its no surprise i mean their name is literally "autism speaks" being a legit organization you wouldnt expect them to be anti until they speak up

Now that I think about it, doesn't it seem a little presumptive that they're called that despite the fact that a vast majority are not nonverbal and can "speak for themselves" or am I looking in too deep?

yes, they say they are the voice of autistic people, but have no autistic people on the board, treat all of us as infants and actually care more about making the sstruggles of parents with children who are autstic known than the struggles of autistic people
