#ActuallyAutistic #AskingAutistics - with RFK Jr.’s recent comments about Autistic People, what’s something that you want the world to know about your experience as an Autistic Person/about Autism?

Productivity ≠ Humanity: Autism Isn’t the Problem—Ignorance Is – How RFK Jr. Got It Dangerously Wrong

Our Lives Have Value Even if We Can’t Work

It was telling that paying taxes and holding a job were the top two priorities in RFK’s speech.

This dangerous way of thinking (human value based on productivity) holds that we (people) are only worthy if we have exploitable capitalistic value and can support the system (but not if we need the system to support us) – which ignores the fact that needing support is part of the human experience.

We all start our lives needing support and (if we live long enough) will also end our lives needing support.

Placing value upon lives based on how much they earn hurts people with disabilities. It also harms humanity as a whole (because it enforces social hierarchies based on monetary value, productivity, and output).

When we devalue others, we are also devaluing ourselves.

When we devalue people who cannot work (or are limited in their ability to work, or who make less), we also normalize the idea that those with higher-paying jobs and people who make more money are “more valuable” than those who make less (doing everyone who’s not ultra-wealthy a considerable disservice).

Trump’s Dangerous Due Process Double Standard—Why It Could Strip Your (or Anyone’s) Rights Next

Due process means the government must follow explicit rules before taking away someone’s rights, property, or freedom. It is supposed to act as a shield, protecting people from unfair treatment (by ensuring they get notice and a chance to defend themselves against accusations).

Some examples of where people are entitled to due process include (but are not limited to) a police officer arresting a suspect, a person being removed from the country, or a judge sentencing a criminal once convicted.

When universally applied, due process acts as a powerful deterrent against abuses of power and is a key tool needed for upholding justice.

If we don’t provide everyone with due process, anyone could be easily punished or jailed (without evidence or an opportunity to share their side of things). Continue reading Trump’s Dangerous Due Process Double Standard—Why It Could Strip Your (or Anyone’s) Rights Next
