assign my the majority of my behavior, attitude, and temperament to genetics
this is the weird thing you do lmao
pretending like it is all genetics is fucking insane in the first place.
low vitamin d is a sickness by itself, as it for example causes depression and malfunctions in the immune system. It is quite a difference to cure people who are just autistic then to treat something that might increase the rate of autism in children. It’s not like vitamin d is the all cause of autism you know?
and the end state is not the same. treating a malnutrition issue is different from removing a part of natural human variation, even if that malnutrition issue caused a intensification of that variation. Autism is for most of us simply not a disease to be treated, but a totally normal way for a person to be. It’s like trying to use gen therapy to ‘cure’ trans people. Or use it to remove black people.
There are plenty of syndromes that exhibit both as symptoms
autism as a symptom of a syndrome? are you okay? do you know what these words mean? this is barley a sentence
Spinabifida is part of natural human variation. ALS is part of natural human variation. Cleft palates are part of natural human variation.
Many aspects of autism are simply lateral differences to NT people that society, in its inadequacy and bigotry, fails to account for, but being “natural” cannot suffice to establish something is “not bad”.

The treatment is explicitly stated as gene therapy.

Vitamin D deficiency results in the gene-writing anomaly that the proposed treatment is also correcting for. The difference is, firstly, the stage of development when you intercede to make a correction and, secondly, the anticipated success rate of the intervention.

But that’s just it. Malnutrition in pregnant adults is well-established as a casual factor in reduced cognitive function in children. Human variation is a consequence of environmental factors in pre-natal and early development. You aren’t just a product of your parents, you’re a product of your material conditions during the period of gestation.
Should physicians refuse to intervene after a child is born, because of variations caused in their mother during the period of pregnancy?
autism as a symptom of a syndrome?
Rett syndrome is an example of a syndrome that results in the patient’s behavioral characteristics meeting the definition of autism.
this is barley a sentence
Apologies if I no make words good. Me try better harder next time.
