Discussion can you blame autists for not wanting to do shit?

[lunin7]

few decades ago they were locked in asylums. everyone irl treats us like dirt like we aren’t shit, all of our efforts are ignored, it’s like people refuse to see the good in us. That’s why some stop taking care of themselves, cause it’s pointless. if an autist never leaves there room or doesn’t take much care of themself (don’t get this mixed with not having hygiene period) then I can’t blame them honestly.

Most autists such as myself stay out the way, we do our own thing, thats what life is all about but normies they’d rather us not exist period so they gotta make us feel bad for every little mistake we do, just because they’re uncomfortable. What’s worse is that I’m aware of it, I try to hide it but I fail to.

One experience I had a couple of years ago was at work. A relatively new manager found out I was on the spectrum, and a couple of days later I felt like he was targeting me specifically with extra tasks and holding me to a different standard in order to get me fired. I did my best to ignore it outwardly, but inside it was tearing me up. It escalated over the following months until ultimately it ended with him getting angry and shouting at me in his office that I'm an idiot and the company doesn't have space for "people like me." However, what he didn't know is that I'm also a schizoid and suppress my emotions, so his efforts to get me to break in public failed. I just calmly bowed my head, walked out like nothing had happened. I was also secretly recording the conversation on my phone. At home though, I was shaking with fear, felt like I should probably quit rather than deal with any more abuse. Later that week, HR called me in, with accusations that I'm failing at my tasks and may need to be put on a performance review but they wanted to get my perspective before setting up a meeting with everyone. So I showed them my work log and how I had been completing everything and contributing to the team, and that the manager just didn't like me for some reason, and told them about how he blew up on me and that I had a recording of it. I played it back to the two HR people and they just looked at each other and were like "well, that changes things." The meeting ended and later next week the manager resigned.
