I don’t like when autistics say something specific to autistics and some NDs barge in and when we say it’s auts only they say BUT IM ND like congrats that could mean anything from borderline to schizoaffective to OCD. it doesn’t mean ur autisti

like when autistics want a space for only autistics it means only autistics. if ur autistic, come on in! if ur not, stay out.

it’d be like someone asking t1 diabetics fo answer and someone goes “well I have reactive hypoglycemia so I can join” like no you can’t it said t1d

if you use nd as a label bc you can’t access an autism diagnosis that’s fine but if we assume ur not autistic bc you don’t say you’re autistic then you can’t get mad at us lol we said aut only and u don’t say ur autistic so we assume ur not

liek what do you want me to say? sorry you’re not autistic and can’t join this conversation?? sorry you’re not part of a particular marginalized group and can’t commiserate with us??
