I have to say, I REALLY don't care what 'causes' autism

My interest lies in hearing autistic voices, greater rights, highlighting autistic skills and making sure needs are met

The money ploughed into 'cause' research could fund more advocacy, services and ultimately empowerment

[Damian Milton @milton_damian]

And this from someone doing presentations on autism and the criminal justice system. We need better standards for autism conferences. Of that there is no doubt. So what is the 'intervention' needed? https://t.co/VjkHhyCkYA

@ndawards Do you pay your disabled speakers at this ceremony properly, or just expenses?

@CatrionaSScot @EL_Hetherington @autismage @ShonaDav @AnnMemmott @katefoxwriter @milton_damian @SueReviews @Autism I'm all for real allies, but not for organisations that say they are allies, or working "for autism" while ignoring/disrespecting us.

@UnstrangeMind Why does dehumanizing nature of these therapies remains in question? UK sees a huge centre opening this month providing ABA

@brookewinters33 Because asking us what we need and how they could accommodate would mean that they'd have to communicate with us. 🤷🏻‍♀️

[Damian Milton @milton_damian]

@hanselasper @ShonaDav @autismage @AnnMemmott @katefoxwriter @EL_Hetherington @CatrionaSScot @SueReviews @Autism https://t.co/xriCnpwLEo not a charity (as yet anyway), but looking at doing variety of events in future.

@autismage @SueReviews @AnnMemmott @ShonaDav @katefoxwriter @EL_Hetherington @CatrionaSScot @milton_damian @Autism Utterly unacceptable. Given actual workload of #actuallyautistic ppl 2 speak @ these inaccessible conferences, remuneration shld be reversed

[Emily Paige Ballou @epballou]

@brookewinters33 It doesn't occur to most people that there are autistic people everywhere. That when they talk about autistic people, we can hear them...
