Ablecide: The hate crime no one talks about

It's terrible... It happens in USA, and it could happen anywhere....

*My disabled siblings are robbed of their lives, silently, in a way in which nobody notices, and nobody complains*

*They aren't allowed back into life, and meanwhile, those who didn't follow the instructions  are kept alive*

*And this has to do with the idea that it's better to save who "contributes to society*

*But, as i've said, productivity is a wacky (and many times ableist) concept*

*The money you can give to your society's millionaires doesn't define you... your values, principles and actions do.  The same people wanting your productivity are the ones who rob your money, and money shouldn't be everything in life*

*And yet, our rights to food, health, and many more, cost money*

*This world is really ambicious*

*And we´re hated because of this terrible ambition. They don't want us to stay on Earth,  no: we cough a bit and they throw us into the sky, often between atrocious pain. And nobody stays with us*

*This is, no doubt, a hate crime. We could call it "Ablecide". Everyday we hear about femicide, but no one talks about this, and the Disabled community deserves as much justice as women. We should be able to protest in diverse ways,  claiming for justice and condemning the ones who play with our lives, based on biased views of the world.*

*Worst part is, in the middle of this pandemic, pioneers of Autistic Self. Advocacy have died: Mel Baggs, nonspeaking Autistic Advocate died a few days ago, with pain and sorrow. Mel was begging for someone to help hir pay hir medicines, but no one answered*

Sie had done a great job in advocating for Autistic Rights. *And many did not know hir job until hir death. Many didn't want to listen to what Sie had to say until Sie left this world*

Because, as Anne Frank said:

“Dead people receive more flowers than the living ones because regret is stronger than gratitude.”

And nobody cares about non-famous people. *Apparently, famous people have more important things to say than non-famous people*

I fear getting the virus and not being brougt back to life. I hope you remember me.
Speaking about Anne Frank, she once said:

Human greatness does not lie in wealth or power, but in character and goodness. People are just people, and all people have faults and shortcomings, but all of us are born with a basic goodness.

This we have to acknowledge.

15 razones por las cuales NO debes de apoyar a Autism $peaks

Bueno... Este Post es importante... Sè que puede haber bastante polémica al contarlo... Pero es necesario. Y hoy que tengo cucharas (ya hablaremos mas adelante de ello) para contarlo, lo haré. Lastimosamente para la mayor parte de la comunidad Autista, Autism $peaks es la màs grande caridad sobre autismo en EUA. Muchos odiamos a esta "caridad". Aquí hay una lista de razones. alerta por euegnesia, filicidio, capacitismo y machismo 1. Muestran a los niños autistas como una carga para las familias, como "fantasmones" y otras analogías TERRIBLEMENTE ESTIGMATIZANTES. Ningún niño se merece que hablen  de ellos como monstros, otra analogía muy usada por esta organización. Aún los que no hablan y/o los que tienen como COMORBIDAD la discapacidad intelectual son personas y sencillamente por eso merecen respeto. 2. Usan etiquetas funcionales.  Debido a ellas, los autistas de "bajo funcionamiento" (generalmente los que no hablan o no pueden valerse por si mismos

15 Reasons to NOT support Autism $peaks.

Well... this post is important… I know it will be highly polemical… But it's necessary. And now that i've got the spoons (we'll talk about it later) to tell it, i will. Unfrtunately for the big mayority of the Autistic Community, Autism $peaks is the greatest Autism Charity in the USA. MOST OF US HATE THIS "CHARITY". And here are a few reasons you should NEVER support them. 1. They show Autistic kids as burdens to their families, as "ghosts" and other REALLY STIGMATIZING analogies. No kid deserves that kind of rethoric (they have even described us as monsters). Even non-vocalizing or COMORBIDLY intellectually disabled Autistics are people and JUST BECAUSE OF THAT deserve as much respect as EVERYONE ELSE. 2. They use functioning labels. Simply, FUNCTIONING LABELS DON'T WORK. Due to them, "low functioning" individuals (commonly those who are non-vocalizing or depend on someone due to COMORBITIES)  are pitied, while "high-functionin

Catra y como el abuso cambia a la gente (¿Le puede pasar a alguien Autista?)

 Alerta de contenido: ABUSO, VIOLACIÓN, SUICIDIO, GENOCIDIO, HOMICIDIO, GUERRA, ABANDONO, TORTURA, TRAICIÓN, MUERTE, secuestro,... Y UN CHANGO DE SPOILERS. Como ya se habrán dado cuenta, soy MEGAFAN de SPOP (She-Ra y las Princesas del Poder)(Si, soy de esas fans que van por la vida pidiendo la #SheRaMovie, ¿ok?). Y he de decir que este reboot de la serie de los 80's me fascina, ya que lidia con temas como trauma, abuso, crímenes de guerra, entre otros bastante complejos, que, para niños de 7 años (quienes ya pueden empezar a ver el show, según la clasificación de Netflix), pueden ser difíciles de detectar, y mucho más de analizar. En el artículo anterior hablé de la "cara buena" del show: Es esperanzador, sobre todo para la gente Discapacitada y LGBT+... Ahora, por más difícil que pueda ser, debo de hablar de la otra cara de la moneda: NOS MUESTRA HISTORIAS DE ABUSO, DE TRAUMA, E INCLUSO, SUTILMENTE, DE TENDENCIAS SUICIDAS/HOMICIDAS/GENOCIDAS.  Hoy hablaremos de quien yo
