Thats very dismissive of you and does not fit this community well imo.

That's not your place to decide.

pushing your assumptions on others is a dick move.

Don't really know what assumptions I pushed here.

Telling people you feel your existence is denied because someone says "autistic people don't have powers" is just not a good look. Calling names and picking fights with people who don't agree with you isn't either.

Unfortunately for you, I'm not leaving this community just because you want me to. I will be blocking you because I didn't come here to be called a dismissive dick. I suggest you do the same.

Have a nice day.
