For years, authorities and others in positions of power have made it very clear that autistic people’s experiences wouldn’t be taken seriously without a diagnosis.
And now, in some quarters at least, we're the ones being blamed for overloading the system 🤷♀️

“[…] Dear Dame #UtaFrith, and all other like-minded people, that’s how big it is. This is a genie that you will not be able to stuff back in the bottle. It seems sometimes that you have all the power. You don’t.”
