their reasoning disregards their own rules, i admit that i did this out of anger and i may have come off as if i was making drama but it was not like that. The thing is I started making ruckus on the server bc i genuienly felt this needed to be called out. I’m very against things like autismspeaks for reasons listed on the post above. The disconnect from the identity crisis and the interaction is due to the fact that the argument was not about my identity crisis but the fact they didn’t abide by their own rules and ignored many points I’ve made

submitted

the last part isn’t surprising

thank you, i’ll submit the story tomorrow

im no longer on reddit, also the guy who picked on me was from that sub as well

yeah things like that get stuck with me sometimes, i can totally relate

lots of cattle

i didn’t know that

letting people share autismspeaks funded articles without repercussion, not only is it against the rules but also damages autistic people, and i couldn’t let that slide

To me it’s like this. I’m fairly good at learning languages from my language family bc they share very similar patterns, eg. I’ve learned some Portuguese just by hearing it without studying the grammar and I’m fairly decent at it. Though I also learned japanese which is a tough nut to crack bc it has a lot of social nuances and patterns that don’t exist in romance languages: I started when I was 13 and I’m still studying it only having reached a good level a few years ago.

yeah also no entitled mods here so that’s a plus

is vent related to chicken laying eggs?

i don’t like the idea of a community that big setting a precedent like this. Then ofc I’m staying here bc it’s much better, but i feel like this is a big problem, bc ppl are more prone to flock to that cesspool and thus getting exposed to autismspeaks propaganda and redditors. Im gonna take my benzos bc I’m really agitated about this

still something tho

it’s very coded in romance languages/my conlang, so it’s understandable

there’s a conlang sub? cool! (also i developed it in a few months by sounding it out then i wrote this in my notes)

🐣🐣🐣

it’s crazy how nobody cares there! I’m literally pestering the subreddit bc its unacceptable

the thing is I’m not even self diagnosed yet they went for the jugular (i dunno if it’ll make sense in english) assuming i was

the worst part is i talked to the moderators and they glossed over the autism speak paper thing. I’m glad my technosavvy brother told me about this app
