The ADHD sofa? You sit on it by ... Uhhh ...

Perioidic reminder that the reason you didn't see autistic people with intellectual disabilities on the street five decades ago was not because they didn't exist. It's because they were sent away to institutions and their parents were told to put away pictures of them.

Excuse me what?

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. must be removed from office.

FACT: This poster isn't worth being toilet paper.

We have a whole new level of ableism that's going around on TikTok. An AI filter that gives a Neurotypical person Down Syndrome facial features. Which is also being used to promote OF accounts. www.latintimes.com/fake-down-sy...

Autism parents trying to rewrite the origins of the Neurodiversity movement with horrifying AI images now. The Neurotypicals are NOT okay.

TW: SA This was shared on our sub this morning. At the TEC Milenio school in Mexico, a 16 year boy with ADHD was allegedly 🍇'd by 5 boys in a bathroom. The school suspended THE VICTIM and tried to gaslight him into thinking he made the story up. All while nothing was done to the attackers.

Such a troubling view from someone who's a US Senator and Physician.

POV: This was in response to a political cartoon that referred to RFK Jr. as a vector of disease.

It should go without saying, but Trump's claims that Autism in Children was "1 in 10,000, 20 years ago" is straight up wrong. CDC data from 2005 has Autism as 1 in 125 in Children.

Just discovered something really disturbing. During his First Confirmation Hearing, RFK Jr. made a subtle and disturbing remark comparing autistic boys to Nazi Death Camps Right underneath everyone's noses. #StopRFK

We're considering this too. Expect a follow up soon. www.reddit.com/r/aretheNTso...

If the whole world was autistic. This would be considered dystopian.

This woman once predicted that "Autism will be 1 in 2 by 2025" Hey that starts tomorrow. You know what that means? #ActuallyAutistic

Cannot stress how incredibly dehumanizing headlines like these are.

Anti-vax logic: Vaccines cause something that doesn't exist. What?

Rob Schneider (a.k.a. a stapler) really needs to be sat down and taught about The Lost Generation of Autism. Whether or not he'd listen to it is a whole other story. www.reddit.com/r/aretheNTso...

"The rise of autism is really the rise of isolated alienated people" Thanks random person who might be high right now.

What the hell is 'feral autism?' Wrong answers only.

Huge news for the #Neurodiversity movement. Autism Speaks Canada is shutting down operations in January. LET'S GOOOOOOO!!!!!!

"Ableism? I don't know what that word means, therefore you are a crybaby ... somehow." ... kay.

"Autism is a life-ending crisis" BRO ... dramatic much?

So this "advice columnist" has some suggestions for people who 'can't take jokes'. These suggestions seem like they came directly from trolls in YouTube's comment section. There's 13 pictures in total here. Buckle up.

Earlier today; Trump announced on NBC that he will ask RFK Jr. to look into a potential link between Vaccines and Autism. Are we really playing this song and dance all over again?

This aide went to an ABA centric board seeking advice on what to do with an autistic student who keeps having meltdowns. Because the teacher kept denying his accommodations and needs. Instead of holding the abuser accountable, they want to condition the victim. ... wow!

This guy really thinks that autism only started to exist when it was first discovered in 1943. Do I dare ask about gravity?

JackSepticeye unveiling his autism diagnosis to the world took a lot of guys. Yet there are still some narrow minded content creators who still think it's cool to use the r-slur.
