Set the Wayback Machine to circa 2015 or so. In that time frame,
@Microsoft were trying to promote themselves as some amazing place for#ActuallyAutistic people to work by making us out as little more than robots with all the personal agency of a fucking house pet.
"We love autistic people," said their PR barrage, "because they're too socially inept to realize when they're being taken advantage of! We can demand that they work no end of unpaid overtime, and shaft them with inequitable social treatment, and they won't know any better!"

That's literally what
@Microsoft's attitude towards#ActuallyAutistic people is: That we're an asset who'll work burdensome hours that would burn out allistic people, 'cos we're clearly all a bunch of losers with no social lives and fucking nothing better to do with our time. -
If you want a concrete example of how shit a place
@Microsoft is for#ActuallyAutistic people, just consider the fact that during the acquisition, they kept all of us at Mojang in the dark for literally months, giving no clear direction and no definitive answers to anything.
