Whether you call it "aspie supremacy" or "autistic supremacy" - it's all terrible and it all has its roots in the worst ideas humans have ever had.

Aspie supremacy started off as the idea that those who had been diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome were different from, and better than those who had been diagnosed with Autism. But now, it more often refers to "autistic supremacy" which is the idea that autistic people are superior to neurotypical, or allistic (not autistic) people.
It takes many forms. Sometimes it's about IQ & intelligence, sometimes it's about being the next stage/step of human evolution, other times neurotypical people are referred to as NPCs, and even more bizarrely, there is a whole community of people out there who believe that autistic people are literally aliens. This New Age version of aspie supremacy involves lots of (often contradictory) concepts, are we Starseeds? Pleiadians? Indigo Children? Are we beings of pure soul, sent down from the heavens to save humanity? As funny as it sounds, these ideas have their origins in the work of Helena Blavatsky & the Nazis who were inspired by her, as well as European colonizers.
Aspie or Autistic supremacy isn't advocacy. It is simply eugenics. And the talking points involved are almost indistinguishable from that of early 20th century eugenicists, white supremacists & fascists.
It has NO place within the neurodiversity movement. Neurodivergent people have historically been the victims of these ideas, and so perpetuating them should be avoided at all costs.
