The History of Autism: Early Descriptions

How did the description of autism emerge in history? And as alluded to earlier, the word autism was first used medically by Swiss psychiatrist Paul Eugen Bleuler in the early 20th Century. In the early 1900s, Paul Eugen Bleuler conducted research on schizophrenia, first describing the condition in a lecture in Berlin in 1908. He published his findings in 1911, where he defined traits associated with autism as a “detachment from reality, together with the relative and absolute predominance of the inner life”. He described autism as a symptom of childhood schizophrenia. We know now that autism is not the same as childhood schizophrenia. However, children with autism were commonly diagnosed with childhood psychosis or childhood schizophrenia at this time.
However, the Russian Empire born child psychiatrist Grunya Sukhareva’s characterisation of autism came two decades before the psychologists most widely credited for “discovering” autism as we know it today. Her findings and observations in the 19th century mirror the modern diagnostic criteria for autism. Her studies in 1925 described autistic traits with a sympathetic and empathetic tone, focusing on the success of the children in her care at the sanatorium school in Kyiv, where she worked as a psychologist. She looked after six boys and five girls who would now be considered autistic. Her description of the children focuses on their interests and talents, such as; 12-year-old who taught himself to read aged 5 (he preferred the company of adults to peers his age and was physically challenged); a child who was a talented violinist but struggled to read social cues; and a child who was talented mathematically but couldn’t read or recognise faces.
Her definition of autism describes children with an “autistic attitude”. Some of the traits she described align with the modern diagnostic criteria we have today, such as: the children found it hard to adapt and were never fully themselves with their peers, often preferring solitude; or they had a tendency towards automatism, preferring repetitive tasks
Following the work of child psychiatrist Grunya Sukhareva, was the work of Leo Kanner. Born in modern-day Ukraine in 1894, Leo Kanner immigrated to the United States in 1924, where he began his paediatric and psychiatric studies. In 1938, he began work on explaining how autism was not a precursor to schizophrenia as previously believed. He studied a group of eleven children to develop a diagnosis of “Kanner Syndrome” which became the basis of Autism Spectrum Disorder.
He published his findings in 1943, and his work shared striking similarities to Grunya Sukhareva’s studies. The children Kanner observed were “happiest when left alone” and carried out repetitive behaviours where actions “were carried out in the same way in which they had been performed originally”. Kanner also observed that the children were often delayed in their speech or used to speak in inflexible ways, with the repetition of certain words or phrases. He claimed that the behaviour of the children was a result of an anxious and obsessive desire for sameness.
Then there was the work of Hans Asperger. He was born in 1906 in Vienna Austria, and worked as a child psychologist during WWII. Historically, Aspergers was used as a diagnosis for people with Autism who did not have a learning disability.
In 1944, Hans Asperger observed children who struggled to form friendships, struggled to follow social cues, had special interests and had below-average motor skills. As the paper was published during World War II in Germany, it was not widely recognised until it was translated into English in the late 1980s. Now, Aspergers is no longer an official diagnostic term since 2013, partly due to the controversy surrounding Hans Asperger, it’s been debated whether Asperger willingly participated in the Nazi’s Child Euthanasia Program, which is why people who would have previously been diagnosed with Aspergers now are diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder.
Finally, by the 1980s and 90s, the diagnostic criteria for autism became much more standardised, with the introduction of diagnostic frameworks like the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders and the International Classification of Diseases. The diagnostic criteria in the 1980s described the key features of autism as: (1) impairment in social interaction, lack of responsiveness to others, limited or absent use of nonverbal communication and difficulties with relationships; (2) Delayed or deviant language development, echolalia and lack of spontaneous language; (3) Restricted and repetitive behaviours such as repetitive movements, insistence on sameness and narrow intense interests; and (4) Present before the age of 30 months.
But, in the backdrop of this history, Robert F. Kennedy Jr exposed a secret CDC meeting about the rise of autism from vaccinations. He states that they looked at one vaccine, which is the hepatitis B vaccine. They looked at children who had gotten it in the first 30 days, and then they looked at children who had not gotten it in 30 day (in other words, the children who got it later or did not get it at all). Well, the CDC compared these two groups. And among the children who got the hepatitis B vaccines in the first 30 days, there was an approximately 10,000% increased risk for a later subsequent autism diagnosis! This means that the CDC immediately knew what was causing autism.
GENETICS: THE CLAIMED CAUSE OF AUTISM
This then brings us to the second question regarding what is the claimed cause of autism? And generally, medical research tell us that autism tends to run in families. For instance, a meta-analysis of 7 twin studies claim that 60 to 90% of the risk for autism comes from your genome. This means that if you have a child with autism, you are more likely to have another autistic child. Your other family members are also more likely to have a child with ASD.
Additionally, this body of research states that changes in certain genes or your genome increase the risk that a child will develop autism. If a parent carries one or more of these gene changes, they may get passed to a child (even if the parent does not have autism). For some people, a high risk for ASD can be associated with a genetic disorder, such as Rett syndrome or fragile X syndrome. For the majority of autism, multiple changes in other regions of your DNA  increase the risk of autism spectrum disorder. The majority of these DNA changes do not cause autism by themselves but work in conjunction with many other genes and environmental factors to cause autism.
Well, it is fitting that this discussion follows a series of discussions we’ve had on eugenics because vaccines are also implicated in eugenics practices. In particular, the mRNA jab has been proven to have the potential to change people’s DNA.
UTISM: AN ORCHESTRATED CRISIS THROUGH VACCINES
And now onto the final question regarding how autism is an orchestrated crisis through vaccines? Well, the mRNA jabs are not the only connection vaccines have to autism – so much so that autism has actually been an orchestrated crisis that is significantly driven through vaccines. And unfortunately, a lot of parents are discovering this after having trusted doctors to be honest about the impact of jabs on their children.
This intentionally orchestrated crisis of autism that is driven through vaccines shows a constant thread of eugenicist practices that are rooted in the depopulation agenda. No one can afford to give an unqualified resumption of honesty and credibility to medical practitioners (especially parents). Today, more than ever, the cost of doing that is far too great.
