      I think the psychologist's explanation was just a more scientific and specific explanation that a lot of people outside of the psychology field would have trouble understanding. The doctor was able to put it more in perspective for Cruise with direct examples

    Boy Charlie is a "Pr@ck!" He's told not to touch Raymond's Books but he still does. I have Three Cousins who are Autistic. One was born in the 1960's during a time where nobody knew what it was. When he visited my Great Aunt, she would make him Chocolate Milk with Nestle Quik but she would use an Old School Tin. When I asked why she explained "He won't drink it unless it comes from that tin." It was the 1980's and I didn't understand at the time but now I realize it's familiarity. I think this movie did more to educate people about Autism the same way The Hallmark Channel did with The Promise with James Garner (RIP) and James Woods.

      Same i have Asperger's and it's really got me interested in neuroscience and the structures of the brain, like the profound affects of serotonin and dopamine has on the brain, it's not just the happy chemical, it seems to be instrumental in the process of memory creation and feeling "in the moment" the "flow" state of the mind, increased connections in the amygdala which regulates emotions, or how the pineal gland product natural dmt in the brain when were sleeping and after we die. Or how humans learned to associate abstract concepts to symbols(language) i definitely think the pineal gland has something to fo with that, when we learned to let go our our animal ego to think about the future, to think about the concept of beauty, when we started making art is particularly fascinating to me, because you had to memorize an abstract concept and derive deep meaning from essentially useless information, or useless information when it comes to surviving, it all goes in with the stoned ape theory

      @@usualdosage7287 My only problem with the stoned age theory (at written by Terence McKenna, who I love) is that not being able to trace parental lineage would result in a lot of interrelated copulations. Also, while psychedelics certainly enhance activity in areas related to many human functions like empathy and metaphoric abstraction, I believe this is only possible because we already have evolved the structures necessary to carry out these functions. V.S. Ramachandran has published some good stuff on human qualities and their respective neural structures. I'd recommend reading his work to anybody.

      Charlie was a selfish unreliable person, he wouldn't have given 2 shits about Raymond. The only reason he took him, was for money, money he would have at least gotten half of, if he had at least shown some love, and respect for his father. Typical spoiled rich kid frat boy, who never grew out of his childish ways. His tantrums and shit he says and does paints a good picture of the kind of person he is. He did change for the better, and he got the kind of karma he needed, because he went through hell putting up with raymond. He met someone who was more stubborn and as mule headed as him, but sadly raymond couldn't help it.

      NASA didnt spend that money either, it was out of pocket from the man who designed it, and then he sold it back to NASA for $2.95.
      NASA utilized the space pen because it was safer, and if you look into Russian space archives, you'll see that Russia started using NASAs space pen not long after, because it was safer.

      This movie came out in 1988. In a small town like that - they are about 35-40 years behind in medical knowledge. Autism nationwide was not really known or documented much at all until at least 1997. After that it took another decade before it got serious case studies. I was born in 1992. When I was growing up nobody knew what autism was at all. It was just called being "shy" or "strange". There was random newspaper studies done through the 90s that talked about this new strange medical problem - but most of it was just inferred knowledge and disconnected observations with no concrete case studies.

    Unreal in 1988 people really werent familiar w/ autism & being a teacher for kids w/ autism its very sad the number of kids born w/ autism is 1 in 95. Something had to happen I doubt all these autistic people just were not diagnosed. Scarier it's much more common in males. I had at least 100 students in 10 years in just the county I lived in & about 96 were boys & 4 were girls & these kids were all low functioning. At that time all the parents swore their children were fine until the mmr shot. I know that theory was shot down but I saw video evidence of a toddler the parents had hes talking is totally a typical child & then after a vaccine the parents said he had a high fever & bam his language was gone. When I saw the video of their son I had to do my best to not cry. What kind of disorder makes children just regress out of nowhere. The mercury in the shots were a big problem. One parent had her son tested & they absolutely found pools of mercury in his brain. 100× the safest amt bc we get mercury from fish but just logically think of this ur not allowed to give an infant tylenol liquid but their little 15 lbs bodies get 4 to 5 vaccines full of garbage plus whatever the vaccine is for & people wonder ? U think a 15 lb. Baby can metabolize all that junk out of their systems but tylenol is not ok ??? I'm not even talking autism just it doesnt sound rational. I mean I was born in the early 80s & got 15 vaccines by 2. My son born in the 2010s was supposed to get 36 by 2. I spaced them all out as the lesser of two evils. Of course I did not want my kid to get polio measles etc plus schools wont allow ur child to come in. That's how they " force " u. I have cousins who are anti vax & they home school . They believe in " hiding in the herd " which of course is hope every other kid is vaccinated so they wont get anything. The problem is in some areas their were Measle outbreaks so too many people were hiding in the herd. Covid u bet will be added to a babys vaccine list. I waited awhile for help a & b which are sexually transmitted & I did not get why my 2 day old baby had to get that & the dr explained they wsnt to eradicate all diseases off the earth so that's why Im waiting til my kid is a teen & since everyone of my generation got chicken pax I waited on that too. People had chicken pax slumber parties to get the inevitable over with. I guess no hiv vax bc theirs too much $$ in the medicine which most people on the cocktail have an undetectable viral load. I think they are cured but stay on it bc they are told it will come back. So much dirty underhanded crap from big pharma

      @frisianmouve 2 года назад +2

      First, only severe autists were diagnosed in the past, now people with milder symptoms are diagnosed.
      Second, if your theory hinges on Mercury, Mercury exposure used to be way higher in the past. Even Neolithic artists might've had Mercury poisoning and why we don't use it in make-up anymore.
      Third, Thiomersal contains Mercury, but has much different properties than if you just use Mercury. Molecules in general can have way different properties depending on their configuration. Probably the simplest example is that if you take away or add a hydrogen from water you end up with a dangerously strong base or acid.
      Fourth, vaccines have ended many diseases like polio, they're literal life savers.
      Fifth, your comment is almost unreadable the way it is, for texts longer than a few sentences it's good practice to start each sentence on a new line, if it's even longer use paragraphs.

      2. The issue they brought up with thermersol is pretty much a moot point now anyway as virtually no vaccines are made with it these days (from what I understand, only some flu vaccines are, and even then there are thermersol free versions available for those who are concerned).
