Most devastating day of my life was when I realized neurotypicals think that me correcting a factual inaccuracy they said is a power move meant to undermine them in front of others and not just preventing misinformation

I suspect that many neurotypical folks actually *do* do this as a ‘power move’ leading to this being the universally assumed motive. 🥲

I’m a neurotypical and I don’t generally assume this. But it is deeply irritating once I clock someone as doing it, usually because of how they do it and how often.

Yep! They do this a lot Especially in the school/workplace There’s really nothing you can do to stop it in my experience especially if it’s super minor things, which it typically is :/ there’s no way your supervisor/teacher can prove them as a bully because it’s disguised as them “just helping”

god why are we the odd ones out when NT ppl (not all ofc dw) can’t even handle being told the correct info over something that was simply a mistake. like ur so fragile. u can’t handle processing factual info as long as ur ego can be intact bc GOD FORBID they are wrong abt something 😂

(don’t mean u specifically too btw was speaking to the NT ppl of my past who acted like i just massacred their whole family bc i corrected them just briefly and only because my brain saw it as sharing information. not a power move)…now i think abt it it rlly says something abt them when a simple exchange of info is misinterpreted as a manipulative tactic to be seen as this superior smarter being. holy shit some ppl are insane
