convinced that most people on this site either ignore or hate high support needs autistic people. i feel like if most activists on here interacted with like a 24 year old autistic person who grunts and jumps to stim and needed a caretaker and spoke exclusively in echolalia and was carried around sesame street dolls and had a learning disability and isn't comprehensive enough to advocate for themself without someone to help, they would have a stroke on the spot.

#like. i swear i very very very rarely see support for high support needs autistics on here #and thats depressing bc like. most autistic people i know especially irl are high support needs #growing up most autistic people i knew WERE the ''stereotype'' who had meltdowns in public and were nonverbal #and unfortunately i have seen them get poor treatment from low support needs autistics #because ''well im not like THEM.'' which is what my oldest brother pulls on my other brother #and i feel like if you even mention that then you're just talking about a stereotype and ''talking down to autistic people''#anyways logging off again byeeee #echoed voice
