Totally agree here. It’s not just a Lemmy thing though, it’s an internet culture thing at this point and it bothers me. People who happen to be really into some niche thing doesn’t automatically make you neurodivergent or autistic at all.

I'm not neurodivergent but I think its a great way to signal inclusivity despite much of it coming off as cringe "autism is a super power". Bit of cringe is a small price to pay to protect more vulnerable.
