But we already have rights?
The condition of the people with Spectrum is like the condition of African Americans after the civil war. Sure we have "rights" but that's not enough. When you have a society of hypocrite bigots who will judge you for being autistic then "rights" are useless. The entire mindset of NT on people with Autism Spectrum or non NT must change.
Get a grip. On a history book. No one is lynching aspies. There are no special laws enforced against us.
I find your comparison disgusting.
There is individual acts of violence against autistics and filicide against us too often excused. But unlike after civil war against blacks, there is no organized violence supported by governments.
The First KKKQuote:
The Klan primarily performed heinous crimes against African Americans, especially those running for office in the South. In addition, many white Republicans and sympathizers were also targets of Klan violence. It is estimated that the KKK performed over 3500 racially-motivated lynchings in the South between 1865 and 1900. Furthermore, white Republicans who sympathized with African Americans, decried as “carpetbaggers” and “scalawags,” were frequently attacked.
Democrats relied on the Klan to secure election victories, as Klansmen oftentimes threatened or killed competing Republican candidates. Many southern Republicans actually abandoned their campaigns due to the inability to hold meetings and attract voters while living in constant fear.
