Seems like a good trolling mask.

Pretend to be trans, pretend to be autistic. Insult people, when they get mad, pretend they are transphobic "ableists".

I've had autistic adults try to use the autism as an excuse for socially unacceptable behavior before. Not "I'm sorry I didn't realize I caused a problem because I'm autistic" that's fine. But "How dare you criticize me I'm autistic if hurts me feelings!"

I dare. Your autism is no excuse to be an outright cunt. You are an adult. You have to at least make the effort not to act like a social parish, and if me telling you your behavior is problematic makes you cry, good, cry, and stop behaving like a social pariah.

Autism, like ADHD has become a weird identity cult thing. I know multiple otherwise normal people in my social circle who have self-diagnosed themselves or their family members as an explanation for anything from 'feeling different ' to excusing bad behaviour and deflect blame.

The same thing happened to me on Reddit. I think the worst are people who refer to themselves as "neurodivergent".

Oh yeah. It’s basically code for “I am not responsible for my shitty behavior, and the rest of you are the problem”.
