The deficit model of autism in DSM-5 dehumanizes us by focusing on external traits rather than internal experiences. It's also based in Nazi race science.

How can we push for more relevant diagnostic criteria?

Do we even need it?

@theautisticcoach @actuallyautistic I considered getting a diagnosis, but it's almost useless, as I can be myself, self-identify and read helpful texts from autistic people on my own.

Most accommodations that I want would be useful for allistic people too; like abolishing hierarchy, having doctors/teachers have more time and less stress (so they also can help me if I need their help) or having people communicate clearly and not assume that everyone else is the same.
