Autistic people only have their own experience of being autistic so they shouldn't speak for all autistic people. Leave that to the experts who have no experience of being autistic whatsoever.
@Cal__Montgomery Honestly I think some NT’s assume we can’t communicate with each other. Like, they assume the autism gets in the way of All social connection, or something. Mention we have #AutisticCulture and they explode in disbelief & denial. It’s wild.
@Cal__Montgomery @ddmfhsuk Or worse, the Moms of Autistic children who act like they're Superwoman just for being a parent. So many of them on Instagram selling t-shirts and looking for that external validation.
@Cal__Montgomery @neurowonderful Especially experts that have no credentials.
@Cal__Montgomery @EVBritton And they say we don’t “get” sarcasm
@Cal__Montgomery Autism parents voices are also important, who doesn’t love Autism Speaks mother talking about how she loves eugenics and sterilization? Clearly she knows more about autism than us autistics who actually experience sensory issues, samefoods, social anxiety and more.
@Cal__Montgomery I’m curious... what does having or not having autism do with experts who have masters and doctorates degrees, and board licenses who have studied autism and ABA for years??
@Cal__Montgomery Haha lol omg I thought I was gonna have to leave the page over this post
