Fuck the ADL for saying “free Palestine” is antisemetic but whimp out over an intentional Nazi salute by one of the most powerful men in the US on national TV.

You know we're screwed when a TikTok ban is one of the most bipartisan efforts in the modern political era.

Who hasn’t been innocently hanging out at the inauguration of a man dubbed by people in his own party as the next Hitler and accidentally performed a Nazi salute that could only be more blatant if it was accompanied by a tiny finger moustache?

Remember that time I said that Elon Musk is the living proof that autistic sense of justice is BS? Well I think that point just got MUCH clearer.

Yep, with the exception of a tic disorder, there is no excuse, and that is not what is going on here.
Let's be very clear. #Autism and #Neurodivergence don't lead to a Nazi Salute. But a person who has championed #WhiteNationalism might choose that salute. #Disabled ppl were among the first killed by the Nazis. They were the subjects of experiments. There can be no love of Nazis for our community.
These fuckers really confusing Asperger’s and Auschwitz today, huh?

Those of you saying "you just need to bite your tongue for the next 4 years" don't realize the amount of privilege you have. What about the women who will die without access to medical care? What about the immigrants? What about the Palestinians? The disabled? Black and brown people? Queer people?

I know everyone talks about the racist and sexist aliens in Star Trek, but we need to talk about the Pakleds, a fatphobic ableist caricature of people with Down Syndrome and intellectual disabilities.

"And the rocket's red glare, the bomb bursting in air, Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there, O say does that star-spangled banner yet wave, O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?"

Sounds a lot like US supporting 🍉 genocide with Israeli pawns.

Check out my post on the Broader Autistic Phenotype and why statements like "you cannot be a little autistic" are oversimplistic.

What’s ableist is to revise the narrative of autism around your own experience to what you deem a more palatable version of disability. I know you guys want to fix ableism, but this is largely scapegoating. 3/3

Helping your child communicate when your child has a communication-related disability isn't ableist. Yes, there are horrible mothers of autistics out there, but much of the hate directed towards autism moms comes from LSN autistics who do not understand the reality of being an M/HSN autistic. 2/3

Actually, advocating for your child’s needs isn’t ableist. - I see a lot of LSN verbal autistics criticize “autism moms” for advocating on behalf of their minimally verbal or non verbal autistic children as being ableist and “speaking over their children.” 1/3

If you are an LSN autistic, you are disabled enough.

You have every right to be angry for how society treats you. What you cannot do is take it out on MSN and HSN autistics because of your insecurity.

Trump getting inaugurated on the same day as MLK day feels like a hate crime.

One of my big sensory icks is getting water on my face around my mouth. I have a hard time drinking water without it spilling all over my face and straws are also hard for me, so I need to run to wipe off my face any time I drink water or I WILL scream.
