the mods of r/autism banned me for repeatedly calling them out on their bullshit bc they wouldn’t address it. It’s incredible, no matter the neurotype, mods are always the same hypocritical powertripped manchildren who never take accountability bc they think they are god for managing a subreddit. I pity them really, and i can proudly say that for all that is worth, that even if i have my problems at least I’m not one of those pathetic slobs.

    i don’t like the idea of a community that big setting a precedent like this. Then ofc I’m staying here bc it’s much better, but i feel like this is a big problem, bc ppl are more prone to flock to that cesspool and thus getting exposed to autismspeaks propaganda and redditors. Im gonna take my benzos bc I’m really agitated about this

      The unfortunate reality that I’ve come to cope with, is that there’s only so much you can do to attempt to convince people of something contrary to beliefs integrated within their identities.

      Cognitive dissonance is a difficult battle to wage, but it is fruitless persuade those unwilling to be convinced that a large community easily indexed on the first page of the most ubiquitously used search engines is not the best solution to find community.

      It is an unfortunate truth, but it will reduce the harm in your life to distance yourself from these types of group think communities.

      I would prefer to be downvoted and engage in good faith discussion with a smaller group of individuals and possibly have my own beliefs evolve than stay in a corporate environment.
