I'm honestly shocked that it still needs to be said in 2022, not to mention while I do love the #fediverse this is one of the few things which is worse here (but tbh that ain't surprising)

So here we go:

If you are #ActuallyAutistic but still use #Aspie #Aspergers or any variation of that word really to define yourself or worse put it into your bio, you are part of the problem (and if you need me to spell it for you the problem is #Sanism it's #Eugenism it's triage, it's the 3rd fucking Reich, it's exclusionary, supremacist and eliminatory rethoric)

#NothingNewUnderTheSun

(Context: I feel compelled to post this because I've had to delete some replies to some posts I otherwise related to, and then block said accounts because I did not have the strength to revisit that specific topic - you are talking to a french-german autistic trans kid whom was also aware of their Jewish origin and spent their childhood and pre-teens years with that very specific special interest in mind - it was my 14th and the only one that never left me)

The use of the asperger terminology is not up for debate here, if you cannot reflect on that I'm very sorry for you but I ain't got the spoons for your #Supremacist bullshit. Also because these things are tangently related: this is a #SelfDx #SelfDxsafe place, one that is radically inclusive, anything less than that is #LipService

#Neurodiversity not #NeuroHierarchy #LeaveNoOneBehind

( While I do not Adresse the subject in this post #LeaveNoOneBehind includes ALL forms of neurodivergences, if the #Aword is a slur, #Crazy is worse than that: it's a non-word )
