Happy #AutismAcceptanceDay and #AutismAcceptanceMonth https://abs.twimg.com/hashflags... draggable="false" alt=""> everyone!!! Autism may make us use our minds differently but that really makes unique and special and stand out-I& #39;m proud to be an autistic being
Now just to make some very important points here...
-I don& #39;t support Autism Speaks anymore. And neither should you.
They& #39;re a hate group pivoting on the CURE for autism, treating it like it& #39;s a disease, they advocate to euthanize autistic people (!!!!) and they silence people who speak up to them (hypocrites) #AutismAcceptance https://abs.twimg.com/hashflags... draggable="false" alt="">
-Do NOT use the puzzle piece to represent us. A puzzle piece implies that a part of us is missing when in reality our autism IS our puzzle piece and if that gets removed we& #39;re not who we are
#AutismAceeptance
-Don& #39;t use blue to represent us. It sucks cause blue is my favorite color and I think it& #39;s a nice color for us too but considering Autism Speaks has pioneered that...yeaaaah
Sorry not gonna "light it up blue" for something that shows hate. Wear red instead! #AutismAcceptance https://abs.twimg.com/hashflags... draggable="false" alt="">
-Hans Asperger was a Nazi. Don& #39;t look up to him. Nuff said #AutismAcceptance https://abs.twimg.com/hashflags... draggable="false" alt="">
-This is only something new I found out but "awareness" isn& #39;t cool to use for us anymore. Makes it sound like a disease when it really isn& #39;t
Acceptance sits right because we& #39;re being accepted into a normal society #AutismAcceptance https://abs.twimg.com/hashflags... draggable="false" alt="">
-Do not use high-functioning or low-functioning terms because it makes some autistic people feel they have less of a voice, while others feel their challenges aren& #39;t taken as seriously cause they are seen as "normal"

Anyways go read @LeaC_Official& #39;s thread for more about this, I was inspired by her to make this thread. She says some of the same things I say here and some other stuff and provides points just as phenomenal #AutismAcceptance https://abs.twimg.com/hashflags... draggable="false" alt=""> https://twitter.com/leac_official/status/1245580569280262145?s=21">https://twitter.com/leac_offi...
