This one’s for you Spectrum 10k
I am angry. I am beyond angry.
I am angry, tired, sad, stressed, and quite frankly, sickened to my core.
Since S10k was announced, I have watched as their blithe request for our DNA has traumatised a community that I love beyond measure.
My friends and colleagues have poured their heart into fighting your (not so covert) eugenics program. I have shared in their triumph, I have shared in their sadness.
I have shared in their horror.
You, S10k, have traumatised an entire minority group. You have taken our emotions, and laid them bare for the vultures.
Enough is enough. Your blatant attempt to pacify us with generic platitudes and promises of doing better are not enough.
We will not stop, we will not back down.
This fight has taken touch from us, but we continue to fight so that a future generation of Autistics may exist.
We fight so that future generations don’t have to.
I refuse to stand by while people I care about suffer at your hands. Your team, S10k, are a constant threat to our wellbeing.
We will interrupt your attempts to erase us.
We are proudly Autistic, not diseased, not damaged. We are the answer to the question “what’s the difference?” We are a beautiful minority.
We are not your play things.
