@pea tbh the thing I hate most is when they say autistic people have no empathy. Most autistic people I have met are extremely empathetic. I have also met tons of "nuerotypical" people who are not empathetic at all. For goodness sake another well known trait of autism is that we like to spend time with animals. Who spends times with cats, dogs, and other innocent animals yet doesn't have a sense of empathy. Sometimes autistic people react differently but it concerns me that people think we are unempathetic.
