why are we still using autistic as an insult in 2025?
he may be moronic enough to burn it all down from the inside, but autism doesn’t have shit to do with it. I’m tired of people trying to use autism as an get out of jail free card for utter stupidity. autism has very little to do with intelligence levels, and even if it does, it’s the other way around according to most studies.
Cause it’s not so much an insult as a funny stereotype. And there’s partial truth to it. Autistic people sit outside cultural norms. I don’t find anything about that insulting. Especially in a world where the culture has become so toxic. Having a billionaire who is potentially taking Roy of the grid is a huge fantasy of mine and it’s potentially happening. Only an autistic person is able to do this. No one else can.
5d chess or not, hear me out.

We’re on the Internet. On Lemmy…
Labeling it as a superpower is bad, too. Superpowers don’t get accomodations.
