// sia , ableism

the way maddie ziegler was basically forced into the role of music and then ended up crying on set for fear that she was mocking autistic ppl and sia simply said "i won't let that happen" makes this movie worse than the dumpster fire it already is.
she was 14 at the time btw. sia said it herself in an interview. and she's maddie's godmother who literally created this movie around maddie like she had maddie in mind for the role while writing it

sia is pure fucking scum
hope I'm not too late to "plug" things

pls listen to autistic people. this movie never should've happened, an it definitely shouldn't have been released after autistic ppl expressed their opinions toward it.

cast disabled ppl in their respective roles, just like u would cast-
a poc as a poc. we should be able to tell Our stories.

accommodate for autistic ppl. don't baby them, ACCOMODATE. that includes changing the environment, removing thinfs that can cause sensory overload, etc.

and don't watch this movie.
this is a very good thread if u wanna learn some more things abt this movie without watching it.
