the point isn't that autists don't have that behavior, it's that normies have it too, it's just acceptable to them
every single trait of a mental illness is one that normies have a shit ton of but to them it's fine
ADHD? only if youre a young boy who doesn't wanna learn, if you're a tiktok addict who get depressed once his binky and baby tablet is taken away, you're normal
schizo? only if your paranoia is regarding something serious like government surveillance, if you're paranoid that your partner sending you three heart emojis instead of the usual four is a sign that they're cheating and about to run off to mexico with their new wife, that's fine, normal behavior
autistic adherence to patterns? only if the patterns are unusual. if you freak out because someone is looking you in the eye, that's bad, but if you freak out that they're looking you in the eye when they're not supposed to, or that they're NOT looking you in the eye when they ARE supposed to, well that's just normal
all normative behavior is a mental illness behavior made socially acceptable
