The Ford Model T was released in 1908. Anyone trying to tell you that being run over by a car kills people is entirely full of crap. There's real arguments that can be used. No need to publish weak crap that's easily refuted. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Voroxpete@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago Tylenol is a brand name for paracetomol (AKA acetominophen). It was first created in either 1878 or 1852 depending on which claims you believe about its discovery. The claim that autism was differentiated from schizophrenia in 1911 is unsourced, and seems suspect given that Leo Kanner first described autism in 1943, but even if we accept it as true, it still puts the discovery of autism after the discovery of paracetomol. RFK Jr is full of crap, and it doesn't matter when autism was discovered, because it's genetic and has probably been around as long as humans have, but trying to pull a gotcha like this is just going to make you look stupid. permalink fedilink source parent load more comments (2 replies)
