In light of the things RFK said about autistic people recently, I feel like it's important to remember where the term "Asperger's Syndrome" came from.
It was the nazi's way of sorting between "useful" autistic people that could still work for them, and "unwanted" autistic people that would be sent to the camps. We kept using the term until very recently to my memory, and I'm not one to speculate but I wouldn't be surprised if the distinction comes back into popularity in the near future. Or even becomes legally recognized.
This isn't about whether or not you personally paid your taxes or wrote a poem. People have value and a right to exist regardless of their ability to do those things, and the second we forget about that and say "oh but I'm not the kind of autistic person he's talking about, I'm useful" we've fallen directly back into the line of thinking they had in literal nazi germany.

You should be furious that people trying to escape genocide in Gaza, Sudan, Congo all need raise an absurd amount of money just to survive
You should be furious at how these people went through atrocity after atrocity and still need raise tens of thousands of dollars to get away
You should be furious at this insidious thing that completely encapsulates how capitalism feeds off of blood
MISS PIGGY I BELIEVE IN YOU!!!!
Since it’s lesbian visibility day, my friends are legally obligated to listen to me being a sappy sapphic
Old art from middle school? I burned it. What happened in middle school stays in middle school. Some old stories I just delete.
However, I like to keep fun ideas or remnants of ideas. An old character or plot line could still be fun to explore, use in a different way, or redo.
Please elaborate in the tags if you want to. I'm really curious about what the relationship with their own "bad" art is like for other people.
I post when I feel like it. My brain screams at me a lot.
