It’s #WorldAutismAwarenessDay https://abs.twimg.com/hashflags... draggable="false" alt=""> and many are innocently trying to support autistic people by doing things we find offensive.

Why?

Because for too long non autistic ppl have dominated the discourse.

Please don’t #LightItUpBlue, support autism speaks, use PFL or puzzle pieces.
The greatest gift you can give an autistic person today is acceptance of who they are.

Let’s move from #WorldAutismAwarenessDay https://abs.twimg.com/hashflags... draggable="false" alt=""> to #AutismAcceptance https://abs.twimg.com/hashflags... draggable="false" alt="">
