The teen mental illness epidemic is international

Did we evolve with the polarized pulsed microwave radiation from man-made devices? Or Did we evolve with the non-polarized radiation from the sun?

You cannot compare that. The proof of this is that the FCC has safety regulations against how close you are to the sources. But these were devised with two and 3G technologies. Also, most of the studies are not real world studies, and so they lack many of the key characteristics of our exposure.

And make no mistake, I think a lot of people could be positively affected by this type of electromagnetic radiation, unfortunately, I don’t think I’m one of those, however. It’s really mostly about genetics.

FCC having safety regulations isn't actually proof of a problem, it's proof that there's concern there might be a problem.

If there might be a problem, then we should investigate it, correct? But instead, we’re just rolling it out more and more and faster faster. Whatever happened to the precautionary principal and health?

Sure, it's worth investigating, I support that. But I do not support making a claim like "I do think it plays one of the largest roles in the increase of neurological disorders since the 2000s. Including autism." when there's little evidence and no obvious mechanism.
