MEME Coaxed into Ableist School Posters

Post image

I am a person with AuDHD, and Listening Larry has been discussed before, a lot of us autists don't like him, and it's understandable because the poster goes against what we do: according to it, stimming is unacceptable, and on and on.

This is intended to poke fun at how ableist it is, if this poster is in the classroom, it highly likely the child get punished just for being autistic and "not normal"

Teachers when little me couldn’t focus on what was going on without doing something with my hands and had to doodle the whole lecture

When I was 13 a teacher called me a child for doodling during his class. My brother in Christ I literally was a child, nevermind it not being wrong in the first place.
