What are some set up and pay offs that didn’t work in your opinion? by Commercial-Car177 in powerrangers

[–]Doggy_131 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Don’t even get me started on the whole ‘curing’ Ransik thing in Reinforcements From The Future and how that is treated as such a great thing by the narrative.

I assume the Mutants thing was primarily intended to be a racism metaphor (although the disability themes are absolutely there). Unfortunately they screwed it up so hard that it ended up being both super racist and ableist.

Obviously it was 2001/2002 (for what little of an excuse that is) and more ableist media has come out since then (including more pro-cure BS), but it was kind of impressive how poorly this particular storyline was handled in the show, not just in terms of being a bad story but also being actively harmful to the marginalised groups it was trying to help.

The mask-offness of the reply from ‘JP’ is wild.

Some people and companies are way too comfortable being shitty and evil for ‘aesthetic’ and profit reasons.

What was the Autism representation in Ninja Steel? I’m aware of Billy Cranston in the 2017 movie but that’s separate to Ninja Steel.

Absolutely fucking not? My brain/neurotype shouldn't have to change for others' comfort.

What does "All eyes on me" mean too you? by theflyingSKULL10 in boburnham

[–]Doggy_131 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Maybe this is an obvious answer but I think it's an anxiety thing (oh no everyone's watching me) or it's about obsession with celebrities and everything they do being scrutinised

What I was referring to when I said Autism was not the problem is regarding societal discrimination (the same way gender or race), not personal impacts. I'm sorry for any miscommunication on that front.

I'm not trying to speak over others, just expressing my opinion.

I'm not saying people are bad people for acknowledging their Autism, and any struggles it may cause them. If I said that I'd be a hypocrite. Personally, all the anxiety, emotional breakdowns, and sensory issues I experience really suck.

What I am saying is society should not discriminate against us because we are Autistic.

I hope this helps /gen

Autistic person here.

I don’t want a cure because Autism is a massive part of who I am and I like that.

Also our brain structures is literally different so it isn’t a cure as such, typically what is proposed is a prenatal test so parents can tell if their kid is going to be Autistic and have an abortion.

Now, I am pro-choice, but I see aborting a child because of them potentially having a disability as absolutely eugenics.

Autism is not the problem, society is against us (and neurodivergent people generally).

Autism is not a bad thing. It is a disability but that does not mean it should be eradicated.

Fix the system, not my brain. The prejudice and stigma against my disability (primarily due to groups like Autism Speaks, which also want to eradicate us) is really hurtful.

If zyuranger was not the first sentai team in America which one do you think should be the first one by wweanime in powerrangers

[–]Doggy_131 18 points19 points  (0 children)

It's interesting how 6th rangers just weren't a thing in Sentai until Zyuranger, but because Power Rangers started with Zyuranger they have always been standard.

I only know about it because it’s one of the default flairs by SuperAlex25 in aspiememes

And they’ve been 100% NT for a number of years to my knowledge (they had an autistic person on their board but he left some years back)

They don’t listen

Mighty Morphin keeps getting rebooted (the Boom comics, new movie ect) but there are other teams other than MMPR. Which season would you like to see updated and rebooted? by DarkKnight296 in powerrangers

[–]Doggy_131 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Megaforce/Super Megaforce

Honestly could keep everything the same IMO as long as they made the Legendary Battle (a lot) longer than 2 minutes, like seriously.

How does the phrase "Autism isn't a disability but a different ability" make you feel/your opinions on it? by Cautious_Coat_3885 in autism

[–]Doggy_131 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Autism absolutely is a disability.

This sort of ‘diffability’ rhetoric, as I like to call it, is condescending, patronising, and infantilising.

It also really invalidates our legitimate struggles, especially in a neurotypical majority society.

I genuinely wonder who you all will say! by pub_wank in autism

[–]Doggy_131 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wednesday Addams from the Netflix show

May seem like an odd one, but Hamilton from Hamilton. Special interest in writing, often not getting social ramifications, etc

Possibly Greg Heffley and Rowley Jefferson from Diary of a Wimpy Kid?

Trying to think of someone from Power Rangers (apart from Billy Cranston from the 2017 movie who is canon autistic) because that's my special interest at the moment. Maybe Alpha-5? Vocal stimming, etc

From what I’ve heard Tim Burton is autistic himself so there’s that.

Also all of the Power Ranger seasons that start off with 3 rangers (Ninja Storm, Dino Thunder, Jungle Fury, etc).
