    I was using odd as a catchall term, plus I was tired and couldn’t think of better phrasing. And I was using it to try and question why is it generally a common thing to label something as autism just because it isn’t a socially ‘acceptable’ response.

    Non autistic people can be just as socially inept. And not every autistic person is socially inept. So it’s just tedious seeing a lot of stuff labelled as autism, when it could be a plethora of other things.

      Yeah sure, but those patterns are super clear and obvious to someone who’s not autistic. You probably do just a lot of non autistic stuff being labeled that way by dumb people hooked on the new buzzword though.
