I'd also add that romanticizing low support needs autistim makes those with higher support needs feel alienated from the community, or go as far as making some deny support due to seeing other autistics handle the same situation better.
When talking about autism it's sososososoosooooo important to talk about high support needs !! For all autistics !!
Y’all self diagnosing as low support autistic, you are valid. But let’s not pretend like high support need individuals don’t exist. Autism isn’t trendy, it isn’t “quirky”, it’s not a brag to be put on your profile to say “I think I might be autistic” for clout on the internet. Autism comes in many forms, and high support individuals probably don’t see their autism as a brag. Being nonspeaking, having a lack of control over your own motor function, needing assistance in most every aspect of your life, being stripped of your independence because otherwise you may be unsafe to yourself or others, being looked down upon by a society who views you as “retarded”….low support autism is valid and deserving of the same supports as high support autism, but to those of you that romanticize autism, whether you are autistic or not, please stop. Autistic individuals are beautiful, amazing, and so worthy of love no matter where they fall on the spectrum. But autistic individuals will always face challenges because of their neurodivergence by a society that as a majority is uneducated and lacking empathy. If you suspect you may be autistic, please pursue your truth. Maybe you became good at masking without knowing you were doing it, maybe you are “quirky”, etc. Be true to yourself.
However…
Romanticizing autism ignores the reality of the many many high support individuals who do not have that luxury. Love yourself but do not trivialize or erase the reality of our high support brothers and sisters.
He's venting

hey!!!! if you can't donate because you don't have the funds, here's a playlist of videos that use ad revenue to pay for bail funds, charities, etc! if you like zoe amira's video these are just like hers!
also! stream it like kpop stans do! watch the videos entirely and DONT SKIP THE ADS!!!! that's how you help is by watching them! (interacting with them helps boost revenue! so just click on some links! but make sure you stay on the video!) watch the videos completely, and if you want to repeat one go watch a couple videos (length DOES NOT MATTER! it just has to be different ones) youtube will mark you as spam if you just keep playing it over and over!
stay safe!
This is your reminder that if you have a problem with someone, something they're doing, something they're saying or if they forgot something important, or if they have done you wrong in some way. This is your reminder that you should talk to them.
Tell them what's wrong
Tell them you're hurting
Tell them they fucked up
Tell them.
Because if you dont, if you let this feeling simmer, you may end up losing them.
Communication is important to any relationship. Friendship, familial, romantic, all of it. Tell them when they fuck up.
If you don't communicate, it'll all fall into shambles. I've lost friends because they didn't tell me I fucked up. They didn't tell me i was hurting them. I didn't tell them they fucked up. I didn't tell them I was hurting because of what they did or said. And now. I lost my best friend and the person I loved for the longest.
Please, talk to people. Tell them your feelings. Tell them they fucked up. Listen to them if they tell you that you fucked up. Listen and communicate.
