question: personally, what is your opinion on Autism Speaks? being honest, i hate them. they're just a disguised hate group trying to cure something that's not a disease.

      I think that they are a façade; claiming that they are there to help those with Autism but when I look to get help from them it doesn’t have a lot of resources on their site

        @yolanda69 they spread a lot of misinfo that creates more stigma, support harmful "treatments" like ABA, put their research into biomedics to find a "cure" instead of quality of life research, and very little of their funding actually goes to helping autistic people and their families.

      Yeah I also hate them, everything they stand for is harmful.

      Autism speaks has historically been very hurtful to the autism community. There is a growing movement of folks against them.
