This is not the first time I heard the name Michael Savage. I'm pretty sure I heard of this mental case before, spouting some nonsense that sounded like it came out of a Neurodiversity textbook.
There are lots of people who are very angry at Savage, and rightly so. However, I won't be joining any protests against him. The fact that I seem to have linked his name with neuroinsanity, but can't remember exactly why, makes me suspicious.
When dealing with the tremendous propaganda effort that has been engineered by Pharma and the AAP, I have to wonder what they might have to gain from this publicity. I think one has to figure out the effect on public opinion that a major protest effort against this guy will produce.
Here's how I'm looking at this whole thing. The most obnoxious thing Savage said was that people with autism were faking it. To those of us with autistic kids, this is obviously not true. However, we are losing badly in a propaganda war against a large group of liars who ARE pretending to be autistic.
We have the well known fakers like Jim Sinclair, Donna Williams, Amanda Baggs and Ari Ne'eman. Then we have a group of 20,000 fakers led by Alex Plank over at Wrong Planet. (I don't really believe that there are that many lunatics there. I suspect Plank has found a way to bump up those numbers and I'm sure he has "records" to prove it.)
So, what does it gain for sane people to protest against a mental case for calling autistic people frauds? In fact, almost all of the people who can speak for themselves and are on the autistic spectrum ARE frauds if they call themnselves autistic when their self-diagnosis (in many cases) is actually Asperger's?
Do we gain anything by protesting solely on the basis of this guy calling autistics frauds? How does the propaganda machine use that? How come only one idiot from Neuroinsanity has written a blog post about this? One would think hundreds of neuronitwits would be up on arms about it, much as they were when NYU launched their excellent billboard campaign describing the true horror of autism, and as they were when Cliff Shoemaker induced all of the neurodiverse rodents to scurry to their computers to support their leader, Seidel.
That didn't happen here with Savage and that is an excellent reason to be very suspicious. You see, neurodiverse bloggers don't just write things independently like normal people. They have a game plan, and they use trick plays just like a football team. While some of them are doing character assassinations on prominent people, others play the roles of mindless housewives who write girl talk about what cute things their children did today. These are the mundane blogs that give Neuroinsanity the appearance of being composed of real parents. And, of course, they have recruited a number of extremely stupid women who have been duped into playing this role for them, and a few men too.
I'm still wondering what sane people have to gain by protesting Savage but I think I'm in the ballpark in my guess about what Pharma and their shills at Neuroinsanity have to gain. I think they have dealt this hand so that they will be in position to have us make the first wager while they sit back and watch what everyone else does, a tremendous advantage in poker, and propaganda.
When sane people have press conferences to protest Savage, they probably won't get much coverage, or they'll show a few angry mothers carrying signs and screaming if they can. Then when that is all done, I think Pharma will play their hand by putting Ari Ne'eman on TV, maybe Amanda Baggs and perhaps some other fraud who has a PhD and diagnosed himself with Asperger's as examples of autistic people who were offended. The general public will see the same thing that sane parents of autistic kids see, well spoken young adults who were belittled by a shock jock.
What will that do for public opinion about the horrors of autism? It will confirm exactly what Savage said, that people with autism are a bunch of frauds.
In this election year, that will not be lost on the voting public and our chances of making autism an issue in the campaigns will disappear. People who have not seen severe autism will have the image of Ari Ne'eman in a suit and tie, speaking eloquently, and misleading the nation about the horrors of autism. How far will that go towards making the public feel good about cutting funding for autism? Who thinks Joe Public will give a damn if anyone bothers to cure autism when they see Ne'eman standing there looking like nothing's wrong with him?
And then, Kirby and Olmsted will support Savage's first amendment rights just like they did for Seidel, who probably engineered this whole plan, and really make us look like a bunch of fringe lunatics.
I was reading the chatroom at a recent AutCom gathering where Ari Ne'eman, Alex Plank and a few other idiots were talking about following the lead of the queers in how they protested and drew attention to themselves to gain support for allowing them to practice their deviant behavior. It seems Michael Savage has given young Ari and Alex the perfect opportunity here. I wonder why they aren't making any noise about this. I'd hate to see their AutCom planning session on tactics go to waste....maybe they won't miss this opportunity.
So, that's why I won't be protesting.

Wow, you're making sense for once (doesn't last long)
However, we are losing badly in a propaganda war against a large group of liars who ARE pretending to be autistic.
And the difference is...?
I bet you haven't asked THEIR parents.
In fact, almost all of the people who can speak for themselves and are on the autistic spectrum ARE frauds if they call themnselves autistic when their self-diagnosis (in many cases) is actually Asperger's?
Look up the definition of the word SPECTRUM!!!
Thank you, liars, for proving my point. You who have been duped into playing a propaganda role for Pharma can type, read and write while kids with autism can't do that and never will. That is called obfuscation and that is what Kathleen Seidel trained you to do.
Just as Kevin Leitch trains his daughter like a monkey, Seidel has trained you idiots to abuse low functioning autistic children with half-truths. You'r fortunate that Olmsted and Kirby are dumb enough to support Seidel's right to abuse our kids this way and that the majority of the "mercury militia" are stupid enough to follow them instead of bashing your heads in.
What about Droopy? She's definitely autistic and very articulate.
Bullet,
Yes, Droopy is autistic, one of the very rare few who have progressed from low functioning to being able to communicate. Since she does not support abusing autistic children, she has been banned from Wrong Planet and Aspies for Freedom where a bunch of liars are carrying out Seidel's game plan.
Will Dan Olmsted and David Kirby Support Michael Savage?
Sounds like your logical (rational?) mind has already decided the answer.
Was it logical for Olmsted and Kirby to support Seidel? They certainly become hypocrites if they don't support Savage, don't they.
Do you wonder why I don't want these guys speaking for my son? If they still have half a brain between them, they will not say one word about this. But, that won't stop me from reminding them that they seriously fucked up.
You missed my point. Perhaps I wasn't literal enough.
Anon,
I got your sarcasm. But, after listening to Savage tonight, I see that it was some nitwits who took his quotes out of context and that Savage has the right idea about autism. So, your cowardly heroes over at AOA are irrelevant on this matter.
Now, if you have something to say, go ahead.
I don't expect I'll get an apology
I find your comments against my nephew, Ari Ne'Eman insulting and infuriating. Ari and the other people you have mentioned are to be applauded for their efforts, not called frauds. Do your research before you speak. Maybe you should get educated.
Jeff,
If I had a nephew like Ari, I'd punch his old man in the head for raising him to be a liar. Your nephew is a little prick who is obscuring the truth about the horror that my son endures every God damn day. Ari Ne'eman is just as much a fraud as Amanda Baggs and every other asshole who calls themselves autistic when they aren't. You should be ashamed to admit he's part of your family.
