2025 RationalWiki 'Oregon Plan' Fundraiser

There is no RationalWiki without you. We are a small non-profit with no staff—we are hundreds of volunteers who document pseudoscience and crankery around the world every day. We will never allow ads because we must remain independent. We cannot rely on big donors with corresponding big agendas. We are not the largest website around, but we believe we play an important role in defending truth and objectivity.

Fighting pseudoscience isn't free.
We are 100% user-supported! Help and donate $5, $10, $20 or whatever you can today with PayPal Logo.png!

Re-Write[edit]

As requested, I will add the rationale behind my re-writing of this article. I originally requested it's deletion to the lack of references and information about the term, last night. As advised I have decided to re-write the article instead, as it is a legitimate term used to describe a group of individuals. Various things that needed to be re-done was the lack of sources from individuals described or self-described as being apart of the autistic dark web, rather relying exclusively on opposition sources. I have left the opposition sources but moved them to a criticism section, but the criticism section surely needs a lot more expanding to it.

Furthermore, the article previously contained various comments like "or at least claim to be autistic", and "Eileen Lamb has given the autistic dark web a greater platform", the former of which appears to be a directed-attack from opposition, while the latter failed to address the lack of evidence and response by Eileen Lamb.

Rando autistic who doesn’t know how to edit wiki talks:[edit]

So Thomas (or Tom) clements is himself pretty awful and can be described as an aspie supremacist and has made many a racist dog whistle evident in his Twitter timeline and the many women,non-binary, and POC autistics he’s targeted over the years. The folks at Autistic against Fascist blog have been collecting evidence and are rewriting a lot of their entries to include links but they’re a small team. — Unsigned, by: 2600:387:3:801::ae / talk / contribs
