[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I feel like a lot of people are also overlooking intellectual disability here. Like yeah, of course an autistic person with an intellectual disability is going to be very different and have a very different life than one without an intellectual disability. Not that all non-speaking autistic people have intellectual disabilities-- many have normal or high intelligence too-- but it's just weird to ignore intellectual differences and act ljke it's the fault of the autism diagnosis not to capture it.[/quote] Of course it’s the “fault” of the diagnosis. The diagnosis is a human-created category that is supposed to be useful. [/quote]
