The problem with the current dominant narrative regarding autism is that it comes from non-affected parties. Usually non-autistic parents of autistic children, or non-autistic professionals. That's a problem because people who aren't on the autism spectrum themselves cannot possibly have insight into the how and why. Because they're not our people, they're outsiders, they're humans on safari observing zebras and making opinions based on their non-experiential perceptions from the outside-in.
Consequently, they're incapable of completely understanding how to properly support and help except from a hard facts doctor perspective -- which we don't need any more thereof, keep your cold clinical data research to yourselves, we're done being your test subjects! The allistic mind is not the neurodivergent mind, we have no common experiential ground, we might as well be separate species as fundamentally differing as dolphins from beetles.
This is why more and more autistic people and other neurodivergents have grown so thoroughly disgusted, disappointed, insulted, and deeply wounded by decades of abuse and neglect each by the so-called professionals, the medical industry, and other institutions who LIE when the CLAIM only wanting to help. And so more and more of us have made the executive decision to #WalkAway from "the experts" and refuse to "trust the science" ever again. Nothing about us without us!
