As an autistic person, I am fucking terrified of what's gonna happen around December.
A few months ago it was announced that Amber Heard is gonna be in a movie about an autistic boy in an El Salvadorian town in the 1800s who is accused of being possessed, and Amber Heard's character is an American psychiatrist who is going to cure the boy.
If you don't see the problem with this premise, you either live under a rock or you hate autistic people. The fact that one article about the film was written by a Heard supporter who described the boy as having "special abilities" is proof of the kind of ableism that is rampant in "leftist" circles.
Autism is a DISABILITY, it's not a disease, it's not a superpower, it's a DISABILITY!!!!!!
Does it make life harder for us, sure! But we don't need to be cured, and disabled people have been saying that for years!
During the Sia situation, so many non-autistic people were attacking the autistic community because how dare we want a say on how we want to be represented, not to mention just recently disabled people were attacked for asking Lizzo to remove an ableist slur from a recent song. I am worried that this situation will be much worse cause it's happening close to the Depp vs Heard case.
I don't give a fuck what your stance is on the Depp vs Heard trial, Amber Heard is profiting on the dehumanization of autistic people and if you support her, you are an ableist piece of shit!

"A big thing I had to learn, (was) that I’m not in control of stories other people create around me. That’s something that probably I’ll appreciate as a blessing further down the line. Right now, I just kind of want to not have, you know, stones thrown at me so much. I’m here to support a movie. And that’s not something I can be sued for. What I have been through, what I’ve lived through, doesn’t make my career at all and it’s certainly not gonna stop my career."
─ Amber Heard

Amber Heard is set to appear at the 69th Taormina Film Festival for the world premiere of In The Fire.
The film will premiere June 24 at the Teatro Antico di Taorina.
In the Fire is described as a supernatural thriller that stars Heard as a pioneering psychiatrist who sets out to treat a desperate child at a time when psychiatry is not yet a respected science. Set in 1899, the film follows a 38-year-old American psychiatrist as she arrives on a rich farm in Colombia after being called to solve the case of a disturbed child following increasingly insistent accusations that the child is the devil. While the woman tries to psychoanalyze the child, the nefarious events intensify and her “cure” becomes a race to save the little boy from the fury of his fellow citizens, and perhaps, even from himself.
