Mr Regular, of Regular Car Reviews.

Though it must be said that he has never mentioned having any form of Autism, it is my opinion & some others, that he has Asperger's.

I didn't realise someone didn't have to be dead before we project a diagnosis onto them. In that case my fav youtuber with Autism is PewDiePie. It's never mentioned that he has autism but in my opinion he does, so he does.

Ezra - the guy in the second video seems like it to me.


Considering how bad I am at things like facial expression tests, I will admit that I'm likely not the best judge of this sort thing.

I like cycleofsilence. His voice is so soothing. There's one other person who's cool but I can't remember his name.

I can't speak to his facial expressions, I just noticed how radically different his speech and mannerisms were when he started talking about his own stims versus before that.

I actually dislike amethyst from ask an autistic since she has such a victim complex. It is displayed on her blog and in her videos.

"Undiagnosing" based on a few videos. No should do.


I don't get why someone would post a video about being autistic and then purposely put a lot of effort into appearing neurotypical.


Maybe they want to communicate to NT's about autism without distracting NT's. Maybe after so many years of trying to pass, bieng in NT mode is just something they do. We have read posts here about people afraid they wil not get an Autism diagnosis because despite knowing they should be themselves during their assessment they automatically went into NT mode when with another person. Maybe dispite all the Neurodiversity rhetoric deep down inside they are still ashamed of their autism.
