List of red flags that an organization that claims to help autistic people is actually a hate group
- Their about page mentioning that autism has no known cure, or implying that they or other groups are trying to cure it or doing “treatments” for it.
- Positive mentions of ABA therapy.
- Calling autistic people “people who have autism” or even “people who suffer from autism” on their pages.
- Having no autistic members that you know of.
- Using the puzzle piece symbol in a positive way.
- Positive mentions of Autism $peaks.
- Red, yellow, and blue colors. {not red by itself}
- Positive mentions of quiet/listening hands.
- Calling autistic people “tragedies” or “mentally r*****ed”.
- Saying that it’s a miracle that an autistic person (especially its a child) has as much intelligence as allistics.
This could save an autistic person’s life. If you’re allistic, reblog, but don’t comment on this.
