Well, they're technically correct (likely by accident). It is no longer a diagnosis that is used.

Yeah but using it as a derogatory term is never okay

[–] caseyweederman@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 weeks ago

Absolutely agree.

Technically correct is the best kind of correct.

Addtionally, not by accident. I knew it was an obsolete diagnosis as spectrum-boi myself. So, regardless, I get a pass anyways. I, and others, don't need some outraged, outsider, white knight, internet warrior policing what words people in a community can say. It's pretty cringe.

That's a lot of very interesting assumptions you've made about me, friend.

Oh, not about you. About the other guy/gal. Just didnt want you feel ignored. Cheers
