How somalis bak home treat autistic people

[Unicorn]

I knew tht they didnt understand autism or mental health. They probably call it jinns or whatever but this video of this kid called yusuf who has autism came on my fyp. Hes mom runs his account and on his page it says he has autism.anyway most of his vids are funny. This new 1 he was celebrating graduation of his brother or cousin and all the somalis back home watched his video. Most of the somali comments are talking about how kids in america got injected,how theyre dumb, and how the boys arent manly. Like wtf. They act like these types of people dont exist in somalia and if they talk like this online theyre 100x worse in real life to their on autistic people. I dont want to put his video up. U can look for it on tiktok.

it seems to me its mostly the diaspora that consume his content i haven't seen bad comments. Been following that page for a minute though i don't watch often. Maybe you are talking about stitched videos? i haven't seen those

People are always much worse online than in real life. I moved to Somalia and was suprised by how kind and generous some of the people are. It's like you looking at 4chan/twitter and assuming all white people are racist nazis.

Exactly. Social media is not real life but a lot of people think it is and somehow it is effecting them mentally in real life.

Alot of qoraxjoog somalis on tiktok are very young, they compete in who can be most rude and crack jokes at others expense.

I do think there’s alot of ignorance re autism but yh u shouldn’t use social media to gauge societal beliefs

Why did Allah give people autism

So we can feel grateful for health i think but this question has no end. Why did allah make u a man and not a woman? Only allah knows. Same with autistic people and healthy people.

But still a person who has autism doesn’t quite get punished as a healthy person without it no?

True. When they die they wont be judged. Theyre like a child.

Folks back home really need to wake up and accept mental health is a real thing man. May Allah grant them the vision they need

Most of the somali comments are talking about how kids in america got injected,

People have asked me about this as well. Where do they get the notion somali people are being made dumber by the American government via injection of some medication?
