It doesn't but a neurodivergent person can absolutely be an arsehole.
Its not a magic label that makes everything "quirky" and "eccentric".
Nobody said that. They were simply correcting the misconception that autism is bad.
And i was correcting the misconception that just because someone is neurodivergent doesn't make them immune to being an arsehole.
Neurodivergent people are people, with all that entails.
Nobody said that.
Nobody said autism is bad (in the chain im replying to), but here we are.
Two statements that never happened with two corrections that aren't needed apparently.
They did say autism was bad. That’s the whole point of the correction. Are you just dead set on being an asshole?
The entire post was :
Point at where the person said autism was bad and i'll drop it.
If you cannot parse “power hungry autistic lunatic” as having negative connotations then I’m not sure what I could ever attempt to discuss with you.
If you want to pretend your interpretation of three descriptors is universal then i'm not sure discussion is what you are looking for.
Two potentially (probably) negative and one neutral, to me, but what do i know , you are the arbiter of correct interpretations after all.
Lmao yes, that’s right. Autistic is just mentioned neutrally in a list. Can’t make this shit up.
I shall defer to your interpretation, absolute arbiter of meaning.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
