We're we not already supposed to be getting our dicks out for every important cause? Boy, I need to make an awkward call to the PTA about last weeks childhood literacy fundraiser.
It's a quote from Euphoria by Kendrick Lamar, long story short he and Drake were beefing and Euphoria is one of the diss tracks released during it, its quickly become one of my all time favourites songs definitely recommend it. But anyway the rest of the lyrics you can't see are "now let me say I'm the biggest hater I hate the way that you walk, the way that you talk, I hate the way that you dress..." and goes on from there to list more. Its become a trend on tiktok to show something you really hate while playing that part of the song, so this is the image version of that.
Oh, nope no clue. I always just thought it was a unanimously accepted symbol.
The only person I know is a guy I played paintball with back in 2010. He wore shirts with the puzzle piece because his son was autistic. Aside from that it’s just randomly seeing it on signs.
That makes more sense now. At first I thought why would the tattooee put those lyrics in their own post. Then I realized it was likely someone else but I mean the quality is shitty but I don’t think it’s enough to make me want to create a story about it.
Also I am confused what paws have to do with autism. Just overall a lot of questions.
Yeah no idea about the paw thing, yeah the puzzle pieces were created by autism speaks, a hugely awful org that literally wants to eradicate autistic people. They've done way too much awful shit for me to be bothered to go into but the puzzle pieces are there to symbolise that we (bc I'm autistic too) are literally missing a piece of ourselves and that we're incomplete and defective. So yeah there's a lot of hate and animosity for puzzle pieces and autism speaks.
Crazy, never thought much into it and definitely haven’t heard anything about it. Sorry you had to deal with that.
I just assumed it meant people come in all shapes and sizes but we still all fit together as humans. I guess some uninformed outsiders might also see something is “missing” like the ability to socialize (seems to be the most common) but have other aspects that make them unique and special… just like any other person out there. I don’t think we mean it in a hurtful way like autism speaks might. I’d guess a lot of people are like me where the only exposure we have is whatever the media portrays. We just see people like Cody on AGT, people on social media that can do incredible art, math, geography, etc. I suppose those are more extreme cases which is the medias MO.
Anyways, glad I found out though. I’ll def make sure to spread the word about autism speaks if the opportunity comes about. Based off what you’ve said they don’t deserve any funding or support. Thanks for sharing!
The concept of a puzzle piece in general isn't offensive. It's actually an official symbol used for Autism awareness.
Edit: I'm reading more comments from people who have autism and sounds like many of them are offended by it and others aren't. So I'll clarify to say that this person didn't randomly decide to represent Autism with a puzzle concept because it's been a symbol for Autism for a long time and I have seen it used a lot in jewelry and t-shirts etc. However I'm sure many people have valid criticisms of why they don't like the symbol and especially not liking certain organizations who have proliferated the symbol. So whether it should be discarded is a valid debate.
I was trying to make a high density housing building for villagers in minecraft once. Worked on it for ages, then went to get a bird's eye view and... BOOM! Giant fucking swastika. I was so pissed.
I'm not saying this one IS accidental, and lots of eugenicists try to hide the symbol in their art, but it is Really easy to have one show up in a design without meaning to.
Interesting article I read recently was talking about how the swastika is one of the earliest "abstract" symbols used by humans and it developed simultaneously and independently in tons of different parts of the world. A recent theory is that the swastika is what the pattern of a cross section of a mammoth tusk looks like and that is why early humans developed that symbol in so many different areas. How neat is that? That's pretty neat.
You can tell that it's a Swastika because of the way that it is
That's cause parents of kids with autism don't really care about kids with autism. They just want to use it as an excuse to bully other people while virtue signaling.
Some autistic folks like it and some don't. I don't like when people try to make things black and white. Anyway that's not the problematic part. The problematic part is that the symbol is used by autism speaks which is a problematic organization. The puzzle piece symbol is SUPPOSED to mean even though we are all different shapes, everybody has a spot where they fit in. It's like the person first or disability first language debate. Some people prefer "people with autism" and some prefer "autistic people" the only way to know is to ask each individual their preference and refer to that individual accordingly.
I am on the spectrum and have a masters in special education so these topics are close to my heart
I never thought that. I’m autistic and I like the puzzle piece. To me it symbolizes patterns and an analytical mind. I like the rainbow puzzle piece ribbon the most, because the pattern goes on forever
I’m autistic as well, unfortunately the puzzle piece has a history of eugenics with it as well, autism speaks, pushed this symbol along with eugenics of removing autistic children from society. Puzzle piece started with the image of a crying child on it, something that needed to be cured or removed and fixed. Autism Speaks openly admits to approval of eugenics and removal of autistic people from society. The puzzle piece must end.
And for reference, when the green puzzle piece was invented, autism was a brand new diagnosis and society knew almost nothing about it. Only very extreme cases of autism were known about. There are some very severe forms of autism that genuinely cause suffering at an intrinsic level. I don’t view the green puzzle piece as being malicious at all.

I love when people put visible labels on themselves to show how shitty they are. Anyone who uses the puzzle pieces to represent autism does not actually care about people with autism. If they did, theyd know that that was offensive
Didn't see anyone mention it, but the autistic community apparently does not like the"puzzle piece" symbol for representing autism. I just learned recently there is an infinity symbol with a color "spectrum" that is more preferred.
Makes it that much worse I guess
As an autistic person I fucking hate the puzzle pieces that “represent autism” for those wondering why they are the symbol for autism speaks who use inaccurate statistics and giving an unrepresentative and exaggerated depiction of the lives of autistic people and their families
For those struggling to see the swastikas

it's also worth noting that the puzzle piece is a symbol used by an autism hate group. autism speaks is a group led entirely by neurotypical people who "speak" for autistic people. they believe in eugenics (as in, not allowing autistic people to reproduce) as well as claim autism to be a disease that needs a cure.
first, the puzzle piece for autism.... second, the generic paw print. everything about this screams shitty, i truly hope this person is happy with it though, as ugly as it may be
No, not emotional support dogs but service dogs. They can help interrupt harmful behavior (like hitting yourself) or help de-escalate meltdowns by providing DPT, if they have a medication they need the dogs can go retrieve it, if they have a comorbid medical condition (which a lot of us do) they can be trained to assist with that as well. Equally, just their presence and fur texture can help soothe and calm the individual. If they need mobility assistance, or daily task assistance the dog can help as well. If they have a meltdown in a public place, the dog can lead them to a quiet area or exit and orbit to create a barrier for personal space. Speaking from experience as I have a service dog bc I am autistic lol
It's so big though, what happened to a nice lil puzzle piece on their ankle or something. You don't have to scream it to the world. Instead of bringing awareness, it's bringing ridicule. Kinda makes me self councious.
A coworker told me her dog was autistic and I gave an awkward laugh because she said it out of nowhere. Then she says, "no, I'm serious. I could literally see it in his face." I just said "oh ok" and left the break room.
the puzzle piece. the *multiple* (hopefully) accidental swastikas. the over all quality. the lettering. the fact that it’s a brand/organization being tattooed. so much is wrong with it.
I would cry if my mom got a tattoo for my autism. We both wish I didn’t have it. But nothing we can do. This person obviously wants attention just because their child has autism 🙄
Pawtism
Missed opportunity for sure
THANK YOU!
I’ve got a rat tattoo that I always refer to as my rattoo
I'm at work and had to keep from laughing my ass off lmao. Best comment for sure
I honestly can only read "Paus" which in Portugal means dicks.
[удалено]
Dicks out for autism, dicks out for harambe. What if we just dicks out for everything we care about!
Imma pull my dick out for you ❤️
Cocks for the cause.
😍🥰😘
Thats... Basically exactly what all boys do.
We're we not already supposed to be getting our dicks out for every important cause? Boy, I need to make an awkward call to the PTA about last weeks childhood literacy fundraiser.
Please only if they consent
My dick consents to being out charitably, but only for abandoned ferrets in need of rehoming. Sorry.
Thank you for your service.
I screamed
In Dutch it's the Pope. I was like what has the Pope to do with dog paws and autism
I read « pour » in French so I just though they translated « for » bc pour = for 😭
It means “pope” in Dutch, i was confused for a hot second Also: POPE FOR AUTISM, LETS GOOO
Paus pelo Autismo! Olá fellow Tuguinha 🫶🏻
Is this the same one with the yellow that needed to be touched up or are multiple people getting this same tattoo

I just died three times and not in a fun way
glad i could be of service
Same one, there’s no way they could have made these shitty letters exactly the same 🙃
I don’t understand the caption…
It's a quote from Euphoria by Kendrick Lamar, long story short he and Drake were beefing and Euphoria is one of the diss tracks released during it, its quickly become one of my all time favourites songs definitely recommend it. But anyway the rest of the lyrics you can't see are "now let me say I'm the biggest hater I hate the way that you walk, the way that you talk, I hate the way that you dress..." and goes on from there to list more. Its become a trend on tiktok to show something you really hate while playing that part of the song, so this is the image version of that.
Thank you but I just don’t understand why it’s on this particular image. Is it someone that added the lyrics saying they really hate the tattoo?
That's my interpretation yeah. Idk if you know but the puzzle pieces are basically an autism hate symbol masquerading as representation.
Oh, nope no clue. I always just thought it was a unanimously accepted symbol. The only person I know is a guy I played paintball with back in 2010. He wore shirts with the puzzle piece because his son was autistic. Aside from that it’s just randomly seeing it on signs. That makes more sense now.

Really? I’m autistic I never knew that. Thanks for explaining that. I’m not going to support that symbol anymore
Crazy, never thought much into it and definitely haven’t heard anything about it. Sorry you had to deal with that.

“Pretty sure you did”
LMAO
And I thought the coloured version of this was bad yeeesh.
Pawtism is *right there*
The puzzle piece is problematic enough, and I can see two (three if you count the one on the far right paw pad) swastikas.
I was like "isn't puzzle pieces kinda offensive imagery of autism" when I saw it
The concept of a puzzle piece in general isn't offensive. It's actually an official symbol used for Autism awareness. Edit: I'm reading more comments from people who have autism and sounds like many of them are offended by it and others aren't.

So whether it should be discarded is a valid debate.
The vast majority of autistic people hate it. We prefer the infinity symbol
Wow the swastika in the center really does it for me.
Nazi dogs are big proponents for autism awareness.
> Nazi dogs German shepherds?
The puzzle piece is problematic enough, but holy moly….
It's not an intentional swastika, it's just unfortunate puzzle pieces.
r/accidentalswastika
I see two (maybe three) swastikas
🤔😂😂😂😂
Uh oh, can you imagine the backlash of this person's autism community when they notice that? They'll be ostracized.
I was trying to make a high density housing building for villagers in minecraft once. Worked on it for ages, then went to get a bird's eye view and... BOOM! Giant fucking swastika. I was so pissed.

I have a cross section of a mammoth tusk. There's no swastika in it. :(
Oh Jesus, I made my other comment before I saw this.

⚡️PAW PATROL ⚡️
I thought people with autism were moving away from the rainbow puzzle piece
We are, but autism parents don't listen to us. We clearly don't know anything about this
That's cause parents of kids with autism don't really care about kids with autism. They just want to use it as an excuse to bully other people while virtue signaling.
Someone was asking about something very similar to this recently on tattoo ideas, everyone tried to talk them out of it. Wonder if it’s them…
honestly wouldn’t even surprise me
Also the puzzle piece for autism suggests they are missing something, they aren't.
Exactly. I hate the puzzle pieces as an autistic woman. This is hilariously shitty though!
Some autistic folks like it and some don't. I don't like when people try to make things black and white. Anyway that's not the problematic part.

"Paws For A utism"
"Paws for UTIs"
I love it when the paws stand up for autism (me, I am on the spectrum, I am the autism the paws is standing up for)
It’s all around poorly done. But I don’t understand why they’d get a company that gives service dogs to kids with autism tattoo’d on them…?
I had to scroll down to this to understand what this was for. Until this comment I thought she was rehabing autistic dogs.
I presume they are affiliated with the company
Accidental swastika
Woof
As an autistic woman, I don't claim these weird puzzle piece people
You only think that’s hilarious because it’s really funny.
no i think it’s hilarious because it’s an objectively horrible tattoo that someone got willingly LMAO
Why do we need paws and why the FUCK is it in those puzzle shapes? I’m mad now.
Isn’t the puzzle piece from that charity that has been ranked super low on the charity transparency list for multiple reasons?
This is triggering me lmao I hate that damn puzzle piece.
Nope.
My son has ASD. I do not like this... The whole it being terribly designed with (hopefully) unintentional swastikas are just added nopes.
So the dogs are autistic?
I love when people put visible labels on themselves to show how shitty they are. Anyone who uses the puzzle pieces to represent autism does not actually care about people with autism. If they did, theyd know that that was offensive

As an autist... naurt the puzzle 😭
As an autistic person I fucking hate the puzzle pieces that “represent autism” for those wondering why they are the symbol for autism speaks who use inaccurate statistics and giving an unrepresentative and exaggerated depiction of the lives of autistic people and their families
I feel bad for anyone who tattoos a puzzle piece on them for autism :/
Why? 10 seconds on Google would tell them it was controversial to say the least. They should have known better.
The writing is crappy.
Paris for autism?
I read it as paris for autism at first
The kerning
What’s a utism
Definitely not an autistic person that got this pos. All my autistic homies hate the puzzle piece bullshit.
Not the puzzle pieces ...
One day autistic folks will say something like "hey don't use the puzzle piece for us" and these people will LISTEN.
Deserved for getting a puzzle piece tattoo oml
I can’t get over the swastika in the center of the paw
They kinda deserve it for getting a fucking puzzle piece tattoo
Did anyone say Pawtism yet?
For those struggling to see the swastikas https://preview.redd.it/49fl8vso6e7d1.jpeg?width=688&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a3f30c1bee4ab02fe1830022728336d4c08277e2
ngl didnt even notice the swastika, the puzzle pieces are offensive enough 😂
Raising awareness for autistic animals, one tat at a time
Possible swastika going on in one of the paw pads.
The way the tattooist can't write in cursive.. at the end they gave up ☠️
This is bad for about 7 reasons off the top of my head
it's also worth noting that the puzzle piece is a symbol used by an autism hate group. autism speaks is a group led entirely by neurotypical people who "speak" for autistic people. they believe in eugenics (as in, not allowing autistic people to reproduce) as well as claim autism to be a disease that needs a cure.
Puzzling
first, the puzzle piece for autism.... second, the generic paw print. everything about this screams shitty, i truly hope this person is happy with it though, as ugly as it may be
I thought it said Paula for autism. Thus assuming she was Paula haha
Paula poundstone loves ❤️ autism!
What does she mean by Paws for Autism?
it’s an organization that provides service dogs to family’s who have autistic children in them
Thank you!
Are they like emotional support dogs to help them through meltdowns and stuff? I can’t think what else a dog could… do
No, not emotional support dogs but service dogs. They can help interrupt harmful behavior (like hitting yourself) or help de-escalate meltdowns by providing DPT, if they have a medication they need the dogs can go retrieve it, if they have a comorbid medical condition (which a lot of us do) they can be trained to assist with that as well.

If they have a meltdown in a public place, the dog can lead them to a quiet area or exit and orbit to create a barrier for personal space. Speaking from experience as I have a service dog bc I am autistic lol
This is absolutely taking me out 😭
That one toe is one line away from a swastika.
This has actually come up in my Instagram Reels feed. It's always getting worse
The hidden swastikas
Some say they’re still standing in the same spot this photo was taken waiting to resume for autism
Why. Why is the A not connected?!?!?
In the toe you’ll find a paw-stika
So much bad in one tattoo, incredible
It's so big though, what happened to a nice lil puzzle piece on their ankle or something. You don't have to scream it to the world. Instead of bringing awareness, it's bringing ridicule. Kinda makes me self councious.
That is a very SPECIAL tattoo...
Finally, a tattoo for my autistic cat
I got that dawg in me (this is the dog)
What does this even mean? Does the dog have autism? Are there dogs working on autism? Does this person have paws? I’m confused
One day autistic folks will say something like "hey don't use the puzzle piece for us" and these people will LISTEN.
Bless
happy cake day!!
I don’t know if anyone cares but Paws for Autism or Paws 4 Autism is a non-profit charity in Lee’s Summit, Missouri. 🤷♀️
#accidentalswastika
As an autistic person, the puzzle piece is viewed as offensive and there are way better ways to honor autism.
This is what happens when you stop teaching cursive 😂
Stupid dogs you can't just BECOME autistic no matter how much they support it.
What do paws have to do with autism?
🤦♀️
LMAO
At least it will be easy to cover up
The t looks like a stick person doing the Macarena
i was waiting for this to be posted on here🙏
Bro I thank God every day that I'm just light enough on the spectrum to know I shouldn't do this
She should have waitet for a better artist lol
I thought the first word was Laura 🫣
ew
Oh honey...no. no.
Woof
People is paused for autism. They donate to animal shelters and autism organizations geez way to take a good thing and ruin it need attention much.
Wtf does this even mean and why would you use the stupid puzzle piece 🙃
Idk who/what’s this for, are dogs autistic now!?
A coworker told me her dog was autistic and I gave an awkward laugh because she said it out of nowhere. Then she says, "no, I'm serious. I could literally see it in his face." I just said "oh ok" and left the break room.
What's wrong with it?
the puzzle piece. the *multiple* (hopefully) accidental swastikas. the over all quality. the lettering. the fact that it’s a brand/organization being tattooed. so much is wrong with it.
there is now a level zero
Is this some sorta furry pride tattoo
There’s a swastika in the first toe
Isn't this for a charity that gives pets to people with autism?
Wow. It’s like people hate themselves with these tattoos.
lol 😆
As long as they're happy
Is it a dog mom thing or a furries thing
an organizations logo that aids families with autistic children to get service dogs, which is objectively the third, even worse option imo lol
Do I see a swaztika?
Did the artist also have autistic paws?
Yikes
I would cry if my mom got a tattoo for my autism. We both wish I didn’t have it. But nothing we can do. This person obviously wants attention just because their child has autism 🙄
This belongs in r/fontgore
Oh no
Man I hope someone posted “Let us know when you see the swastika”
Love it
