My theory on why AutSpeaks shows only LFA

Post Reply New Topic

I know that medication can be very beneficial in many situations, but is it just a steady supply of "fish" in some instances? Throwing pills at everyone seems to be the go to solution for doctors anymore, when other solutions might be available. I want help learning to fish, not be a well fed pet.

Consensus/fact

Prevention and cure of autism = bombard the vulnerable with forced therapy, abort the kids in the womb, ignore those who resist

imo i think those folks just pocket the money and use just the LFA to give the majority of NTs more reason to steriotype us and pity us. That is what it looks like but i could be wrong, whenever i see an autism speaks ad i get rather annoyed by it.

They don't just pocket the money. They spend it on scientific research. You can't completely eliminate pity with the problems had by the LFA. They portray the LFA cause they're the ones with substantial problems. The charity is not there to nurture your self-love.

And if you look at a detailed history of fascism there wasn't a board meeting of nazi's where they sat down and decided that either. In attempting to build a utopia by any means it came about organically.

The ends don't justify the means and eradicating people for being a bit different is never justified.






NB: Except if they have ginger hair of course. Gingers are mingers and deserve death.

I suppose you've never heard of Wannsee. It's a nice, pleasant suburb of Berlin where top Nazi officials met on January 20, 1942 for that specific purpose (to hammer out the logistics of "the final solution"). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wannsee_Conference

In any case, I challenge you to find any shred of evidence that Autism Speaks is pursuing anything that remotely resembles "eugenics" as a matter of current policy. Right now, today. Not 5 years ago. Today.

Beating up a large, wealthy, influential organization with immense resources over an agenda it appears to have briefly pursued years ago (and abandoned quickly) is just plain silly. Its founders might have been misguided a decade ago, but they appear to have learned from their mistakes, and grown into a responsible organization.

IIRC, some of the pieces I've seen by them didn't just show LFA children. Rather, just children with autism.

Of course they'll show difficulties to garner support (but then, who with an ASD doesn't have severe difficulties? None).

They could easily show the severe behaviors that can manifest in AS, which are just as bad as any severe depiction of LFA (they're just different), if they wanted.

My biggest grip with only showing the worst case scenario is tomorrow whenIi go to my teacher and say I need more time on my assignment because blar blar melt down they will refuse to believe me because I’m not like those worst case scenario.
