for autism acceptance month i think it's important that we understand that autism acceptance can't be based on the lowest common denominator. which means we can't simplify autism to only the broad aspects that appeal to the largest group of people (ableds). it was wrong of people to act like autism was a horrible disease that "stole your child" from you. it's also wrong to act like common symptoms of classical autism are only stereotypes that have to be shut down. there's going to be lots of different ways that people with autism behave, how their symptoms manifest, what they struggle with. instead of acting like there's some one true presentation of autism, acknowledge how varied it is. how many aspects of someone's life it can affect. how they're different severities and different presentations. include autistic people who are like you and autistic people who are not like you
