Any other autistics feel this way?

People around you, like parents or therapists, tell you that "good people exist" yet every interaction you seem to have with others outside of your support system is nothing but combative, negative, full of disdain, and, at times, manipulative and shady. Just saying hello to some people gets you a nasty look or a choice word. It makes you feel like you can't talk to people or work with others.

When it starts to happen you get in your head like, "It's happening again" and "here we go" despite having done nothing wrong except show up, ask a question, or greet someone. Feeling it happen again brings on so much sadness because it shouldn't be happening.

It's like neurotypical people sense you're different and react to that in such a terrible way that it brings about a burn out trigger...and no one believes you when you tell them that you get treated differently.

because autistics are different from each other, some of us can understand cues or subtext in conversation that others can't. What's more, some studies show that autistics are better at talking to other autistics than with allistics.

To be clear, I am not saying that I am better than other people at understanding subtext, but that I want to make a place to do it together.

Another Adult Autistic Question

As an adult, when someone teases you, or makes a joke at your expense, or tries to pull a prank on you, does it make you unreasonably Furious?

It's like I hit my limit of that when I was about 15 or 16 because people did that to me my entire life. It got around in a very small town that I was completely gullible ........ and I was gullible because I was autistic and did not know I was autistic until I was 45.

But now anytime I'm made fun of even the least bit, I cannot tell you the absolute Fury that rises Within Me against whoever it is. Especially my husband who loves to say sarcastic things and jokes until i am upset and near tears and then mumbles " You do know I was joking the whole time. Why can't you just take a joke?! I can't say anything to you anymore!! .

And about 85% of the time I do not see them as jokes, I see them as personal attacks.

It is just because of having that done to me my entire life when I was pretty much powerless to understand what was going on.

Does anyone else feel this way?

I LOVE being autistic and trying to communicate because every time it’s

[vro0ms-evil-twin]

I fucking hate that the general response to RFK Jr's eugenist take on autistic people is "autistic people do pay taxes, autistic people do work, autistic people do date!"

Some autistic people don't and that shouldn't make them less worthy of life. Some autistic people do need constant help and support and that shouldn't make them less worthy of life.

Once again we're falling in the right wing trap of :

They make a hateful, fascist statement

Instead of focusing on the fact that it is hateful and fascist we try to show them that they are factually wrong

We throw our own allies and the most vulnerable of us under the bus in the process

We legitimise an only slightly less hateful, fascist view as we go

They have completed their goal of making us accept the still hateful, fascist second version, hurrah. What a victory.

Right now what we're getting to with that is that autistic people who can work and pay taxes are okay, and the others aren't. Fuck this shit.

Same thing happens with the people who are being deported ("they have a visa!", "they didn't even have a criminal record!" -> even if they didn't have a visa, even if they did have a criminal record, deporting them and detaining them in what's essentially a concentration camp wouldn't be okay, you absolute tools of fascism.)
