yeah as an autistic person i use the term autist and you do not speak for me maybe if you were courageous enough not to immediately lock replies you would get some input from actual autistic people
I'm so tired of people using autism as a joke/meme. Shit like "lol they got outsmarted by a bunch of autists on the internet" is so degrading. It implies that autistic people are unintelligent. Autistic people don't even use "Autist". That's a slur from neurotypical people.
