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 wants to say vaccines cause it and he would love to ban vaccines, but that would cause so much backlash so they had to scale back to some bullshit excuse based on in-progress science. This is why there was still some vaccine pushback in the meeting (splitting them up, because its to much liquid at once for a little baby)

I think the goal of this is to be able to go after public health officials that speak up, claiming they are spreading medical misinformation, especially if they can nab some of the ones they have a hate boner for like Fauci
