I’m so tired of ppl who claim they’re autistic and then they hate to interact w ppl who were raised around autistic ppl and in an autistic accepting environment. Meaning those ppl who claim autism dislike unmasked autistics who display autistic traits

I don’t understand the emphasis on “claim they’re autistic”. Are they autistic or not? Being an asshole doesn’t demote an autistic person to just a person who “claims they’re autistic”

I’m emphasizing the fact that they only self identify (therefore claim the term) w autism when it’s quirky and fun, but when around ppl who are culturally autistic they distance themselves from the identity of autism
