I'll never understand autism. I'm a teacher and I work with about 10 children with autism quite often. They all have different symptoms.
There's this big kid who's quiet and completely mute, won't say a thing unless he's interested in talking, then there's this extremely hyperactive kid who would scream and kick and break stuff for no reason, they both have autism, what the hell is this thing!??
I have been researching the topic, reading articles and watching video documentaries and talking with people, it's insane how different the opinions are! There's this very long documentary that talks all about how autism is just a thing where kids have some issues developing and mostly they just develop slowly, and that it isn't that bad, like they have this super sensitive sense and it's like they have superpowers, that's absolutely bullshit!! I know this 30yo autistic man that can't articulate at all! It's not just when he speaks, he can't fucking write like a normal person, "today was rainy day", that's how he talks, that's how he writes, he went to a private school and he's 30 years old, he's not fucking slow, there's absolutely something wrong with him!
Most autistic people I know don't have "trouble interacting and expressing themselves", that's not at all an issue! They act weirdly, they are intense, you talk to them and they ignore you, but not like being rude, it's like they are in a parallel world and seriously can't interact with you. You look at them straight in the eyes and their eyes feel empty, it feels like they aren't looking at you.
I don't get it, I'll never get it. This issue is far more severe than everyone says it is, autism it's awful, maybe as awful as down syndrome, it isn't a superpower, these people need to get treatment and we must fight to get them a cure, not fucking praise them online. When I was a kid I only met ONE autistic kid, twenty years later there are 10 in the same school! There is something very wrong and it's spreading
