minus-square1984@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0arrow-down1·edit-211 months agoI dont agree it’s about authority at all. This entire list is about showing disrespect for someone and expecting them to be OK with it. To allistic people, everything on this list is insulting behavior that will offend them (except not wanting to eat certain foods). This behavior will work fine with autistic people though. But you can’t expect it to work with allistic people. Different brains equals different expectations of what is acceptable social behavior. That’s it.
