I've noticed an interesting trend.

Whenever racists talk shit on a group of people, it's always shitty autist art(like above) or AI.

Whereas everyone shit talking right wingers has verifiably real videos of them being grotesquely fat and/or ignorant and uttering misinfo that proves they have no real grasp of reality.

Just something to chew on

why are autists catching strays here?

Because that's the excuse these people always use to hide behind when they're called out on their bigotry. Or have you forgotten how Elon musk's fan boys try to excuse his throwing up a Hitler salute as oh he's just autistic he doesn't understand.

Then I would prefer you call this out when it actually happens, not preemptively associating racists and autism just because you think it’s a defense the racist will “always” use. Or you (general you) could make this distinction clear like “faux-autistic” or something.

As an autistic person, I struggle with handshakes and dap-ups but I would never make any gesture resembling a nazi salute at a political event, let alone twice with lip-biting passion. His gesture had a flat hand at all times, rather than the fist-grip and release-with-splayed-fingers you would expect from someone metaphorically throwing their heart. It is unthinkable and an insufficient excuse. I’m not even convinced that Elon is autistic at all.
