Autism is like a unicorn - it is invisible. Of course there are cases where its symptoms are visible, but in many cases it is not. This is also often the reason why people question or downplay it in autistic people.
However, this is not only true of autism, but also of other mental illnesses (e.g. depression, anxiety, etc.).

Okay, so Trump-apologists argue that Trump does not draw and does not use the word "enigma" (which, given his level of fluency in English, was hard for me to believe, either).
You serious, folks? I think we're way beyond that. No one needs a drawing and some childish enigmatic words to consider it plausible that Donald "Locker-Room-Talk" Trump was one of Epstein's clients. Trump is a rapist and sexual offender and has already been ordered to pay over 88 million USD because of that.

Naturalized Citizens Are Scared
To become Americans, we promised to defend the laws of the United States. What if defending them now puts our status at risk?Chris Feliciano Arnold (The Atlantic)
There's a concept known as "minority stress," which has only ramped up in the last 6-8 months.
Even if you haven't been directly targeted (yet), the simple idea that you MIGHT be puts you in a constant state of fight-or-flight.
The security of living in a country where at least you felt "doing nothing wrong" meant you'd be left alone has gone out the window.
Every day, I feel tired, scared, distracted, uneasy, sad, and uncertain. It's not a good way to live. It damages relationships, careers, friendships, and so much more.
We should be removing these people from office immediately just for putting people in this situation, much less acting on it.

in reply to Arthur • • •It also makes it so much harder for so many of the things that can occur from being autistic for so long without realising it ourselves and therefore judging ourselves by impossible and completely unrealistic expectations, like depression and low and self-destructive self-esteem, to be even seen, let alone treated, correctly.
