E.g., those "gold standard," "evidence-based" claims? When examined, ABA research is riddled by conflicts of interest. And per Dr. @kbottemabeutel.bsky.social, "we shouldn’t have a separate set of lower standards that we only apply to autism research."

Did you know that creator of ABA, Ivar Lovaas is also the sponsor of conversion therapy for “gender disforia,” propelled by the “Feminine Boy Project” started at his lab at UCLA? You should include that in your report.

If you really want feedback: You should report on the toxic and damaging effects of ABA therapy and the efforts worldwide to ban it as it is conversion therapy. Your report is incomplete without talking about ABA.

Please don’t use the puzzle piece to represent autism. That is a symbol used by Autism Speaks to denote there’s something broken or missing from autistic people. Let’s stop normalizing ableist symbols.

Thank you for sharing this! It’s so important to the autistic community worldwide.

So happy to see that I was already following you ♾️

There is no place for #ABA within #Autism is traumatic and damaging! 💔 We need to reveal
it for what it is!
