All you need to do is read the ABA apologists in the comments section of an anti aba blog

Common responses
My ABA is not the abusive kind

If you were abused I am sorry that happened to you it was because you had a quack, not real ABA

All my kids love me

You have no empathy for the parents because of your autism.

I noticed they often talk about stopping "tantrumming".
