        If it's specifically the scene where the white doctor is throwing a tantrum and the Asian doctor is sitting in a chair barely reacting, I can see how that can be a meme for when the west throws a tantrum

          Coincidentally I was talking to one of my Chinese doctor friends who works in the West and she said that basicly the same thing happened to her but with a Neurotypical colleague. To quote her: "He's not doing that because he's autistic. Hes doing that because he's white."

          I feel like something about that guy's performance in Good Doctor should be punishable by law but maybe I'm a self hating autistic

        Because the actor's prbly screwed up his job or he intentionally type-cased the protagonist, "the Good Doctor", as ebil or unintentionally malicious for some reason...

        I think it's gotta do with that episode with the autistic patient character....

      The first pic is from some meeting between him and Putin. Putin asks who’s in charge of transportation and Xì replies with “the ministry of transportation” and Putin just nods lol
