washingtonpost.com/…/biggest-autism-advocacy-grou…

Tldr:

It’s founded and ran by two boomers who have an autistic grandson and were very very upset he had autism. That’s the generation that would actively try to avoid diagnosis and help because they thought the label was worse than the disease, preventing an entire generation from getting assistance.

So its less about empowering people with autism, and more fearmongering how bad it is and that someone with autism shouldn’t have any agency or choice in their lives.

I didn’t dig very deep, but yeah, I could see how that organization does a bunch of problematic shit
