Need help combating organizations that damage the autistic community

I need help understanding why organizations such as yours are so oblivious to the unique talents and stregnths that people on the autistic spectrum share, to the extend of preaching genocide vs understanding. Why would any autistic support an organization that does nothing but talk about how horrible our lives are (mine isn't, but I guess you aren't interested in MY voice), to the extent of denying my existence? I'm sorry that you feel it is appropriate to disown your kids, and choose spokespeople that talk about driving their kids off the GWB.

Dan CSA "Interview with (As) Stephen"

Should watch the video up above from the " Autism guy ", Turn some heads around on they views of attacking the people in the autism community, on the way they approach they kids, " Autism groups out there ", seems like the inner circle is as bad as the outer circle....

"biomedical research" That's curebiespeak for a patentable test or drug that can be sold to the highest bidding pharmaceutical company who will in turn make billions off it. Ugh.

Is there no cure for Curebieism????

If you watch the hole video you will be able to see all the answers about Autism and if your not still in denial you will see its an "Autism Guy saying it".... biomedical is about checking what chemicals are higher or lower in the person, i.e:- (mercury) is one of them biomedical aspects, if you watch the hole film if you really care about your autism you will be bothered to watch the hole of it...

Is mercury still used in the USA? As I looked it up and most countries like Russia, Denmark, Austria, Japan, Great Britain and all the Scandinavian countries, amongst others, have banned thiomersal.
