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 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...

What's the Social Model Of Disability? (I'M NOT "DIFFERENTLY ABLED")

"Asking for basic rights isn't too much to ask" -Diane Guerrero This is gonna be one of the most controversial articles i have ever done. But i've gotta be brave enough to do it. They asked for it in school, it's important for me and, as Pippi Longstockings said once when they asked why she walked backwards "The question is, why not?" Recently, the word "differently abled" is being introduced when talking about people who, becausse of X or Y, NEED ACOMMODATIONS. BUT I THINK IT'S AN EUPHEMISM, AND IT CAN BE EXPLAINED THRUGH THE SOCIAL MODEL OF DISABILITY. This model explains that IT'S SOCIETY WHO DISABLES US, EVEN MORE THAN OUR DIAGNOSES. AND IT'S SIMPLY BECAUSE THEY DON'T LIKE OUR STYLE. So, what acommodations does an Autistic like me need? Basically, our sensory processing is different. Evven, with background noise, i won't be able to hear you. You gotta speak LOUD, SLOW AND CLEAR, so i can undertand you, or at lea...

Cosas que ME CAGAN de lxs doctorxs

 Literal, CADA VEZ CREO MENOS EN EL SISTEMA MÉDICO.  Honestamente hay muchas veces que hacen cosas cuestionables SIN SIQUIERA PENSARLO O SABERLO.  Me tratan como a una niña. Me interrumpen cuando quiero decir algo. Tratan de adivinar mis pensamientos y de hablar por las minorías a las que yo pertenezco y ELLOS NO. Incluso creen que debo respetar a mayorías intolerantes.  En una ocasión, yo le hablé a mi terapeuta de que me disgustaba que me hicieran ir a misa a pesar de ser pagana (pronto lo hablaré más a detalle). Ella me replicó:  "¿Si escuchaste lo de los dos sacerdotes jesuitas?" ¿Les digo la verdad? ME VALE MADRES. ME VALE MADRES QUE ASESINEN A DOS, Y SOLO DOS, MIEMBROS DE UNA RELIGIÓN QUE MASACRÓ A LA MÍA. En serio, que se jodan... Uno cosecha lo que siembra. Y ELLOS SEMBRARON UNA GRAN INTOLERANCIA HACIA OTRAS RELIGIONES. LA VENGANZA ES DULCE. EL PERDÓN SOLO AYUDA A LOS AGRESORES. JAMÁS, LO JURO POR LOS DIOSES, RESPETARÉ O PERDONARÉ A LA GENTE CRISTIANA.
