What’s your take? I’m not sure if I know of an historic case of it like IDK maybe 200 or 150 years ago but nowadays I have several cases near of autistic people, so what do you think is old or new?

      This seems incredibly disingenuous when you can just go search the internet for the definition

      The F? That’s what I did, and posted in the other comment. :⁠-⁠P

      I think there’s a definition of “wrong” here as well. That’s a very subjective definition. My god son has autism, and he has problems in school, and it makes life difficult for his parents and siblings. That’s not “wrong”? It creates harm in some definition.

      I dunno, I’m not trying to blame autistic people or make them seem bad or worth less or something, I’m just saying that it sure feels like an illness sometimes. I also suspect I have some ultra mild placement on the spectrum, and it can be challenging in certain situations.

          and you didn’t respond to me, so if you hadn’t said that I might not have seen it at all.

          But I did respond to you. The comment with the definitions from Wikipedia is a response to your comment.

          And you didn’t bother to look before responding to me because…?

          Didn’t bother, or didn’t have time at the moment. 🤷‍♂️ Sometimes life happens. When I had time, I bothered, as you saw. 👍

          you want to act like I’m an asshole

          What? No, I don’t. Why would I? 🤨
