    They asked a deeply personal, rude, and misogynistic question in a public space and you want to know if it was in bad faith? I think the clap back was very warranted.

    Also, that’s not verbal assault, it’s just an insult. If she threatened harm or made them feel unsafe, then it would be.

      And if this person was an autist and some celebrity smacked back they would get shamed for assaulting an autist.

      This kind of content is for edgy teens in the “gotcha” phase.

        Hi, I have autism and can tell you that it isn’t a “get out of social repercussions for free” card. The comment was still rude and still deserved a call-out, even if the commenter had autism.

        Maybe don’t use a hypothetical person with a disability to defend your take on a situation.

        And again, the word assault here doesn’t apply. They were rude, they got that energy back. It’s not hard to understand.

          Yeah I thought that was pretty fucking funny that they think people with autism just get away with shit.
          No, people with that flavor of autism repeatedly learn the hard way.

        So you took the literal scenario (woman in wheelchair gets insulting comment asking if her disability affects her sexually) and inverted it so that the insultor is disadvantaged against a hypothetical celebrity who causes them social harm. Why? Autism isn’t a fucking pallisade and it shouldn’t be used to counter attack legitimate points. You’re the one doing damage to perceptions of autistic people. Please stop.

        It’s only edgy or gotcha if you take it seriously in the slightest, which you seem to be. Relax
