“Autism is good because it makes you unique”

I want to fucking strangle anyone who says this. Why don’t you try being autistic then if you think it’s so great and then consequently: -struggle with employment -get shamed/bullied/ostracized by normies just for existing -have frequent meltdowns that get seen as being a whiny spoiled brat throwing a tantrum -develop side effects of anxiety/depression due to living in a society that hates us I’m not denying that the different wiring in the brain can have benefits like ability to hyperfocus and better knowledge of niche topics, but in this late-stage capitalist society where we’re conditioned to shit on any type of difference, it’s just a disease and has no advantages.
