As an Autistic person myself (technically non-verbal but can “pass” for a level one now, due to YEARS of therapy), let’s not romanticize and fetishize autism. For some it’s a very real struggle. We have a spectrum for a reason. It doesn’t mean some people more “more or less autistic”, it means some people are high support needs, others are low support needs!
I can understand if you misinterpreted this post as being literal, but it’s definitely supposed to be humorous. I also understand that you don’t like the fetishization of autism, doing so doesn’t do justice to represent the difficulties of autism. But remember it’s ok to love yourself, and you don’t have to fetishize autism to do that
You keep bringing up “everyone” like I gaf. Like I’m sharing my opinion for upvotes. Acting like a victim? Spiteful commentary? It’s called CRITICISM, learn to accept it. I ain’t no fuckin victim, I am an autistic woman tired of these fuckass jokes to make autism seem more desirable.
Who said I’m trying to change it??? Are you okay??? Just bc I don’t like it doesn’t mean I’m trying to change anything, I’m allowed to share my viewpoint. You are making this seem like a personal attack on you, which is why I’m guessing you’re young or immature (or both). Your responses aren’t nuanced or balanced at all, just emotionally charged and petty
imagine getting mad at someone who's nuerodivergent for displaying a nuerodivergent trait. #8 isn't a meme nazi for being bothered by the format you chose. loads of people with autism get similarly upset when people use something inacurately, like phrases or memes or certain terms. just say other people's nuerodivergence being different from your own bugs you and move on
And OP (me) doesn’t want to give the time of day to a troll that can’t just drop it and I’m done trying to explain that it’s a joke, it’s not fetishizing anyone or anything, and it’s entirely meant to be humourous. It’s my page and I can block whomever I wish to lol idk why they’re so upset
