could our "protected characteristic" of autism be cancelled?

I note with concern that Trump has started targetting other countries who have diversity policies:

Countries enforcing race or gender diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) policies will now be at risk of the Trump administration deeming them as infringing on human rights.

One of the next logical steps after going after race and gender is the disabled characteristic I suspect.

I wonder how this will play out now.

Having said that it could also be part of a smokescreen he is trying to throw up to cover for the Epstein file release that is about to happen.

One friend even suspects he will get into a shooting war with Venuzuela so he can declare a state of emergency and shut all this down.

What do you think? Diversion or is he going to be coming after us all round the world by proxy.

  • I didn't see the OP as scaremongering but more of a debate starter. I can see less tolerance in society towards anyone outwith the 'norm' and maybe now is the time to think the unthinkable may just happen. I doubt it will happen in the UK but fear we may be pulled into a slow descent to the bottom.
