#It even got removed as a distinct diagnosis in the DSM V 10 years ago

Was going to do a big response to the person who wrote this, but I checked and they're a terf, so kinda glad I can just block and move on
#Just for completeness sake though- we don't use Aspergers anymore because amongst other reasons Hans Asperger worked with the fucking Nazis#It even got removed as a distinct diagnosis in the DSM V 10 years ago#Additionally the use of high functioning and low functioning as categories have been moved away from by disability communities#Because of one of the other reasons we don't use aspergers anymore#categorising people by how well they can fit into abled and neurotypical society helps perpetuate a more eugenicist world view#The terminology more favoured currently is high or low support needs and even that's still in flux
