I hear what you're saying Mechanima.
Alex added the extra forum not only to better line his pockets, but also to continue creating more and more confusion around Autism, along with words like "neurodiversity" and "aspergian" which he likes to throw around too. He obviously doesn't have a clue what autism is and probably has figured it out already. Joining Autism Speaks is just a foothold to further his own means. He's doing a lot of damage to the autism community, more so than Autism Speaks, by contributing to the confusion as much as he can at his so-called AS/autism site, while profiting on it as much as he possibly can, as well. He is especially damaging because he carries the AS diagnosis. I don't believe he has anything except a learning disability and parents who could afford to get him an "excuse" in the form of a diagnosis that somehow sounds a lot better than his real problem, which is just your below average, learning disabled dim wit. Some of these dim wits have an evil, mean streak to go with them. I hope he isn't one of them. But he is a self-serving dog who would use Autism to line his pockets that way and attempt to create more trouble and confusion for the autism community.
DW_a_mom is just a vindictive loser who thinks she knows other people better than they know themselves. Arrogant is a good word for her. I liked her very well. I just didn't want to eat out of her hand with her bullshit PM's she was sending me. She's a major manipulator and she knows I'm not. When I speak I can only do plainly. I just didn't want her pushing her weight around with me. People like her think they can do that to people like me but they learn, eventually, that it isn't going to happen, that they aren't as smart as they think they are even if they are very good with mincing words.
I too ,have better ways to spend my time. If the environment wasn't so toxic at WP, it would have been great. It is what it is because the founder is who he is. He can go ahead and do all he can to muddy the waters for Autism, but it isn't going to work. The experts are on to this crap. I'm sure of it. Anyone with half a brain can see what he's up to and what he's all about.
