Oh wow, the title of this video is really doing it a disservice. The title leads me to believe it’s about how to spot autistic people who are trying to blend in. It’s about masking. I agree with pretty much everything he says.

But damn, that title… Please do not try to unmask somebody.

I hate this. I haven’t watched the video but the idea that someone will watch me to try and come to the same conclusion as a team of psychology graduates and doctorates is asinine. “But how are we supposed to give them allowances like being patient or kind?” Do that for everybody, don’t try to diagnose someone that isn’t open enough to tell you. I’m not a woman, but I am diagnosed and the premise of this video just makes me say no.

The problem with federation is there’s always that person who believes an article should be posted in 50 communities and then there’s no escaping it. I’m tired of seeing this article as I scroll.
