~Autism,The Pressures of Masking&the Complexities of Unmasking.~
~Thought I’d break it down more clearly of why some #Autistic people mask&highlight those who don’t mask,who tend to be mid to high support needs Autistic ppl,who are less able to mask etc. Also I don’t speak for all Autistics~

This is getting super fucking creepy, RFKjr saying an offhand slur about autistic people is one thing (because he is slime and slime does slimy things) but they're starting to talk policy, and testing. This feels like open eugenics.

When the dangerous bigoted Eugenicist, RFK Jr. erroneously claims that older ppl not receiving DXs of ASD means an “epidemic” for the youth
… one of the many known explanations for this is Survivor Bias
Due to the stress of an ableist world … we tend to die much younger than our peers

Survivor Bias
Survivor Bias and it’s *related* biases are when the data is skewed based on what is *observed* by those collecting and reporting data … leaving the unobserved unaccounted for … this form of bias constantly plagues the *Autism* Community.

Happy Autism Acceptance Day
#AutismAcceptanceMonth starts tomorrow. Please don't give to Autism Speaks; their $$ rarely supports autistic people/families, and their 'awareness' work portrays autistic people as burdens, not humans. From @autisticadvocacy.org, a good org to support instead.

Before You Donate to Autism Speaks, Consider the Facts
Very little money donated to Autism Speaks goes toward helping autistic people and families.

Because we don’t talk enough about autistic strengths
There are so many autistic traits that make the world a better place
❌ harmful deficit-based narrative
✅ strengths, joys and what support autistic people need to live good lives

Being under the cresent moon beneath the Cherry Blossoms at night felt like being in a wonderful dream.
But even dreams as beautiful as they are, have to come to an end.🌸Spending my whole life looking for love & happiness & ending up looking in the wrong places & end up getting hurt.💔 #mentalhealth

The process of grief. Of having lost the one you care about & will never be able to see them.So many words left unsaid in my heart. Love, especially if it’s one sided can be very complex. I give a lot of love, but those feelings are never returned.

American Politicians:
“There is a devastating epidemic of Autism!”
Autistic Americans:
“That’s a really fucked up statement, but how about you give us some support if you think that Autism is so horrible?”
American Politicians:
“On no, Autism isn’t disabling enough to give you any help.”

Why am I, in Britain, concerned about what's happening in the US?
It concerns everyone on the planet.
And, it concerns me because yesterday's speech from the US leader said, "...Not long ago ... 1 in 10,000 children had autism. Now it's 1 in 36. There's something wrong"
I just ...what?/
