Please hear me out!
(1)
I know I am not the first one who talks about this. But this is important to me. I am not over this.

#SiaMusic I know, I know. You've heard it. It's bad blablabla.
If it was just a bad movie and the whole stereotype thing once again is renewed in peoples

(2)
minds that would be annoying yes, but I wouldn't be scared. Jet I am.
If one of my once favourite singers would have made a film that is horribly researched and insulting to autistics I would have been hurt and that's about it. I would wish no one would see it - who can blame

(3) me, honestly. I have to face a tone of stereotypes without someone bringing a whole "Autism Stereotypes, renewed" movie onto streaming platforms. But it's the scenes of restraint that make me feel scared. It's the fact that a person that the movie tells us knows what he's

(4) doing, treats an autist so horribly wrong he could die. A way noone wants to be treated and I am sure everyone would be traumatised. And jet the film makes it seem like "hey be a good person and throw yourself onto someone who is in distress" is a good idea.

(5) and I am scared, because I imagine somewhere out there there sits a policeman watching this movie with his girlfriend who is such a big Sia fan. And I know a little bit about the human mind. He will look at these scenes. And then a few years later he's called to a

(6) scene with an autistic boy having a meltdown and without exactly remembering where he got that from he gets this though: "oh, a few years ago I was told to do this in such situations" and he throws himself onto that boy.
I don't say that's exactly what will happen

(7) but the chance has been risen that a scene like this could happen.
And that makes me scared, angry and so so disappointed.
And you know as bad as that is, if Sia would have come forward and apologized. If she would have clarified that that is wrong and if she would have

(8) taken the scenes out, maybe adding a disclamer at the end. Then I would have forgiven her. I would have never looked at her the same, but I would have let go.
But not taking them out. Acting like we, the autistic community to whom she said the movie would be a love letter

(9) are overreacting and insulting us and ignoring our fears. That's what so deeply hurts me. That's why I want you guys out there to know, that I am done with Sia.
I am not calling for cancell culture, as it is called nowadays. Listen to her music it you like it, but please do

(10) not treat us like that. Please listen to our stories. Please do not believe I am more of a wig than a person.
That's all I'm asking of you.

And now to spread what I want you to know:
