I'll try to state it more clearly then: I was providing an authentic example from my own lived experience about how some autistic people will demand perfect accommodation from other autistics but refuse to provide any in the other direction. Or acknowledge that other people's needs also exist.
In my followups, I also gave examples of how some autistics will find a way to prove that the autistic who can't accommodate them, asks for their own accommodations, or even mentions this issue in public is actually a bad autistic who is toxic to the community and doesn't deserve support. Like this!
Sarah you gotta get underground and take the potassium iodide because that is a radioactive mess. Even setting aside the splaining at you, the misuse of the privilege lens here means this is just a recapitulation of the high/low functioning folderol, only repurposed as self-exculpation!
Ok, serious answer: you're making a very good and important point here about how the "community" keeps finding new ways to recycle that old and awful schism.
But I also have to say: as an autistic person I (virtually) hang out with, you are also bad now!
I'm not a Republic serial villain. Do you seriously think I'd explain my masterstroke if there remained the slightest chance of you affecting its outcome?

I was bad thirty-five minutes ago.
