Anybody else unable to watch Ludwig because it appears to be an autistic man making fun of autistic traits?

✨New @OpenAccess research
"Findings highlight strong support for #autistic leadership ... and for societal reform, and suggest that oversimplified rhetoric may cause confusion regarding advocates’ views"

Our paper about neurodiversity, models of disability, and intervention preferences is out.
Led by Patrick Dwyer, with a stellar team.
It is a sequel to our 2013 Dev Psych Neurodiversity paper and I think it has a depth and power that is 11 years stronger: journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.…

I haven't seen this book, so this is not a recommendation based on having read it, but I am reposting in case it's of interest to anyone.
Are you autistic or supporting someone who is? This beautifully written book, co-authored by 11-year-old Rose and her mum Jodie, an autism specialist, breaks down the autistic experience in a way that truly makes sense. 💬💡

Struggling to understand the history of the self advocacy movement? Want to better understand your rights as an autistic person and how to find community? “Welcome to the Autistic Community” is for you! autismacceptance.com/
Dr Tracy Turner retweeted
When you tell an autistic person that you’d never know they’re autistic, trust they’ve spent a lot of time making sure that’s the case. Not because they’re ashamed but because no one’s paid attention to how much effort they put into belonging in public while suffering in private.

Our new paper @AutismAdulthood found much consensus against normalization & for well-being, societal reform & supportive environments in autism community: findings were robust to closeness to autistics w/ intellectual disabilities & nonspeaking autistics. liebertpub.com/doi/10.1089/a…
