Yes, this!

[ETA 5/9/2024: I'm not sure if I responded at the time—I didn't want to harp too much on this because I didn't want my post to be appropriated for anti-neurodivergence rhetoric or even anti-self diagnosis in an overly sweeping way. I was just frustrated with what seemed like blatantly allistic people cosplaying autism and my apparent inability to get across the actual severity of autistic symptoms in a way that could be understood as distinct from typical human variances.]
