P.S. doesn’t just relieve stress, and ABAers aren’t “unwittingly” grooming kids for exploitation. and otherwise scholars, activists, and survivors have been saying violates and nonhuman for decades. As Leonard Cohen said, “Everybody knows.”

Per Paulo Freire, “An act is oppressive only when it prevents people from being more fully human.”

Committing prevents people, particularly groups, from being more fully human.

Conversely, to is to permit people to be more fully human.

“Now that Ireland has concluded that ABA and PBS are human rights violations, the question arises: Why do both major capitalist parties — Democrats and Republicans — and academic administrators continue to support this quackery?”

I’ve been watching to see if/when the ABA industry might add trans people to their targets. I wonder if this might be the first step. A state might use this "reasoning" to declare that all trans children are autistic and therefore they need ABA. I hope I’m wrong, but AMB Wealth Management has a web page saying "Mental health issues in schools and the provision of more providers will ultimately expand ABA recognition beyond ASD exclusively" - so really all that’s needed is for those in power to view transgender expression as a mental health issue. The path to ABA is shortened when one equates transgender and autistic.
Perhaps the advocates for trans genocide won’t let the private equity firms that are beginning to dominate the ABA industry get involved.
The "black and white thinking" ascribed to autistics by The Daily Caller is so hypocritical when they are the one’s publishing black and white thinking. (I’m feeling righteous anger about all of this, and I find these stereotypes especially irritating).

Too many activists prioritize reputation.

They hesitate to engage in resistance for fear of being perceived as “extremist” or “pushing an agenda.”

They forget that 75 percent of Americans hated in 1968.
