I'm curious how that could work. That peaks my interest because I've known people who have autism and seem great at socializing. I don't have autism, but I'm very socially awkward, and if autistic people can do that I find it inspirational for my own socializing journey.
A podcaster on Radio Free Totebag casually said it, and idk if it was just as a passing joke, or if they were speaking factually. They mentioned a therapist not liking that they still say they're autistic when it's an old diagnosis.
Autistic people want to improve their communication skills and get along with people better, but that isn't the same as getting rid of the autism. You can see what I'm getting at.
Some autistic people may want to get rid of their autism or autism symptoms, and others don't.
