This, but kind of unironically. The rate among autistic people is as high as 20% in some studies. On average, it probably hovers around 10%. Once the NT’s can stop being so embarrassed about nonconformity they’ll come around
Doesn't matter. Our entire society is just as hostile as you towards child-adult relationships. Even actual parents have had the police called on them because they were with their (adopted) kids that didn't look like they could be related.
Other countries aren't like that. It's really relaxed because those countries didn't have decades of milk carton propaganda scaring the shit out of them about "stranger danger".
Yeah. Fuck Japan, but this just makes me think of that tv show about Japanese kids going around doing little errands like going down to the store, and all the adults around are very nice and willing to help them. In the US people would be terrified to go near a 4 year old with their parents not present, and the cops would probably be called.
There are roughly 80 million children in the country, and you're telling me 1% of them are abducted by strangers per year?
Yeah. Those sound like Q-Anon style numbers from the "underground tunnels full of children" era.

I love that graph. I guess people's first instinct is to assume that every minority makes up for roughly the third of population.
One in five people are trans, lol.

90% of Americans live in California, NYC, or Texas.

If it were 800,000, then 1 in every 5 children would have been abducted at one time.
That figure doesn't pass the common sense test.
That's so sad. Children and adults should be able to be friends.
