Yeah- it’s a whole thing where autism gets sanitized and only “good autism” gets praised/tolerated. It’s messed up. All autism, regardless of support needs or social acceptability should be treated as the same level of tolerance. If they can’t handle my stimming and melt downs, they’re not really accepting when they think I’m “cute and quirky”
