There’s this huge trend rn on tiktok of people recording Autistic peers or random people on the street that they *think* is autistic through their ableist eyes and they’ll ask them questions, call them NPC’s, etc. and this is one of those kinds of videos- it makes me feel sick

it's especially bad on high school TikTok. the whole "interviewing an npc" trend was very literally kids making fun of other kids cos they're off or cringe or neurodivergent etc. it's really sad
