@dramypsyd @actuallyautistic #StopTheShock & #ABAIsAbuse were very prominent & railed against in the autistic community over on X-itter when I was there. We really do need to keep this pressure on.

These abusive monsters have managed to get ABA labelled as, "The Gold Standard for Autism treatment" I shit you not.

Studying autism for my master's we were introduced to ABA by some vicious little sociopath who clearly hated autistic people.

I was the only autistic there & I was the only one who raised an issue & challenged it. Every other student had autistic kids & they didn't bat an eyelid.

Call it out. Get pissed off. Shame every practitioner & apologist.
