[tristan_geoff]

also I'm not ranting at anyone here (I hope) I'm ranting at the trump administration and their progressively thinly veiled 1488 bullshit

[Mindy]

I think the autism topic is just a large lack of education and knowledge about it, and the pattern, lol, seems to be with people who lack knowledge on most topics.




bottom line, the increase in autism numbers over the past decades isn't rocket science

it is the same with any other diagnostics, way better detection now has created the ability to find it earlier

the DSM 6, when that releases will be interesting to see if the criteria has changed

Not sure what you're going for here but it isn't a good look.

Aspergers and the ranking of intelligence levels is straight out of the nazi playbook with eugenics, I've spent my whole life being told I'm slow and stupid and all this shit because of my neurotype.  I'm enough, every autistic person is enough, what we think and feel is valuable and our personal experience.  There is no cure for autism as much as there's a cure for being human, and good.  I love being autistic, plenty of people do and would moreso if we didn't live in an oppressive world built for people that are able to desensitize and compartmentalize reality into symbolism as a means to an end.

Tolerating people who think that people are less worthy by means of some difference in intelligence is where racism, sexism, ableism stem from, and tolerating people like this is no better than being one yourself.

I will tell a nazi to their goddamn face to kill themselves and I am not ashamed of it.  If they aren't gonna not be a nazi they better at least give the people trying to escape suffering the oxygen they're wasting.

I'm tired of having to try so hard and prove myself to people, yes I was upset when I wrote that, no I don't take it back.  Nazis should commit suicide end of story.  I'm allowed to say that too, no backsies.  Try to police my tone when I'm upset about something you know nothing about too while your at it?

lol

[tristan_geoff]

lol

I'm tired of callous people dismissing autistic people's emotions.  If you don't care say that.

[tristan_geoff]

Fuck retards right?

No I just think those posts don't do you any favours.

I agree with Tristan that Nazis all need to follow their leader. If that does me no favors in your mind, I dunno what to say I guess.

Not sure why you think an autistic person venting about the treatment of her people and the links that treatment has to eugenicist policies (Hans Asperger, who codified the diagnosis, was a Nazi after all) "isn't a good look". I don't see how Tristan's anger isn't perfectly understandable when it's being directed at fucking Nazis.

Don't try and word it like my issue is with autism.

And RFK Jr isn't a Nazi. You throw that word around like confetti.

I didn't say I thought your issue was with autism and i don't know how you got that from my post.

I also never said RFK was a nazi.
