„Although most on the left are sympathetic to us, a few regard our struggle as ‘#identitypolitics’, separate from the class struggle. This is particularly worrying at the moment as, in the aftermath of Trump’s victory in the US some on the left have argued in favour of moving away from so-called ‘identity politics’, claiming they alienate the left from the working class and distracts from more material avenues of struggle.
This is a false and unproductive distinction. The reimposition of a narrow, medicalised #neurodiversity serves not only to exclude many and subjugate those who do fall under its purview, but also functions to subjugate labour as a whole. The assault on the neurodiversity movement is yet another example of capital imposing its will upon labour by curtailing our autonomy over our very neurology. Where workers’ rights and protections are threatened, the left must hold its ground.“ https://www.redpepper.org.uk/society/disability/the-war-on-neurodiversity/
