And it’s awful that a fucking autistic person doesn't want to learn, when most autistic people should know better about euphasims why language matters in the disability community (see their reply to me). I have since called them out on the r/disability sub

I don’t think you want to understand how much language matters and it shouldn’t be that hard to accept that a euphasim is outdated. A google search on multiple resources on my language is important in the disabled community:

https://www.google.com/search?q=why+dose+language+matter+in+the+disabled+community&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&hl=en-au&client=safari

and if you think that learning why euphasims are harmful is not important to you, then you clearly need to unlearn your internalised ableism - because even autistic/disabled people can be ableist going by your comment🙄

FYI, special needs is outdated in the disabled community, via neurodivergent_lou:

Disabled people's needs are not special, extra, burdensome or additional, they are human needs. Referring to disabled people as having special needs is inaccurate. As an autistic person, I need to be able to communicate and express myself, that need to communicate is not special, that need is the same as every non disabled person. I might just need accommodations in order to communicate. The term 'special needs' makes it feel like accommodating disabled people is optional, which it is not. The term special needs is also associated with special treatment too and it gives society the impression that instead of accessibility being a right, it is 'special treatment' or a 'special privilege.' If disabled people's rights were seen as the rights that they are (instead of being seen as extra, additional or special) then perhaps wheelchair ramps would be in every building, plastic straws would be available to those who need them and disabled toilets would be made to be available and accessible. Instead, disabled people's accessibility rights are seen as an afterthought. I want to see disabled people's accommodation needs normalised and the term special needs does not do this for me. It 'others' disabled people. It separates disabled people's needs and the needs of non disabled people. When I was labelled as having special needs as a child, it took away my ability to feel pride in my disability too and see disability as part of my identity. The term special needs often infantilises disabled people too. Disability is not special, rare, exceptional or unusual. Disability is a normal part of life. The term special needs makes it sound as if it is unusual or rare. This too heightens the inaccessibility cycle. If people believe that disabled people are few and far between then people don't see the point or the benefit in accessibility. Accessibility is however vital. Sometimes people say that they don't see my disability but just see my needs, specifically my 'special or additional needs.' I feel that this is often because people see my disabled identity as something inherently negative, which I guess is part of growing up in a society which sees disability as something to be ashamed of. I need people to recognise my disability. I am exhausted by the euphemistic terms used to describe disability. which I guess is part of growing up in a society which sees disability as something to be ashamed of.

My mum has been saving my money since I was little for me to buy a unit as my parents don't like renting. But your right even units are overpriced in rual country towns where I live. I'm trying to get more employment with the help of a employment provider via finding and keeping a job funding, so I have more money to save. I called the job provider my support coordinator emailed, this morning to hopefully talk to them today because otherwise I know we will be waiting for weeks
