    spreading falsehoods

    What part of the post says “if you like arts and crafts you’re autistic”? Or even remotely hints at that? Nobody was spreading falsehoods. An autistic person said they’re having a good time, and an aspect of their autism had a degree of influence over how they experienced that joy in the moment. How is somebody supposed to avoid saying falsehoods when clowns like you are out here pulling “falsehoods” out of your ass to whinge about how members of marginalized groups express themselves?

    If you want to only focus on the duty that lands on neurodivergent people; if you want to describe that as “policing”, then you can have fun doing that.

    What other focus were you drawing in your comment? You were just saying that autistic people need to be careful to not spread “falsehoods” about autism (I again invite you to demonstrate how the post does that), which was instigated by an autistic person expressing joy and literally nothing else. Your entire issue is hinged on someone saying they’re happy ina way you don’t personally like.

    You ignored my first point

    No, you don’t have a point. That’s my point. In the context of this post, you’re just upset at autistic people publicly existing ina way that personally offends you due to prejudice and bigotry. Nobody but you has implied that liking art = autism, and you only made that implication to have a strawman to argue about. In a different context, about a different thing that was demonstrably manipulating someone to equate autism with something that isn’t in line with clinical diagnostics, you might kind of have a point to make. But even then I’d be hesitant to agree with the way you’d approach that because you’re obviously prejudiced against neurodivergent people.

    Nope, should it?

    Yes, your shitty rhetoric is 1:1 with how racists, homophobes, transphobes, xenophobes, etc. talk about whatever group/s they hate. The spirit of your comment (including your half assed strawman) could easily be applied to so many other marginalized groups
