The state kills us, then they ban Black history so people won’t learn what a permanent feature of American society it is—or which strategies have worked to resist. #LegalizeBlackHistory#CounselorsNotCops— Jesse Hagopian (@JessedHagopian) January 28, 2023

To add my heartfelt thoughts to the on-point @DrAmyPearsonMaking autism research accessible to autistic community.Setting expectations for autism research to raise the bar on research ethics, quality, participatory design.For this, @AnnMemmott is a beacon.#SpectrumNotMyNews— Neurodivergent Dr (@autisticdoc) January 28, 2023

If you’re in the Austin area today, the 29th, we're putting on a free “Metal Health Fest” with free food & 3 great bands.All artists are paid, and money raised helps neurodivergent and disabled people stay housed & alive through direct giving.https://t.co/kg3DB29KQZ— Stimpunks (@stimpunks) January 29, 2023

Honestly, I want to like and retweet every part of this thread. This is how much I relate to all of the points raised here. Applicable to not only autism research but also research involving other marginalized groups. I highly recommend this thread! https://t.co/cYSL0lmjhq— Bethlehem Tekola, PhD (@BettyTekola) January 26, 2023

Still reeling from that Spectrum news article which tried to paint some of the finest autistic activists (and me) as rabble-rousing monsters attacking science.I'm still furious. How dare they?— Pete Wharmby (@commaficionado) January 27, 2023

You need to apologize, redact, and write a new article about how hurtful this was to us.— You Might Be Autistic (@mightbeautistic) January 26, 2023

Spectrum's coverage of the rising leadership and participatory involvement of autistic people in autism research has had a consistently toxic effect, embodied in this article. I've therefore been informally boycotting Spectrum, the autism specific news site & here's whya 🧵 https://t.co/uqvh37Pc5O— Sue Fletcher-Watson (@SueReviews) January 26, 2023

The patterns we see in much of the reporting published in Spectrum closely mirror the systemic prejudice baked in to reporting on other grassroots social justice movements, as highlighted by @BettyTekola herehttps://t.co/vc6jH3H1Rx— Sue Fletcher-Watson (@SueReviews) January 26, 2023

I will say, Spectrum publishing non-autistics saying they prefer to work in spaces with no autistic people so they can do ableist and dehumanizing work against autistic people in peace is useful, because it shows just how callous these people are. Our lives are careers to them.— fun facts with lulu 🌈 (@FunFactsLulu) January 25, 2023

My private boycott means, with some exceptions (when I wanted to give the individual reporter the benefit of the doubt) I have declined invitations for interviews, commentsEven when the report attempts to be balanced, the result is to reinforce ideas of division & friction— Sue Fletcher-Watson (@SueReviews) January 26, 2023

Many of the most egregious failings of this article are articulated wonderfully by @DrMBotha here - including the attempt to implicitly divide autistic people into "the mob" and those who are 'rational', Good Autisticshttps://t.co/aD6xKEq4lu— Sue Fletcher-Watson (@SueReviews) January 26, 2023

And can we talk about how my FOI requests revealed not one, but *two* emails from #Spectrum10K researchers branding autistic advocates “trolls” for asking legitimate questions about the study, a revelation of considerable public interest?https://t.co/AXO3LwaLti— Liam O'Dell (@LiamODellUK) January 26, 2023

“The rising leadership & participatory involvement of autistic people in autism research”Exactly that - the reason for all the recent diatribes.Let’s just keep training & supporting #autistic researchers til culture changes & we enjoy parity of esteem and safety to disclose https://t.co/HbuVAIz8z1— Mary Doherty (@AutisticDoctor) January 26, 2023

When someone tells you they’re autistic or have ADHD, instead of saying:- “you don’t look autistic/ADHD”; or- “everyone has a bit of that nowadays”,a better response is:- “thank you for telling me. Is there anything I can do to help you feel supported and thrive here?”.— Callum Stephen (He/Him) (@AutisticCallum_) January 26, 2023

The autistic joy that comes with dressing in a way that meets your sensory needs! This shiny shirt provides me with a lot of visual stimulation *and* feels so soft. 💙 pic.twitter.com/3OG4228Dxb— Callum Stephen (He/Him) (@AutisticCallum_) January 26, 2023

I am SUUUUUPER suspicious of these autism researchers freaking out about working alongside autistic researchers 👃— auntie histamine (@laurenancona) January 27, 2023

#Autistic humans are data hungry, information seeking missiles that will stop at nothing to know all about a subject we are interested in, so I think the fact that many Autistic people remember school as torturous says more about our educational systems than it does about us.— You Might Be Autistic (@mightbeautistic) January 27, 2023
