          I don't think most Autistic ppl who think Atypical is a shit show are surprised at what we're hearing about it (if we haven't watched it).

          If nothing else, Atypical's value is that it shows what non-Autistic ppl think Autistic young men need to learn to become "normal."

          And what non-Autistic ppl think Autistic young men need to learn and perform is toxic masculinity.

          Because the point isn't that the show is unrealistic. It's a non-Autistic fantasy about Autistic masculinity in youth.

          And non-Autistic people ARE actually foisting these ideas and tactics and advice onto Autistic young men. Including through this show.
