If people wrote about other conditions like they do about autism:
BONUS:
(in short, we’re sick and tired of being treated like infants who are shallow and incapable of basic comprehension. we aren’t your circus animals to parade around and cluck at. don’t think we’re “too stupid” to know what you’re doing. we know exactly what you’re doing. stop infantilizing us. you’re the ones who are really acting like babies.)
This Facebook page and I have been exchanging snide comments for a while and they’re super petty and pretentious and belittle everyone who gives them one star ratings but this is just laughable they’re patting themselves on the back about how super diverse NASA is and waves around a number that’s 34% like I wanted to believe it was satire at first but no they’re serious

Applebees is a bit high-class for this post.
I can’t tell whether or not this is satire or an entirely serious millennial

Elizabeth Taylor’s eloquent and powerful speech while accepting the
Vanguard Award at the 11th annual GLAAD Media Awards in 2000. After her dear friend and co-star Rock Hudson announced that he had AIDS prior to his passing in 1985
(the first high-profile celebrity to do so), Elizabeth—against great
opposition during the fear-based AIDS hysteria and stigmatization
prevalent in the 1980s—immediately organized a fundraising benefit to
raise money for AIDS research (she later stated that
she had the phone hung up on her repeatedly
while trying to enlist the help of other celebrities with the benefit,
and that some people thought she was “crazy” for getting involved with
the cause). After Rock passed away on October 2nd, 1985, she also
organized his memorial service and soon after became the co-founder
(alongside Dr.
Mathilde Krim) of the first AIDS research center amfAR. Her separate Elizabeth Taylor AIDS Foundation
was established in 1991 with the specific focus of providing nutritious
meals (as well as medical and financial assistance) to people living
with HIV and AIDS. She also lobbied the U.S. congress to contribute more money for AIDS research and education,
devoting the last twenty-six years of her life to the cause. After
Elizabeth passed away in 2011 at the age of 79,
a large portion of the
$115,932,000
raised at the Christie’s auction of her legendary jewelry collection was
bequeathed to her charity in order to continue providing the services
and assistance she believed were important in perpetuity.
"Vaccinations cause autism so I’m not getting my child vaccinated"
Translation: “I would rather have a dead child than an autistic child”
Or maybe “I would rather stay at home taking care of my child for two weeks of measles than making my child risk autism for his entire life”
Fun fact: vaccinations don’t cause autism. You can’t fucking “catch” autism. You’re either born with it or you’re not, Jesus fucking Christ.
“We didn’t used to have all this ADHD and Autism and stuff” I think what you mean is that people used to go undiagnosed and get absolutely no help and were forced to suffer through their life because they had no support or understanding whatsoever but sure, Janice, pretend my generation invented Autism.
My grandfather was legit diagnosed with ADHD at the age of about 80 and he was like “OH”
“we didn’t used to have all this cancer and septicemia and stuff, people just randomly dropped dead because the gods were angry.”

I thought this was a joke but wow no Trump really actually did threaten to shut down Twitter because it “silences conservative voices,” a claim inspired by the fact that Twitter attached a fact-check to a couple of his tweets.

People in the notes are saying they’re not sure if this is satire or not.
It very much is, and if you haven’t seen it before, it’s also referencing the famous ‘Gotcha’ comic by the same artist that riffs on obnoxious argumentative fallacies:
Kudos to the artist for making this asshat so fucking punchable that I actually want to yeet my phone to smash his face
