Gonna put this here. It's from the FAB (Fuckwit Autism Bollocks)....

-------------------------------------------------------------

"Brief Commentary: Once again, sigh, it's time to play "pin the label
on the dorky", thanks to the idyll musings of Professor Michael Fitzgerald
(and "autism experts" of the like.) [read sarcasm] In the service of
promoting silly books that trivialize autism, the blurring of Asperger's
with the rest of autism spectrum does everyone a disservice."

I think that seeing Lenny Schafer as a reasonable human being does the rest of humanity a diservice. Doesn't mean I'm right; and what that prick said there isn't right, either :D

"Asperger's
categorically sits on top of the high-functioning end of the autism
spectrum."
      
Not necessarily. He hasn't seen the most recent video of Christopher Gillberg (by far a bigger and more knowledgable expert on autism that ANYBODY in Schafer's gang), who says things that would definitely go against this idea presented here.

"But if anything defines autism, it is NOT being high functioning
anything."

Wrong. Only a fuckwit could come up with a dumb statement like that one!

"This is not to say that Asperger Syndrome is not a serious matter,
but that it is more different than the rest of autism than it is similar."

Wrong again. The clinical evidence is clear on this, as Gillberg points out in the video.

"Perhaps the time has come to refer to Asperger's as Asperger's, and autism
as autism."

Nope. Time to rid the planet of the Schafer gang: no finer cause on the planet!

"In the name of autism awareness clarity, I'd even take it a step
further: the Asperger's label ought to be kicked off the spectrum
altogether."

Thank fuck that Schafer has no qualifications or he'd be stupid enough to do that!

"Einstein, Yeats and Darwin were no more autistic than Hellen
Keller was a pinball wizard. -LS."

Lenny Schafer is a Nazi, da-da-da-da-daaaa-da-daa-daa-daaaaa!

He is also more interested in making inflamatory statements than advancing issues in a proper and appropriate manner.

God fuck him.

Sideways!
