My first thought is that the people who come up with these ideas and theories are not #autistic. They don't know that recognising #autism (as an NT #observer) from the *outside* is VERY DIFFERENT from being #autistic, and *living* it from the inside!
We don't need autism decomposed into smaller things, we need to go the other way, and make the #connections with #human #neurodiversity, in all its glory!
Oh, and we don't need treating or curing, thank you!
