From 1982, the New Tribes Mission - an American fundamentalist evangelical organization – began to secretly make contact with the uncontacted Zo’é people. An epidemic spread: around a quarter of the Zo’é population died between 1982 and 1988.

NYTimes adding insult to injury in this tragedy. The “treatment” was for autism, which isn’t a thing, and was being done by someone with no medical training who charges cash for expensive bogus therapies. And now a 5-year-old is dead because of the grift.

I've been convinced to crosspost. The history of autism and autism diagnoses was quite fascinating to me. It really gives some insight to why we face the misconceptions and misunderstandings we do
Why is autism difficult to define?
(Part 1: Introduction and History)What is autism, in the first place?
The definition of Autism Spectrum Disorder sounds simple enough. It can be described as a neurodevelopmental condition that impacts how the individual experiences and navigates their physical and social environment. 

However, autism is not best described as a linear spectrum.
(Image of a rainbow spectrum from less autistic to more autistic)

Instead, it can be imagined as varying levels of traits and needs in a colour wheel.
(Image of a colour wheel with different autistic traits on it) 
It’s hard to decide what should even go on this wheel!
This wheel is giving “graphic design is my passion”However, how we understand autism has evolved rapidly and become more complex. It’s no surprise that some misconceptions arise.

“You can draw a straight line from the initial descriptions of many conditions – claustrophobia, for example, or vertigo – to their diagnostic criteria.

Not so with autism.”The shifting focus of autism

1943-1965:
Extreme autistic aloneness and insistence on sameness 
Leo Kanner identified a unique psychological disorder in children which he reduced to two key elements: “extreme isolation” and obsessive“ insistence on sameness”. Other traits that he identified but considered secondary or non-specific included: sensory hypersensitivity, poor motor skills, delayed echolalia.
1960–1980:
Language & other perceptual/cognitive abnormalities
By contrast, autism researchers in the 1960s and 70s argued that autism was the inability to develop a normal use and understanding of language together with sensory issues caused by cognitive defects. The social issues and resistance to change were considered secondary.
1980-2013: Deficits in social cognition and instinct
Lorna Wing defined autism through the triad of social and language impairment, which included restricted interests and repetitive behaviours. She introduced the concept of the autistic spectrum. Asperger’s Syndrome was introduced into the DSM IV in 1994.

Banning masks is a disability rights issue. I’ve almost died from a common cold multiple times. It’s not just about COVID. If you’re banning masks, you’re actively excluding those like me from accessing those spaces. Disabled people deserve to be in society.
