Yes! At least YouTube pays attention to violations of it's own ToS. Now, if only we could get blogger to do the same...

You'd think she'd have sympathy for all of those children and adults with Autism who are sexually abused due to their condition. I need not point it out, but "normal" people have a far higher rate of sexually abusing others than those with Asperger's, and those with ASDs as a whole are far more likely to be abused by "normal" people than the other way around.

What I don't understand is, why is this kind of stuff fun? How does this produce epic lulz? If she did these kinds of things offline, she'd get her head dunked in toilets and smashed into lockers. By me. :roll:

From reading about her, she has exceptional problems... there is little one can do other than contain the spew, as you are unlikely to change her and will only fuel the fires of ignorance. Sadly, there is no shortage of people like her in the world... just few as loud or expansive.

Raise awareness for family and friends! :roll:

I empathize for rape victims, but lashing out at an entire spectrum of people isn't emotionally productive. She says autistic people only care about others because of what they can take from them. The same could be said for all people. Everyone has self-interest, otherwise the human species would've died out. Someone once said, I forget who, that there is no act of pure selflessness because we (we, as in humans) are, in some way, being gratified by that act.

Personally, I care about others if they care about me, or if they need to be cared for. Some people I care about because I can relate to their hardships and triumphs. I think the girl who made this video only cares about herself. Instead of empowering other women to be strong and take care, she is dehumanizing a group of largely misunderstood innocents only to empower herself. How selfish.

I find it hard to empathize for her. Rather, I feel pity and disgust for her.


Me too.

I was raped by an NT - does that make all NT men evil?

Jesus, no. It meant one guy was a horrible person, not the collective.

Maybe I should make a video response; then again, it would just give her 'EPIC LULZ' :roll:

YouTube doesn't pay attention to all TOS violations, only some. The rest, it is just as bad as blogger.

This Alexandra really has problems. If she was raped, she has no right to bring Auties into it by insisting they have an "extremely male mind" and therfore are more likely to rape. I don't understand this girl at all. She's violating the rights of Autistic people just as much as someone violates someone's right to their body with rape.

Unfortunately I don't think that Facebook group is going down. I reported it a while back, and I'm pretty sure I wasn't the only one who did, but it still stayed up. I'm as surprised as anyone.

it depends ont he number of flags I beleve. youtube went gay with my profile and removed a vid because it was 'inappropirate' (a girl getting spanked by her grandmother, no nudity or anything). I posted it on 4chan's /b/ and some of them thought it would be funny to flag it...or theyre moralfags

she liked the reactions from those she pisses off and they can't irl kick her ass...or arent motivated enough to. That and shes releasing stress. Or she legitimstely hates autistic people

Alexandra is laboring under a gross misconception of the "extreme male mind" theory. It has nothing to do with running around like a sex fiend.

I do feel sorry for her. Being raped is something noone should go through. However, I stop feeling sorry for her when she posts things like this. She is stirring up hatred, and so any time that an autistic person is yelled at, beaten up, excluded or anything else by someone who has watched her youtube video or been to her myspace group, we can look to her when placing blame.
