at least half of the jokes about the Cringey Aceys i see on this fucksite are just recycled from Those Stupid Autists Don’t Understand Social Norms and Like Things Obsessively and Wrong jokes like think critically about the things you say and make fun of perhaps like if you sound like a 4channer making fun of autistic people then maybe leave that Funny Post unposted

This is so true honestly. So many of these shitty “jokes” are basically ‘Look at these WEIRDOS’ which… Is just completely rooted in ableism no matter your target tbh

yup.

like hey guys, it’s not enough to say “oh i would never make fun of an autistic person for being obsessive but these people are neeeurotypicaaal” like

1. you don’t know that lol and

2. the POINT isn’t making an exception for us poor autistics bc we are just too stupid to know better it’s to understand that it fully doesn’t matter if someone acts different than you (as far as it’s harmless…) like they are allowed to and you making fun of them for being Cringey will ALWAYS be rooted in ableism literally no matter if they’re disabled or mentally ill or not

not to mention how many of Discoursers will say shit like “please go outside” when LITERAL AUTISTIC PEOPLE SHOW AUTISM SYMPTOMS, as if the reason we act that way (obsessive, ‘childish,’ literal) is because we haven’t been around people enough and that’s why we’re so weird or what the fuck ever lol

or when people tell autistic adults who have talked about their social difficulties or sensory issues to “get a job” or “find some friends” or otherwise make jabs at AUTISTIC PEOPLE for BEING AUTISTIC and then framing it as making fun of The Aces

like hey the discourse isn’t a fucking free pass to be ableist and the glee with which you’re hurling ableism at specifically autistic people now that it’s Acceptable is kind of transparent actually!
