She was crippled by polio and unable to walk for many many many years of her life. My aunt wanted polio reasearched and prevented and cured as much as anyone. It has been prevented by vaccine. There was no cure for people that were crippled by it. In my mind, it's a valid comparison. I personally haven't done any research on autism. I'll just leave it at that, with the caveat that people need to look at the bigger picture. You’re going to double down on this?? REALLY? Ummm you can’t look at the bigger picture unless you know what the hell you’re talking about. You’ve already offended an autistic user. You don’t have much chance of offending a POLIO victim on GGD. Why? Because you can eradicate INFECTIOUS DISEASE, but not people. I really cannot believe you’ve doubled down on this. Or said it in the first place for that matter! Shame on you. Comparing autism to an infectious disease is so ignorant and dangerous, and is crossing the line into hate speech. And I’m not here for it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you need to understand a pineapple to eat a banana? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
