AUTISM as a put-down/JUST STOP

Just stop. Stop using autism as a put-down. As the parent of a daughter on the autism spectrum, its disheartening when ignorant people use it as a term of derision, not just these forums, but in everyday life. People on the spectrum process information in very unique ways, but also exhibit behaviors that typically minded folks may find odd. They can also exhibit uncanny genius--my daughter by age 5 knew world capitals better than most grownups, having an eidetic memory. Unless you personally know someone affected by autism spectrum disorder (ASD) you don't know jack, & your digs are borne of spiteful indifference. So to all who would continue to do so, there goes your insensitive theory, plummeting out a high-rise window. Autism: different...not worse. **daughter Dylan drops mic/walks offstage** [b]Ninja edit:[/b] [spoiler]This thread has been moved to [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/140397455/0/0]#Offtopic,[/url] a more appropriate forum for this offtopic discussion.

  • I am an adult on the spectrum and using autism as an insult greatly disturbs me. Mostly because we seem to be moving backwards as a society in terms of accepting what we don't understand. However growing up my parents often used the phrase "you can't fix stupid" I do believe you CAN fix ignorance though. I mostly try to determine whether someone is ignorant or just plain stupid or malicious. If they're ignorant I will try to inform them if not they can rot in hell for all I care. I'm only making this post because some people here seem to get it and I would like to extend an invitation to my Xbox club Guardians of the Spectrum. We are a club for people with autism and their families to interact in a safe environment. Come check is out.
