Been seeing a lot of autism-related posts lately. I figured I'd chime in to spell out what's going on. From the perspective of a sperg.
The radical left would never have power or clout for their issues if they only raised money and protested about the singular issues they actually care about. There isn't actually all that much interest in turning the country into China "done right this time" for example. Not a whole lot of interest in making all kids into genderless unicorns, either.
The radical left has done something like World of Warcraft's horde. They look for people neglected, aggrieved, pissed off, and they try to hoop those people in. They do it with promises of support, change and representation. Intersectionality itself is just a promise that the more "reasons" you have to be pissed off, the more clout and power you have in this arena.
Look at the Black population. I'll relate this back to autism in a minute. Do we have playing with acceptable terminology? Yes. Do have have "scientific research" designed to quantify victimhood? Yes. Do we have a shell game going on with how it's acceptable to talk about these things to landmine the normies and keep them out of the discussion? Yes. Do we see lionizing of bad or self destructive behavior as a virtue? Yes. Did it get added to the war-banner of the progress -- the pride flag, despite not at all being part of sexuality or gender? Yup! Destroyed elements of gatekeeping so fat feminist Marxists could become leaders? Yup.
Guess what? All this is going on with Autism. On a similar timescale to how Black was co-opted.
Main grievances: Actually get killed by the police more often than any other protected class. 85% unemployment rate but not explicitly protected from workplace discrimination the same way a physical disability is. ( So you're toast if the office ladies find you "creepy." ) Remaining 15%? Only a quarter are full time and without government programs designed to keep them in a job. Other 75% of working autistics need a support program like a job coach or subsidized wages. Communicative autistics with aspergers automatically deemed ineligible for support benefits because asperger's diagnosis included a level 1 support requirement instead of 2 or 3.
How the left co-opted us: Deleted the aspergers diagnosis. Now all forms of autism are a "spectrum" and the government has to assess support level needs. Enables our worst behaviors. Speaks against attempt to screen for, treat or cure the disability. Promised us future help for seeking government assistance.
Re: Promoting autism as positive: Just look up autism and neurodivergent or neurospicy on tiktok. It's disgusting. You just have hundreds of young teen girls presenting themselves as autistic like mental health blackface. None of us exhibit the symptoms of all 4 domains AND have the wherewithal to also turn on a camera and ham it up. This growing community is adamant that autistics shouldn't be helped. This creates further victimhood for the purposes of trapping us on the leftist progressive plantation.
Re:Terminology -- Aspergers is being deleted as an acceptable term. They've turned him into a Nazi despite him being more like Oskar Schindler. Dude straight up saved as many autistics as he could from being gassed. They've recharacterized him as being a true-believer of Nazi-ism instead of realizing the dude had to fit in to have clout to save these people in a time when being the wrong ethnicity alone was reason enough. The USA has retired the diagnosis as of the latest DISM. The WHO already retired it from the IDC. There is now no health manual left that still allows for this diagnosis. Now that term and many terms around mental disability are socially taboo to speak despite the fact that it was just very useful to describe someone as having aspergers as opposed to autistic. When someone says autistic, you don't know what to expect. Headbutting, shit flinging, screaming, or just somebody with very specific knowledge, skills, and a poor social aptitude. Thanks leftists!
Re: Statistics -- I just demonstrated some of that activist research already in motion. They also have a lot of big ESG companies coming out and making statements about how much more productive their autistic workers are compared to normal people.
Re: Normies -- These terms like Neurotypical and Neurodivergent, not being allowed to just straight say autistic vs normal thinking and behavior. Same way they're trying to turn normal people into "Cis" when it comes to gender. This is to gatekeep you out and to also trick people into self-flagging as not progressive so they can be excluded and isolated.
Re: Prideflag -- Yes, there are now revisions that include autism being floated. You think they're a joke until it isn't. Just like we had thought the BLM prideflag was a joke.
Re: Infilitration -- Yup. There is a huge push to say that women have autism just as much as men. So feminist marxist women can take over the space. They're already doing a great job of this on tiktok and marginalize male voices. They also did this on reddit's two largest autism subs and have gotten a bunch of feminist "autistic" mods in charge of them. Aspergers is frowned upon and if spoken of in certain contexts, you're banned. If you forcefully voice your desire for a cure, you get shamed into oblivion. The aspergers subreddit itself keeps getting flagged NSFW due to reporting brigades, so you can't google scrape it and so you can't view it without logging in or using the old.reddit trick.
Regarding women having autism as much as men. They don't. It's a gendered condition. Genetic safeguards are more heavily present on the X sex chromosome and that is just enough to tip it towards being a majority male disease. Just like dementia and MS is a majority female disease or how parkinson's and ALS are masculine diseases. They justify this very large undiagnosed population with "women are better at masking their symptoms!" Okay, masking is real, but if you are hiding your symptoms well enough to be socially acceptable and lauded, and the men aren't, you are not clinically fit to represent all those who are incapable of doing so or speak for them.
We've all seen the statistics though. The left has convinced women as a whole to be needing of drugs and diagnosis for everything to explain general unhappiness. Which isn't their fault or inherent to their gender -- I'm not imp. I realize they've been manipulated and pandered to by the left.
All I really wanted as an autistic person was for our support needs to be assessed individually instead of being lumped into vocal or not vocal by the US government. Instead, I got my diagnosis deleted by commies and here we are. I got no voice. Run out of my own condition by narcissistic malingering feminist Marxists that want to have more foot soldiers for their political manipulation game.
I mean:
The holocaust didn't happen. The only 'truth' is that jews were, indeed sent to camps where they worked.
There is no physical evidence.
Unfortunately, points (1) and (2) can't really be argued over the internet -- I have great success explaining them to people in real life, but I need pen/paper to do some sketches. If you're ready to think about it, the mammoth 'One-third of the holocaust', available on Bitchute is probably the best -- but it's three hours long, and slow-moving, because the director shows that every single (jewish) source that he's using is an actual, physical book.
The 'normie' part is because you invoked the totally madly evil 'Nazis!!!'
I don't think that your thoughts are unoriginal. Again, it's just the evil 'Nazis!!!' that gets tiresome.
Look, if you want an alternate viewpoint, go to the 'Unz Review', (www.unz.com). The author RON UNZ (a jew) has a series of articles up right now about WWII and Hitler. Read it and see what you think.

I know you're NTA.
I believe there is physical evidence. The body burning process does not burn up the bones. Those had to be ground up with ball bearings in drum grinders. Not only is there photographs of chunky mostly-ground-up bones with pelvis and the like sticking up... there are buried caches of human ash and bone meal around the extermination camps. In fact, a large part of these these were found is because they do respond to metal detectors due to the fact that metal dust and missed ballbearings were often part of what was buried.
If your definition of proof requires you to be able to go there and play around in piles of human bone ash, and desecrate mass graves to satisfy yourself, I think that's unreasonable.
That said my bloodline is German, ashkenazi jew, and autistic. (which ashkenazi jew are disproportionately autistic.)
I had family members that were freed from work camps. According to them, I had other family members that were exterminated for mental illness or died from being worked too hard. There were no benefits at the time to playing that up. Certainly, my bloodline has erred on the side of poverty and the working class. Definitely not part of any secret cabals. No hush money. No victimbux. Do you mean to tell me that we're all carrying on a lie for some reason? I can't think of many reasons why a family would pass down a fictional history.
Also, why the elaborate backstory for the condition of asperger's itself? A ton of fake letters about fake autistic and their fake usefulness? Why useful propagandist or globalist function would that have? Only to delete the diagnosis less than 70 years later because of offensiveness?
I think the "Why" is fair to ask.
I'd also had, no offense, a lot of flat-earth believers and sovereign citizens excitedly and giddily tell me about their secret knowledge. I think there's a very real human need to be "woke" to some truth. Knowing something others do not helps us elevate ourselves above them.
While I do think the holocaust is probably overstated, and a lot less died than is stated, because I am well aware of how the left twists and distorts statistics... I do think the gas chambers and crematoriums were completely real and in active use. I think the soil itself around these places is physical evidence, and there is geological evidence from the unnatural amount of burning people going on.
TLDR: The left lies, but they build their lying on some aspects of truth. I think that truth is more sinister than work camps.
