The 'RFK Jr Saying Autistic People Will Never Play Baseball' meme stems from a controversial statement made by Robert F. Kennedy Jr. during his 2024 presidential campaign discussions regarding public health and neurodivergence. In the clip, Kennedy suggests that rising rates of autism mean fewer children will be able to engage in traditional American pastimes like baseball. The internet quickly turned this into a meme, with many neurodivergent individuals and athletes posting videos of themselves playing sports or succeeding in various fields to mock the absurdity of the claim. It is used both as a political critique and a defiant celebration of neurodiversity in the face of outdated stereotypes.
