Talking to tik-tokkers and desperately trying to explain that it is not inherently bad to have a childlike personality or interests, that many neurodivergent people act like the people they're saying are weird, that saying "but they're neurotypical so it's not okay" is a discriminatory statement, so on.

#rae rants #“pedo-baiting” uncle phil you have GOT to kill yourself #... i started watchin somw tik-tokker turned youtuber and like. after a couple videos i realized the shit he was making fun of people for #were traits commonly associated with autism. and i knew if i said that he'd probs respond 'but they're not autistic so it's weird'#first off: how do you know that? are you a psychologist? a psychiatrist? a professional? no you're not. so shut up.#second: if you are making fun of traits that neurodivergent ppl have. then you are making fun of neurodivergent ppl.#'but the person is neurotypical' even if they are. you are still making fun of traits that you personally see as abnormal that largely #are not harmful. because... you see those behaviors as lesser.#... to be clear he wasn't making fun of shit that is worth making fun of. he was like 'this (lolita) woman dresses like a kid. kinda sus.'#or 'this man is a picky eater.' or 'this guy had a kinda weird (but ultimately harmless) reaction'#the first couple vids of his i saw were about ppl who are purely just assholes. and then he pivoted to... cringe reactions essentially?#unplug your modem and go talk to a hobby museum curator. bitch.
