Why is RFK JR so obsessed with autism? (hexbear.net)

Why is this 70 year old guy so obsessed with something he knows nothing about? Why name Tylenol the "cause" of autism when he obviously wants to say its vaccines?

I get that the underlying goal of MAHA is eugenics, but I just don't get why or this angle. I haven't come across much really talking about it. Everything is focused on the fact that its obviously ridiculous that Tylenol (or anything) causes autism, but what is the obession with finding this nonexistent cause?

~~He's DLC for the DSM. But also we're doing that thing where we talk about a person being bad in terms of mental health. There is no evidence that RFK is mentally ill and if he was mentally ill that would not be what makes him a bad person~~ God damnit, why do I keep seeing old posts when I dick around on this site.
