Another one of your false assumptions. I've known this relative for over 20 years. I know her very well. Thinking before typing is always a good thing. Anyway, I'm done with you now. Goodbye.

@nonyanb09

Oh false assumptions. You mean like "your friends weren't diagnosed by doctors and probably aren't even autistic"? Like that kind of false assumption?

And, by the way, knowing someone a long time and knowing them well are two completely different things. After 20 years if you and your relative don't have a bond of love, you probably don't have what anyone would call a deep relationship.

April is Autism Awareness Month, Why don't you take it as an opportunity to educate yourself about your relative's actual condition instead of what you imagine she is dealing with in your own head.

Either way, take your ignorance and your bigotry and find someone else's page to troll.

[madwoodpecker]

Yes, that's me.

Distro will probably depend a little bit on how the audiences react to the current crop of aspie movies. The distro houses stuck their toe in the water with the ones that have recognizable names. We'll see how they feel about that toe in a few months. (And rightfully so, more people will turn out to see something with Rose Byrne or Phil Hoffman than two unknowns. Here's hoping it gives them an introduction to the area, and they are thirsty to learn more.)

@nonyanb09 Such delusion of grandiose, your not clever. You jab, "Thinking before typing is always a good thing", as if you exemplify it in any manner. Your bold statement of autistics being incapable of love, is a statement of self-evident ignorance. Have you heard of the term "spectrum"? Do you know how it applies in this circumstance? You showed no solid logic, you said nothing worth refuting. Daily humor comes about in the strangest ways, lol.

@nonyanb09

No, but it does need facts to back it up. More than just your poorly formed impressions of someone you don't seem to know very well.

[nonyanb09]

@madwoodpecker The truth is not politically correct, and does not need to be served as a delicate dish that will appease all your sensitivities.

@nonyanb09

...as much about how they feel as you magically do. The doctors and researchers who have spent decades working with more than just one autistic don;t understand the condition as well as you do. You even purport to know more about what they mean by "love" than they do. Where do you get off claiming that? Or claiming to know what I mean when I say it? Or claiming to know the medical histories of literally hundreds of autistic friends of mine?

That's not logic, it's jus idiocy.

[madwoodpecker]

@nonyanb09

Logic? What logic?

You have brought nothing but a bunch of tired, ignorant cliches about autism that have been discounted for decades by the entire medical industry. It would be just plain said if the misinformation you were spewing weren't so horribly offensive.

And yet, based on nothing but these disproven and outdated notions you purport that the hundreds of thousands of autistics who are married, who are dating, who are raising children are all wrong? They don't know as...

[nonyanb09]

Autistic people lack empathy for others, are incapable of being in love romantically, and are completely incapable of loving another person. You must be able to understand the other person and feel empathy for them emotionally before you can claim that you love them. When an autistic person claims they love someone, the meaning of this love is extremely different from when you and I say we love someone. It is a shallow, hollow statement with no depth.

[nonyanb09]

@madwoodpecker You resort to personal attacks because you are incapable of refuting my logic. I am therefore done with your ignorance. The people you know who you believe are autistic are very likely just people who want to gain attention and not true autistics. The autistic person I know is related to me, has been diagnosed with autism by a doctor, and has also qualified for state-sponsored programs and help based on her very real disability.
