Please block the account quote tweeted. What they’ve said is an outright lie.

They’re trying to accuse me of being a scammer and trying to get my local social services to section me into hospital. Bare in mind that many Autistic people who get sectioned into hospital end up DYING. I am not unwell enough to go into hospital and nor do I have paranoia. If I… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

Don’t interact with this person. Just block them. As they’ll go after you too. And they seem to enjoy the attention and are currently projecting their own mental health struggles onto others. They’re trying to get other autistic people sectioned into mental health hospital but… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

How can I be more aware?
Most people know Autism exists, but only in extremes. Autism is a brain difference that can range from clear to subtle. Autism is characterized by patterns of differences in the areas of Social Communication, Interests, Routines, and Sensory Processing.
Take Action & Advocate:

ABA is harmful and doesn’t actually help according to multiple research studies. The methods are harmful. The same man who created GAY CONVERSION therapy also used the same techniques to create ABA. Ivar lovaas. The link between Gay Conversion therapy and ABA therapy… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
An advocate’s response to the common claim that this or that ABA program is somehow “different” or not like those bad ones we are talking about in the research studies mentioned above

🙃 more children are being diagnosed because there is better awareness and understanding of Autism. Especially autism in girls. And Autism Speaks is a hate group barely any of their funding actually helps autistic people. We’re talking 1% of the funding. It’s disgusting. #autism… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Autism Speaks is extremely harmful and doesn't actually put a lot of money towards research/ support for living with autism. Have you looked up any of their controversial ads? They act like autism is a crippling, deadly disease that needs to be cured, and … twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Not only that, but the founders daughter of Autism Speaks Katie Wright who was part of the board members had a huge part to play in the anti-vaccination movement... she believes that her child is ‘vaccine-injured’ and that is what caused her child to ‘develop autism’... (which… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

There’s rumours being spread by the Anti-Neurodiversity bullies online trying to silence Autistic people and our voices by trying to convince people that everyone who uses the ActuallyAutistic tag is self-diagnosed, faking being autistic or “fauxtistic” as ko-fi.com/post/Self-diag…… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

And just because you like “x,y and z”and you’re autistic or a parent of an autistic person... it doesn’t make the following not true. Please don’t… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
As Autism Acceptance/ awareness month/week/ day (depending what country you’re in) is approaching. Here’s a post about why the puzzle piece symbol is considered a hate symbol by so many Autistic people. And why the infinity symbol is more accepted and widely used now. #autism… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
It’s time to listen to the Autistic community (Autistic people NOT Neurotypical people) and start respecting their voices and wishes for the puzzle piece to be thrown out... and yes I will be using identity first language in this post as it’s the preferred language and saying… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Also it sounds like it’s an illness or disease by saying “has” or “with” and that’s not what Autism is and it makes it sound like it’s something that can be cured like an illness… when it can’t. Our brains ARE Autistic, we view the world and life with our Autistic brain… it’s a… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
