stand with "Neuroclastic" site's fight for Osime Brown against global apartheid cruelty

Worse than Prison: immigration detention could kill Osime Brown.

Neuroclastic is an awful sounding word I hope won't catch on, + name for a site. Wish it had defied our scene's policers of language, not let them push it to change to this name.

Far more important than that, extremely morally important + pressing, it is trying to act as the spectrumite scene's focus to fight against global apartheid's arbitrary racist destruction of a spectrumite life. Namely, the atrocity of deportating to Jamaica an autistic man who has no connections or sources of support there, has lived in Britain since age 4.

When folks are deported, they are usually taken through customs at the destination country and then left at the airport. From there, most often, it’s on them to fend for themselves. In this case an autistic young man with high support needs, PTSD, and a severe heart condition. In advance of which, getting moved to an immigration detention prison on Oct 7. Read the article.

Evil people habitually

• - are noncommittal
• - use the word "unfortunately"
• - talk rhetorically of reality
• - call moral issues grey
• - say they would rather blot them out of thought

careless talk of aggression is itself aggressive

This further article on the Matthew Rushin case neuroclastic.com/2020/06/10/matthew-rushin-and-the-virginia-beach-police-department/ is on THE DANGER OF INTERPRETING AUTISTIC SOCIAL PRESENTATION AS AGGRESSIVE BECAUSE IT'S NOT SUBMISSIVE, and the writer's efforts to research the too little that US police practices have done about that.

BUT IT IS ACTUALLY A WRONG THAT AUTISTICS CAN DO TO EACH OTHER TOO. It features in the foul play politics within the autistic scene. Real aggression also features in that, but the point is there is a duty to analyse and back up WITH DETAILED REASONING any accusation of aggression. Unless it stands up to rational reasoning it is a medical abuse to maintain the accusation.

This makes it A CRIME, a violation of safe support, for anyone in our scene to accuse another of aggression then to stop answering them then to block/cut off contact without explaining or defending the accusation in detail.

success: Scotland is an uncomfortable place to promote ABA

ABA, Applied Behaviour Analysis,the personally controlling penalty-based approach to trying to remove autistic traits actions and behaviours, especially from kids. It leaves a trail of post-traumatic stress, it creates anguish by trying to prevent the person's inbuilt being and limitations. So the autistic self-voicing and self-advocacy movement holds it to be an abuse, fughts is against it as a major moral anger.

Today 5-3-19 we took part in showing that we care enough and get others to care enough, that Scotland is big problem and no-no for ABA' proponents to bring promotional events to. A day workshop promoting child ABA, by "Carbone Clinic", was hosted at Dalmahoy country club hotel, off the road to Livingston, but that venue was successfully shown that the campaign issues for kids' safety mattered, and amicably hosted a protest demo of autistic adults too. Called by national group Autistic Inclusive Meets, and folks came from Clydeside and even from London for it. We showed the attenders an all-day presence got most of them flyered and some of them talking. Showing them there is a big concern from the voices of spectrumite adults, that approaches bssec on personal change do damage and don't work.

ABA is not getting promoted here without our facts heard. As we handed out:

ABA is a conversion therapy. Conversion therapies such as against gay and transgender have been banned in several countries worldwide. Sources that this therapy can cause PTSD in both autistic kids + adults subjectec to it:
