Will this spell the end of 4chan?
>A drug discovered more than 100 years ago may hold the key to combating autism symptoms, according to a study.
>Researcher Dr Robert Naviaux of the San Diego School of Medicine gave suramin, a drug first developed in 1916, to 10 autistic boys between the ages of five and 14, and noted transformative results.
>"After the single dose, it was almost like a roadblock had been released," he said. “If the future studies show that there’s continued health benefits, this could be a game-changer for families with autism.”

Will you go buy some pills, /sci/?
>>8945809
YES
PLEASE SAVE ME FROM THIS ETERNAL FUCKING NIGHTMARE
>>8945830
are you diagnosed, anon?
>>8945809
>rt
>>8945848
Yes
have been since I was a child
naturally they went straight for drugging me until I was incoherent
I probably have severe brain damage from it, as the spark I had as a kid vanished soon after and never returned
hoping for transhumanism and gene therapy
perhaps they can reverse the damage that was done
>>8945809
YOU CANT MAKE ME TAKE IT
REEEEEEEEEE
>>8945809
Autism is my Super Power.
Autistic is the master Race of Future. The New Übermensch.
I don't want a Cure.
Autistics excels at Science & Math
Autistics are Genius.
Normies are Brainlet Scum Undermensch & must be enslaved.
>>8945848
I am now. But when I was a kid I was diagnosed with a seizure disorder (that I didn't have) and put on all sorts of drugs for decades.
Much like this 'study', neurology is a bullshit science. They don't know what they're doing and the only information they have is acquired experimentally rather than modeled and verified.
Also, Suramin? Holy shit, they're gonna kill people.
>>8945889
>not wanting the best of both
imagine the clarity and brilliance of the 'tism, with none of the downsides, being able to seamlessly do anything
>>8945895
>clarity and brilliance of the 'tism
That's a myth. I have autism and have talked to many autistic friends and none of our minds are clear. In fact, our minds are confused.
>>8945809
Autism is literally a spectrum.
Nice snake oil.
>>8945908
>snake oil
Snake oil would be an improvement, it's not as likely to kill you as Suramin.
>>8945902
suppose I flipped it by mistake
nevertheless, The good of the autism, the good of the normie for superhumans, and the bad of both goes into the trashcan
>>8945892
>neurology is a bullshit science
I went to a neurologist to get tested for ADD and he told me there was nothing wrong with me but he could give me Concerta if I wanted to. He literally offered me amphetamines just because. What happened? How does a scientific field becomes so full of shit?
>>8945955
>He literally offered me amphetamines just because
should have taken it
>>8945966
Now I know that but I was 15 at the time and didn't even know what Concerta was.

I doubt whether this can cure this cantankerous sore of cancer and autism, it would not surprise me if all it does is slightly tickle their autistic pickle while granting them immunity, by now legally it should be classified as not only an infectious disease but a mutating one. There is no hope. It has evolved. It is super autism now...
How can I become more autistic?
>>8946731
Develop a broad array of interests, become expert in them, declare yourself a Polymath.
>>8945809
what does the hat say
>>8945809
They should not be trying to cure the awesome superpower known as autism, they should be trying to find more ways to give people autism.
>>8947268
>what does the hat say
>>8947270
every day we're trying to come up with better vaccines to cause more autism
>>8945809
I'm really convinced that my little autism is what gives me the edge in math and science, so fuck off, I don't want to become a normie.
>>8945809
That controversial autist that wanted a cure will be so fucking happy desu.
>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jonathan_Mitchell_(writer)
I used to dream on finding the cure of autism so autists get a good life but I guess it has been found now.
HOWEVER
You guys should consider the autism organizations that will be agaist this, like using that argument of "muh neurodiversity" and "I'm normal gaize I sweer" bullshit so I hope all this medicine research should still be done even if they were shut down by lawsuits from these faggots that want money from them "autism therapies" and shit.

*throws shit to your mom*
>Autistics excels at Science & Math
Most of the most succesful scientists and mathematicians are not even close to autistic.
Autism is a codeword for mild retard.

How much of a genetic component is there to getting autism
>It started on my mother's side
>My 5th cousin has it (he's 80 years old and actually married, proof that there's hope for autismos), male
>3rd cousin has it (got married, Obsessed with Porsches), male
>I have it (male)
>1st cousin (male) has it, not diagnosed, but has the cardinal signs (little eye contact, flapping). However, forced early socialization (play groups with normal kids) got rid of most of the social skills deficits.
>>8948376
>autism

That's not autism. Behavioral problems and not speaking at all is autism. You're just victimhood shoping and it's a slap to the face of families with an autistic sibling/child.
>>8946949
Literally it should be the opposite. Develop an intense interest in an incredibly specific field, and concentrate all of your efforts to that one thing. Examples include memorizing license plate numbers, camera models, the names of places in the world.
>>8948387
autism, unlike gender, is actually a spectrum
>>8948402
Gender isn't a spectrum. There are only two genders. People who think they aren't either, or that they are the opposite of their actual gender, are in fact suffering from a form of mental illness.

So autists never get married?
Some parents will still want autistic kids for the fb likes so nothing will change.
