I feel betrayed whenever someone I respected starts calling themselves that puzzle piece label (sh.itjust.works)

You're literally justifying the 20 years of abuse I went through, and the lifetimes of abuse unluckier people go through since they weren't lucky enough to live a real life. You can't be for human rights and continue to contribute to the reason why children are abused into becoming nothing and living mediocre lives until they kill themselves.

A disorder whose definition varies that much cannot possibly be real. If it's such a big infinite stupid spectrum then nobody has it. All of these children are suffering from something with an actual name and actual treatment, not a vague word that nothing can be done about, and CPTSD as a result of growing up less human than a cockroach.

By calling yourself that crap you're contributing to several people being abandoned by society until they die. Was the extra special clout really worth it?

No obligation to answer, obviously, but... what are you talking about? What is "that puzzle piece label?"

The symbol for autism is, I believe, a puzzle piece. That’s how I read it at least.
