If you read a passage like the one I quoted and it's a revelation to you, you should NOT pat yourself on the back for feeling aware and tolerant. You should feel ashamed for having spent your whole life until that moment making autistic people's lives shitty. And you should resolve to learn compassion for all sentient beings and meditate to make the world suffer less.

I appreciate the guy for his honesty that I could quote him to make a point. I think the reporter already decided it was a feel-good story, so they didn't probe into darker aspects of Autism Parents.

The fact that normal people can watch CHILD ABUSE and not understand that it's child abuse is much worse than me being blunt about describing the reality of why autism sucks, which is normal people.

I don't think normal people should feel good about autism right now. Why don't we just get rid of vaccination to prevent people like me from being born? That's pretty normal. It's not like eugenics is a new idea. Everybody knows Asperger cherry-picked the patients he reported and described them that way so the Nazis wouldn't kill them, right? (See Neurotribes)

They sterilized 2 of my great aunts for epilepsy. Both later committed suicide. Normal people did that, and it's normal to think that way now.

Something nobody ever thinks about: if this guy didn't understand his son was sentient for a long stretch of time before reading an autism autobiography, do you think maybe that contributed to his son's problems with mentalization and emotion regulation? Do you think that's a little bit invalidating, which when it happens chronically gives people borderline personality disorder, which makes people injure themselves? I REALLY question what's autism and what's the effect of normal people having autistic children.

Anyone can read online about why autistic adults think the standard treatment, ABA, is abusive. That's the not-feel-good part of "neurodiversity."

After years of "treatment" and talking about their kids in front of them like they're not there, parents then turn around and blame AUTISM and direct funds to prevention instead of doing anything to improve my life and the lives of people worse off than me. In fact, they're extremely hostile and dismissive of autistic adults, which is the world they're creating for their children. Other people have said this before me, for years.

Even more unpleasant truth: bullying and dehumanization are necessary features of capitalism, and it's white men's fault more than anyone else's.

Feel bad about autism today. Thanks.

The cost of having to go through life with people believing all of that shit is indescribable. Like, this stuff makes people die alone for real. This stuff makes people unemployable and untouchable.

And it's a lot to do with the fact that "normal" people in our society have to be emotionally avoidant or they couldn't deal with how fucked up they're making everything on purpose. This is why emotional retardation is the definition of masculinity here. How can you dominate your slaves and have feelings at the same time?

In olden times, autistic people were probably the clergy everyone else turned to for moral guidance because we can actually think consistently without making every last thing about ego. It's not autistic people denying climate change over not knowing how to be a person if business ever did something bad.

I wish autism awareness would go the fuck away so I can explain myself to people instead of explaining why the authority on who I am is completely full of shit and needs their own therapy more than I do.

True fact: I'm an autistic psychologist and I encounter people with godawful theory of mind all the time, every day. Probably half the mentalization problems in autism come from the trauma of what the normal people do to us, but it doesn't occur to anybody that autistic people have feelings to be traumatized about.

Do people realize that the overwhelming majority of information on autism is highly pejorative, even stuff by autism experts claiming to be our friends?

Asperger's isn't a real problem. It only looks that way because the normal people have decided to base nearly all social interactions on avoidance and dishonesty because they're lacking in emotional resilience because they're raised by TV, which makes them feel bad on purpose. Our culture is based on being a sleazy businessperson and making a religion out of that.

Autistic people watched the "good people" stand there and do nothing while they got bullied. We're not naive.

This is a society where being a wife beater is actually less of an obstacle to finding relationships than having an autism diagnosis.

The normal people want it to be middle school forever because they liked it there, at our expense.

Try to spend a week and make note of how many things you see shit-talking either black people or autistic people. Now imagine all of those things are directed at you and that's what daily life is.

Fuck you, too, normal people.
