So hi! Could folks who are making jokes about Mark Zuckerberg please be aware that comparing him to a robot can be hurtful because
a) if he is autistic you are repeating the same tired old jokes about autistic people having no emotions just because you can't read our facial expressions, and
b) if he is not autistic then you are still doing that, and reminding autistic people of jokes people make about how we're evil/heartless - and at the same time you're comparing us to Mark Zuckerberg. Rude.
@cassolotl But it's OK to say he's an over-privileged nerd with a frat boy whose outrageous wealth has so thoroughly isolated him from human concerns that he is no longer fully human, right?
@starbreaker I mean, it might or might not be okay, but it wouldn't be causing doom for autistic people specifically.
@starbreaker That's talking about class and wealth and power, so it's not related to autistic traits, so yeah.
