[quote=Anonymous]There’s a Reddit thread about this (I can’t share but you can google) and someone in it described it well ‘ I think maybe a contributing factor is that its become big with gen z and alpha to label normal human quirks as autistic and there's videos all over tiktok listing 'traits' of autism that again are just normal quirks. Its also become very socially acceptable to label your friends as autistic based on these things. I'm gen z and see it literally all the time. So in some circles now calling yourself and others autistic is like half part of fitting in socially, half considered funny and a meme. A lot of these kids probably believe that they and all their friends are autistic based on very little (absolutely nothing against well considered self dx but I think this is a different thing)’[/quote]
