And the response to this is to punish the autistic people who happen to be white by cutting funding? Isn't that the very epitome of racism? Being judged by your race?
Didn't you get the memo? It's socially acceptable to be racist against white people. Heck, most white people seem to be racist against white people.
Sexism seems to be acceptable as long as it's against men too. I've really only seen this situation once, but it was so blatant, it was disturbing. Fortunately one of the perpetrators has already been relieved of her duties at the company I work for. Unfortunately she already fired some really good people in favor or promoting people with similar body parts that always agreed with her.
It seems like some persons who are part of a group that is typically discriminated against don't understand their own behavior... when they are discriminated against others.
Discrimination is discrimination in my opinion. I don't think anybody is immune or has the right to discriminate because they are part of a group that has been discriminated against. It's like someone that abuses children assuming it's fine because they were abused themselves.
