Let’s start with me: The person posting this just doesn’t know or acknowledge, that autistic people aren’t violent (as sociopaths also aren’t). I don’t even understand this. The author actively sabotages autistic rights movements to gain a small advantage in sociopath advocacy.
Let me add something: In my diagnosis, I was considered aggressive, but I never physically or verbally hurt anyone until i was around nine years old.
As an officially diagnosed autistic and a self diagnosed narcisist, I can’t agree more. Like autism, sociopathy is also a spectrum. As a sociopath you can be a dangerous person or a complete pacifist. I know a lot of people, who I would consider dangerous, but I wouldn’t consider sociopaths. On the other hand, I also met some sociopaths, who I wouldn’t consider dangerous.
Interesting! If you do an AMA, I would love to know.
Here you go, but don’t have high expectations, as it isn’t a very popular topic.
Wait, in what community should I even post it?
I searched for AMA communities. I only found one: !askmeanything@lemmy.ca. It doesn’t seem active tho. You could try there as long as you’re okay with possible disappointment. Otherwise, I don’t have any other suggestions.
I think it would be better if I posted it in some kind of autism community (the autism community here or the new .place community), as they are more active and include more autistic people.
!autism!autism@lemmy.world might be good since it has a larger user base while the autism.place instance doesn’t really have that many users yet nor a community for that kind of post.
Ok, I probably wont.
