It really sucks that what it takes to get people to talk about #Autism is a global misinformation campaign that threatens to undermine pandemic response efforts

We see you ignoring us until it's your own life potentially at risk
#ActuallyAutistic #Covid19
Other issues that you don't know about from Autistic discourse

Access to Alternate Communication(AAC)
Applied Behavioral Analysis(ABA)
Seclusion and Restraint

Jason Kenney once again proving his position of being tough on lives, as long as we get to wear a cowboy hat and watch live animal abuse all the extra death/illness is worth it!
/anger /sarcasm
#ABPoli #Covid19 #OpenForSummer #Stampede
Usually you have to get into animal agriculture to see abuse of animals live but Albertans make it part of our culture to bring our children along to enjoy it with us at the Calgary Stampede!
Y'all think kink at pride is a problem for kids?

Anyone wanna talk about seeing artificial impregnation, bleeding and scared animals, animals struggling with injuries from the show only to be assured they are gonna be "put out of their misery"

"As many persons with disabilities said during the visit, they are being offered the choice between a nursing home and medical assistance in dying."
- Report of the Special Rapporteur on the rights of persons with disabilities Dec 19 2019
undocs.org/en/A/HRC/43/41…
#CdnPoli #WhyUs
Before #BillC7 amendments were tabled this Report was published demanding a review of the 2016 C14 Medical Assistance in Dying Legislation

Review of the Legislation was outstanding and instead of properly reviewing they put forwards C7 with unprecedented radical policy changes
Among the most radical of these changes is the removal of the requirement that death be reasonably forseeable to access state-assisted suicide

This takes the legislation away from true euthanasia by definition and creates a two-tiered suicide response by the government

I grew up desexualized for my Autistic behavior; feeling people infantilize when I was most authentic

I am trying to develop my sexuality and gender expression after repressing it for over a decade

I internalized that prejudice and it's very difficult to fight it
I want to experience romance and sexuality with others in my life in a consensual manner before I go

I want to fail at relationships not because of Autism but because we aren't compatible; Autism makes it difficult to get anyone to interpret me that way most importantly myself
It was easier to accept the prejudice of others than to challenge it for me

People would laugh at the thought of my being a romantic partner; sometimes even joke about it when I tried to flirt

Autism Parents: Only speak to your experience of #Autism

Also Autism Parents: We need full control over Autism funding because Autistic people are getting too politically empowered and speaking out against services WE like
Reminder, Canada has a group of lobbyists and parent advocates that work to advocate for ABA against the stated interests of Autistic self-advocacy groups in the country

Actions against this group have been framed by "progressive" politicians as an "attack on autism services
Remember that when you see an "attack on autism services" referenced by politicians in Canada they are talking about Autism Conversion therapy ABA

It's working to advocate against these lobbyists, people are starting to listen

If someone asks you to listen to a minority group don't respond with requests for accounts to follow

If you put in the work yourself to find who in that space fits your values and then follow/boost you will understand the discourse and issues to the point you can help inform
If you don't do this work and expect following a couple people to passively educate you on the issues of minorities you will be lead astray by the trends that erased that population from your perception in the first place
There's a high possibility the people you will be suggested will have the views of the person you asked

This means you could learn to focus on only specific issues, get a filtered and whitewashed version of the theories, or learn from a radical one-sided perspective
