ADS Rights

Hello everyone,

I have a question for the community. As someone with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), I have noticed that people with ASD often don't stand up for themselves like other minorities do. I wonder why this is the case?

We see people from other minorities fighting for their rights, making their voices heard, and advocating for themselves. However, I feel that this is not the case for individuals with ASD. We often keep to ourselves, avoid conflict, and are generally less assertive.

I believe that it is important for people with ASD to stand up for themselves and to advocate for their rights. This is not only important for our own well-being, but also for the betterment of society as a whole. We can't expect change to happen if we don't speak up take action that inpacts the system which keeps us in these chains ?

So, why do you think people with ASD don't stand up for themselves like other minorities? And what can we do to change this? I would love to hear your thoughts and opinions on this topic.
