Autistic Federation Constitution

Autistic Federation Constitution: 1st Edition

5/17/2023

Our Vision:

In order to protect the Autistic people and provide for the best quality of life we, the Autistic Guild, have taken up the task of creating an Autistic Federation. Our mission is to have an autistic town in every region of the world. The Autistic Federation, through legal means, will build in unoccupied areas around the world. Within the laws of the regions we build in, these settlements will aim to provide the maximum good and maximum freedom possible to their residents. 

The Fork in the Road:

If we continue along our current path, Autists will continue to be placed at the bottom of society... The bullying, discrimination, and blatant disregard will condemn our people to lives of misery. Eventually, they will screen fetuses for autistic DNA and run a eugenics program genociding us before we are born. 

However, there is another path. A path with Autistic Self Advocacy. A path where we create our own communities, jobs, and families. A path where the leading cause of death for autists isn't suicide. Where over 80% of us aren't unemployed and in poverty. Where our lifespan isn't on the decline. And where they will not be able to do the genocide they are looking for. It is a path of Autistic Environmentalism. Where the autist takes back their autonomy and creates communities by and for them. These autistic settlements, built to our specifications, are the only way to save us. As neurotypicals will not allow their society to be reformed to the degree that it becomes habitable to us. 

Style of the Government

The Autistic Federation will be the first network state. While Federation settlements will not be independent, the Autistic Federation will work to protect the rights of all who call it home. The federative model will allow the Federation to work with economies of scale and outsource costs such as defense, education, law, and transportation to the host state to a considerable degree. If a state, where the Autistic Federation calls home, begins to threaten the autistic community; the Autistic Federation will step-in and try to relocate its kin to safer pastures. Therefore, the Autistic Federation’s only goal is to expand and protect the autistic populace by whatever means possible.
