barbara-pit for Cringetopia users

Also I hope people in here are decent about plurals. r/fakedisordercringe is another one of the "be normal debatebro-l" instances

    The word autism to me isn't like "something I have" but rather just a descriptive term about me and my traits. It's like

    "That person is nice" = nice person "that person is mean" = mean person "That person is into art" = artistic person

    Autism is just a label, an observation made that "hey people with X and Y trait also seem to have A, B, C trait in common". I would be who I am with or without the word existing so putting it as something I "have" rather than am feels odd.

    But you're free to use and prefer what you want for yourself.
