Hexbear when confronted with their lingering bigotry and liberalism due to growing up in a highly racist and reactionary society:

No, I've pointed this out before how the robot memes are based on mocking these people for seeming autistic. Comparing autistic people to robots ia a whole thing, and while it is more complicated in media than being always unacceptable (ie Data is a beloved autistic icon) in this instance someone's humanity is being stripped for looking and behaving like me. I blossomed under Covid specifically because wearing a mask means I don't need to fake emoting how allistics expect me to emote.

There only isn't more pushback because there's little faith people will take ableism seriously enough to drop a shitty bit. We already don't tolerate calling Hillary Clinton a man or whatever other transmisogynistic garbage, the difference is that most of us are tauglht early on that sexism is bad, while transphobia is a central issue in the culture war - everything else follows from that and one can expect a struggle session to ultimately end in the favor of those pushing back against bigoted language, at least in most leftist spaces. Ableism meanwhile is pretty acceptable even on the left, it's not just chuds doing it so it isn't as easy to expect leftists to automatically confront it, and so a lot of us just let it slide knowing we are just going to be mocked for saying anything so we might as well play along with it
