Autism Speaks seems to be a horrible organisation, but the guy in the video arguing that developing a genetic cure to autism would be a genocide, actually, - a bit silly. I'm not an autism expert this whole "low need autism is just autism in low IQ people who got abused" seems like crank science, right? Also, weird how he goes for the blindness comparison, considering how deafness advocats were probably the first to use his "culture not illness" argument.
Yeah as with a lot of stuff like this its not well known, only learned of it myself with in the last couple months, but I think it fits in quite nicely with "from each according to their ability, to each according to their need" :)
