I’m watching the good doctor and I’m like “hell yeah Bates Motel man, bad that he’s not autistic but good acting and stupid weird doctor show shit,” and then they’ll say something about autism and I’m like “oh no you talked to the wrongggg people.”

#There’s multiple instances of “you can’t control yourself because of your autism” but also “you should be able to control yourself!!”#Like there was an autistic guy who was very high needs and he has light sensitivity #He was inspired by the good doctor™️ and after his surgery his dad was like “let me get the lights”#But then hesitated and asked first and the son was like “it’s okay”#Like idk if you know this but overstimulation from light and sound and other stimulus is suh-uper not a choice #Or something you just character arc out of.#They have the doctor in the middle of a shooting and he melts down and doesn’t cooperate because he’s overwhelmed #And the guy shoots one of the patrons and Shaun gets blamed and the father figure in his life #Is just trying to get him to open up about the trauma but he also says he thinks he should have been able to get control of himself #And I wanted to scream #I’m hoping there’s a change but I gotta look into the behind the scenes #Because i bet my left butt cheek autism speaks probably pops up because Hollywood loves to use them without any background checking #Despite them being a hate group
