It's a joke.

Because the US government announced today that they believe Tylenol causes autism, even though there's no real, reproducible evidence of this hypothesis. They made Tylenol a scapegoat with no evidence to try to make their dumbass base believe they have everything under control. So people are memeing about it.

    Perhaps you can understand how I as an autistic person do not find this funny.

    They are also purorting to be able to cure autism, via very untested means.

    I would prefer not to be medicated against my will.

    I think many of us, whether autistic or people with autistic friends and family, are horrified at what's happening and making jokes is the only way to not cry at the moment.

    Certainly the case for me.
