🎤 Whisper Transcript (en) ⏱ 61s

"I keep seeing other autistic people echo the sentiment that it really seems like neurotypical people don't know how to think for themselves. Like, I can't tell you how many times I've broached a topic in conversation and they've said I have to see what other people are saying. Not I'm uninformed on this topic, so let me better educate myself, but no, I can't form an opinion until I know what other people's opinions are. Am I the only one that thinks that's fucking insane? And another thing, I don't understand the culture of trends. Like every single time that I hear or see someone say, you're still wearing that or you're still doing that. Were you participating because you genuinely enjoyed the thing or were you participating because other people were doing it? You were doing it because other people are doing it and that's fucking crazy to me. Like, do you guys genuinely like anything? Do you possess any organic opinions about anything? Because it doesn't seem like y'all do."
