You Can Die Of Autism

One of the most common bullshit lines espoused by members of neurodiversity is that autism is not a disease because you can't die of it. Therefore, they argue that autism shouldn't be cured. Like pretty much everything that neurodiversity says, that is a lie. Not only does a disease not necessarily have to be fatal, but there have been numerous cases of people dying because of their autism. There was a boy in Canada who froze to death after he wandered away from his home due to his autism. There was another boy in Georgia who got run over by a car because his autism made him run out into traffic. Even medical deaths can be autism-related. Many autistic people suffer from epileptic seizures which can be fatal. That is how John Travolta's son died. Those with Asperger's syndrome are not exempt either. Many of them suffer clinical depression due to their disease and take their own lives. Burt Bacharach's daughter Nikki took her own life due to Asperger's syndrome. What Neurodiversity does is that they say bullshit, like they wish it was true, and then hope that is magically becomes true. We must put an end to that. Autism is a fatal disease, and it must be eradicate from this earth via a cure.

Has Retardation Entered The Mainstream?

The other day, I came across a cheesy flirt line on the website myYearbook which said, "Are your parents retarded? Cause you damn sure are special!" This made me think about a number of things. First it made me think about how pissed off all the NDs would be, but I don't really give a fuck about that. It also made me think of using the word "special" as a euphemism for "retarded," which was initially intended to soften the blow but has now become equally pejorative. But most importantly, it made me realize how mainstream, and frankly accepted, that mental retardation has become. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said about autism, which is why we must cure it. Whereas retards are seen as "indigo children," autistics and Aspergians are rightly seen as scum of the earth and not worth anybody's dime, which is why a cure must be found pronto. Even now, when a normal person asks me, "Dude, what the fuck is wrong with you?" I say that I am mentally retarded instead of autistic or Aspergian, because it is more tolerated and normal people are more likely to understand it. On a side note, I'm well aware that the use of the word "special" in the myYearbook message is actually a double entendre, as the flirty use is positive. But this proves not only the normalization of retardation but that the use of "special" to mean "retarded" as so commonplace that people would automatically understand its use in a double entendre. I wrote a previous post about the word "retard" becoming mainstream, but I guess now the same has happened to retardation as a whole.

Two Years Old!

I can't believe I've been writing this blog for two years now. Where has time gone? A lot has happened since I went online back in 0'10, most notably that I lost my virginity last June. While my life still sucks, I will never give up the fight for a cure for autism. I'm in college now, but that sucks so bad that it's already starting to remind me of my one semester in high school, and those were the worst five months of my life. Each time that Neurodiversity has tried to silence me I have only come back stronger, and I am already starting to emerge victorious. I do plan to drop out of college in June once my semester ends, because I cannot handle college anymore. I have no idea what I'll do after that, but perhaps I'll work in a fast food restaurant. My autism needs to be cured so that I can have a better life. Any member of Neurodiversity who says otherwise is lying to you. Anyway, happy 2nd birthday to me, and I want all curebies to keep on fighting.

Autistic Lady Banned From Having Sex

In England, there was a recent case where a 29-year-old autistic woman was ordered by the court to stop having sex. It was found that she was mentally incompetent and lacked the capacity to give informed consent. The order was applied for by her mother who had to raise the four children she gave birth to that were products of homeless people she met on the street. At one point she was hospitalized in the psych ward where she tried to rape the male patients. She is also mentally retarded in addition to being autistic. I say this because this is an interesting dilemma when it comes to human rights. On the one hand, the right to have sex is guaranteed by the UN, so this might set a dangerous precedent when it comes to the rights of autistic people. On the other hand, everyone needs to be kept safe, and this person is essentially being protected from herself. There were other things the judge said that were quite puzzling. He did not rule that this lady could never get married, despite the fact that one needs to have sex to do so. His reasoning was that the woman could one day learn how to behave herself. However, he gave no provision that his current ruling could ever be lifted, which would defeat the whole purpose. Also, since she has been ruled to be incapable of giving consent, any man who has sex with her could be charged with statutory rape. There is only one other case like this in the history of England, but it involved a pedophile who had no known mental disabilities. The sad thing is, though, that if this lady had been cured of her autism, none of this would ever have happened. Neurodiversity needs to realize that autism is a bad disease, and stop lobbying against a cure in the face of cases like this. On a side note, I received an email from my good friend Jonathan Mitchell about autism-related tattoos. As I have previously stated, I desperately want a tattoo but cannot currently get one due to my fear of needles. Jonathan said that he still doesn't want a tattoo, but I do think that is a new and exciting way to spread autism awareness.

Occupy Neurodiversity

Among autistic people, there are about 1% who support "neurodiversity" and don't want to be cured. The other 99%, like me, think autism is a horrible disease and feel that a cure is necessary. Yet why is it that only the top 1% control everything? Between Big Pharma as well as the US government, they choose to fund neurodiversity to give everyone a false perception of autism, despite the fact that 99% of autistic people want to be cured. Unlike the Occupy Wall Street people, who are capable of voicing their displeasure, over 80% of autistic people are also mentally retarded and thus cannot adequately express their desire for a cure. Neurodiversity exploits this, and uses it to say that these poor nonverbal autistic people do not want to be cured, when anyone with eyes could see that that is pure bullshit. What can we do to change this? Well, I am starting a movement called Occupy Neurodiversity, where we will show this people who's really in charge and what autism really is.

It's Almost 2012

In 2011, my New Year's resolution was to lose my virginity. That happened, so I will not be committing suicide, at least not right now. However, much to my surprise, losing my virginity did not magically turn my life around. My life still sucks balls due to my autism, and I still need a cure. Both relationships I had this year failed, and only one of them resulted in sex. I made the humungous mistake of telling one of my girlfriends about my autism, but ironically it was the same one who had sex with me. She seemed fine with it at first, but then used it as an excuse to dump me. It is a mistake I have vowed never to repeat. My long-distance girlfriend did not know of my autism, but then she disappeared to Texas and just stopped calling me. I don't see myself having another relationship anytime soon, because I'm very severely autistic and I will likely never have sex again. I don't have a resolution for 2012 since I lost my virginity in 2011 and that was all I really wanted to accomplish. All I can do is hope that it is at least a better year, which seems pretty hard. Some things are getting better, though. I'm now learning to drive and I plan to start college in February, so we'll see where that leads.

The Difference Between Raffi And Luciano Pavarotti

In 1994, when I was 2 years old, I was watching the TV special "Encore: The Three Tenors" live from Dodger Stadium at my apartment in New Haven. My favorite singer at the time was Raffi, who I'd recently seen in concert and booed, as I referred to previously. While Raffi was a man with dark hair and a full beard, he really did not look much like Luciano Pavarotti. They were of different ethnicities (Raffi is Armenian while Pavarotti was Italian), and Raffi is thin and scrawny while Pavarotti was fat and sweaty. They even performed completely different genres of music: Raffi is a children's folk singer while Pavarotti was an opera tenor. Nonetheless, when the TV special came on, I looked at Luciano Pavarotti and immediately said, "That's Raffi!" The reason for this is that my autism makes me completely face-blind, which means that I have absolutely no idea what people look like. I figured that since both Raffi and Pavarotti had a beard, that they must be the same person. My parents simply explained to me that they were different people, but if they had focused their time when I was that age on curing my autism instead of just boasting about how "smart" I supposedly was, I would've been spared that horrific embarrassment. Once I accepted the truth, I learned that the other Three Tenors were named Jose Carreras and Placido Domingo, and I later learned that their conductor was named Zubin Mehta. Unfortunately, Luciano Pavarotti died in 2007 at the age of 71, thus putting an end to The Three Tenors.
