Kids got into tech industry and now it’s their spouses that have to deal with their tism, instead of parents

Buzz off. If you were trying to make a joke, it didn't land. It scans as ableist twat.

It was either a genuine ableist comment or a ham fisted attempt at sarcasm poking fun at ableist folks.
I see now it was the former.
Edit: Pre-empting the inevitable "how is this ableist?":
I don't mind the use of a reclaimed slur, I'm a big proponent of that, tbh. I use them all the time. What's ableist is the idea that spouses have to deal with their partners. The idea the autism must be a negative in a relationship removes agency from autistic people. My spouse is not my nurse, I am not someone they have to "deal with".

Self-hatred is not a good look.

Noe you’re making me self-conscious about when I get into a self-hating mood; unfortunately this gives me yet another new reason to hate myself: it’s not a good look.

That's a very privileged Westerner opinion to have.

Why? I have mild tism, I found it quite funny and quite real, it even felt good to be seen.

It's always the normies being offended for something that isn't about them.

Are you being offended because it's too real or because I'm not supposed to rattle the normies?

personally I think it's important that parents (especially those who raised kids requiring significant time investment) can vent to express themselves. coming from this perspective I don't really care if a slur or two goes flying, so may I ask what was so incredibly offensive?
