I'd like to believe you but just about every spectrumy type I've met has taken this stuff on board and unironically think it's some sort of truth. Imo it's because nuance and implication escapes them in a lot of cases.

I think it's wise to remember it's still a disability and savant abilities are rare. Mostly it's different degrees of model train types and categorical thinking.

Yeah, I get what you mean. I met some autistic people, luckily not woke. And of course autism doesn’t make anyone good or bad, it just is. But it’s truth that the woke stuff appears to some part of the community and there are even people who aren’t on the spectrum but wish so bad they were so they want to be in the community due to “self-diagnosis”, kind of like spicy straights coming into LGB.
