Stop saying Aspergers!: 1. Hans Asperger was a Nazi who loved the idea of killing 100 kids in a disability hospital. Everyone mocks Hitler for being antisemitic but no one cares how he was an ableist. Neither should be promoted and I may sound crazy but yes I am boycotting the word Aspergers. 2. Aspergers seems like a genius disorder when it's literally Autism Spectrum Disorder Level 1. 3. It hasn't been used since 2013 due to Dsm 5 (tbh it's about damm time they create dsm 6) but european countries like Switzerland still use ICD 10 F 84.5 Asperger Syndrome which is outdated and embarrassing. Overall it is up to you guys but I will use to describe me even if I got diagnosed with Aspergers this year.
