    Autistic people often seek justice despite sometimes overwhelming social disincentives toward doing so because to them it’s not a choice, it’s a requirement. Making that choice consciously even if you don’t feel like you have to isn’t something shameful, that should be celebrated.

    In either case, it takes courage.
