go through life with it when cures are available.

Many people write the neurodiverse off as a bunch of nuts and try to pay no attention to them. Do some searches for "autism" or "curing autism" and see what pops up. These people are getting their message out. The activist parents who would love to publicize the mercury hypotheses and let others know about cures have their message hidden on group lists that the general public never sees. Blogs are a better way to help spread that message and the neurodiverse, with their professional propaganda experts, are winning that battle. More sane people need to step up and slap the neurodiverse around. If you search for autism blogs, the first thing that comes up is the Autism Hub. It's pathetic that the thousands of parents who know all of these blogs to be nonsense won't get together and knock them way down the list. I shudder to think of parents new to autism finding Autism Hub and becoming sucked into this crap.

Best, I was surprised you were bright enough to get my sarchasm, but what is the point of deleting my posts and THEN saying they are off topic? Thats just ridiculous to comment on something you have just removed. Your idiocy is the topic. It always has been. And also why bother naking a public blog when only you and your various incarnations are allowed to post? If you delete the posts which abuse you then you are removing the only socially beneficial aspect of the blog.

Apparently, you're the one drinking the Kool-aid.

John Best said...

Mouse, you haven't been paying attention. The mercury in the vaccines caused the autism. My son is recovering because I'm removing the mercury. That proves that mercury caused the autism. It it wasn't the mercury, he wouldn't be improving.

Anonymous said...

John, I believe your son will survive the autism, mercury or not. Your reasons for his "recovery" are really mistaken. People go through major changes in their teen years. To place mercury detoxification (before even having proven that your son has mercury poisoning) is ridiculous. Also, you still have to prove that mercury poisoning causes autism, which is beyond you (or the Griers). In fact your whole theory was rejected by the scientific community as quackery and Grier was thorouly discredited.

I think your child has a good chance of surviving autism without your intervention. I, however, doubt your child will survive YOU. And that is sad.

As I said in my first post which you deleted, John:

You are a blessing, John, because I know no matter how horrible I am at least I cannot be as stupid or deluded or evil as you. You exist so the rest of the world can feel good about themselves.

Normal people go through changes as teens. Severely autistic kids remain like two year olds. Look around you, adults who aren't fully toilet trained need help. Neurodiversity discourages them from getting that help.
You are associated with some very evil people who have made victims out of autistic people. That's why most of them hide behind pseudonyms.

Waiting for the autism vaccine, Nice link from 3 years ago. You'd think neurodiverse nitwits would have learned these things since then. When the cult leaders deny this information, the lambs are more easily led to slaughter. I wonder if the pending psychologist will ever figure this out.

I don't think the cult leaders allow victims to use real names. They don't want their parents to find them and rescue them.

An entirely hopeless being said: "I wonder if the pending psychologist will ever figure this out."

I'm intrigued here. What is a pending psychologist?

Another strangely hopeless being said: "Do you even understand the meaning of the word "logic"?"

I don't know who that was directed at, but - sure - I understand well the meaning of the word 'logic'.

Same strangely hopeless being said: "It sounds like you have a fair idea of who 'any mouse' is."

I don't think that the first hopeless being mentioned above has a clue who 'any mouse' is.

Any Mouse said: "This site is a masturbation fest for you."

Mouse... you calling John Best Jr a wanker?

You could be right!

The first hopeless being above said: "Members of cults always abuse those who point out the truth of their delusional existence."

Is that why you set up your blog? To abuse those who point out the nature of the cult you've sold (if not your soul) your kid to? You in particular, John, make the Mercury-Autism lot look more like the Waco lot than the Waco lot did! Not that I'd say that they were in any way rational, either.

The second strangely hopeless being above said: "If you really want to be ditinguished from all other anonymous comments, why dont't you just comment under your real name."

"ditinguished"? "dont't"??

Why "dont't" you learn to spell the simple words before trying out the big ones?! Since you seem to like being confrontational and hateful.

The first - maybe uniquely hopeless - being above said: "Severely autistic kids remain like two year olds."

Wrong.

Same UHB said:

"Mouse, you haven't been paying attention."

More likely you haven't.

UBH: "The mercury in the vaccines caused the autism."

You have shown no proof of this whatsoever.

UHB: "My son is recovering because I'm removing the mercury."

No, you cannot say that without proof. And you have none.

UHB: "That proves that mercury caused the autism."

No, it doesn't.... not by a long way. That was a circularity there...

UHB: "It it wasn't the mercury, he wouldn't be improving."

I'll assume that you meant "IF it wasn't.... ".

Even so, he could be improving in his state for reasons other than him being mercury poisoned... children develop.

You see, second strangely hopeless being mentioned above.... I know how to use logic. Because I understand not only the word, but also... well, logic.

Now that I have pointed out the UHB's irrational claims and shown how cultist his thinking is, I can look forward to a lot of abuse from him. Right?

I love to see idiots getting angry... they stand up and they take off their hats, and they throw them to the ground and stamp on them, as if it's the hat that's pissed them off. Purely metaphorically, that is. This is because they are too stupid to think of anything else.

I pity the two beings I mentioned above, for their infantile belief patterns and their irrational behaviours.

Any Mouse (from what I see here) looks to be quite an intelligent person, if a little dyslexic maybe (Any Mouse... you'd probably be the one with the answer to that one). I think that AM's input here shows something up in the mentality of the whole army of sockpuppets created by JBJr to agree with him(self).

Well, an interesting day I had looking at this. I may come back again!

John Best said...

Anonymous simpletons question my son's recovery from mercury poisoning because that knowledge is damaging to the cult of defending drug companies. Assholes like this don't care how many autistic people are damaged further by their lies. Their object is not to help autistics celebrate their neurodiversity. Their object is to have naive autistics write idiocy that harms themselves and helps make the drug companies look innocent.
Who the hell do you think you're talking to here, simpleton? I'm not some naive moron who buys your ridiculous claims that I have to show you proof that chelation is helping my son. Any sane parent would pay attention to the success many of us have had with chelation to help their own kids. Nobody who truly wants to help any autistics would try to claim that a treatment that helps kids does not work. You're a lying scumbag who is abusing autistic people and harming children of uneducated parents who might listen to your nonsense. And, as usual, you don't have the courage to back up what you say. You're just another good argument that neurodiversity is pure bullshit. Thanks for helping me out.

You may have even been one of them."

How could I? I don't know your e-mail address. Given how you conduct yourself here, though, I'm not surprised you get them (do not, however, infer that I would condone them: I have been one of many who have suffered such from JBJr himself... regardless of whoever does that, it's a shitty thing to do!).

Jonsmum: "If you don't have the courage or strenght to wrench yourself away from the cult of neurodiversity, (C O N), then at least have the backbone to comment under your blog/real name."

I'm thoroughly amused by how hypocritical you can be without having even noticed it. Stupid sod! LoL

And Strength is spelt STRENGTH.

Jonsmum: "Maybe my spelling mistakes indicate I'm dislexic, neurodiverse or just tired. You see, when the time shows 3pm on this blog, it's about 11pm in England."

Not all spelling mistakes indicate DYSLEXIA! And even if you are tired, it usually pays to check you post before you click the 'post comment' button. You're probably not neurodivergent, if you insist (without proof, as you do) that your son's autism was definitely and unquestionably cause by mercury poisoning (which is in fact totally different from autism: check the diagnostic criteria!).

Jonsmum: "Does this not constitute abuse, never mind complete disrespect for an autistic child?"

Tell me how that statement could possibly be conceived of as such! Not one of you autism=mercury-poisoning lot has eveer come up with reliable evidence of anything yet! Not very clever, really...

Jonsmum: "Nobody gives a toss about spelling mistakes."

Oh really? Maybe you should tell your mercury-mum comrade SueM that... it was her obsession for a hell of a long time! The only input she ever made in many cases... which showed that she'd little if any factual input to give anywhere.

Jonsmum: "Only a person like you, desperate for any opportunity to put other people down to make yourself feel superior."

Nah. I don't need to do that. I AM superior to you! You, on the other hand, will put down anyone you disagree with for that very reason. Again, you're a hypocrite, aren't you? Poor Jon.

Kevin_1000: "This actually shows that you're not interested in the real issues here AND you're blatant disregard for autistics."

This anonymous simpleton sounds like a pending psychologist who earned his BA (Basketweaving Architecture) in the special ed. program.
Autism didn't exist until Eli Lilly started poisoning babies in 1931 and this moron thinks autism does not equal mercury poisoning. This guy's too stupid to cure himself so he follows the guidelines of neurodiversity and claims that he's celebrating having brain damage. This lets him fit in with the other brain damaged morons and, for the first time in his life, he feels like he's part of the group instead of an outcast. That's how cults work, dumb fuck.

I believe Mr. Andrews puts his degree out there as evidence to people who may be misled by your lies that autism=byain damage that it does not.

Allow me to rephrase for you, Best. Mr. Andrews has a university degree. Mr. Andrews is autistic. Therefore autism does not equal brain damage.

Also, considering the nature of his degree, Best, he is an expert in the field of autism. YOU are not. You are - at your very best, Best - annoying and impotent (influencially impotent, I know nothing of your sex life - if you have one).

JBJr: "In fact, I never met anyone who advertised any degree besides a doctorate."

You don't know many people, then. Plenty of people here do it from the first university or polytechnic degree they get. Americans might be pitifully embarrassed about putting their BAs up by their names, because they're pretty poor, really; but I hear that the PhD in America is harder to get (sort of making up for the easiness of the BA; at least, my archaeology tutor was of this opinion... he was a Cambridge MA who went to U-Penn for his doctorate).

Any Mouse: "And this Best is only evidence that you know very few educated people."

I kinda agree here, Mouse... I've never known of anyone actually disown his education like Best does... in his effort to convince himself that he's not wasting money chelating the lad, he's actually convinced himself that his education was a waste of his money (if he really does have one... there's some people don't believe that he really exists... I'm working on the assumption that he does... for now). If he was like this at university, I'm surprised that he would have been able to keep his place on any course. Complete refusal to learn, basically. I'm glad he was never in any class of mine... the Disciplinary Committee would be dealing with him pretty quick into the course. Not many university-level teachers and lecturers would want to bother with him, I can bet. I'd refuse to teach him.

John Best said...

Mouse;
There are lots of scumbags with high degrees who still try to maintain the obsolete notion that autism is not caused by mercury. The fact that Andrews says the same thing just shows what a shoddy education he got. If it's not in a textbook, dumb bastards like Andrews will never learn it.
Some young people think they learn something useful in college. If you're lucky, college will teach you how to think so you can apply the rudimentary knowledge you gain to real life. Thirty years from now, Andrews might learn this through experience, if he detoxifies his brain so it works right.

John Best said...

God doesn't fly down to Earth to solve every little problem. He gave us smart and decent people like Andy Cutler to take care of that for Him.

"Look at me! I have B.A degree!",

It's nothing more amusing when the boarderlined retarded gorillas from the intellectual slum over at the neurodiversity island shot their weak diseased views at the sane and productive parents who just simply desire a decent life for their vaccine-injured children. It is certainly a characteristic among the neurodiversity shags that analyctic and intelligent thinking together with humanity and solidarity are qualites which are either not appreciated or simply never have or will be an offical policy because it comes in conflict with the whole idea of neurodiversity. The vision to the neurodiversity community appears to be a drugdependent population of mentally amputed lapdogs (or a celebration of neurodiversity as you wicked queers calls it), a state a high number of the neuroadministrators themself live in. The neurodiversity pharmacoperation is indeed a cult being lead by evil corrupt propagandapinheads, preferably the Seidels. You're doing much of the same of what the CDC does without claiming taxmoney for it.

I do not how many cocks you had to suck for your B.A degree, but I'm positive the number of them is superior to the number which indicates your IQ.

If you want to discuss the only interesting aspect of this case, the science, so come back when you're capable of independent, analyctical thinking. You're nothing more then a immature copycat who will never be more waluable than the weight of your wallet. You can only hope you'll outgrow your hopeless current state, if not, I'm sure the author of this blog can mail you a barrel of chelation products suffient enough to make you grasp that it will be best if your keep your mouth shut. Permanent.

I don't think MS Diva would make those comments outside of neuroinsanityland. I wish some people with older cured kids would send them to Kev's blog to let those lunatics know that none of them are asking to have the mercury put back in them. The non-autistic leaders of this cult should really be locked up. Delusional followers like Diva should be deprogrammed and cured.

David,

Do not answer any of John bests questions. It is never a good idea to give psychotics personal info about yourself.

Of course, if Best wanted to find out a quick google would give him all the info he needs. But don't allow him to drag your personal information into a forum which he controls.

He may be demented, but he is clearly dangerous.

John Best said...

Mouse;
Psychotics convince people who have brain damage from mercury that it is something to celebrate. Those of us with our heads screwed on right know that that is insane. I keep offering to help Andrews cure himself so he won't be such a nitwit but, so far, he can't see the truth through the fog in his head.

"David N Andrews; What ligitimate university did you obtain your MEd from? Are you a registered psychologist and if so, who are you registered with? What country do you intend to practice in?"

Hmm... okay. What is your full name and address? What do you do for a living? You prepared to answer those questions? If not, you can whistle for answers to yours. Now, personally, I do not wish to know ANY of those details about you; I merely make the point that you are asking for personal information without being prepared to give any collateral to me. That's not a particularly equitable status to try to put me in.

What I can tell you is this:

I studied under the UK's foremost practitioners and researchers, and I have successfully completed the MEd course, and I may (on the strength of my work standards so far) graduate with Distinctions attached; My supervisor (who has a book out on educational interventions) is pelased with my work. In the UK (where I trained), one does not need (at this point) to be 'registered' with the BPS, although - if one wishes to become a Chartered Psychologist - it is best to do so. Where I live and work, however, the BPS has no jurisdiction: hence, Chartered status is neither here nor there. However, I shall probably make an application to the BPS to check my studies against the requirements for Graduate Basis for Registration, since that is a more stringent criterion for membership than that which I am currently eligible for: Graduate Membership (and it is this status that I am, under the points aggregation scheme, eligible for). Eligibility for Graduate Membership (even without actually joining the society) is sufficient (according to one BPS document I have) for me to use the title 'psychologist'.

That should suffice for you, in the total absence of personal information about you.

As I say, I could not care less about what you do, or where you live. That is your business, and mine is mine.


Any Mouse:

"David,

Do not answer any of John bests questions. It is never a good idea to give psychotics personal info about yourself."

I think you're right, Mouse.

I don't think I have any legal duty to answer any questions from those people: I have tried to answer their questions (sometimes I have been angered by them, sure), and I have tried fairly to answer them, but they have continued to be abusive (although it's clear that - when someone they so cruelly abuse gets back at them - they can't handle it and cry foul). The people who need to know my qualifications know them, and where I got them from. The university is in the UK; and is a legitimate one, and that SHOULD satisfy jonsmum. If it doesn't then that is HER tough titty. My MEd course followed closely the BPS syllabus for training in the job that I do, and that will also be presented in evidence to the BPS when I ask about GBR. But quite frankly, it is no business of jonsmum's where I went. Unless she tells me where she went to college. Doubt she'll do that.

John Best really is going mad here: "I do not how many cocks you had to suck for your B.A degree, but I'm positive the number of them is superior to the number which indicates your IQ."

My IQ last measured was 129 (WISC-R, 1971). For what it's worth.

And I sucked no cocks, John, to get my MEd degree. What about you?

Don't answer that. You're obviously not worth talking to.

"any mouse;
I'm sure, as psychologist, David Andrews can think for himself, without being told what to do by you."

I can, and do. And he doesn't tell me what to do or not, although he actually does 'give a shit' about how you and your lot treat people who don't agree with you.

My statement previously posted still stands. I can say that I have studied in only real universities (Open, Oulu, Jyväskylä, Leeds, Sheffield, Sheffield Hallam and some others) doing things via the Credit Accumulation and Transfer Scheme, and then - when I moved to Finland, getting into universities here. In the system here, until the new two-tier higher education system (Bologne Agreement), nobody took bachelor degrees, so one would have BA or BSc status (not an unusual thing to see here; instead of saying it, people would give the name of the degree anyway, since they had studied for it, even it it has not been officially awarded... provided that was not their terminal degree: in such cases, the rule was to take the actual paper for it; otherwise, one would be BA or BSc, even in the absence of the paper qualification). This was subject - of course - to their being able to provide evidence to the proper authorities... and that I can do, and have done.

jonsmum: "You say you have an MEd."

I don't. My university does. I got the confirmation e-mail for that today from Glenys.

jonsmum: "If you have, that's fantastic, it really is, and I'm not being sarcastic."

Well, put it this way, I worked my bollocks off to get it. Which is the same for everything I've done, and since there is no wrong in stating what I have achieved... I think I have the right to feel free enough to state my achievements. Without people being sarcastic about it. Your friend JBJr has a different view. He thinks it's his duty to belittle anyone and everyone who disagrees with him. And you were doing this too.

jonsmum: "It's a marvellous achievement for anyone."

I think so.

jonsmum: "It is obvious from the way you post letters after your name, that you feel it's necessary to prove to people that autistics aren't necessarily unintelligent or incapable of obtaining academic success."

Not quite. It's about MY achievement which, when accomplished within a system that has consistently failed to take into account the needs of different learners. That was the system in the UK; when I was a really still rather non-verbal 5yr old at a UK school, and when I was an older still autistic child being seen by an educational psychologist who basically sold my arse by declaring that I have no learning difficulties; I was later diagnosed as Asperger-autistic, dyslexic and dyspraxic. Incidentally, the psychologist who did that was a Chartered Psychologist, so no amount of 'registration' for psychologists can demonstrate to me that it means quality service: it simply doesn't, since the predictors for provision of high quality service are not in the exams or the degrees obtained... they are in the people who provide high quality service. And it hasn't changed since then. This is why I went into applied educational psychology myself.

jonsmum: "I don't think anyone would disagree with that."

Why do I sense a 'but' coming along here?

jonsmum: "I am researching chelation, very carefully and very thoroughly for my son, but I am in no way advocating that you should do this."

On this issue, you are very different from JBJr.

jonsmum: "All I am saying is make an informed decision on everything you do.
Look at and research the information on mercury and autism.
You can believe autism is caused by mercury without agreeing with chelation."

I have. I've looked at it, and continued to look at it but I remain unconvinced of it, and for good reason. When I have been able to find a job in the very foreigner-unfriendly and autistic-unfriendly job market here in Finland I may get the luxury of being able to explain why, but that would require an open-mind stance from you if you are to see what I mean.

jonsmum: "I know 'brain damage' in itself sounds offensive to a lot of autistic adults and if I were autistic, I would probably be offended myself. But I would hope I would still have an open and inquisitive mind as to the cause of my autism."

From my position (I can't speak for everynody else on the spectrum, and I don't pretend to do so), I have seen MRI images of my brain. I have looked at the images of the cortex, and of the limbic system and of the brainstem... nothing 'abnormal' detected (in terms of damage). The use of the term 'brain damage' may not be the issue with many autistics: it's far more likely that it is the ASSUMPTION of brain damage that pisses us off. I do not deny the involvement of structural difference in autistic people's brains: this is quite evident in the results of psychological tests, to the point where - whilst not being diagnsotic in and of themselves - such tests can provide useful information about the way in which the autistic's brain organises sensory input along with the stored knowledge of previous input and forms perceptions. Perceptually, autistics are very different. The structural differences that bring this about can only be developed in utero (brain damage post natum does not cause the perceptual differences seen in autistics' test results, but it does bring about other perceptual difficulties). In utero in practical terms negates the influence of mercury toxicity being involved in the aetiology of autism. I would be stupid to deny that, in some autistic people's cases, there may well be additional brain damage incurring global learning difficulties (I would be happy to see research on this, but most research is clinical and much educational psychological research tends not to touch on the cognitive neuropsychology of it).

jonsmum: "
I would love my son to get an MA, BA, but at the moment I have no option but to concentrate my attention on his violent mood swings, lack of communication, obsessive rituals and the effect this is having on his six year old brother."

If the research on the Early Bird work is anything to go by (I'm an associate editor for Good Autism Practice, and so I get free copies of the journal... a lot is being made of this Early Bird stuff, and it does indeed look promising), you may find that implementing the activities recommended by the EB trainers will help: many seem to, according to the research (which - yes - is still in its infancy, but nonetheless is promising). I would say not to expect miracles. But to expect at least slightly significant improvement (on a semi-continuous basis) in your son's ability to act purposefully within his environment (as Wechsler defined 'intelligence') would not be unreasonable.

As for chelation, my own view is as follows:

1) Autism is not mercury poisoning (mercury poisoning is mercury poisoning; the criteria are very different)

2) Chelation for autism is not, in any way, a scientifically validated option (no properly conducted studies of it exist; this is also true, incidentally, for ABA treatments)

3) Chelation for poisoning by heavy metals is risky in adults; it is more so for children

4) I can only chose not to risk my child's life on the basis of an anecdotally pushed treatment (even if I believed that it was mercury poisoning, which I don't... the evidence put forward doesn't add up)

jonsmum: "You can believe autism is caused by mercury without agreeing with chelation."

Maybe, but - on the basis of the evidence - I don't have any reason to believe that it is caused by mercury poisoning.

I should point out that, when Wakefield conducted his study in the mid to late 1990s, he was originally studying a possible relationship between MMR vaccine and something called Heller's syndrome. So far, every case description I have seen (with enough detail in them, at least) of this 'mercury-induced-autism' fits the criteria for Heller's syndrome.

I would say that there is absolutely a diagnostic error: but it is not that of autism when it should be mercury poisoning; it is, rather, that of autism when it should be Heller's syndrome. And even qualitatively, that is quite different from the developmental thing we call autistic difficulties.

The diagnostics thing is a major part of my studies, since - where I live and work (Finland) - there is very little expertise on this matter; and I'm enough of what the Finnish call a 'dot-fucker' to pay attention to the details of these things (where most professionals are default set to 'see' more globally, which can actually play against clients/patients in these sorts of issues.

I'd like to think that you have at least been convinced that I *am* claiming an expertise that I have; the reason I was made associate editor in Finland for GAP was because my supervisor was satisfied that, when I'm talking about autism in particular, I don't have a tendency to 'talk bollocks' like most non-specialised professionals do. There's a reason why I've put the Heller's syndrome thing out there for you is because I think that - should you wish to pick it up and see how far that one can be rolled - you might well be surprised. And, even if it doesn't (after a *thorough* investigation) pan out... at least you know more about what to rule out.

DNA, really a psychologist who has successfully completed his MEd degree, who really has been teaching the best professionals in Finland (who really did turn out to have little useful knowledge on autism)... and who (when people turn off the sarcasm, as jonsmum seems to have done... I respect her for that) will discuss matters quite seriously (i.e., return the compliment, as I hope that this post has demonstrated). Bed-time... Two 25-page booklets to write tomorrow... training materials for the Finnish crowd... they don't have anything good here.

Chelation has been used for 60 years safely, no deaths until someone grabbed the wrong type of EDTA last year. The decision to do it was simple for me since I knew my son was normal as a baby and I knew he had way too much mercury injected when this information started becoming known around 1999. I learned about chelation in 2001 and it took me 3 years to convince my wife to try it. Those were 3 wasted years that might have made a huge difference in his chances of recovery. He's much better off than he was 2 years ago and I think he'll make it all the way back to normalcy. I can't guess how long it will take, nobody can.
David, the proper treatment for mercury poisoning is chelation and any doctor will tell you that. It is proven. It just hasn't been validated as a treatment for autism because the medical profession caused the epidemic and refuses to admit it. It's not the least bit risky when using a proper protocol. The fact that children are recovering does prove it works and it proves that mercury was the cause. Making unreasonable demands for proof just makes those who make those demands sound ridiculous.
If autism is not mercury poisoning, explain why Verstraeten kept rewriting his report and why the data he used is being hidden at a cost of $20 million to the CDC.
You worked hard for your degrees. So did lots of others. I just earned them to fill squares and it came easy for me. I'm not proud of mine, they're just something I did. You want to tout your education for your patients if you're practicing psychology, fine. When you do it to impress people on blogs, it just makes you look like a jerk.
So, let's hear why kids who never developed suddenly start improving with chelation. If you don't think it works, you must have some explanation for that improvement.

By that (and bear in mind it was about 3am when I was writing that), I mean that there is - as far as she is concerned - no feasable pathway for mercury to cause autism (given what the science - and I mean the REAL science) tells us.

Oh, and JBJr:

I don't actually remember asking you for your opinion on anything. When I want your opinion, I'll tell you what it is.

JBJr: "David, the proper treatment for mercury poisoning is chelation and any doctor will tell you that. It is proven."

Who is actually disputing that? I'm not. What is being disputed is that autism is mercury poisoning.

JBJr: "If you don't think it works, you must have some explanation for that improvement."

"p.s. why the somewhat calmer and more reasonable responses on this blog as opposed to Leitch's? You're a nasty pit-bull over there :)"

Actually, if you look at how jonsmum approached me in her latest post... none of the sarcasm and a lot more of the showing an appreciation of my experience and point of view... well... there it is. I'll respond to people how they approach me and my kind. She decided to change her way of talking to me, and I find it easier then to actually start communicating with her. When the Behaviour Analyst on ABFH's blog changed his way of talking to us all there, it was easier to relate to him too. I'm not particularly a 'nasty pit-bull'... but if you look at JBJr's typical way of talking to anyone who disagrees with him, you'll see why it's usually hard not to get spiky with people.

JBJr's way of communicating really fucks a lot of people off (including many on the autism-mercury side); no wonder his kid won't communicate with him... when my parents were like that with me as a kid, I wasn't up for talking to anybody! Not that they get it all that much clearer these days, but they still do better than he does.

Incidentally, most of my responses on Kevin's blog have been calm and reasoned; but when JBJr and his like go in there and fuck things up... I ain't gonna show any respect for them. I suppose also, even when I'm posting what I think is actually a calm response, my style (quite academic) tends to look a bit terse... just the way I am, but not necessarily an indicator of me sitting here being an angry bastard from the planet Fu' Ky-ooo.

Sometimes, in response to JBJr and his like, I take a Billy Connolly type of 'flighting' stance... and if you've seen him when he swears, you'd notice that he's actually grinning as he does it... and, me being a Scot, I do the same (Finnish guys and Scottish ones are very similar in that respect).

Anonymous said...

jonsmum: "
You and your wife do a joint assessment of him and see what you come up with."

Ex-wife.

As I recall, it was JBJr who began trolling the autistics' places and being very offensive even before anyone started getting into that mode of behaviour in responding to him. And every time that he makes any ventures into these places (be it a blog or a list), he does exactly the same thing. He makes flagrantly offensive comments and ends up being treated to nasty barrages.

Any behaviour analyst would spot the problem there: it isn't to do with propensities on the so-called 'neurodiversity' side... it's him. And anyone who does what he does is highly likely, since he has repeatedly produced this response from people, to get the same thing.

When people take a different approach (as you did in the post I responded to earlier), that in itself facilitates easier communication. I hope that you realise that I saw that difference in your approach, and was able to respond more reasonably because of it. I certainly felt better about that way of communicating... and - even though I am never going to be convinced that chelation is really appropriate in the package of helping resources - that doesn't mean that I don't have other ideas that you could use (or that, conversely, you don't have anything to say that I might find useful myself). That is what I was hoping you'd pick up from my latest response to you.

JBJr: "Certainly doesn't seem to be the type of thing a pending psychologist would say."

LoL... so transparent. Nah... it's ths sort of thing that one would generally say when someone is sticking their nose where it isn't wanted. I didn't ask for a JBJr opinion. I don't need one. A JBJr opinion is not really something to want to have.

jonsmum: "Can you not see the sarcasm, the condescension and the patronizing way he belittle's anyone who dares not to agree with him."

I see that in JBJr's behaviour and since it is he that begins it where-ever he goes, it's hardly surprising that others retaliate with like. You yourself have demonstrated that, when you post something that isn't sarcastic, you can actually give the signal to the other person that it was a genuine communication attempt and that such a signal facilitates better communication (this is actually part of the Early Bird work... parent-child communication skills; here, it would be non-autistic-with-autistic communication skills). I actually felt better responding to that post.

jonsmum: "How would you have felt if someone said this to your mother when you were a child?"

Actually, I kinda half-wish someone had said it, since it might have made her think about how she communicated with me. I spent the last 40 years trying to prove a point to her about me (i.e., not lazy, but disorganised; not neurotic about writing, but demotivated by long-term lack of recognition of some serious specific learning difficulties; and so on).

jonsmum: "He is probably sick to the back teeth of the highly offensive and personal remarks about his son."

We are similarly sick of his remarks about us and our kids; and even when people have tried to be reasonable with him, he has persisted in being offensive. If he wants a concerted effort from autistics to be nice to him, he might find that being nice first to us is a good way to go. Sad thing is, I'm not sure he can do it. I have tried MANY times, but he continues to be abusive. So why should I bother? You on the other hand... you changed the way you talked in a post, and I responded accordingly. Which someone else actually noticed. I'd say that's good preliminary evidence of how changing one's mode of talking to people can lead to significant changes in the response one gets.

And, jonsmum, here's a case in point, regarding continuous sarcasm:

CSN: "I will be more inclined to see you as an "expert" in the particulars of autism/biomedical issues/toxicity when you show that you have experience there... otherwise, we are all on an equal playing field."

Not really. I have seen very little understanding from you of anything. Maybe you could lose the attitude, and I might talk to you more easily; but the last time I tried that (assuming you are not JBJr but are SueM), you carried on being bitchy.

John, grow the fuck up, or shut the fuck up. For a start, you have absolutely fuck all evidence of any mercury poisoning in MY brain or anywhere else. Nor do you have any reason to assume that there is. Maybe you need a therapist to get over your hate of autistic people (I believe that jonsmum does not indeed hate autistics; JBJr, however, is something else entirely... he hates purely to hate), but I am not your therapist, John... I will be for about 5000 bucks an hour, if you like. However, I don't hold out any hope of relief from that hatred, John. You will die a bitter and twisted old man.

Before I do go...

jonsmum:

"In England, when a child is diagnosed as autistic, they are then passed straight over to the local education authority, who proceed to manipulate the parents into placing their child into mainstream education, (whether this appropriate or not).
There is no follow up with the diagnostic team, and no reviews."

Yes, I know. I trained in the Midlands there, but have been a practitioner here and it pains me to say that, whilst the situation in the UK is better than it is in Finland, the difference in many many cases is not really significant.

My training, for what it's worth to you, does tell me that when a child is given the autism diagnosis, there should have been medical checks as well as psycho-educational ones.

As for the mercury issue... you know my views on that BUT... were I your child's educational psychologist, I would refer for a tox screen because at least you'd get to find out if there was a tox issue going on or not, and - if there was - what it would be. It's wrong to deny a concerned parent useful information, one way or another. If a parent has a legitimate concern (and, hell, ANY concern regarding children is legitimate, I'd have thought!), it is the duty of whatever practitioner that parent consults with to give the parent peace of mind *but not at the expense of accuracy of information*.

The emphasis on placement in mainstream may well be appropriate for some autistics, but not for all; and I agree that there is a manipulation issue going on: the root of it being money.

As for the lack of follow up, I have to say that such practice falls well short of what should happen. Review is important in any case. Here's an irony for you: Finland has an excellent system of very regular review during childhood (much better, in fact, than the UK's system: not many things here impress me, but that thing actually did)... but they still miss so much (my thesis was a case-study on a chap who fell through the net, and the review that would have been most useful for him would have been whilst he was at polytechnic still... educational support could have been given and he'd probably have been able to get his BEng degree, albeit at a push).

I'm sorry that my so-called colleagues (other practitioners) engage in such pitiful practice with you and other parents and children like your son to about the same extent that they did with my parents and me. I'm actually embarrassed by their ideas of good practice, to be honest. Whatever we disagree on, I do agree that you have a right to be informed as best you can be about your child and his progress and likely progress in the future... and I am (again, if it is worth anything to you, and I hope that it is) very much in support of you on that and other issues you raised in that post. I will never agree on the mercury thing, we have established that; maybe we will lock horns elsewhere because of it. But I really do hope, and very sincerely so, that you can get your local practitioners to discharge their duties appropriately at some point soon. And I hope that your realise that I do mean well in the content of at least the latest few of my posts. I really did appreciate the change of tone, and the chance it gave me to change mine.

Andrews;
I'll tell you again since I know you're slow. I'm not posting under anything but Foresam. This is the type of crap Leech pulls with his half-quotes and extrapolated illogic. At least when you try this crap here. I get to respond without some dishonest nitwit deleting my comments.
When the lot of you neurodiverse liars earn a smidgeon of respect, I'll treat you that way. Your practice of heisting quotes off of lists where you don't belong and then bashing the people whose quotes you take out of context is deplorable. Do you think you deserve respect for that? You have a bunch of parents trying to help their kids who don't understand a damn thing about the science and you assholes are trying to make them look foolish just because they ask questions that they need answers to to help their children. Your laughing at these people and you think that deserves respect? You come up with this nonsense about killing the autistic person by curing him and making parents out to be monsters who try to help their kids who can't do a damn thing for themselves. You call parents liars who talk about their children recovering. You go way out your way to publicize a mistake that resulted in death and use it with your delusional logic to claim that all chelation is harmful.
You are nothing but a bunch of lying scumbags and you deserve everything I've said to all of you. You with your pompous attitude about being an expert on autism just because your too stupid to realize that autism is no longer incurable and without a known cause. What does it take for you to smarten up? You don't know anything about autism. You can't tell us the genetic cause of your own condition because the cause is most probably not genetic. If your parent had autistic traits, he had mercury poisoning traits. Find me 1 in 166 75 year olds or shit up about their being autism before 1943 that was not frgile X or Rett's or some other identified genetic condition. You can't do it and neither can any of the other propaganda wizards who infest Neurodiversity. You may actually be dumb enough to believe what you say but, trust me, some of those assholes you associate with are professional propaganda experts. No group of people could be stupid enough on their own to refuse to see the good that has been done by Safe Minds and others who uncovered the cause of this God damn epidemic. It's not OK to poison children and your pals who keep denying this link are going to be found someday by people like me who will rip their fucking heads off. No wonder they all opt for anonymity.

Has anyone seen the youtube video of Andrews that's on Leitch's blog? I think I've seen Andrews before but I'm not sure where. He reminds me of the picture of the bum on the cover of the Jethro Tull album "Aqualung". I also thought he might be the guy from "Animal House" who was playing the guitar that Belushi smashed against the wall except you have to imagine him about 300 pounds ago without the beard. Then, on a second look, he looked something like the guy in that Austin Powers movie who was called "Fat Bastard". I had an image of what he might look like and it was pretty close except his eyes seemed to be spinning clockwise instead of counter clockwise. Anyhow, seeing what he looks like gives you an idea just how screwed up he is. Who the hell else could be in school for 40 years and still have a BA pending?

I'm afraid I can't contribute much more substantive information to the US goverment than what exellent non-profit organizations like GenerationRescue and Safeminds have.

Oh yuh, in the box beside the video it says, "David Andrews, the musician, is a psycho" so now we know that Leitch must also consider him to be psychotic.

I watched the whole song by Andrews. It sounds like a cry for help for someone to rescue him from falling down into the abyss of autism.

John Best said...

Jonsmum;
I really do consider Andrews and every other autistic person associated with Neurodiversity to be victims. However, they can't be reasoned with. So, when they keep spouting their mantra, you just can't be nice to them.
They all know that, as parents, we all want the same things they want for everyone afflicted with autism. They should all be given every assistance they need to achieve their potential. Bringing enlightenment to public opinion is part of that.
Sane people have to draw the line when they convince parents not to help their autistic kids beat this condition that is going to land a lot of them in institutions. The is no logic behind their opposition to a cure so you have to suspect ulterior motives for such insanity.
Their professional blogging has the potential to affect public opinion for the majority of the public who are uninformed about autism. So, all of their arguments need to be blown up at every opportunity. Without public opinion on our side, our kids will never get the treatment they need. Parents who haven't done the reading that we have will never learn how to help their kids. The epidemic will go on unabated in the third world and the criminals who propogate the epidemic will never be stopped.
If some autistic cult members who can't reason out the truth insist on being vocal about the beliefs they have been duped into, they'll have to be slapped down. If they take some abuse, it's unfortunate but essential. The fact that the poisoning is still going on is the most despicable crime in the history of the planet. Some naive people probably think our government will tell the truth about all of this.
David won't believe any of this until it's written in a history book. He only knows how to accept learning from teachers. He hasn't learned how to teach himself.

Anonymous said...

Wow! I just saw the video! David Andrews can sing and write and teach and lecture. He's intelligent and skilled and qualified. I wonder what he's doing hanging around a blog with losers like john best and jonsmum?

By the way, I believe the fellow on the cover of Aqualung is drawn on Ian Anderson, who is now, I believe, a Lord (anyway a very talented rich and respected man). David Andrews should be flattered to be compared to such people. His musical talent is certainly as good.

Dear David. Stop trying to save John Best. May I have your autograph instead.

And, John, keep promoting David's video. The more you disparage it the more people will want to see it. All publicity is good.

Dear John,

I have finally figured out how your existance can be beneficial to autistic people. You can stand, as a safe example on the internet, of the evil people to be avoided in real life. With no offence to Charlie Brown, as I quite like him wheras I do not like you, I hold you up in front of the class and say:

"This is a bad person. He will bait and abuse you to make himself feel good. Study him closely, identify the dcharacteristics, and minimize association with people like John Best."

John Best said...

Mouse;
Andrews' childish song crying for help can not be compared with one of the greats of Rock and Roll just because he looks like a bum who crawled out of the gutter.
After you are deprogrammed, you will see things in a more rational light.

Anonymous said...

John,

Ian Anderson dressed up like a crazy bum/lunatic and capered about on stage like a crazy man. What a wonderful statement for neurodiversity.

And musically what David does is very comparable. Though I'm sure you know little about music so I will not bother you with the details.

The more you criticise this the more ridiculous you sound because David is quite good. A capable, successful autistic person. As an individual he discdedits all your arguments. A great thorn in your side, I am sure.

Hmmmmmmm. I wonder if there are other autistic people like David Andrews. You know, I think they are legion.

As for me, I hang around here, John, because I find it fascinating that such a person like you can exist and I enjoy insulting you. As for Ian Anderson vs David Andrews musical talent I don't think there needs to be a competition. David is extremely good and comparing them is not an insult to either Anderson or Andrews. You, not being a musician, would not understand and you should keep your remarks confined to your areas of expertise... Seeing as you have no areas of expertise you should just shut up.

Anonymous said...

you know, I never bookmarked your blog ,john. To find it I just google "hating john best" and there it is.

But thank you for making me thinking of aqualung. A bit of musical/literary analysis which I enjoy. You certainly have it wrong.

The song is certainly a plea for understanding for the old man. The beginning is a refection of what the assholes of society, yourself a prime example, would see. And that is all you see. Yet the music changes. It becomes quieter and it presents Aqualung as a human being.

Perhaps Ian Anderson is saying that the Aqualungs are NOT all panty sniffing reprobates. Perhaps he is saying that the aqualungs are human beings like us. As he says at the end "You know its only me."

And then he repeats the beginning lines at the end when we should be seeing them with a different light.

Did you listen to the rest of the lyrics, John, or are you just fixated on the pedophile imagery.

Mouse;
What makes you think I'm not a musician? I used to play the trombone and the drums. I saw Jethro Tull in concert about 30 years ago. There is not the slightest comparison between them and Andrews except for that picture of Aqualung. I wouldn't hire Andrews to muck stalls in the stable I used to manage. By the looks of him, he's probably more effusive than the horses.

John Best said...

Do we have any bets on what it is Andrews goes down on? I didn't listen closely to the words in his song. I was just reading his face to see how much of a screwball he was.

I will forget the insults , John, for once (though you do ask for them). I have been looking through utube and I would like your opinion on this video.

These people and this conference totally discredit all your arguments about brain damage and neurodiversity having no value and that autistic children cannot grow up to be quite capable autistic adults. Your son should be lucky enough to grow up to be like any of these people. With your help he can, and hopefully without your help he can, too.

I don't expect your opinion to be positive or sensible so don't worry.

Mouse;
I looked at your video. Too bad it didn't let us hear all of what Aqualung had to say. While I was there I also watched this one
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-fouye8Y4bg&NR
This thing was pure propaganda from Aspies for Freedom. It tries to paint people who help autistics as making them feel bad about themselves by suggesting that children who can't talk or cross the street safely should just be left to suffer with brain damage. You are intentionally trying to confuse the issue. Aqualung may not need a cure since he can talk, read, write and, probably can toilet himself although he looks like he could stand delousing. Kids who can't do these things need help.
They don't make the holes bigger on a golf course for people who can't putt. Help is available in the form of lessons and practice. The game becomes more enjoyable when you work at it and taste success. Life also becomes more enjoyable when you take positive steps to improve yourself. You aren't recognoizing the fact that more mercury has made the mercury poisoning misdiagnosed as autism much worse than what your functional adults go through. Your saying we should let our children go through life without improving their deficits when we now know how to help them. You are a bunch of sick bastards for pushing this agenda that benefits the drug companies who poisoned our kids. You should talk to adults who have cured themselves. None of them ask to go back to the way they were. None of you have the balls to face your problems and defeat them. You all want to wallow in self pity instead of accepting the challenge of normalcy. This is insane but you would have to be a sane person to understand. You and Aqualung don't qualify in your present states.

I can't possibly type all of the words I just wrote in 3 minutes since Jonsmum posted before me. I'm used to having a secretary do my typing so I get by with two fingers while I hunt and peck.

"Whether you beleif autism is genetic or caused by mercury poisoning, you cannot deny there are autistic people (adults), whose quality of life and the problems they endure, cannot be compared to the autistics in this video."


I also cannot deny that there are many neuro-typicals who have pretty miserable lives, too. You seem to be somehow guaging quality of life on success. If your kid grows up to be a married nine to fiver working at the local MacDonalds with two point five kids that might qualify him as "normal" yet it may not guarantee his happiness.

Despite anyone's "disabilities" or choices they may make in their life the way things work is that if people do not toe this illusionary line of normalcy they are labled as different and their powers of self determination is TAKEN FROM THEM by a system which is designed to disenfranchise anyone who steps off that line of normalcy for whatever reason.

What I hate about this site "Hating Autism" is that it's message is just that, that difference in all it's forms is bad and it should be punished. Furthermore John Best uses this blog as his own personal playground to bait and abuse people. If I call him an idiot and a monster he can easily delete my comments, and of course his own, but to intentionally insult and slander people who have autism to the point where they may say something harsh against him so that he can say he is a better person than them is absolutely reprehensible.

As it is with the video, An Empowerment Conference, of which this is only a trailer, it shows a movement of autistic people trying to break free of the stigma which a society full of John Bests imposes upon them. I am planning to contact the filmmakers and buy a copy of the full video.

Anonymous said...

let me rephrase:

normal does not mean happiness

normal does not exist

people who are miserable often like to cling to the illusion that normal=happiness and set up a subgroup called abnormal which they believe equals miserable.

John, are you happy?

Anonymous said...

"Do you acknowlege or deny that there are neuro-typicals who have to wear protective headgear sometimes to minimize self harm, who cannot speak for themselves, cannot communicate, whose lives are full of anxiety and fear. They cannot function independantly. They have no awareness of their condition, never mind the ability to lecture the public on their condition. This is a reality."

This is a loaded question and it immediately tags a whole group with an extreme condition of disability. It is a question meant to disenfranchise. You would not answer the above. In fact, you never respond positively to anything I have to say so why would I answer your directed questions, John?

Anonymous said...

What a fucking dung of hippocricy! How old are you anny? Old enough to drive a car?

No matter what the cause of autism is noneone deserves to be left in the back of the trailer because some twisted cracksheads like yourself get a rush from disabled individuals. You should seriously consider seeking a psychatrist. Had it been my call, the neurodiversity chiefs would been locked up at the asylum years ago.

I'm fully aware that you're are not the brightest pencil in the pencilcase, but everyone with an IQ above 80 must be capable of understanding that injecting a neurontoxin in 8-10 pounds babies will cause damage, if not instant then in the long run. Buy a nurse to explain it for you slowly if you need it further down with a spoon.

But nevermind the mercury, your SOB.
I do not give fuck wheter autism is caused by cell phones, microwave ovens or fucking snow. It's a horrible disorder, and must be cured for all it's worth. My main problem with the neurodiversity island is not your scientific ignorance, is your disgusting embracment of massive disabilities. Your hardcore psychotic love for people who will never be able to talk, read, write or do simple math is impressively tragic. They can't even wipe their own butt! If you had been smart you would've perhaps even been dangerous. Scums like the Seidels are barrely worth the rope they ought to, and one day will be hanged in.

Anonymous said...

John Best is one of the worst examples of neuro-typicals. If you are unfamiliar with the term it means "normal" although it is a misnomer, because the reality is that normal does not exist, and at any rate John Best with his extreme hatred can not even claim "normal".

As for answering a question with the lead in "do you acknowledge or deny" and then pins the worst of characteristics on a whole group of people in an attempt to discredit that group I answered why I would NOT answer such a leading question, a question which would be illegal in a court of law. All I can say is "I object your Honor. This person is acting like a prick. Please hold them in contempt."

I believe I have answered you as to why I will not answer your question. I'm too smart for your rather obvious tactics, John.

By the way, John, by creating caracters like "wj" who swear and abuse in the name of defending a quack cure and getting money out of the drug companies you are only discrediting your own camp.

But that is fine. You dont have a leg to stand on anyway. I presented you with an international conference full of well spoken autistic adults and all you can do is throw wj at me to insult and abuse. You are sounding worse and worse. I don't care if your father did beat you as a child. I don't care if the bullies did wail on you in junior high school, that is no excuse for spreading hate literature against autistic people.

You can shove this nonsense. This site isn't about hating any person. It's about hating the fact that our kids were poisoned and now must endure brain damage. The fact that ridiculous, insane, inane and untrue arguments by neurodiversity get blown up here by myself and other sane people is not a poor reflection of any of those sane people if one of your knuckleheads gets caught in the crossfire. If you don't like me calling you all "brain damaged", show me some sanity by discontinuing your practice of telling us we should not do everything humanly possible to help kids who can't function.
It was you assholes who started this battle, not us. Every sane person here wants to see all autistics get whatever help they need, especially since we are parents of autistic kids. You(pl) perpetually demonstrate no affinity for rational thought and your deranged opinions will be shot down by whatever means available. We would all be happy to help you but you aren't rational enough to accept the help you need.
