Non-autistic parents and professionals are lobbying for the term "profound autism." But autistic people themselves think the label is dangerous & will lead to autistic people with more needs getting less help. In @autisticadvocacy.org's #ProfoundAutism toolkit: autisticadvocacy.org/the-profound...

The “Profound Autism” Label Hurts Autistic People

Functioning labels don’t help autistic people get what we need. They hurt us. Recently, some people have started using a new functioning label called profound autism.

Autism acceptance isn't about pretending everything is fine if it isn't. It means understanding why autistic people do things, not blaming them (or your autistic self) when it's hard, or when you have competing needs. Ideally, it also means cherishing joy harder. (So much harder.) #neurodiversity

It is not easy to be autistic in groups with people who are sharply neuroconformist. Sorry but if you say something pointed at me I'm gonna point back. I do not see why I should have to sit through the gross charade over the sharpness. These neuro standards are painful.

So, uh. Japan has long since thought of anime and manga as a form of soft power that it can extend with almost no pushback. The American equivalent to this would destroy the very things we (mostly) love about comics in service of leveraging them for the aims of empire.
