Using autism and cancer in comments and as a derogatory term...

[DumdogsWorld]

I'm "on the spectrum". I have a lisp when talking. I have a neurological issue where I 'think slower' than other people, for which I play video games as a form of therapy.

When people feel like they constantly need to tip-toe around me because I have a "condition", I do not appreciate it. It's sort of like making it out like I'm a lesser human being.

Am I truly an equal to everybody else? Then act like it! Don't hold back. Call me names. Give me crap. Treat me like trash. If the average, everyday person can handle it, so can I!

This is exactly how I feel. I'm on the spectrum too, please don't think that you speak for us, or that any of us are bothered by this. Everyone has different opinions, and we can most certainly understand the difference between our disorder, and a slur that means something completely different. I'm actually more offended by the OPs attitude than the issue being brought up
