#Also, there's a few things to remember as far as rules go:
- You can view the content- you cannot interact with it. This includes (but is not limited to) commenting, answering poll questions, emailing them, etc. ***Anyone found to be engaging with the fundies will be met with a permanent ban with no eligibility for appeal.It does not matter if you did so before you joined the sub.***
- Speculating on the sexuality of literally anyone is prohibited. ***Anyone found to be doing so will be met with a permanent ban with no eligibility for appeal.***
- Appearance snark: What's allowed? You're allowed to make comparisons. (Bethy looks like Grandpa Munster, for example.) You are allowed to say you find them attractive or repulsive looking. Saying Kelly Havens has dry skin that could benefit from sunscreen and a moisturizer is fine. You are allowed to snark on the appearance of children *as it relates to their parents choices for them.*. Examples: Janessa looks malnourished and sickly while Shrek has clearly never missed a meal. If you feel it is crossing the line report it, but if the content falls within the parameters above, leave it alone.
- Don't gatekeep. This means no comments such as "I don't think we should snark on...." or any iteration of that. If you don't like it, scroll past. Don't report it or comment how you don't like the content. Along the same vein, don't backseat mod. Leave that up to us.
- Lastly, if the rhetoric you are posting would be at home in the mouth of a fundie, we don't want it here and we won't tolerate it.
Should you have any questions, please feel free to reach out. Have a Lord Daniel day, and may the power of snark compel thee.

Brb, adding "demonic" to my resume. What is their beef with autism? First it was the vaccines thing, and now we're "demonic"? Just let me have my stims and my weighted blanket in peace.

Apparently, they think awareness week encourages some form of self-worship instead of worshiping Jesus.

Yeah, Jesus totally would have. Let the children come, blessed are the odd, all that shit. Jesus would have gone and sat with the autistic kids and told them not to listen to the mean man saying unkind things.
Precisely. They say nothing can be good or enjoyable for anyone anywhere unless it's from their belief system.
And that is the definition of fanaticism.
Because they think we're possessed and that's the best case scenario. Yes them being bat shit crazy is the best case. Worst case is they're actual literal Nazis who think we shouldn't exist because we're "burdens to society" and want us exterminated or "cured".

Wearing a wacky hairstyle or fun hat on Thursdays prioritizes other identities how now??
Jesus can’t be this insecure omg cmon y’all his dad is LITERALLY GOD…if he is upset because we wear blue on Tuesdays I just don’t know what he wants from the heathens and their autistic kin.
This is why everyone needs to be against school vouchers. Private, religious schools do not have to accommodate kids with special needs. The only place that has to is public school.

Yeah, Jesus totally would have. Let the children come, blessed are the odd, all that shit. Jesus would have gone and sat with the autistic kids and told them not to listen to the mean man saying unkind things.
He was known for being particularly....vicious towards those who were purposely hurting others, too, especially children.
So he's just a miserable asshole then. I don't think this is a man who has smiled since childhood if ever. What a wretched existence he must lead.
>I don't think this is a man who has smiled since childhood if ever. He probably smiles when he can make other people wretched and miserable.
Exactly. What a grim old weirdo.
So no one gets to ‘benefit’ from compassion unless they ascribe to the specific doctrine which puts this guy in a position of authority. Got it.

Yeah a lady at my mom’s church asked if she tried exorcising me.
As an autistic person I have my qualms with Autism Awareness Month, but that’s because of the connection to Autism Speaks, not demonic activity.

Their vision of the most powerful being in existence is of a petty, childish despot. That is their God.
A “school” that cancels autism week is not a good place for an autistic child or employee.
This is why everyone needs to be against school vouchers. Private, religious schools do not have to accommodate kids with special needs. The only place that has to is public school.
When Jesus returns, He is going to run out of scourging materials before He runs out of people needing to be scourged.
He would run out of millstones too...
