Every Californian man, woman, or child (citizen or non-citizen) pays on average $6160 more in Federal taxes each year than the Federal government spends on California.

We fund the country, yet they ridicule us.

Who are the real ‘takers’ here?

I love Mastodon, because people here mostly know more about stuff I'm interested in than me, so I can just sit back and learn. Meanwhile on Facebook, where I actually know most of the people, hardly any of them are interested in anything I am, and they are disinterested in learning anything from me.

[備份]英文自閉症社群的壓迫、分裂與內鬨,告訴我們的三件事/1



(本文作者為低支持需求自閉症+ADHD者、公共圖書館館員、神經多樣性倡議者、前特殊教育教師)

(本文僅代表個人觀點)

即使過去了快4年,筆者依然記得一件往事:當年臉書上人數最多Autistic-led自閉(症)社團Autism Inclusivity,因為日益嚴格的「審查」風氣,導致不少成員退出(或被踢出去),有些人改加入另一個名為Actual Autism Inclusivity的社團。Actual的意思是「真正的」——真正的自閉症共融社團,它的成立是對誰的諷刺與抗議,不言而喻。

這場分裂,實則反映出英文自閉症社群(或神經多樣性社群)中的各種問題,遺憾的是,這些問題到現在仍然存在。身在神經多樣性議題處於萌芽階段的臺灣,我們若能以此為鑑,做出行動,將會是建立友善社群環境的重要一步。

那些英文社群中的壓迫、分裂與內鬨,告訴我們三件事:

一、看見低支持需求(Low Support Needs, LSN)者的特權

自閉症社群將自閉症者在日常生活中需要支持的程度,分為低(Low)、中(Medium)、高(High)三個等級(下文將以LSN、MSN、HSN稱呼),但這並非自閉症者專屬的標籤,任何障礙者都能使用。LSN自閉(症)者,可能只需要日常生活或心理健康方面的少量協助,但MSN/HSN自閉(症)者,可能需要大量協助,才能維持其日常生活。[1]

而「特權(Privilege)」是指「特定群體和個人與生俱來的權利,不完全是通過後天努力或才華取得的成就與功績」。關於特權,有個傳神的比喻:女性主義者Peggy Mclntosh將特權形容成隱形、沒有重量的背包,裡面裝滿了特殊的供給與保障,用來應對人生的不確定性,進而順利通關、晉級。[2]

明明同屬於健全主義(ableism)社會中的弱勢,為何LSN自閉症者,會成為線上自閉症社群中,擁有特權的群體?

LSN自閉症者的口語或文字表達能力,並未受自閉症太大的影響(這就是他們的隱形背包),使他們能在線上社群發貼文、拍影片,發表自己的觀點。如果社群並沒有為MSN/HSN自閉症者提供發聲的空間與協助,久而久之,社群內幾乎都是LSN自閉症者「輕度」、可被稱為「特質」而非「症狀」的自閉症經驗,能定義、形塑「自閉症的樣子」的話語權,便落到LSN自閉症者手上,成為他們的特權。既然人們看見、認知的自閉症,都是被LSN的經驗形塑的,在各種困難中苦苦掙扎、無法出聲的MSN/HSN自閉症者,便成了被代表、被壓迫的邊緣群體。

當話語權朝LSN自閉症者傾斜,最危險的莫過於將LSN的經驗與觀點視為社群內理所當然的準則,以此審視所有自閉症者的處境,進而造成衝突與對立。其中,對應用行為分析(ABA)的爭論,成為砲火最為猛烈的戰場之一。這引出我們必須面對的第二件事——理解理想與現實的差距。

二、理解理想與現實的差距

應用行為分析(ABA,下文將以此稱呼)起源自Ivar Lovaas於1960年代對自閉症兒童的研究,他被視為ABA的先驅,對於將ABA建立為對自閉症兒童的有效療育法有重大貢獻[3]。然而,這並非毫無爭議。

ABA是行為主義的產物,最初的目標是「讓自閉兒看起來與一般兒童無異」,雖然不是每個治療師都認同,但每週20~40小時的高強度治療、用獎勵與懲罰抑制本來無害(僅是不符合社會期望)的行為(如無涉及自傷與傷人的自我刺激),已經造成許多自閉症者長大後罹患PTSD[4],需要花費漫長時間重新學習為自己的身體作主[5]。

再者,Ivar Lovaas在實踐ABA時,不只會獎勵期望的行為,也會嚴厲懲罰(例如電擊、打巴掌)違背期望的行為,這涉及專業倫理的爭議。雖然這樣的行為在後來被國際行為分析學會(ABAI)譴責[6],但仍舊有機構使用電擊作為「治療」的方式,像是美國麻州的Judge Rotenberg Center[7]。

這就是為什麼,ABA被許多支持神經多樣性理念的自閉症者反對,進而提倡肯認神經多樣性(neuro-affirming)的療育法。文章開頭提到的Autism Inclusivity社團,其中一條規定就是禁止pro-ABA的言論。

然而,這會造成什麼問題?

在美國,ABA幾乎是保險公司唯一願意買單的自閉症療法[8],而不包含其他肯認神經多樣性的治療,對於急需支持的家庭而言,如果想減輕負擔,ABA成了唯一選擇。要不就接受可能造成創傷的療法,要不就自行負擔所有費用——這是體制帶來的殘酷現實。但遺憾的是,部分LSN的倡議者只是站在道德制高點,指責接受ABA的照顧者是「虐待孩子的兇手」,甚至向管理員檢舉「不反對ABA」的言論,這無疑是對這群在體制夾縫中求生的自閉症者家庭,最殘忍的二次壓迫。

反對ABA、提倡更尊重自閉兒的療法是件好事,但理想與現實是有差距的,並不是以指責與辱罵就能弭平。倡議者該做的,應該是允許不同聲音存在,並致力於推動改革。

允許不同聲音的存在,正是為第三件事——建立歡迎所有經驗的社群環境鋪路。

三、建立歡迎所有經驗的社群環境

神經多樣性意味著,每個人的心智運作方式是不一樣的,既然不同,那每個社群成員的想法便不可能一模一樣。

在英語社群中(尤其是Autism Inclusivity),筆者看見LSN特權與嚴格的審查,如何撕裂本該互相扶持的社群。而身在台灣的我們,還有機會選擇另一條路:打造沒有壓迫與羞辱的安全空間(Safe Space)。

將社群打造為安全空間,可在其中自在的討論與交流、求助,不只使所有成員受益,也對於自閉症社群整體,乃至於整個神經多樣性運動的發展有所幫助。關於這點,筆者提供三點建議,供讀者參考:

(一)以自然傳播代替武斷糾正:神經多樣性運動提倡許多詞彙與概念,如身分優先語言(identity-first language)中自閉症者的自稱「自閉者(autistic)」,或認為自閉症是不同思維模式,可在自己的發言中自然使用,讓他人看見語言展現的力量。但若遇到有人使用以人為本語言(person-first language)的「有自閉症的人(person with autism)」自稱,或認為自閉症仍是一種需要治療的疾病,應予尊重,而非上前糾正對方,因為你不知道對方經歷過什麼。

(二)容許錯誤、混亂與痛苦的存在:不是每個人都使用神經多樣性運動提倡的詞彙,有人可能會誤用(如將神經多樣一詞用來形容人而非群體),有人可能會說出不夠政治正確的詞或觀點(如殘障、我想治好自閉症),但大家都在倡議的路上學習,也有在重重困難中掙扎的時刻。當有人發言、求助,我們應當先傾聽對方的想法,而不是盯著對方的用詞窮追猛打。

(三)促進理解、合作,而非對立:當身為LSN的我們談論無障礙環境、去機構化、教育改革,我們有想到MSN/HSN的處境嗎?從今天起,將他們與其照顧者,納入社群當中,邀請、協助他們分享自己的意見。讓針對議題的討論更完整。

總結

筆者期望自己,以及所有夥伴,都不要忘記:神經多樣性運動的目標,是為了打造接納所有心智的世界,包含正在受傷與掙扎的存在。

我們有幸能站在英文社群的肩膀上,看見他們走過的彎路。我們不需要透過審查、內鬨,證明誰是正確的,也不需要透過壓迫邊緣群體,換取所謂的進步。

Why do so many authors of enjoyable books end up being so problematic? J. K. Rowling, transphobe. Neil Gaiman, sexual predator. And now I'm saddened to learn that R. A. Lafferty was a Holocaust denier: arriveateasterwine.com/about-4

(Via a Wikipedia discussion where another editor, who does believe the accusations against Lafferty, was falsely accused of white nationalism for enforcing Wikipedia's strict sourcing standards in this case. The source above does not meet those standards, but it is good enough for me personally.)

Climate denialists often complain that provide intermittent power

But they ignore that renewables are so cheap that the solution is in part to over-provision so that even if it is a bit cloudy we still have enough power.

One consequence that we already have is times when we have so much power the excess is free - like right now in the UK (till 3pm)

Usually people figure out good ways to use free stuff - I'm excited to see what the future holds.

A Call for Solidarity from the Universities in Rojava/Northern and Eastern Syria

The following statement was issued by the Universities in Rojava/Northern and Eastern Syria (University of Rojava, Kobani University, and University of Al-Sharq) on 22 January 2026.

We call on you, wherever you are, to stand with Rojava. Raise your voice. Organize on your campuses, in your unions, and in your communities. Use your positions, however limited they may feel, to push for action, to demand accountability, and to refuse silence. Strengthen the networks of solidarity that make resistance possible. Stand up for the revolutionary aims of freedom, women’s liberation, ecological life, and democratic communal life. Your solidarity is part of our self-defense, and it can help shift the balance and prevent yet another genocide in the region.

Full statement: kolektiva.social/@earthworm/11

I have just been informed that on github, windows CI actions are performed in an environment where C:\ is mounted as a -network- drive.

Which means that the default temporary directory location, normally found on C, is a remote block device.

Which means that every tempfile interaction requires a network transaction to complete.

Which means that github CI actions take -significantly longer to do- and are -more expensive for their operations- than they have to be.

Which has the consequence that -your- cost for github CI actions is greater than it has to be, because those profiteering fucks charge by the minute.
