    They’ve done research that shows NT peers can tell something is different about you withing the first minutes of meeting you. Even if you don’t speak and just listen. They may not know its autism right away but they know they’re not like us, and NTs are judgey AF.

      Yes and no. Yes they can tell. Though it isn’t just nuerodivergence, it’s anything that makes a person different. And judging is what humans do. All humans have a drive to be part of an exclusive group. Judging is how they make that happen. So it really has nothing to do with autism.

      NTs are judgey as fuck

      🤔

      Judging such a large diverse group as if they’re one thing is a strange type of bigotry.

      I have generally found autistic people to be way more judgey than their NT counterparts. You’re always better off telling so people understand you have a condition and aren’t just choosing paths of increased resistance.
