"hate group" means something specific that, personally, we don't want to water down. so we won't call Autism Speaks a hate group. however, their mission statement lays bare their intent to harm the autistic community. they do not speak for us.
as an autistic adult we would greatly prefer that your donations instead go to the Autistic Self Advocacy Network. https://autisticadvocacy.org/
