Shane Gillis believes that autism is an adaptive evolutionary trait that is becoming more prevalent because the planet requires autists for survival.

“I really I think autism is an Adaptive thing the planet's like changing Humanity to be like all right you guys are going to you guys are going to kill it like everything we're all the planet's like producing autists right now so only autist will be able to live harmoniously”

Matt McCusker hypothesizes that the rise in autism is a result of a government conspiracy to develop individuals capable of competing in a cyber war with China.

“it's we're doing America the government knows all those vaccines in chicken nuggets all those vaccines and chicken nuggets again they're like we're going to have to keep up with China in a cyber War yeah we're going to need a 20 million autistic men”
