Trivializing is taking very real and major struggles that certain humans experience to much greater degree than others and pretending it has the same gravity as minor annoyances that a wide range of people experience.
If your comment is a joke or otherwise intended to be lighthearted, I apologize, but people saying in earnest what you said is a pretty major pet peeve of mine.
Real “Chronic depression doesn’t exist because everyone feels sad sometimes” energy.
Is getting bullied for walking a certain way and talking in a “funny way” for their whole lifetime every human experience? Cause I didn’t experience any of those yet I’ve seen my friends go through it. Are you suggesting autism is not real? You must be living in a whole new world.
Everyone has a different social perspective. Misunderstandings are very common in human discourse and they are often repeated. When this happens it is not solely because the speaker is autistic; there are many things that can contribute to our struggle to communicate with one another.
lol this is just racism against neurodivergence. silly and ridiculous, and fundamentally life-denying; acting as though other people’s experience is your own. Frankly it’s a little retarded, friendo. Autism is fundamentally a communication barrier, and this is what you say about it?
I agree that it’s prejudice* against neurodivergence, but I just wanted to let you know that using the term ‘retarded’ as a synonym for ‘bad or otherwise negative’ is also prejudice against people with very real disabilities involving retardation.
Being autistic is taking a normal interaction every human experiences and pretending it is unique to you and your autistic peers.

Some people experience some things more than others. I believe that’s how they place you on the spectrum

No, he is obviously suggesting that this horribly generalistic shit take in the pic has nothing to do about autism
