As an autistic person who sees information sharing as more valid and respectable than affirming possible ignorant perspectives for the sake of obtuse social saliency, all I see is a fact and a valid question.
Also valid advice for those with money.
If you can save money from a theater ticket to another Disney slop live action remake, and donate that money to independent artists trying to survive and simultaneously have a voice despite the Disney/warner types stranglehold over sellable cinema for most public spaces.
People get so upset when anything questions their current trajectory, rather than saying “oh yeah, that’s a valid perspective to avoid the issue in context.”
And gets a lot of autistic people yelled at for doing their job or trying to help, IMO.
Is there a reason the advice and question aren’t valid? To me the only rudeness here is in the framing of the rebuke.
This isn’t trying to one up anyone, this is an attempt to communicate, and improve people’s ability to communicate.
I’ve even seen doctors excuse bullying of autistic children because the child joined discussion of test scores without pandering to the ego of people that were socially affirming how terrible the test must be, due to their performance.
At this point people need to start trying to understand the double empathy problem, because it’s valid for more cases of communication differences than just autism.
