No matter what extremes of self-parody they achieve, progressives will continue to progress. Remember Diabetic Barbie? Now the moonbats at Mattel bring us Autistic Barbie.
Via Fox Business:
Mattel is expanding its push for inclusion with the launch of its first autistic Barbie, developed in partnership with autism advocates to reflect how some people on the spectrum experience the world.
Here’s how we know Barbie is autistic:
The doll includes articulated elbows and wrists to allow for movements such as hand flapping and other gestures often used for sensory regulation or expression.
Kids are taught from early age that disabilities are not to be overcome but to be embraced as identities that make people special.
The doll’s eyes are positioned with a slightly averted gaze, reflecting how some people on the autism spectrum may avoid direct eye contact. Accessories include a pink finger-clip fidget spinner that spins, pink noise-canceling headphones designed to reduce sensory overload, and a pink tablet displaying symbol-based Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) apps used to support communication.
Other Barbies celebrate diversity by suffering blindness and Down syndrome.
Mattel Inc. is introducing an autistic Barbie as the newest member of its line intended to celebrate diversity, developed in partnership with a nonprofit organization that advocates for the rights and better media representation of people with autism. https://t.co/kMxZA8v8vQ pic.twitter.com/qXHWreE0vD
