Just in case people don& #39;t know how horrifying Autism Speaks is, I& #39;m gonna do a little thread:
A woman who held a leadership position in the organisation contemplated killing her autistic child. https://youtu.be/C7NTfZzS9b8 ">https://youtu.be/C7NTfZzS9...
A campaign video from AS presents autism as a condition which takes over children& #39;s souls and & #39;works faster than AIDs cancer and diabetes& #39; combined and & #39;makes sure your marriage fails& #39;. https://youtu.be/9UgLnWJFGHQ ">https://youtu.be/9UgLnWJFG...
Autism Speaks associates with the Judge Rotenberg Centre, a school noted for being the only one in the world to use electric aversives on its pupils. Many of pupils are autistic.

Christ that& #39;s bad, well, what about vaccines? Well, lets just say that AS were definitely an open anti-vaxx group right up until 2009. https://science.sciencemag.org/content/325/5937/135.1">https://science.sciencemag.org/content/3...
They are also, by all accounts, a pro-eugenics organisation, partnering with Google to do a gene sequencing project which seeks to & #39;understand autism& #39;. https://www.autismspeaks.org/science-news/autism-speaks-mssng-project-reaches-10000-genome-milestone">https://www.autismspeaks.org/science-n...
