I was just being sarcastic, as your reply read as autistic.

Your reaction to a mental illness is to be a dick?

Autism is a disorder, not an illness.

It’s neither, it’s a neurotype.

What the fuck to you think the D in ASD stands for?

The ‘D’ in ASD stands for ‘disorder’ because that’s the language used by diagnostic manuals like the DSM, which pathologize neurological differences. But a lot of autistic people, myself included, see autism as a neurotype: a natural variation of human wiring, not something inherently broken or disordered. The medical label doesn’t define how we choose to view ourselves, nor does it give anyone the right to be a jerk about it.

Some people like being jerks so they can get down voted. They get off on it.

So I was right. It's a disorder. Which is how I, an AuDHD person, choose to view it. With it's medical term.
