It’s exhausting at best and devastating at worst to see a poll, and the discussions prompted, about wether or not autistic people should be born.

It’s bad enough that we’re all facing a global pandemic, can people please just stop with the awful?
We’ve already see autistic people being asked to sign DNRs during this whole mess.

Anyone who says any of this isn’t eugenics can get in the sea.

Autistic people, just like everyone else, have a right to live.
It doesn’t matter if you think that because someone has high support needs, that they are ‘low functioning’ and therefore have an awful life and are a burden because that’s bullshit. That’s your ableism talking and you need to shhhhhhh.
Everyone deserves to live.
Yes even autistic people.
Yes even people with high support needs.

Can’t believe I’m having to say this in 2020 but here we are.
