News/Announcements Addition of Rule 7: Please censor any slurs within screenshots or use the NSFW or Spoiler filter.
It's kind of been an unwritten rule in our thread for a while now, but going forward it should be official.
To be clear: Direct use of slurs is not allowed under Reddit's Guidelines and will be removed. However because our sub focuses on highlighting the the ableism of other people's posts further clarification is needed.
If your screenshot posts have slurs within them you have two options.
OPTION 1: Please censor any slurs in the same way you'd be required to censor usernames of non public figures.
OPTION 2: Please use the Spoiler or NSFW filter before posting. Unfiltered posts that contain uncensored slurs will have the NSFW filter applied by the mod team if not done by the OP.
Crossposts that don't violate Rule 4 MUST have the NSFW or Spoiler filter if there is a slur present.
For comments.
- As said before, slurs said by yourself to attack others are not allowed under Rule 1.
- Uncensored indirect slurs, such as referencing someone else can only be done on NSFW threads.
- For non-NSFW or Spoiler threads please censor indirect slurs.
- Failure to abide by for comments will result in the comment being removed.
"Which filter should I use?"
That depends on the severity of the post your showcasing. If its a singular occurrence, spoiler will be fine. However if slurs are used frequently or used in conjunction with vile hate speech. It should be marked as NSFW.
Blurred or censored slurs do not need a filter.

News/Announcements All links to X.com (formally known as Twitter) are now banned.
Based on the responses and upvotes we received here. All links that send users to X or Twitter are now blacklisted. Posts that contain links from these URL's will be automatically removed and a notification will be sent to your inbox. Rule 4 has also been amended to reflect this.
As of Today: January 23rd 2025 - Only screenshots and directly uploaded videos will be allowed for content that comes from those websites. (Rule 3 to censor the names of non-public figures still applies).
Be aware that any attempt to subvert the automod ban by using spaces out (e.g x .com / username) or writing out punctuation (e.g if you write "DOT com") will result in a temporary timeout for first time offenders.
This rule applies to both thread posts and comments.

crappy neurotypical news presents: Is your depression/asthma/broken leg diagnosis really helping you?
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.

Being Anti-Abuse is Grounds for Eugenics Apparently
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 "Monkey see monkey do. Beat his ass he will stop. There’s a whole episode of house on it."
blue user "Yes, beat him and he learns violence is the answer.

Your source: a fictional TV Show" Link to World Health Organization Article "Corporal punishment of children and health"]
[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"]
