I'm an autistic who, as a young woman got involved in 2 cults which changed my life irrevocably.
As Hannah Barnes points out in "Time To Think", why are so few people questioning that 40% of gender anxious kids have autistic traits, when the incidence of autism in general society is less than 3%?
So well put! As a parent (of an ASD kid) on the receiving end of the autistic pride message, I agree the forced teaming and the empty celebrations create more obstacles than they resolve: not only do they distract our kids from understanding themselves, they also absolve people from really doing the hard part - provide real resources so our kids can, like you say, learn to overcome or at least be able to cope with, their disability. It’s easy to have a parade, but the real challenge is in understanding and supporting their needs and natural abilities, and to provide opportunity and training so they can contribute and fit into society through all life stages. Young autistic people need a bridge from childhood into adult life, and autistic pride seems like the moat below
Disturbing thought: do they want autistic kids in the rainbow becasue they are easier to recruit to the gender cult?
YES
