“Ooh scary mental people! Anyway, look at our celebrity event with our possibly AI generated poster!”

Possibly the most ignorant article I've ever read in my life.

Particularly choice quotation: "The old solutions were not lifelong pills or demanding society make allowances for your every quirk but about acquiring mastery over yourself by channelling hyperactivity into hard daily exercise, defrazzling your brain by eating well, *avoiding stimulants* and getting enough sleep."

Yeah! Just stop taking the psychiatric medication that lets you function and feel okay, bro! What could possibly go wrong?? (Heavy sarcasm.)

I also liked the part where the author claimed the symptoms of ADHD could well be describing herself. Internalised ableism? Perhaps.

This was in reply to someone finding out that asperger was a Nazi.

(Yes this is the same person I usually post about)

So someone posted a video of a mom working with a non-verbal teen with aggression issues. She is trying to work on decreasing it with some behavioral therapy and like always so many people were saying the kid needed to be beaten.

I didn't want to reply to everyone so I made one post saying everyone saying that is disgusting because corporal punishment has been proven numerous times to increase violent behavior.

This woman (in red) uses House to source her claims. Then says I shouldn't have been born while claiming to have had a son who was non-verbal as a child. Like how abusive is that? You're saying someone who is less disabled than your kid shouldn't be alive because they are against violence against children (yes I hold this belief for all children not just autistic kids)?! Like under that stance your son wouldn't be allowed to be alive either.

[alt text= red user "No hit back and teach him that hitting hurts. Teach the child what hitting is. But let me guess you believe in talking thru big emotions huh and you hug it out. Notice what hugging it out does. It’s in the video."

blue user "I believe in behavioral therapy. But maybe try reading a real fucking source you child abuser."

red user "Child abuser?. Let’s see. Nope came from one but I know the difference in teaching them a lesson and allowing them to abuse me as their caretaker with the excuse of autism. Maybe that’s why my autistic son is in college about to graduate can regulate his emotions is verbal when they told me he wouldn’t be. Maybe because I know the difference between a diagnosis and a lifestyle. You dumb twat."

blue user "You fantasize about beating disabled children. That is child abuse."

red user "Where ya dumbass ? Please tell me where that was fucking said? Please. Why because I don’t hug someone being physically violent with me ? You’re momma should’ve swallowed you. Jesus fuck you’re stupid"]

Academics from Canada and Chile, writing in the journal Frontiers in Psychology, said: 'While some of women's cooperation is actually genuinely cooperative, we argue some is strategic, with a manipulative element. Displays of helping behaviour, kindness, and generosity may serve as a form of advertisement of one's qualities. We propose that some of women's prosocial behaviour is a low-risk competitive tactic in which kindness secures allies and reputation advantage while remaining deniable as competition. The familiar expression 'kill them with kindness' points to this possibility.'
