All around the world, many autistic people are treated as objects and are still thought to have no value in society. Autistics are treated nowhere near as well as neurotypicals are treated. While you may think humanity has evolved in every aspect, the opposite is true. While people continue to create new technology and vehicles and other things, they haven't focused as much on important societal issues like mental inequality. Even in large countries like America, mental inequality is still a major issue, and it continues to impact more and more autistics each day. Everyone deserves to be treated as equals, and it's absolutely ridiculous that we still have to say this after evolving this much. Many of you still continue to ridicule and insult me for this, but I don't think you understand how serious of a topic this is. Being harassed, treated lower than a neurotypical colleague, always wondering whenever alone whether you might be abducted and mistreated; these are all just a few examples of what autistics go through. Unless we all are treated as equals, these fears will continue to haunt us autistics and could end up becoming our reality. Thank you for reading. Your friend, ~ Twelve
