Anti-autistic person on Quora just asked me...

Post Reply New Topic

What career could they get that had the least amount of autistic people in it. They said they couldn't stand autistics and wanted to avoid them as much as possible.

I told them that if they can't stand autistic people then they don't deserve a good career and then said to have a nice life, but not too nice.

I'm thinking maybe this person had a bad experience with one or two autistic individuals and therefor think they're all the same and I should have explained autism is a spectrum disorder and that we're just as individual as NTs, but I don't know if they're intelligent enough to understand that. Or if they're just being a troll.

I sense you missed an opportunity for sabotage

You mean warning employers not to hire this person because they're anti-autistic?

But aren't most employers anti-autistic anyway, even if they don't admit it?

Oh no. I mean recommending him a dead-end career. (But that is below the civilized. I was being sarcastic.)
