While I get the importance of in-person organizing, there also have to be accountability and change about the fact that many of these protests are not accessible for disabled people. How y’all talking about organizing in-person and not including how ableism is connected?— Your Aries Media (she/her) (@yourariesmedia) June 25, 2022

So, I was talking to @rboren the other day and he shared this amazing list via @stimpunks that I'm currently raving over with Nicole. I love how organized everything is laid out from a bulleted list, and then a more in depth description.

Delighted to announce launch of the Information Autism website https://t.co/t8qed85MyF which replaces the Research Autism site and is designed to provide impartial, scientifically accurate and accessible information on #autism and interventions designed to help #autistic people.— InformationAutism (@InformAutism) June 27, 2022

Today, I want to talk about people who wander about saying, (paraphrased)"Those autistic people who are against extreme control of autistic children - they have no idea what a Real Autistic Child is like and How Much Damage They Can Do To Themselves - we're only being Kind"/— Ann Memmott PGC🌈 (They/she) (@AnnMemmott) June 27, 2022

A lot of supposedly tolerant liberal progressive-minded folks are making eugenics jokes and jokes about sterilization. A reminder that Buck v Bell has never been overturned.— Eric Michael Garcia (@EricMGarcia) June 26, 2022

If you're a doctor and think you don't hold an immense amount of power over people's lives and wellbeing and you don't regularly reflect on the responsibility that comes with that - you need to do some deep introspection. The system sucks. But you choose how much to bow to it.— Moriah Murray, DO (@MoriahMurrayDO) June 26, 2022

Our website is pastiche. We celebrate the work of the many authors and artists we incorporate into our storytelling. We encourage our learners to build and iterate via bricolage, pastiche, and celebration of their influences.https://t.co/80mDUpluQD— Stimpunks (@stimpunks) June 27, 2022

Studies show: - greater moral fortitude- not being influenced by group in polling situation- non-heuristic thinking- not being influenced by advertising- not lying for gainin autistics. And here is the nutty thing. They are described as deficits of 'Theory of mind'. ⬇️— #KatyElphinstone (@KatyElphinstone) June 26, 2022

A must-have guide for folks running campaigns committed to inclusion! (and as a reminder, inclusion as a construct, comes from the #disability community.)Would love to see it adopted broadly in advance of the midterms. #CripTheVote https://t.co/InmGfRw8GU— Rebecca Cokley (@RebeccaCokley) June 24, 2022

If you want to know more about how the Supreme Court and Olmstead changed community living, I wrote a whole book about this. https://t.co/GVOaCZwKn4— Eric Michael Garcia (@EricMGarcia) June 25, 2022

The Trump presidency showed that even though disability rights activists staged the most effective protests during his administration, #Resist liberals were some of the most ableist and exclusionary groups.— Eric Michael Garcia (@EricMGarcia) June 26, 2022

When the industry comes back around for queer folks (and it will, it is based on standardizing behaviour and stamping out difference) autistic advocates will be so tired and jaded and we will have been warning yall.I'm so tired— fun facts with lulu (@FunFactsLulu) June 26, 2022

Reminder to check out trustee candidates before supporting them just cause they're around other causes and conversations. ABA promoters are not safe representatives for education. https://t.co/9etq2jy8Oo— fun facts with lulu (@FunFactsLulu) June 26, 2022

I accept that I can't expect everyone to know the linguisitic preferences of the autistic community. But the endless emotional labour of politely asking people to change phrases like 'Katherine May is an adult living with autism' or 'has autism' wears me down.— Katherine May (@_katherine_may_) June 23, 2022

The best childrens media (She-Ra, Steven Universe, Kipo and the Age of the Wonderbeasts, Avatar the last Airbender) often depicts kids building coalitions of diverse marginalized people to fight oppressive status quo regimes with kindness yet defiant willingness to fight.— Jessie Earl (@jessiegender) June 25, 2022

imagine if more than one wheelchair user could be on the same bus. we'd be too powerful— sam (@undercafeinated) June 25, 2022

Every pride the leftists get so proud for "banning conversion therapy" and as an autistic I have to just bitterly laugh knowing those exact same people are cozying up to the ABA lobby who are doing the exact same practice to autistic kids. #ActuallyAutistic queers deserve better.— fun facts with lulu (@FunFactsLulu) June 26, 2022

I'm glad for the steps of progress too.But there's a complete lack of consciousness and acknowledgement in left spaces of the oppression that has been hoisted onto autistic queer folks while we celebrate hoisting it off of non-autistic queer folks.It's messed up ableism.— fun facts with lulu (@FunFactsLulu) June 26, 2022

I hate, hate, hate how people misunderstand autistic needs for structure and predictability so badly that they think imposing strict routines from outside is likely to be helpful.https://t.co/xtiOaami8o https://t.co/JcdHOv8xOP— Oolong 🍉 (@MxOolong) June 26, 2022

Thank you so much for saying this. People who make jokes about vasectomies have no fucking idea about how they were used as eugenics and I am disgusted when I see liberals make these jokes. https://t.co/mGMWPvTGyV— Eric Michael Garcia (@EricMGarcia) June 26, 2022
